Presumably. If you're cooking them in water that is. But then again, if noodles are plumper when cooked it would be a different ratio. Maybe try search another brand with similar calorie per serving counts?

YAY! It's good to see my weight loss goal is among the average! And I weighed today and I am three pounds down already! 3 down, 40 to go!

I kinda have this, but I also (and more annoyingly) have a friend/ boss that "just wants me to eat more". O_O I mean, what am I supposed to do with that?! She knows I'm trying to lose weight and nags me when I don't eat enough for her definitions of meals. UGH. Mostly, my other friends are okay. My last boss was jealous,…

^ Agreed! It's in the same mindset people use Jenny Craig or Weight Watchers - why pay money for something you can do for free? If you need the support, that's why MFP is here! :)

To keep myself sane, once a week - every Sunday. I will "spot check" if I am feeling nervous usually on Wednesdays or somewhere in between.

I graduated from college spring of '10, but I am 23. 5'5 and currently at 222 from a shaming 247. Feel free to add me too!

Treadmill. It's my base exercise and perfect for any and all times of the month. ;)

Wow, this is so good to know! Thank you so much, ladies!!

Oh... haha... I know how that is... *eyeroll at the insanity that is film*
-
I was a creative writing major. So naturally I ended up in film. I just got out of a long-standing office intern for a film production company and now am working as a freelance casting assistant. :happy:

I got a BIKE! Okay, so it's a very cute and stylish bike. It's pink and white with fenders, but it does have seven speeds! Okay, so I admit I haven't ridden a bike since I was about 8 and I was kinda bad at it then (I could get on, ride, but stopping was something I never quite grasped) but I am determined to do it. My…

Oh....:sick: that is so awkward...

Yes. Absolutely. I hate guessing on stuff like that. I think ALL restaurants should. Even non-chain places.
-
Wow! Thanks guys!! I mean I have doctor's appts at times, but at clinics (usually when I need a flu prescription) - so all my little check ups are done there. My blood pressure has always been great (thank the steady use of the treadmill since I was 13 - no really!) as for thyroid, etc. my mom has all of those problems…

Some kind of dessert. Most likely cookies.

This isn't scientific or anything, but it's a suggestion that has worked for me (and still is). For a day (or two) ignore your diet. Go out to eat with friends, just DON'T think about it. Yeah, I usually gain like a pound or two back in food weight, but it kinda jump starts your body, so when you go back to eating less,…

I've actually been wondering this for some time! I'm finding myself more aware of clothing (now that they have begun to shrink a bit) and I am very glad to see this posted! I would guess that it's a mental acceptance of everything. I feel like shopping will be a pain when I drag five different sizes to a dressing room, but…

I am with you. Not big on breakfast. However, I try to eat something. I usually grab a banana and a Starbucks Double Shot. It's small, but there is espresso involved. LOVE IT. Some of my friends argue "that isn't breakfast" but hey, to each their own!

Well, I haven't lost over 100 lbs *YET* but I am certainly planning on doing it! I've lost 18 so far and have about 110 to go! I can't answer your staying motivated question, cause I am wondering the same thing myself! But I firmly believe it CAN and WILL be done! You can friend me if you like! :)

I did it. Being anorexic isn't just about being bone-skinny. I was overweight, but consuming less than 500 calories a day. I was dizzy, always freezing, had wicked heartburn and deep black dark circles beneath my eyes. And yet I was overweight. And more than that, it's a mindset, a way of thinking. An obsessive, crazed…
