stone cold. i love it.

question: do you only binge on high glycemic or sugary things? low carb really helped my binging (which, granted, was really only occasional, but was still a struggle for me) because i no longer crave those kinds of foods.

my first bikini and a tattoo. maybe a massage because i haven't had one since forever ago, and now i'm too embarrassed to let someone else massage me.

love you for that. <3 it's awesome to see people being inclusive and not pinholing one body type into a ridiculous definition of femininity.

trolls smell weird. don't sniff them! :<

wow, 220 lbs.? may i ask how tall you are? you look incredibly fit and thin at that weight! looking at your pictures, i would have guessed 160-170.

stacking's the way to go, bro! it'll taste just like gatorade.

my suggestion, from a low carber, since you didn't plan ahead: 1. eat a moderate portion of the pasta your mom prepared. 2. thank her for the badass meal. my suggestion to you if you're looking into low carb for a weight loss solution: 1. start planning ahead.

a couple of suggestions. your mileage may vary. - carry a backpack around with you with moist towels and a clean cloth. wipe the problem areas down with the towels, then dry off really well in the bathroom. - make sure all of your clothes are breathable. - organic apple cider vinegar works wonders on yeast, oddly enough.…

you guys have wickedly similar user pictures!

i gave it up last week because i suspect it's been the culprit in my breakouts. i miss it. so much.

slightly above room temperature in the morning. cold when i sip on it at work throughout the day. tepid during workouts. i drink a half gallon to two gallons per day. it depends on the heat and how i feel.

milk is, yeah, probably out, but it really depends on how few carbs you need to go into ketosis. some people can go into ketosis eating under 50 per day. i have to stay under 20, so milk isn't an option for me. be careful with dairy in general, but small amounts of cheese are generally okay.

have you looked into the possibility of body dysmorphic disorder? you mention that you had disordered eating, and BDD can often be co-morbid with an eating disorder, OCD, or depression. there is a component of bdd that renders you incapable of being objective about yourself, and for understanding when your body is…

my initial thoughts were, "i thought this is for success stories." my secondary thoughts were, "i suppose people didn't understand the point of the post." then i realized what was happening and my mind was blown.

haha, yep. that's the first thing i thought too. i've been in the introduction phase of "atkins," or something pretty close to it, for only a week now, and i have a lot more energy. i disagree with the original sentiment that grains are an inessential food group for everyone, but the lack of them in my diet has certainly…
