  • My cravings the week before are absolutely crazy and I'm really worn down then too :( I try to stock up on fruit and vegetables so that even if I can't eat what I want I can still eat something. I can always go to town on a boatload of carrots while imagining the thai take out of super greasy fare my hormones are screaming…
  • Some of the drink nutrition info gets goofy when you try and change the default in their database. LIke someone above mentioned the sugars are listed as 21/unsweetened, 20/sweetened so I'm on the database mistake side of the fence.
  • Make sure you're eating! You're 6' 3" you're going to be eating more than the average 5'5" girl! You'll also burn a lot more calories just going about your day to day life. (I'm 6' and it's taken me awhile to realize that I just need to eat a little more) Did you eat a lot of fruit and veggies before? Maybe you're bloating…
  • What's the difference between roast pork and pea soup?? -Anyone can roast a pork...
  • This is the big part for me. I'm reasonably proportioned and I'll be feeling really good until I see myself with a group of women shorter than me and it can knock the wind out of my sails even when I was feeling pretty good before. I guess that I forget that I'm not just taller but so much freaking bigger, wider etc., than…
  • ^^^^^^^ This is what's currently depressing me. I've hit an age where it feels like I have to justify why I haven't been married. And that the reason better be a good one! It can feel like a strike against you sometimes.
  • Quickest turn off ever.
  • Love my food processor! I make salsas and hummus with it pretty regularly. I also love eating raw veggies when I can easily and quickly shred them up with it. Same goes for cabbage and lettuce, I use a slicing disk on those. Lately, I'll use the grating disk on whatever veggies I have around (radishes, a seeded cucumber,…
  • Hi! I'm 5'11" and have been stuck at 223 for the past month. I've lost about 45 pounds, 30 since I joined here in February. I have a before picture in my profile pics, it's the one in the striped skirt. Everything else on there is recent.
  • It's so friggin' frustrating. Old Navy, Gap and Ann Taylor Loft are all huge offenders. Though I find Gap to just be frustratingly inconsistent. In the same size pant at Gap I run the gamut of not being able to get them up my legs to not being able to keep them up once they're on. The difference in sizing between Ann…
  • Once a week? I'm more like once a month. It's bad! Along with the not wearing much around the house, I never close the bathroom door. I'm not a "do your business" with the door open type if there's anyone else in the house but, it still seems foreign closing the door since I'm used to having the place to myself.

  • In the summer, I love cabbage! I eat it as coleslaw and just use any recipe but substitute mayo with greek yogurt. I can eat a huge bowlful for barely any calories and it's super filling!
  • @Jersey Pump - back shot. Backwards with the phone behind your head, hahaha, that's some ingenious photo work.
  • ^^^^^ This!!! There's something about that weird Diet Coke taste that I love! I used to be a total addict. But now I'm down to a few cans a month.
  • Chubby Girls represent! This is probably going to sound meaner than my intent, but enough with the am I skinny enough to be attractive mindset ladies! How many threads do we see from guys asking the same type of questions. Doesn't matter your size, you are worthy. End Rant.
  • 1. I've never had a cavity. 2. I knew I wanted to be a classical musician when I was 4 years old, never doubted it. 3. Large bodies of water (lakes/oceans) feel like home. Cant even describe their pull. 4. Sunlight makes me sneeze 5. Due to my name, when people meet me on paper they usually assume I'm a guy.
  • Roast a head of garlic and squeeze the "innards" from the cloves into any basic hummus recipe. So Good!
  • I'm just a hair under 6' so I'm well versed in the tall girl dating laments. In a perfect world I'd love to be with a guy a few inches taller than me and not be the same/more weight than him. The reality is I often date guys my height or a few inches shorter. I'm usually the heavier one. I have to remember that if there's…
  • So many things. But pictures never lie. 1. November 2010 - I went to Egypt and the pictures with me in them are horrifying. I took the trip of a lifetime and get sick just looking at any of the pics that I'm in from the trip. 2. June 2011 - 15 lbs heavier. Pictures from an outing where my head was starting to look small in…
  • Congratulations! You look like a completely different person.
  • Julie, I like your style! I've got Avett Bros, Mumfod and Sons, The Head and The Heart and The Decemberists all on heavy rotation tonight.
  • I have nothing against intelligence, I think many people look for it in a date. It's how people choose to show their intelligence that can be a real turn off. If someone is constantly trying to show you that they're smarter than you or just plain condescending then it's goodbye!
  • Yes! I get these fairly often. I've even had mornings where I think, "Wow, you really need to watch it today with the food since you binged on junk yesterday", then I remember that it didn't actually happen, it was just a dream. hahaha!
  • I'd split the difference. My mapmyrun readings are super low, especially since the app update. My heart rate monitor gives me readings closer to MFP but MFP numbers are high for a lot of people. If you're worried about it, go with the lower the number since it's probably better to err on the low side when counting…
  • In college I tried to be all smooth and move to the side of the sidewalk to let two good looking guys run by. I tripped and tried to stop my fall (didn't want to look uncool in front of the guys), couldn't stop myself and ended up stumbling/flailing straight into rush hour. Landed flat on my a** in the middle of the road,…
  • Not so much a type but always 15-20 years older. There's nothing wrong with that but what does a girl gotta do to attract someone in my same age bracket?
  • I'm a teacher. Elem/middle school band director. Also a part time classical musician but I rarely get paid for that :-(
  • Meryl Streep. I don't usually see it. But when caught with a certain expression at the right angle, it's definitely there.
