And milk, not melk.

Happy Birthday! You seem alright based on some of the posts I've seen. But really, even if not, mean people get birthdays too. :smile:

I like that even though you are naturally lean you are still working to maintain/improve your overall health.

^ This. Thank you Douglas Adams.

I have two tattoos. My dad doesn't like tattoos in general, but he's okay with mine. The first reason is that I'm an adult and I made a decision to get them. The second is I was able to explain my reasoning behind the two I have. The first one is a Celtic knot standing for friendship, love and fidelity. The second is a…

It is. And I want it! Along with a lot of the rest on this thread....

YUM!! (I love Thai food). Coconut shrimp

I blame myself for my weight gain. Sure, there are a lot of reasons why it happened. I work full time (3rd shift) and go to college full time. Between actual classes, homework and work there wasn't a whole lot of extra time. However, I still could have cooked or at least found healthy ways to eat. I didn't. I'm now dealing…

Any of the following (in no particular order) Pizza Wings Beer Wine Chocolate How about all food consumed during football season?

Three things. 1) Skinny Cow is delicious. 2) They make Snickerdoodle sandwiches? I must find them! 3) The Talenti gelato is AMAZING. My only problem is other people eating it before I get it.

Unless they are planning on executing her immediately (which they won't because of the way the legal system is designed) then it is way more expensive to keep her on death row than it is to have her in general population. I think they should do with her what they did with Dahmer. Put her in general population. Give her a…

We've all been there (that's why we're here in the first place). Optimism is a much better way of looking at things than pessimism. Plus, in weight loss the small steps lead to life changes so you keep it off.
-
Why thank you! I've gotten some weird looks from others about it, but I figure if it helps keep me motivated and doesn't hurt anyone...
-
Exactly! I started out basically needing (according to my doctor) to lose the weight of an Olsen twin. I have a little picture on my home computer of one and I erase out the proportion of the Olsen twin I've lost. It's a nice visual and oddly satisfying.
-
The way I see it is any weight loss is still weight loss. Be proud of it! Celebrate it! I still smile even if I lose a half a pound because it's a half a pound closer to my goal.
-
Probably both. We're supposed to be supportive of every life choice and not notice typos. :happy:
-
I realize it's been a while since I've dated (been too busy with college and working) but "idk" should never be a valid answer to that question. But maybe things have changed that drastically and I'm just hosed.
-
Good Lord, the abs/chest/arms combo.
-
Genius!! :smile: I'm still not going to do it. I have enough problems with my ankles and knee already.
-
Best and yet worse at the same time: "If you'd looked like that when we dated I wouldn't have broken up with you."
-
Smile, eyes and arms.

I wish. My kindergarten art teach gave me a set of watercolors and a print of van Gogh's Starry Night and told me to copy it. Needless to say it didn't work. So I gave up on art. Yours are lovely though (admittedly the eye one is a little creepy).

No alcohol for the guests but the wedding party got to drink. A reception with a huge dance floor but no music. The bride just handed the flowers to her sister instead of doing the traditional toss because she wanted her sister to get married and "didn't want to chance someone else getting it".

Congrats!! You look amazing!! I just hit (basically) 35 pounds at last check. I don't see as much of a difference as you, but here's hoping it will come!
-
I think a lot of it is obviously culture based. Since starting wtih MFP I've been paying more attention to what's on the shelves and even on commercials than I ever did before. Why are there cookies coming with frozen pizza now? Carrabba's has a special running where for $13 you get not just one plate of their pasta…
-
Agreed. I work nights and we'd buy pizza, wings or fast food burgers. Realistically I knew that what I was doing was not healthy and was ultimately not going to make me happy. However, it tasted so good that I told myself it didn't matter. I'm so glad I got on here and have started to use my willpower again. Not that I…

I'm starting to lose there...part of is thrilled to finally not be a F anymore. However, at the same time, until I lose from my belly I like that they make me look more in proportion. I'll be looking forward to having better posture again once they're gone. :laugh:
-
Again, thank you! My last day of class in 8/11, so I'm really just needing to find something I can do at home between now and then. The "Be Your Own Gym" book will be on it's way to my house as soon as Amazon can work on it. I've been doing some Tai Chi for stress release but I wouldn't consider that a workout by any…
-
Thanks guys. I'm sure you're all right. Patience has never been my strong suit to begin with, so expecting too much too soon would not be out of character. I do need to start adding in some strength training, it's just the figuring out how to start, where to start and honestly when I have the time to start. Not making…
