I definitely appreciate the support, everyone, but I still feel sure I shouldn't go yet until I get this cleared up first. Everyone's got their reasons~!

Have you tried lighting candles throughout the day? I've heard that candles that smell nummy actually help to suppress your appetite.

Omg, I think I just might love the man who posted this. What is this feeling within the cavity of my chest? I'd also like to add that there's really no use "discussing" anything with some of the people here. They are literally too stupid to insult. First the OP, then someone getting upset and arguing with people who he…

I'm just waiting because if school turns out to be more stressful than I expect, I want to wait until I'm at least most of the way down to my goal so it won't muck anything up for me! I doubt it could be as bad as my job was, but I just want to take the precaution. <3.

I have nothing against real milk, but OMG COCONUT MILK YOGURT?!?! I must find some.

Myself, I'm a slow and dainty eater. The reason it's said that people who eat more slowly and take smaller bites are thinner is because they generally eat smaller portions. The reason for that is a little complicated to explain, but I'll make an effort -- whichever rate you eat, fast or slow, your stomach becomes full…

I'm actually pescatarian (think vegetarian diet + fish), and I haven't yet reaped any weight loss from it (my weight was due more to work anxiety rather than diet, so only now that I've been away from that job for a month is my weight starting to drop), but my overall health is very good and I feel more energetic than…

This already seems like a popular topic, but *bump*. I'm loving all the commentary and really learning a lot, plus it's really cool to hear from people from both sides who are losing weight in their own way. If I begin tracking my exercise, I may try eating back calories, but for now, I'm just going to guess how much to…

I'm gross because I'm currently heavier than my start weight and have been for several weeks. =(.

I feel you, man.

The last time I was sick was... I think fall of last year, I had the flu. Before that, maybe back when I had swine flu in high school. I don't get sick often, and it's usually not too detrimental when I do get sick, but this has been nearly all my life. Oh, and I was wrong about the swine flu thing. I had tonsillitis two…

Ohmigawsh, I'm so jealous! I think you're doing great. It's natural to be a little disappointed when you don't do as well as you have been, but you're still doing pretty awesome!

No, it's not like that. I mean, yeah, I see your point about asking that question, but I'm focused on specifically the people who are saying, "GASP YOU DON'T WANT MUSCLE?!" I understand if someone is saying, "You don't need to worry too much about that anyway," but I'm talking about the people who are only here to say,…

Why do people keep asking the original poster, "You don't want muscle? Are you sure? You sound crazy." Let them want they what they want, damn. If they don't want muscle, instead of freaking out about it, you can just offer advice, or let them know, as some did, things like, "You can't really spot reduce." Can you imagine…

Funny story, when I started telling this story to my boyfriend and mentioned "my Cherokee neighbor", he says, "Oh, that guy on the balcony? He's cool! I like him." I just told him, "You're about to like him a *lot* less." After telling him what happened, he says, "Okay, tomorrow, I'm coming over, I'm knocking on his door,…

Also, what an awesome, witty response! x3.

D'aww, thanks, everyone. You all sound like sweeties. Honestly, the guy was a total creeper (which figures, 'cause he lives in the same apartment complex as I do, and all these people are on drugs or act like sexual predators). It's a long story that took eleven minutes to explain on YouTube, but I'll sum it up briefly…

We can be friends... but only if it's cool if I tell you that you look like Sheldon from The Big Bang Theory, and that makes me smile. =3. Edit: Never mind, you only look like him in your thumbnail, but it still makes me smile.

Thank you everyone for your support (or your honesty in your opposition), but I will no longer be replying to this post. This post is not about debating any opinions, but simply asking a favor. If you're up for it, thanks! If not, I'm not hurt over it. If you want to keep debating over it, then whatever, I can't make you…

No, I'm not sure whether it's in the main post, but it is in a few posts replying to others. I'm not sure if you realize this, but the point of a petition is to show said decision maker that people back this up. Whether I speak to the chief of police, the mayor, or anyone else, I don't want them to think I'm only one…

You're absolutely fine if you don't want to sign it. However, I am still going to correct you that this *is a recent change*. Why is no one getting that? One more time. THIS IS A RECENT CHANGE IN THIS DEPARTMENT.

When he went in to interview with the corporal, they had a good chat, and he eventually said to the officer, "I've gotta show you something though," and revealed the tattoo on his arm. The corporal was very upset and told him that he was very, very sorry he couldn't hire him even though he was ideal for the position --…

He has! =). And he's qualified with all of them. They can't hire him until a position opens up, but when one does, if he's next in line, he'll get the job. ^~^. Like I mentioned before though, this petition isn't just about him. Even if he gets a job with another department, I'm still going to pursue this petition for…

That's the problem. None of them are given the *option* to cover it up, even if it's totally capable of being covered. I could understand if they wanted it hidden, but they don't want their new hires to have it *at all*.

No, the current chief of police has been the chief of police for several years.

But what better way to challenge that negative stigma? Again, again, again -- there are already cops who have tattoos here *in that police department*. If they're so concerned about their image, it's already less-than-conservative, in that case.

Yeah. Troll.

No, not really. You shouldn't allow racist tattoos or, as was mentioned earlier, something like tattoos of vaginas. And you're right, for the most part, that all tatted folk would have to have a shot, and that's how it should be. People have the right to express themselves in a non-offensive, non-threatening way, and still…

We're talking one tattoo, man. A small tattoo on the forearm. There are officers here who have tattoos on their necks.

Thanks everyone for your support, and thanks for your consideration anyway if you haven't. Even though I don't really see a reason not to support it, I would never ask anyone to fake support for something they're against, so it's fine. =). I do want to address a few issues though. No, I totally understand your concern, so…
