So close! Not married- but food blogger is on the list of things to be when I grow up! :) - You- aspiring model or fashion designer.

Happy mom, maybe she works in a technical or medical field.

Least favorite is onions. I'm just not an onion person. BEST topping? Bacon. No question.

Great article!

I really don't muse all that much.

WOO HOO KACY!!!

You be you. There are men out there who have their preferences- and that has nothing to do with you personally. Attraction is what it is. There are guys out there who love a curvy woman, and some who prefer a more athletic type- but they're all out there. What matters more is that you don't let anyone determine your…

Dragonwolf - GREAT article. Thanks for that.

My advice is tread lightly. Some "splurge" foods can be intense trigger foods. That being said, all things in moderation. If you have a hard and fast rule about wheat, don't break it. Wheat can really do a number on you. Otherwise, one nice meal, or a glass of wine is not going to undo all of the good work you've put in…

I hadn't thought of having avocado oil with salad- YUM. Will have to try.

You totally can. The sesame oil is for flavor- so subbing with walnut may just be a little nuttier. And yum. Totally trying this recipe.

This is definitely my favorite place to be on MFP. <3

Have you looked into the Food Depot? I know in some cases you can go and pick up produce and healthy stuff- you should look into it. http://www.thefooddepot.org/ I live in NM- I feel you. I know it's hard. Keep your head up.

Yes! Absolutely!

MUST make this ASAP. Thanks for the recipe!!

Pocahontas :) That hair! So gorgeous.

I am grateful for my circle of friends - I don't know what I would do without them!!

Most likely to win the sexybeast award.

Easy: Berries- or a piece of dark chocolate. Not so easy: chia pudding with coconut milk and vanilla. This needs to "set" overnight so the chia seeds gel- but it's worth it. I also will take an apple and dice it up, and stick in the mircrowave w. some butter, cinnamon and vanilla. Top with nuts. Delish.

So-- firmly believing that you can't effectively change something you hate- loving yourself in your current state, (fat, chubby, thick, etc) can be an incredible catalyst for change. The article at least covers the first part. You SHOULD love yourself. You should be confident and feel gorgeous and not limit yourself. If…
