  • Ditto... I've been with mine for a year and a half.
  • I've fallen into this category. I can't eat now when I am stressed. It ruins my appetite, I get sick. I'm just realizing it now from tracking my food. I used to be the other way, a huge over eater, but now that I have put so much work into losing weight I freak out and don't want to stress eat it back so I shut down and…
  • I made this the other day, it was a variation on a mexican salad I make, but I realized I was out of black beans... I think the quinoa sub was healthier than the beans, though. 1 cup cooked quinoa 1.5 cups frozen corn, defrosted 1 jalapeno, chopped and seeded approx. 1 - 1.5 cups of grape tomatoes halved or quartered 1…
  • I am no expert, but the info I've read is 40% carbs, 30% protein, 30% fat. I would think that you'd need more protein since you're building muscle. There is a group on here called Eat More to Weigh Less (EM2WL) ... you could peruse that group or those forum posts to find more info.
  • I totally hear you... putting yourself first as your goal or motivation to get in shape (ie. not to lose baby weight, or get into a wedding dress, or look good for a wedding is super tough! It's taken me a really long time to lose all this weight, and I really struggle with my self image. Some days I feel like I look worse…
  • I went through this about 5 years ago... Although I started to lose weight at the end of our relationship, despite being completely miserable in it. Well at first it was good, then it was bad, then I was miserable, and then I just couldn't take it anymore, but didn't think I could end the relationship. I was so anxious at…
  • 28! Add me! I am always looking for more friends!
  • It's my fav. I've rented for 4 of the last 8 weddings I went to. All 8 weddings were in the span of a year and with facebook showing pics of everything to all your friends it's awesome to be able to not wear the same DESIGNER dress at the similar price to what I'd spend on buying a dress I'll only wear once. It's also…
  • renttherunway.com. i wish i could give you my code, so we'd both save $20, but that's against the rules. still i wholeheartedly push rent the runway on anyone and everyone. it's amazing.
  • Basics from the juniors department are way cheaper than basics in womens... obviously I don't wear the trashy graphic tees or embellished jeans, but when I want to save money I hit up the juniors department for certain items, because yes, now I fit into them.
  • I have daily cheat calories, so I don't go and binge too badly on the weekends. I let myself have something sugary and sweet... like I'll have four starbursts or amd oreo cookie (pretty awful overprocessed treats), but allowing my self 80 - 100 calories of a treat a day has always helped with binging when I am really…
  • ME ME ME!! I am 155 and would like to get to 130!
  • I can also shoot a rifle. My dad used to put my targets up in his toolbox at work. The guys always said his son was a pretty good shot... their mouths dropped when they found out it was my shot.
  • LOL, we obvi need to be besties!
  • I love sports. I have two fantasy football teams. Baseball has been my fav. for life, hands down. I love shoes and clothes and fashion. I can change a flat, change my oil, and drive stick. I love make up, doing my hair, and getting dressed up. I got a drill for Christmas one year because I asked for it. My fave designers…
  • I haven't found strawberry ice cream specifically. But you should look into coconut milk ice cream. It's amazingly flavorful. I am not sure if they have strawberry, but there are few brands at whole foods that might have it.
  • Part of it is you... Take care of yourself and respect yourself and the people around you will, too. Part of it is him. The people around you, that are supposed to love you and take care of you, should support you even when you're not at the top of your game... You're overweight and had a miscarraige. He should OBVIOUSLY…
  • hahaha. I hear ya... I'm a Bills fan in I live in Patriots country.
  • GO DAWGS!
  • Oh and for college GO DAWGS!
  • Buffalo Bills!! Mario Williams and a healthy Kyle Williams... plus a healthy Freddy Jackson. AFC East better be ready!!!
  • I have freckles EVERYWHERE. I hated them when I was little, but now I love them. They make me feel different and I think they're gorgeous. My hair is a dark auburn, so it's great combination. I could really care less if the guys love them or not, but my boyfriend does compliment me on them regularly (like I have control of…
  • Oh and green apple puckers...
  • hahahahaha, so true, but it's all I could afford in college. for me the REAL worst was goldschlager. disgusting.
  • When I realized I was 60 lbs heavier than my boyfriend at the time. And that I was eating the misery I felt from my relationship. I started losing weight, we ended the relationship, I kept losing weight... and never again will I let myself go back there.
  • First, congratulations on your weight loss, that is amazing!!! I am not sure what the best route is to help you lose more... sometimes the body needs a jolt, maybe add more strength training or cardio depending on what you do more of now. Or change up your diet a bit. Sometimes INCREASING your calories help. Anyway, I am…
  • I weighed in at 200 lbs at my first weight watchers meeting in Dec. 2008. I suspect I got a little higher than that in the previous months, but I had my fat moment at Thanksgiving when I ate so much I was actually in pain and then caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I was a tight 14, comfortable 16 on the bottom and…
  • Ugh I hate that ish, too! Like when someone compliments you and then stares at whatever your eating. I can control my portions and enjoy what I want, don't look at me like I'm still a fat leper. Anyway, these comments obviously mean they're just jealous. Such a weird feeling, having people be jealous of the way *I* look...
