Just, like, plain? Or do you put it on something?

Almonds are totes healthy. But when you have them all the time, you start to hate them.

^ <3 Well said.

And it's.. healthy? The topic just looks like a list of things we're told not to eat.

...because it's impossible for a man to prefer something that's not the cultural ideal?

A lot of people expect weight loss to magically give them body confidence. But, if you're in the practice of hating your body already, no amount of weight loss will change that. You have to change your outlook and start celebrating your body rather than deriding it, but that's the hardest thing in the world for practiced…

Haha it's like opening up prizes in a video game!

Instead of making this a "diet," why not find a level of food intake you can maintain, preferably for the rest of your life? That way, even though you'll lose weight slower initially, you'll have a bigger chance that you'll keep the weight off in the long run.

Wow, nice work.

1) Absolutely 2) Absolutely

That... that's absolutely genius.

I'm giving up all sweets - cake, ice cream, candy, the works. I've realized I really depend on sugary, fatty treats as a pick-me-up, and it's become impossible for me to resist them. I hate the idea of being dependent on substance, so I'm giving them up to practice refusing treats. Maybe after lent I'll have treats…

I'm 5'3", and my goal is 120ish. But I might want to make that a little higher in the end - I want to keep my legs thick. :)
