first of all, doctors w/drinking problems is a reaaally bad example. that is a serious issue that can be extremely dangerous to patients. but on to my point, thank you for posting this! I too wonder about it. what annoys me most is when overweight doctors/nurses pass judgment on MY weight when I'm working my *kitten* off…

I also NEVER meet it. Don't worry about it as long as you're getting most of your sugars from fruits and other healthier choices.

gin and diet tonic with lime!!!!! it makes me soooo happy.

just did the math. you lost how much I weigh! wow

WTF, you're a completely different person!!! the only way I could recognize you was the eyebrows. I mean holy f***! You lost over 100 pounds in one year! That's absolutely amazing. and I can't even seem to lose 10 in one year. wow, compared to you, feel like a total failure. but at the same time, you're super inspiring!…

whoa! this is the first time I've realized adele is overweight. I don't really pay attention to music videos or anything visual about music stars to I usually have only seen adele's face. in all the shots of her they usually make her face the center of attention and somehow it usually appears thin. and, looking at pics,…

Amen!

i'm pretty sure that was just a joke =)

I've had periods of doing this with success and periods with failure. the hard thing about this is that it depends on how you're feeling in life in general. when I was happy and things seemed to be going all good and I had a busy routine, etc, I ate intuitively and healthily and ended up losing. but when the routine gets…

that's soo cute. I too have an awesome boyfriend. whenever I tell him of any of my insecurities (not be thin or pretty enough) he tells me he loves me just the way I am and the most important thing is me being happy with myself so he supports me with my goals. the only thing is he could do a better job of reminding me of…

yeah, I definitely let myself go crazy a little bit when I take a long break from the scale and see a big loss the next time I go on. I've done it a few times and have decided not to anymore. bad habit.

@ HeaderAutumn, It's ok. drinking has been an issue. I usually drink 2-4 drinks (made w/diet tonic or some non calorie add on) once/week or less. I'm afraid it might stall my weight loss but the past couple of weeks have been a bit worse. I've gone out w/my sorority more often than usual, trying to get closer to them and…

only 1 out of 10 times. my above the knee hair barely grows and comes in blond so it's not a big deal at all.

yeah. i've definitely calmed down. plus some online tv cheers me up =)

yeah, i've been to therapists four times now. but i don't have the right kind of insurance that i can afford it being a regular thing, it's always temporary, like 1-5 sessions. i go in, talk a lil, feel better just talking, life calms down and i don't really need to talk anymore, leave, and then the **** hits the fan again…

the heart attack picture won't show!

I've been feeling the exact same way lately. Sometimes I think about hurting myself but the thought always gives me chills. Once during highschool while chopping carrots I started crying and chopping at my hand (it was a dull knife thankfully) and the experience scared the living daylights out of me and my mother. I'm 20…

i wanna know what's wrong w/the dude (and the girl, of course). something way mental going on there. I feel like they're using each other. she's using him to have all the food he wants and he's using her maybe as a taste tester and to praise his food. I just imagine their whole relationship revolves around food.

geesh! you look friggin awesome! in both pictures, but you are definitely stronger and fiercer in the second! I'm about your weight, 163 right now. I'm happy with my weight as long as I keep up my fitness and get stronger and trimmer. In fact, I always think the number on the scale mocks my actual appearance, because I…

Eleanoreb- Do not do anything careless or stupid before the marathon and just do the best that I can. enewsome2- Stay under my calories every day and log religiously. Eat back half to all of my exercise calories. Keep a positive outlook and remember- I can do this! :) awyler- eat paleo 28 out of the 31 days in may.…

Totally in the same boat! I'm a college sorority girl afterall. And even though I don't party hard every weekend, (and I try not to because I know it's likely I'll drink or eat more than intended) I still like to relax w/a teensy buzz. What I'm doing is I only drink 1 or 2 nights a week and when I do I have 1-4 drinks a…

yup, lifting heavy w/p90x. used to lift heavy a couple years ago, stopped, and now starting up again. I love my muscles! (Schwarzenager voice) I just hope I thin out/get lean eventually.

that's true. I am definitely not fully dissatisfied. Thanks for the support!

definitely not apple because I'm apple and have extremely broad shoulders and you have nice narrow ones. also, you've got a cute waist that cinches nicely. I don't think banana because I envision that as not having so much of a defined waist. honestly, I think these labels mostly work if you're overweight, but you're not,…

I was also figuring out how to handle reintroducing heavy lifting to an already cardio intense workout regime a little while ago. This is what I came up with and it's been awesome for the last month! I think the biggest thing is that I combined my 3 lifting sessions into 2 (by the 3rd workout of the week I am just ready…

it bothers me slightly when I run (now) but a lot when I do calf raises or go up and, especially, down stairs. Last time I had it, a year ago, it was god awful painful to run. I don't want it to get that bad again! and it does feel like a pull right on my tendon. ice is helping gradually....

^^^ exactly this

this ALWAYS happens to me when I go low-carb (meaning eating mostly just salads and meat and fruit and maybe beans). It feels awful so I don't go low carb anymore. I eat healthy carbs like fruit, oatmeal, whole wheat stuff, beans, brown rice, quinoa, etc. As long as I'm eating this stuff as well as ample amounts of protein…

that's awesome. good idea and way better than nothing. how old is the little boy? maybe you could play tag with him or something too.

haha, that would work.
