I don't think it matters what answer you give these people. They are only asking you so they have the opportunity to give you their excuses. If you pulled a little gadget out of your pocket and said "Here, just carry this around in your pocket and the weight melts off" you'd STILL get an excuse! I have started countering…

I would like one I could customise with my own pictures on each side. I could remember what each picture was for

I happen to have overripe banana slices in the freezer (usually for smoothies), some cals left over and a hankering for icecream! It is really hot here. Thankyou!

:love: :drinker: :bigsmile:

falafel?

I put chilli in my food!

I think it would be a lot less confusing if everyone used Kilograms! Yay for the metric system!:drinker:

Hey thanks everyone who did and didn't comment :) I appreciate it :flowerforyou: When I read back my original topic, it seems like a bit of a rant. I seemed to answer or dismiss my own questions. I think I'm just sad I'm not losing 3 pounds a week now. But it's ok. I will get used to it. Have to remember the big picture,…

Next up, Big Bang Theory! You might even understand a lot of the trek references they make now!

House. Only the first 4 seasons.

"And you're getting a bit too judgemental."

Can I eat up to half of my exercise calories the day after the burn, and call it calorie cycling? Will it work? If you could consult your crystal/magic eight balls and let me know, thanks.

Well done for sticking with it and reaching out instead of quitting. Try shaking up your diet or your exercise routine if you want, or just keep on trucking. Your body will get with the program again.

woo!

Gold!

I tried to go a month without weighing before. I lasted 6 days. Now I can go 7 days easily but I get a bit miffed that the weight loss is a lot slower than it was. It's still good weight loss, just not as fast as in the beginning. When it gets too frustrating, I might go out to ten days or two weeks. If you can do it, I…

I have a couple of real life friends doing this weight loss thing with me. We make our competitions separate from the scale, like drinking the most water, doing the most sit ups in a week, doing the most minutes exercise. I think this way is better because we all have vastly different lifestyles and weight loss goals, and…

Quinoa is a non-grain grain. You can buy it in health food stores and use it all over the place. I just had some sprinkled in a salad (cooked first), sometimes I make fritters out of it (search Quinoa fritters in the forums for a recipe), you can make porridge out of it or use it as a smoothie booster. I also use it in…

I would like to publicly apologise to Ninerbuff for questioning his educational background.:blushing: Until now, my only knowledge of 'kinesiology' was a "alternative, holistic, 'medical' practice' similar to Reiki. :grumble: A friend took a course once and claimed she could cure me of obesity by having me tap the lower…

The "kinesiology" bit in your signature undermines everything you are saying. Which is unfortunate, because you speak some sense.

In a perfect world..........sigh...

Okra. Only ate it once as a child, that stuff was hairy snot! Mangoes smell and taste like vomit. Or my vomit smells like mangoes. Either way... and salmon. Yuck. Oily, chewy, grossness.

Hi! Welcome!

Yay! Cheap drunk! :drinker:

awww man! I have an awesome picture for this thread and I can't work out how to post it short of starting a flckr or photobucket account. If someone else wants to do it for me, it's here: http://hunter-gatherer.com/blog/there-no-such-thing-vegan

haha. great topic. I didn't think there was one and then I remembered history tells me VODKA is one such item. Not food persay, but still... And I can easily avoid that for a month!

you can buy chicken in a little can just like tuna, or a hard boiled egg is easy and cheap.

I put it down to reducing the thickness of the layer of blubber formerly insulating my body! I have seen others on here talk about feeling the cold more since losing weight, and I have noticed it too, which is awesome in the middle of an aussie summer. I think it's fine, but if you are worried, see your Dr!
