Budget your calories to allow for a movie treat. Life is too short to not eat popcorn at the movie theater. Don't deprive yourself of life's simple pleasures. :)

Way to go! You should be proud of yourself!

Maybe you should develop a thing called "not being a condescending, sarcastic, self-righteous, holier-than-thou, egotistical jerkhole" :)

I'm a junkfood junkie. Have been all my life. I love anything with sugar in it. Or salt. Or nacho cheese dust.

I love the PB oreos. My favorite kind is the golden birthday cake oreos. Those things are like crack. But at 150 calories for two small cookies, I try to keep my distance.

You guys are awesome! Excellent ideas!

Bump it up to 1500. If your body doesn't have enough fuel to get you through all that exercise, it can affect weight loss. Make sure you're always changing up your workout routine.Don't let your body get used to anything. It's only been 5 days. Give it time. You took longer than 5 days to put that weight on, it's not going…

I love the gum idea! Thanks, guys. My workplace is very casual, I'm allowed to chew gum, and have a beverage with me, and snack on the job (which is why it's been so easy to eat all the sweets!)...so these suggestions are great.

While I have considered this, it's not exactly an option. I'm in college. For a college student with no degree, jobs that pay well above minimum are extremely rare. If it came down to it, I'd choose being fat over finding a different job and being broke. Plus with no degree, I'd probably end up at a fast food place with…

Um yeah, not to be rude but... I really hope you were joking. That's not cool, my friend.

Only in America do we trample people for merchandise exactly one day after being thankful for what we already have.

That depends on if the database has already accounted for TDEE calories. If it hasn't, then it's still right... because in any given hour you're guaranteed to burn 150, and if you burn 500 one hour, 150 of them are already factored in because you would have burned them had you been running or not.

There is a maximum of 500 posts allowed on topics... be prepared for an extra 1000 minutes!!!

OMG it's about time someone posted this. Ugh. Don't want to get fat from Thanksgiving? Then don't stuff your face until you explode and then get your butt outside and walk! Not rocket science.

Pleasantville, Utah?

Turn on: Job, education, manners, class, old-fashioned moral values, hard worker, helps little old ladies cross the street, loves cats. Turn off: Smoking, tattoos, criminal record, drinker, saggy pants, piercings, disrespectful, no ambition, swearing, poor hygiene, and poor grammar.

I'm not going to measure out every last morsel of food, but I'm not going to go crazy either. I see nothing wrong with people choosing to not log that day, simply because life is about enjoying these occasions with friends and family and for goodness sakes it's one day a year. However I will be logging, or trying my best…

Honestly those <5 calories really won't make a difference unless you eat a bunch of them every day... but a lot of people just like to have a complete record of everything they put in their mouths, or they are just very thorough and meticulous about their calorie goals. Personally, I don't log it simply because I don't…

Ever had banana bread? Or banana nut muffins? No different than any other baked fruit :smile:

Bump!

OP you are my hero.

Basically this.

I'm not physically challenged, but my mom is, and she does water aerobics. Very low impact on the joints, and doesn't require a lot of strenuous activity especially on the lower body. You don't even need to pay for a class. Just find an indoor pool and get in the water and move around :)

Bump :)

P.S. Banana sizes will cause variation in number of Bites the recipe yields, but mine came out to 26 Bites.

I celebrated my birthday today and I ate every last morsel of a 900 calories slice of pumpkin cheesecake. I regret nothing! It's your birthday for cryin' out loud :smile:

She said she buys them ONCE IN A WHILE and omits the seasoning packet to reduce the sodium content. She acknowledged that the noodles were still bad. She barely eats them anymore but still buys them occasionally. Look at her diary, she doesn sit around loading up on junk. Everyone on here eats "junk" sometimes and LOOK…

Pecan pie with no pecans? Sounds like a bad dream :cry:

I'm not claiming that he stalked me (even though being followed is quite creepy and impolite) but he did harass me. The legal definition of harassment: Harassment (either harris-meant or huh-rass-meant) n. the act of systematic and/or continued unwanted and annoying actions of one party or a group, including threats and…
