  • Exactly. People who bully others are looking for a self-esteem boost. They wanted to be accepted by others, and when their peers respond positively to their bullying, then they feel good. If someone else makes it clear that their behavior isn't cool, then they've lost that sense of acceptance that they crave.
  • Wow, I'm shocked that they are in their 20's. I honestly thought these must be a bunch of 13 year old girls by the way they're acting. Clearly they have much deeper issues if, at 20+ years old, they find that behavior acceptable and entertaining. If they are acting that way, at an age where they should know better, then I…
  • We have a couple of bags of PB M&M's in the snack bin at work. I've had my eye on them for a couple days, but have been resisting the urg....and then as I'm sitting at my desk, I come across this post! :sad: They seriously are the best flavor. Wish I had more insight for you! Maybe try Amazon?
  • Nothing....just eat everything in moderation, or find healthier ways to prepare it. For example: french fries. I recieved a T-Fal acti-fry for my bridal shower. We cut up 3 potatoes, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and let it cook for 30-35 minutes. I enjoy the taste more than frozen fries because it's fresher, and it's…
  • I usually stick with wine or beer, so I know how many calories I'm consuming. You can eyeball how many ounces of wine are poured into a wine glass, and you know that approx 16oz of beer goes into a pint glass....but with hard liquor, you aren't exactly sure the ratio of liquor to soda, so it is a little harder to judge…
  • I'm with you on this. It's not so much of a judgement about what people put in their body; I simply cringe because a lot of the people I know eat these and actually believe that it's a good choice....they think they are making just as good of a choice as eating fruits and veggies. That's why it bugs me. If you are educated…
  • My current favorite playlist: Sweat - Snoop Dogg/David Guetta I'm a Machine - David Guetta My Body - Young the Giant Shots - Lil Jon/LMFAO Til I Collapse - Eminem Lose Yourself - Eminem Part of Me - Katy Perry Stronger - Kanye West Blow Me Away - Breaking Benjamin and for cooling down.... Breathe - Pink Floyd
  • I'm 5'2". It took about 20lbs to get from a size 8 to size 4. A 4 is a little tight, depending on the brand though...but a 6 is too big. I think about 5 more pounds and they'll fit much more comfortably. I usually wear junions sizes though...so I was at a 9, now I'm either a 5 or 7 depending on the brand. But I juniors…
  • I hear ya! I'm 5'2" and aim for 1200/day too. I get so much crisicism...not so much from people on this site, but just in general. You know what I've come to realize though? Most of the criticism that I get is from people who are overweight or not in shape and not trying to do anything about it. Those people clearly don't…
  • I'm in! I want to lose 10lbs by Christmas :)
  • I'm going to add you :) Losing weight is so much easier when you have a good support system. I'm new here, so I haven't really added many friends yet. :)
  • Have you taken Zumba classes? I'm considering getting Zumba for the Wii, but I'm worried it will be a waste of money. I do Zumba for 1 hour a couple times a week in a fitness class setting. I burn SOOOO many calories, and come out dripping in sweat (gross, I know). I'm just concerned that Zumba for the Wii won't give me…
  • Hi maddie! I'm new here too. I just joined today! :) Congrats on your 15lbs! What a great start :)
