:laugh: not sure which is more painful!!!!!

yeah cause i know what my pollen and such allergies feel like and this isnt it. i've got those going too but this was INTENSE!!!!!! D: it happened the day before yesterday and i thought it was the new dryer sheets my brother's girlfriend bought (she bought scented ones when we usually have "free and clear" ones) because i…

around 10 calories per minute for me. it really depends. its a lot though no matter what.

its not that healthy to eat that much of the same thing over and over and over and over again. you need to get some different nutrients in there. once or twice a week seems fine. here's a site that calculates accurately the full nutritional value of your custom subway sandwich:…

while it sounds interesting i would probably file it under the spam category if i hadnt read this first. how about posting it as a blog instead?

significant others are NOTORIOUS for being the most unhelpful person for a diet. you need to talk to him about this. tell him you're trying to lose weight and if he says "i think you look great the way you are" come back with "while thats sweet i'm not doing this for you. this is for me." and if he's a smart man he'll shut…

there's lots of belly dance videos on youtube. they're fun and if you get the faster ones they burn some pretty great calories! :) zumba's pretty awesome too. i have the dvd's. you really should try it i agree ^__^

my tape measure and i are back in love. that stupid scale is a JERK! >:c it doesnt deserve my devotion! :laugh:

personally while i try not to judge anyone i actually judge CLOSED diary people more. i REALLY wonder what they have to hide. i've got nothing to hide, if i have a crap food day, i have a crap food day. thats just how it goes :/ and i've even gotten more than one very sweet message from people who have found my food diary…

just because you arent losing weight doesnt mean you arent losing fat. look at this, it makes me feel much better about plateauing. http://www.sparkpeople.com/mypage_public_journal_individual.asp?blog_id=3926473&SPShared=TRUE and the holidays are hard, its hard to not eat and party and have fun with friends and family, in…

this is a great idea. also its ok to eat after you workout, you're even "supposed" to according to some people. but eating maybe a little more beforehand (like maybe 400 instead of 300) and a small snack in between the two should keep you from scarfing down everything in sight after you're done.

green tea pills (basically super concentrated green tea in a capsule) are natural and your body wont freak out and gain all the weight back if and when you stop taking them like what happens with most other diet pills. the one thing i can say is i've never taken them personally but some people have REALLY gross side…

thanks for the link *saves*

just because you drink a ton of water doesnt mean you arent dehydrated. sometimes bodies need way more than seems normal to be properly hydrated. that really seems like the only logical explination. maybe ask your doctor?

the drizzle really isnt supposed to be on there if there isnt any whipped cream. their hot drinks's are generally less calories then their fraps btw. (not always but for the most part)

white bread is not nutritious for you, dont eat it. but pita bread is also very calorie filled (wheat flour is FULL of calories). there are sandwich rounds (sometimes called thin buns) that are 100 calories per round. there is also low calorie bread out now (i think its about 35 calories per slice, but i cant seem to find…

the reason you're going to the bathroom so often is because you're body is flushing out all those toxins and sodium and crap that eating badly leaves in your body (and yes it takes a while for those to all leave) just plan accordingly knowing that you're gonna have to pee a bit more often but know that its a good sign :)…

there are LOTS of easy no hassle quick frozen foods that arent pure crap (they're still packaged so generally full of sodium but you can find ones that are lower) you may have to look a bit harder for them or spend a bit more for them or go to a health food store for them but trust me its worth it. i TOTALLY understand the…

welcome from the tx state capitol (yay Austin)! :) MFP is great and i'm sure you're gonna love it here and this site is gonna be great for you. sounds like you have a very healthy outlook on your weight loss journey! i wish you the best of luck! ^__^

"baby got back" mentions waffle house hashbrowns. makes me hungry every time. damn you sir mixalot! :laugh:

clear liquor and diet mixers are the best option. do you like gin and tonics? they make diet tonic and most bars have them. a gin and diet tonic is one of the lightest drinks around (its also my personal favorite)

you sound a LOT like my ex BF (we're still friends, its a long story that i wont go in to) but let me tell you as a person who has had many "jolly big men" as her friends, when they start getting less big and become just "jolly guys" there's no change in how i feel about them (except maybe a new great respect and pride for…

if its the site i'm thinking of its been reported before and it cant be shut down. sorry. its gross but sometimes there's nothing you can do about any of that stuff. :/

muffins :cry: real homemade giant muffins made by yours truely. *sigh* i miss baking them, i miss eating them. but no matter what i do i cant seem to find a way to make them LOW calorie. and thats beside the fact that i have a hard time eating just one. *sigh* i used to be known as the queen of muffins. :sad: and now i…

this is also a wonderful idea. i've loved dearly every school therapist (elementary, middle and high school) that ever helped me. they're amazing people and they WANT to help and are very good at it.

i've been in your daughter's place (sort of, i had different things i was emotional about but i was a good student, nice person etc. and was still depressed) and counceling helped immensely! i suggest if you can to maybe find her an art therapist, thats what i had and it was amazing. the things i didnt feel like i could…

unfortunately MFP cant decide what advertizes on their website since they use google ads. google decides for you based on your searches on google from your isp address and also based on your location. the location part is the killer. thats how i (a lifelong vegetarian), somehow ended up with an ad for whattaburger. because…

after they're gone why not throw the food away if you dont want it? it may seem like a waste but honestly if you're trying not to eat it there's no reason to keep it around. you can do this!

some will tell you yes and some will say no. personally i say yes. its still water. some people think only herbal tea should count because caffeine is a diuretic. but i still count black tea and green tea as well.

there are pretty much two schools on this. i say eat SOME of your exercise calories so it doesnt freak out your body that you have way too few calories for all the burning you're doing. but some people will tell you "EAT THEM ALL! RAWR! :explode:" and some other people will tell you "DONT EAT ANY OF THEM! RAWR! :explode: "…
