And also, the phrase is "tweaking" your diet, not "twerking." Two completely different things. :smokin:

I reduced my amount of bread just because it was the highest calorie portion of my diet I was willing to part with. I still have it if my calories allow. I had a sandwich on Sarah Lee bread today. Mmmm, sandwich...

Pound the chicken thinner or butterfly it (cut it in half thick-wise and open it like a book). Too thick a breast will turn out dry no matter how you cook it because it takes so log to cook the center.

The only thing I learned from this thread is that most people don't realize the phrase is "couldn't care less," not "could care less."

That's pretty much the whole concept of If It Fits Your Macros. Eat nutrient-dense food until you hit your macros, then fill the rest with whatever you like. This is apparently a print ad, like you might find in a magazine. Not too wordy for that application.

Just eat less of everything else and make it fit. I haven't gone a day without dessert since I started losing weight in May.

I love loli on other girls. It's not for me, but it looks so cute. :heart:

Starting with Series 1 is the best idea. It's the one that started in 2005 and starred Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper. That's a strong place to start as it's the first season of the revival. Another place you can start is Series 5, when Matt Smith became The Doctor. There's a Doctor between Eccleston and Smith…

You can usually omit cheeses from everything but macaroni and cheese. Neither my mother nor I really like cheese so we just don't use it when the recipe calls for it.

Loose skin doesn't usually happen with such a small goal on such young skin. I'm 5 years older than you and lost the same amount of weight, no loose skin.

Why do any of us have to meet anyone's arbitrary definition of "nerdy?" Can't we just identify however we want?

I just started lifting stuff today. I don't have any barbells or dumb bells, so I threw four of my Absolute Sandman collections into my Tater Tote-bag and a random other purse and started doing squats. Each one weighs 7.6lbs for a total of around 30lbs, which is perfect for someone as out of shape as me.

If you can't fit a piece of bread into your calorie count, try crackers. Ritz Roasted Vegetable crackers are 16 calories each and REALLY good.

When I was a kid, I never lamented that my body didn't look like Barbie's. I knew it was a toy, an abstraction of real life. I'd be more concerned with the extreme manipulations of living people we see on magazine covers and such, which are presented as being accurate.

First of all, the best dough you will ever make uses molasses instead of sugar. Seriously, follow this recipe because it's the best thing ever. http://www.larkandlola.com/2013/04/favorite-things-friday-no2-favorite.html I like fresh mozzarella, grapes, rosemary and goat cheese on my pizza.

To be cast in better roles in my local theater group, which is run by a former beauty queen who hates fat girls.

80% of your cholesterol levels come from your genetics. At your age, unless you're extremely overweight or the levels are dangerously high, you shouldn't have to worry about it yet. Just work on getting your weight down and it'll get better. You may need to take medicine when you're older regardless of what you do, but…

You do not need to cleanse if you have normally functioning kidneys, liver and digestive tract. You almost certainly do. If you need a mental marker, try something else like buying one pair of pants or a dress you want to fit into and use the date you bought it as the start. Don't punish yourself.

Ritz Roasted Vegetable crackers. 16 calories per cracker and a whole lot of flavor.

Sounds kind of delicious, actually. Lamb has an earthy taste I think would go great with the cumin and other spices.

You can use carbonated water to clean your battery, too. http://snopes.com/cokelore/acid.asp

Not nearly as much as regular soda, though. The acid doesn't do nearly as much damage as the sugars in regular soda. My brother switched from regular soda to stevia-sweetened soda four months before a dentist appointment and they were shocked at how much better his teeth were.

I don't like tuna, but a good spread I've found is Rondelé. It's a whipped cheese and fairly low calorie, I think 35 per tablespoon. And be sure to weigh it rather than just scooping it out; 12g is a lot more than one standard tablespoon.

This is unfortunately likely going to set you up for failure. Thinking you'll never get to have your favorite ice cream again/until you reach goal weight will just make you feel deprived and more likely to crave it and come back to it. Maybe make it the last time you eat a full serving or the last time you'll have it more…

I guess if you really, absolutely feel you must do this as a mental marker, try not eating or drinking anything but water for 24 hours. That seems to be the least damaging option. And that's really all you can hope for in a cleanse, to do as little damage as possible.
