I think I am "the face" but hey - I'm not bugging anyone, so leave me alone :P

Not sure if this has been posted, but THIS is Rubensesque: because it's a painting by Rubens.

If you are on 1lb a week loss, you can go over 500 calories a day without gaining. If it's half a pound, 250. If 1.5lb, 750. :)

When I was at the gym yesterday, a girl wearing extremely heavy perfume began exercising next to me. I was the ONLY person in the cardio room and there were machines that were literally identical that weren't next to me, but she apparently HAS to take the one next to me. I had to leave early because her perfume gave me a…

Yep, me. It's a sign, I think, that I'm working my body too hard and I need to take more rest days. If I go more than 8 or so days with no rest day, I'll start feeling run-down and get sick. I tend to work too hard - I love exercising :)

This. I've gotten comments from well-meaning friends telling me "don't lose weight too fast". I'm losing a pound a week and doing it the healthy way - don't worry! I know it's said with good intentions but it's still a bit confusing.

Check out http://pixie-cropped.tumblr.com/ - it has tons of great looking pixie and other short cuts. Here are a few from there I love:

And free slices of chocolate cake :(

Do you see a difference in my face?

Personally I think you should. Keep in mind that those 519 cal are all your body has to run on today. I try to eat the exercise calories back, leaving 100-200 for inaccuracies in exercise counting (machines tend to overestimate). If you feel full, drink something besides water or eat calorie-dense foods like nuts. Or…

With leggings or maybe tights, yes. Not with bare legs.

You feel so hot afterwards (temp wise) than you wear shorts home from the gym in Minnesota in winter.

Yep, me too :) in black with a purple case.

Melatonin! :)

I have the same problem. It seems like I can only see what's left to lose - where my body still has a bit of extra fat on it. Friends tell me they notice huge differences (especially friends I haven't seen in a few months) and my clothes definitely fit different, though I haven't gone shopping so I don't know if I've…

Height: 5'6" Highest: about 165 or so? I can't really remember. Current: 142ish Goal: 135 OR whatever I think looks best on me.

$0 As long as I am a student at my university (so, until spring 2014) My university Edit: I actually think I can go as an alum too. So, forever! :D

The Philosopher's Dog In Your Pants Um...

I've been on BC since June and didn't gain weight. I'm still on it and I haven't had a problem losing weight. From this thread it sounds like I'm lucky!

I've given blood once, this past October. I had tried 3 times before and been rejected all 3 - twice because my iron was too low and once because they couldn't find a vein. But it finally worked! I plan to give again as soon as they return to my university.

1. Would you date/marry a guy who weighed less than you? What would be the biggest discrepancy in size you would go/allow? Yes. One of my boyfriends was about the same weight or ~5lb less than me (he was about 150-155) - and 9" taller (5'6" vs. 6'3"). 2. Would you date/marry a guy who was shorter than you? What would be…

This. I started off on 1.5lb a week loss. But I couldn't do it very long. I bumped up to 1lb a week, which worked for a while. At the moment I'm maintaining, because losing weight while I'm taking classes is too stressful for me.

I'd be horribly sad if I did this. I love food and eating. I get great pleasure out of making myself food and indulging myself occasionally. So to take all of the taste out of it would be like turning myself colorblind.

Congrats! I like measuring, so that even when my weight remains stagnant I can see the changes. One HUGE NSV for me is being able to find rings in stores... even when I was barely overweight I had really wide fingers. Now few of my old rings fit anymore (at least not the ring fingers) but it's way easier to find new ones!

I experienced an event that gave me PTSD. It's now been more than 3 1/2 years and I still get triggered by certain things (unfortunately things that I see in every day life, especially in media). So I think about the event basically daily, whether I want to or not. I've gone to 2 school counselors and a psychologist and…

What's your activity level set at? If it's "sedentary" then count the cleaning/sex you've been counting; if it's active or lightly active, then I'd say don't count them - it'd already be figured in.

Is your water accurate? You drink no water?

You forgot the img tags :) I LOVE the blonde/pink hair!!

December got a lot of comments, many negative, especially from my conservative family. I have also had a blue peekaboo but since I didn't bleach my hair before that it wasn't really visible.
