  • I agree with everyone else don't minimize what you've lost! You've done well, congrats! btw that is a really noticeable 10 lbs, great job :)
  • that is amazing progress. Congrats to you
  • Happy Birthday!:flowerforyou: congrats! You've made amazing progress and look awesome :)
  • ^^I don't get how that is a thigh gap. Or i guess I don't get why having skinny legs gets a new name :laugh:
  • There is no estimate, it has to do with your hips and thighs. While people may have a thigh gap when they lose weight it depends on their bone structure/body type. Don't worry about it, it truly is silly. Work with the body type you have. :) Also, I just want you to know you are thin. I'm the same height but weigh 135 and…
  • Yeah, I actually find it disgusting. I don't know if you already went out with your friend. But I'd be the voice of dissension and say no don't do it. One ice cream won't make you gain a ton of weight (unless like me you binge when you have sweets. Sugar <3333) but if you're eating really healthy why throw it off. Also, I…
  • Prunes - I love most fruit but I've been snacking on these all the time. nature's own cinnamon raisin bread. - this is so good, I warm it up in the microwave. It's 80 cal a slice. food lion ice cream sandwich - they're 170 each. I'm slightly lactose intolerent but these barely bother me (which probably means the…
  • by the way op here are some articles that you may find interesting http://sfu.academia.edu/SimiKohli/Papers/72633/Use_of_BMI_and_waist_circumference_as_surrogates_of_body_fat_differs_by_ethnicity http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2009/06/090611142407.htm…
  • op I'd take the bmi chart with a grain of salt, I think it's great for general guidelines if you are on the extreme end of either spectrum, but i don't pay too much attention to it otherwise. :| That said I wouldn't exactly take those people's word as truth either. I think you should just continue to live your life in the…
  • Oh I am. I prefer manga to anime though. I have a bit of a short attention span. And it's much easier for me to get into reading then watching. Favorite anime are Fruits Basket, Darker than Black, 12 Kingdoms, and Code Geass. I'm slowly watching Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit currenty. (It's very good btw) Oh and Sailor…
  • I read about this last week. In the 1960s Dr Maxwell Maltz saw that it took an average of 21 days for amputees to adjust to the loss of their limb, so he surmised that it would take people 21 days to make a life change/form a habit. I read that it takes more like 60 days to start doing something without thinking. I think…
  • Some people like adding a little juice or frozen berries to their water. You could add a little lemon, lime or mint too. Cucumber + water is wonderful (similarly cucumbers + soda is love) :drinker: Maybe buy a good tea and use less sugar/honey/stevia. Chamomile isn't sweet but it tastes so good. Honey/lemon + chamomile is…
  • ^^^ lol, i want to try PB2 but trader joe's peanut butter dissapointed me so i'm scared. It's probably better to stick with what i love (smucker's natural crunchy) my twin loves them. :noway: I'm like no. But he said i brought the wrong brand so maybe that's it. But I'll never find out because they are dead to me. Never…
  • vegan hotdogs. omgosh no.:sick: I did not like them all, they made me want to cry when i ate them. The taste stayed with me way to long too. I had been wanting a hotdog so bad at the time and reviews said they were really good. Lies, all lies.
  • yeah, i think so. I'd probably stop eating the chips too.
  • I think that depends on what your unhealthy looked like. If your unhealthy was ramen every meal unhealthy is still cheaper then healthy. You have to take into account where you live as well. For example, where i live celery ranges from $1-2 for a stalk. In a low income neighborhood I was working in they sold celery for…
  • :laugh: I'm sure Just Dance counts, at least it is better then nothing. I googled and i found a video that talked about how to burn more while playing Just Dance http://www.fitnessblender.com/v/article-detail/How-Many-Calories-does-the-Wii-Just-Dance-Game-Burn/4h/ :flowerforyou: I have We Cheer 2 and by itself I don't…
  • maybe include the eight year old when you do exercises? I remember doing taebo with my mom sometimes. I thought it was fun. And I know an acquaintance(20) does insanity with her little sister(10). Cook your meals on sunday for the week. Or maybe just cook meals twice a week. That should free up some time. 30 Day Shread is…
  • see i think of sprinters or middle distance when i think of running. But I consider people that do long distance races runners too. So for me i guess distance plays a part. If I did a marathon at 6mph, I'd consider that running. But if I did a mile at 6mph, I'd consider that a jog because I could go faster. Oh and I don't…
  • I honestly believe it depends on the individual. For me running is about the length of the stride, the speed, how high my leg is ect. When i jog my leg isn't lifting all that high, my speed is slower, my strides aren't long. When i run all that changes.
  • this is the best! I love it. googles drinking movies to convert to exercise
  • thanks for sharing. I've seen the shirataki noodles in the store before/heard about them but never felt the need to buy them. I think i'll buy some to try the cookies. I eat unconsciously at sometimes/eat to eat which i'm trying to get away from so something that is only a few cals would be better.
