Pretty eyes!

I got one on Amazon that has been awesome, and it didn't cost an arm and a leg!! It's by "EatSmart" and I find it to be very accurate. I weighed myself multiple times and it gave me the exact same results. Then I put on some jeans and shoes, and it went up like .8 pounds. I love it! Just seach "eatsmart scale" on Amazon…

Mean :(

I cannot even articulate how awful these stories make me feel. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE don't give up. You go back to the gym and work hard. You buy yourself a damn bathing suit. Feel proud of who you are and what you have accomplished, because you are a strong woman.

Wow, I honestly thought it was more of a weight difference: you look great so far! Keep up the good work. I, too, have gained a little weight back during this summer (about 7 lbs), but this really encourages me to work harder and stay positive :)

I agree with your point: it is always better to encourage and uplift :)

This may not have been the point of your story, but I really hate it when people who are heavier than I am tell me: "YOU don't need to lose weight; I need to lose weight. I weigh (insert high number)!!" I'm relatively close to my goal, and no longer look overweight when I'm wearing clothes. (In my undies, jelly belly is…

Pensive

no

Ooh this is fun! Although I love drawing/painting and creative writing, I majored in Biomedical Science. I'm applying to vet school this year... We'll see how it goes! :)

This thread makes me sad. I've always wanted to have more fair skin, but I'm brown. And I live in Texas, where it's summer 8 months out of the year...

Wonderful! You look happy and confident! Way to go, you! :)

Sexy, muscular build :)

I see vanity as a gender-neutral thing. We're all a little bit vain :wink: My dad and I always compare muscles :) Needless to say, his are much more impressive despite the fact that he's 55 years old! Hahah :)

What?! No heels? Girl, they make my tush look firmer, so I love heels when I want the "formally fat girl" look. I don't want to be "casually fat". That's just unattractive. Formal is the way to go!! :laugh:

I'm not a guy, but I do find skinny girls super hot :) And medium-sized girls too. And slightly overweight girls too. Then I get jealous, so I get off my *kitten* and work out.

I have never in my life encountered anything like that! I cannot believe that anyone actually behaves that way :( I'm very sorry for how cruel people can be.

I agree with OP: the lower back is a lovely place of the body, and idea for some artistic decoration, but I've never seen a lower back tattoo that I totally loved :( I've seen tattoos that I totally love, but they always end up being on sides, shoulders and arms. I'm really not sure why it happens that way, though...

I think this too. People tell me how slim I look now, but it just makes me think: was I really that fat before? Also, guys pay more attention to me (which is nice), but compared to the ZERO attention that I used to get, all I can think is: was I really THAT unattractive before, to where no guys spoke to me? It's…

I think a lot of women interpret "feminism" as "man-hating". (And men shouldn't be hated. I know some wonderful men :smile: ) So, I think that's where the confusion comes in.

I know, I'm sorry, you posted before I had the chance to post, and so your post got sandwiched between "wickedcricket"s and mine... That was really confusing.

I am quite confused by this thread, but I just wanted to say to "wickedcricket" I love your ticker :)

I don't know how to make it to where my ticker appears when I post :(

I have always been frustrated at my large thighs/butt, and look forward to they day when they are not as large and squishy :) But on the plus side, my boyfriend looooves my booty :laugh:

It annoys me when couples call each other "babe".. :mad: Babe is the pig in the city, not your significant other.

Somebody once told me I looked like Angelina Jolie, and I was so confused.... I'm brown, with round cheeks! My friends always tell me I look like Disney's Pocahontas cartoon. I'll definitely take that one :)

I tremendously dislike the taste of egg yolks, so I usually just have the whites (yum!). You really shouldn't worry about cholesterol, etc... BUT if you're worried about the amount of calories in a wholel egg (it's like 70!), just have a 2:1 ratio of egg white to yolk. That is: if you eat 2 eggs, make one a whole egg, and…

Lipstick!

Just like everyone else has been saying, they don't realize how many calories they're consuming. Also, women will always diet. Forever and always. As a woman, it is part of our job description to honestly believe we are the fattest thing that has ever walked the Earth. It's science, dude. :wink:

Morose.
