  • Wow that's awesome! Mad props
  • I've handled it different ways different years. A lot of my weight loss is through low carbing, so on years where I wanted to stay on target and not risk a "slip" I would stick to low carb items like turkey and deviled eggs. This year I actually did allow myself the treat on Thanksgiving but I handled it by only taking a…
  • I miss a lot of the ones other people have mentioned (Firefly, Buffy, Angel, Lie to me). I haven't seen this one listed yet, but I'm only 3 pages in at the moment: Dead Like Me!
  • I actually just buy VERY expensive, very high quality chocolate (mmm Godiva). It's so rich (and pricy) that I never really want more than 2 or 3 squares anyways, and usually will keep to just 1 as a treat.
  • I have a sweet tooth, pretty much anything along these lines: cake (especially the chantilly cake from Whole Foods) ice cream (especially gelato) and Godiva chocolate mmmmmm
  • I get Jewel Staite from Firefly a lot :). People say her personality reminds them of me too. Re: the original post. I once had some creepy guy on FB sending me a message saying I looked like some person I'd never heard of and when I googled the person, same thing, it was a porn star. Creepy!
  • While reading through these posts I realized I have a rather lot of these types of incidents and think I must be exceedingly unlucky. The following are my gross food stories: Was eating a peach and halfway through the peach saw something moving, looked down and a small caterpillar or worm was in it (did not get a good…
  • Congrats, that's amazing. You look great! Gives me hope too since I am the same height as you. I lost about 22 pounds before joining MFP. I started the Couch to 5k last Friday so it was really cool to see you mention it as well. I know I tried it several months ago and also could not run any longer than 30 seconds. This…
  • That's amazing! You look great, congrats :)
  • Happy birthday!! (from another May baby, tomorrow is mine :) ). Congrats and kudos to you for all your hard work! I hope to be where you are next year.
  • Omg I remember those! I used to get those, candy cigarettes, and the little squeeze tubes with ... syrupy stuff in them?! BLECH! I still have to admit I have a sweet tooth (it's my weakness) but anything pure sugar like the above is blech nowadays
  • You look amazing! Congrats!
  • You can feel free to add me if you'd like. I also have PCOS. I really sympathize with you because I probably started at the same place about 8 years ago. I hated exercise and ate horribly (all tv dinners and fast food!). When I got diagnosed with PCOS, I lost about 60+ pounds, but over the last few years I've been slipping…
  • I LOVE the sweet potato chips made by Food Should Taste Good. You have to make sure to get the actual sweet potato ones though and not the multi-grain ones :), I think they taste better and I try to stay away from grains as much as I can. Even the sweet potatoes are a little carby for me, but I eat them occasionally as a…
  • I forgot to add that sometimes for me it helps if I have buddies I can share food with. That way I can sometimes order the indulgence that I actually want, but just not go overboard on how much of it I eat. (Like order nachos and share it with the whole table, people are usually more than happy to share and then I just…
  • Ha! That's totally how I wrecked my own diet this weekend. Drank more than was wise, caved to a burger and a 1/3 of a slice of cheesecake and consumed waaaaaaaay more calories than was wise. Not too happy about the alcohol calories either to be honest. And I felt sick for a day and a half to pay for it. Definitely reminded…
  • Congrats on reaching your goal! As everyone else has said, you were already very pretty to begin with, but you look amazing now! It was funny, coming across this post really brightened my day. I ate horribly last night and was beating myself up over it. I'm the same height as you and just under the weight you started at,…
  • ^omg definitely this! Though just about everything on this thread is making me drool :). I feel like I'm reading food p0rn hehe.
  • That's amazing! Congrats, and good for you for sticking with it
  • I was an only child (later found out that I have an older brother and sister but still have never met them). In any case, I was also one of those kids that begged my parents for a little brother or sister. I always kind of resented the fact that I didn't have any siblings and even now as an adult I sometimes envy my…
  • As everyone else has said, it's pretty normal. And what you mention about overeating vs undereating, I actually go through the same thing usually! If I'm upset about something going on in my life or stressed or just having a bad day, I tend to turn to food for comfort. But I've found if the emotions are TOO overwhelmingly…
