44 and thank you for the reminder before I eat tonight. It'll make me stay on track lol.

Dating doesn't suck at all, it's a blast! I think when it sucks, it's time to stop and evaluate the type of man or woman you're choosing to date. Just stop and reevaluate yourself, not the other person. Best advice I ever heard...that most people like to pretend doesn't apply to them...."you attract what you are."

That's not logical. If you don't eat your calories, that's why you're hungry. It doesn't matter when you eat your calories in the long run as long as you eat them. Is it better to eat every few hours vs. one big meal? If it's working for you, sure. But either way you have to eat. You're hungry because your body is trying…

That is fantastic. So going to try this, loveeeeeeee blue cheese dressing.

I hate yogurt. But I've found one way to eat it (so far) that I love and could eat every day. Tzatziki sauce... Cucumber - no peel, shred raw, 380 g Extra Virgin Olive Oil, 1 Tbsp Chopped Garlic, 4.5 tsp Iodized Salt, 1.5 tsp (1.5g) Greek Nonfat Yogurt Plain, 1 container (4 cup (225g) Pepper, black, 1 tsp Feta Cheese…

If it fits within my calorie range I do it. If it doesn't fit, I make it fit with exercise. The only thing I think about before eating something.... am I going to be hungry later (wasted calories) and do I want to exercise that crap off. (over calories)

Committed enough not to ask that question.

I was just about to say I didn't see that either! A food scale will be a rude awakening to correct portion control. I thought I was guessing portions right from all my research (1 oz of cheese is 2 dice size BS) and was so way off it wasn't even funny. Definitely invest in one. You can do a search on the boards and see…

There are definitely more than one, but I figured people would post more if it was really important to them to share. :smile:

Can't believe so many people posted to it. I feel all special ha ha. But seriously, great advice guys!

Because hopefully it's a long-term life style change vs. a quick diet is my best guess, it's easier and more manageable. 1 lb of real weight a week is a lot and people don't realize it.

Exactly.

On the flip side, people are asking to be judged in a lot of posts and then get mad when people judge them. A- "I'm not losing weight, what am I doing wrong." B- "Well I looked at your diary, put the ho ho down." A- "You're being mean and judging." Random interloper-"Ignore B, they're just aholes, you're doing great A!"…

I basically completely agree with you. But I do try to say 'way to go' or something at times to let them know I care, I'm just busy. And I do wonder how many times you can write 'wtg' over and over on posts. It looks insincere, and I want people to know I'm actually reading their posts/diary, et.

I say enjoy a good vent and then get back on track. And maybe stop looking at his numbers? I feel ya' though. {{Hugs}}

Zero + Zero = me supremely happy . :flowerforyou:

Congrats!

I was in a rush and tired and hungry and was going to eat at McD's. I caught myself and ended up eating a much healthier meal. Small victory. :smile:

Hi I'm Nikki. My style is eclectic and depends on my mood. Some days hippie chick, others straight from wall street classy business. Mostly jeans and cute tops recently. Love a good coach bag, but I'm not really into shopping.

No points at all, it's her disrespecting the people here, and shows such low self-esteem. Sad.

Agreed. She's not skinny, but she's not fat. Yes she kinda looks like she has more weight than her frame/height calls for, but her toning is making up for that and looks very nice. Then again, it's photoshopped, let's be real.

More than a little! Great job and dedication!!!

I had a lot of doctor's appointments in a 5-6 week period. Routine stuff. Eye appt, mammogram, flu, etc. For each appointment no matter what they weighed you first. (seriously, for an eye exam??) Somewhere in the middle of it all I got sick of seeing my weight in 6 inch flashing numbers, and sick of making excuses not to…

It's called back-up. Your allowed to have more than one...just sayin'. :wink:

In my world that's a Non-Committed Friendly *kitten*.

I'm not with the "ask him what he's doing" advice. He's a booty call, who cares what he's doing? It doesn't even matter if you like him or vice versa, and you don't want to have to hold a conversation with him. You call him and stay come over. Any booty call understands that. If he doesn't, give him one more chance and be…

I feel ya'. I've found it's best to only bring it up to a few close people who genuinely want to know and are supportive. Others tend to be unknowing (and knowing!) jerks about it in some form or another.

Let them be offended. Seriously. They'll get over it and you only have to deal with their uncalled for childishness for a few more weeks right? You apparently want to eat with them, you've tried being nice and offering to cook, and you're doing your own shopping....there isn't anything much left for you to do or say to…

It's small that...."He'd also searched on <the internet> for women in our area - most of these people are escorts"? Wow. Really?
