I would like a twin. We can create a secret twin language. And communicate telepathically. I'm doing it wrong, aren't I? HT: 5'10" HW: 270 lbs CW: 185 lbs GW: 150 lbs Aaaand go!

TV On The Radio "Wolf Like Me" When I make workout play lists, I put it at the end so it pushes me to finish strong.

I have my "Treadmill Masochist" playlists on Spotify. Some favorites: 1. Florence + The Machine "Dog Days Are Over" 2. Cage the Elephant "Ain't No Rest for the Wicked" 3. Beastie Boys "Body Movin' (Fatboy Slim Remix)" 4. 3OH!3 "Starstrukk (f. Katy Perry)" 5. Kanye West "Stronger" 6. Foster the People "Don't Stop (Color On…

BAH! I'm going to have to get some epic workouts in this weekend.

I thrive on killing polite conversation with awkward silliness. That's a thing, right?

There are definitely worse comparisons than this!

I get Zooey Deschanel all. The. Time.

Oooh! Sounds fun! I'm in!

I have this lightening-looking scar on my forehead from Lord Voldemort. Wait, no. That was Harry Potter. All my scars are internal.

I like your mom. But I won't kiss her on the mouth.

You have to brine them (submerged in very salty water). For less than 4 pounds of chicken, you only need to let them brine for 1-2 hours. You can add herbs and spices (brown sugar, honey, garlic, pepper, lemon zest), if you want.

GAME OVER. CLOSE THIS BOARD. WE HAVE A WINNER.

I absolutely love Harry and the Hendersons. I've loved it ever since I was a little fat kid. Same goes with Willow. 1. The Room. The Room is absolutely awful but so, so great. 2. Joe Versus the Volcano. Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan before he grew ovaries and she got bad plastic surgery. 3. Caveman. Ringo Starr. As a cave man.…

Welcome! A step at a time. A day at a time. You can totally do this. :)

I get that all the time. It's totally the bangs. And the awkwardness. =/

Welp, it's been almost 10 years since hitting my high weight. It's a face I'd be happy to never see again.

I don't know if it's your friends wanting you to remain their fat friend, or their lack of understanding of how big of a life change this is. It's especially hard for those who have never struggled with their weight.

Sitcom = Situation Comedy. 1. Community 2. Seinfeld 3. Parks & Recreation 4. Scrubs 5. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia

"Exercise gives you a natural high." Yeah, that's great. Thanks for the chemicals. But that doesn't mean busting my *kitten* on an elliptical machine is my idea of a fan-friggin-tastic time.

I still eat the things I like, just make substitutions to make it better for me. Instead of beef tacos, I do chicken or turkey on a bed of greens. If I can't make substitutions, I just eat less of it, Seems to work so far.

The style is very Faulkner-esque. It takes a while to get past the construction of the book -- Each chapter being told with a different point of view. Sometimes the story doesn't movie in a linear fashion, either. You're not really getting a God's Eye view of the plot like with most novels; you have to piece it together.…

I think there's a "your mom" joke in here somewhere.

I hate resolutioners. (No, that's probably not a word.) But the people who join as a New Year's resolution and quit after 6 weeks. They take up all the machines. I know. I should be more encouraging. Whatever. Also, people who fart during Pilates class. I get the giggles. What can I say?

I graduated in 2003. I was 270 lbs. Now I'm 180. SUCCESS!

I try not to watch too much TV, but I do enjoy: Walking Dead Doctor Who Community Parks and Rec Game of Thrones Downton Abbey Curb Your Enthusiasm Aaand that's about it, really.

Memento Fight Club Reservoir Dogs A Clockwork Orange The Graduate Aaand now I want to watch each of these about a billion more times.

I get Zooey Deschanel ALL. THE. TIME. It's probably because I'm white. All white people look alike. (I can't back that up.)
