Crap, just ate at subway, I think it depends on what you put on the sandwich, I mean a meat ball sub is probably way worse than turkey ham with tons of veggies. My brother used to say "Don't even put oil on your sandwich, it's just like adding a layer of Crisco all over it! I also check out their nutritional info and the…

Yeah, Mexican. I don't see the Aussie but lol, okay! :tongue:

Hispanic but North American, in other words, Mexican! :flowerforyou:

Half-American Half-Mexican! :smile:

Actually no... :tongue:

Nope! :)

And me guys?

Native American and African American mixed?

United States or Russia

When I listen to Jazz music, lol...

Cool! I have some almonds at hand!

Sorry 'bout that, just wanted one I could save for myself...

My brother told me that the more fat you have the more calories you require in order to feed those fat cells, but of course, when you're at a deficit your body has to chomp on sources that are not calories you are already giving yourself by eating. So I'm planning to use my scale to see my maintenance and work from there!…

Well, you're right. I suppose it's because I used to weigh 122 and now I'm 128 but I don't look significantly different, but I know it's possible to be at that weight. So I'm not sure as to whether or not I should or need to lose more or I should gain muscle mass. However it seems like I've been getting great feedback!

I've confused people, but I meant to tone up, since the majority of people doing 30 DS are typically more toned than losing weight..

I eat my exercise calories back though...

Well, I definitely have some FAT, so there has to be some miscommunication here!

I was expecting to tone with 30 DS not lose weight, but I feel confused now.

No not you... But okay, so the minimum is like the 1,200 that MFP recommends?

I KNOW! I've been doing 1,200 + excercise cals for as long as I could remember, but I'm at a plateau and have been feeling helpless!

Okay, but I'm slightly afraid to eat more, I've always felt like it was counter intuitive, plus, since struggling an anorexia battle from last summer and winning I finally can eat 1,200 calories...and I don't know, I just can't handle thinking about eating more, I'm afraid I'm not working out hard enough.

You sound EXACTLY like an anorexic, I would know because I used to suffer the same thoughts and I starved myself just to get "perfection". Let me tell you, you DON'T want what I went through, I was dizzy, I suffered and for that I'm still hung up about every pound... the obsession... it's like being an alcoholic, you can…

Eat slower and you'll feel fuller when going through a craving think about what you truly want more, the health, a great body shape to go with it or not and then you'll see the true importance of sticking to your plan and make healthier choices. Also, have a day where you CAN eat those things but just not the same volume…

Thank you, reminds me of Seinfeld!

Nice!!! Let's keep it going! :)

I say enjoy yourself, just don't go way out of bounds. Besides, if you don't want to eat what they eat politely tell them you already can eat pizza and stuff in the United States and that you would rather try the fresh stuff over there. I'm sure they'll understand! Good luck with your trip... :flowerforyou:
