I'd say it's about 60% of my overeating. Maybe more. Thanks for the link.

You can't. You gotta "be the change you wanna see in the world."

Every day is day 1.

I'm nowhere near any of my goals, but the the research I've seen definitely indicate that waist is a better measure than BMI.

The only help I can offer is that ASAP and fitness are incompatible. The only other thing I can offer is if you are going to the gym and exercising more seriously, eat more protein.

What she said.

Cubicle monkey. Sedentary, but I have a fitbit that will tell MFP if I do more than sedentary activity.

I think people would say: "...I knew he was... a little bit... but DAYAM!" But they'd have to dig for it. Most of my communication is incredibly mundane.

Every time I hear about the DASH diet, I think of the movie Flash Gordon, and in my mind Flash is renamed Dash and he eats lots of fruits/veggies and lean meats. ETA: The groups on here kinda suck, but this one might have some archived resources that could prove useful to you:…

Not a typo, but a misunderstanding. People work for free all the time - they're called interns. I disagree with any law mandating that I can not work for somebody unless they pay me a set amount. If I want to work for $1 per hour, I should be able to. Very few people make minimum wage for very long - low wages are just a…

I don't really care about business owners, but I'm dead set against an increase in min wage. In fact, the best min wage is $0.00 Who benefits from an increase in wages? The people who already have a job, the people with the most skills, and companies that make automation equipment. Who is hurt by an increase in wages?…

Does it have calories? Count it. I would count the OJ, but not the tea - unless you added sugar or it's out of a bottle.

Why would you give a damn what that person said. They have proven that they are a complete *kitten*.

Eye no rite?! OP is sew stewpid! I think that stopping eating grains and meat besides fish would help me loser personality too! I will definitely try that. From here on out, I will only eat grains and meat alone. Never next to fish! I'm all about eating the most delicious food possible that meets my nutrient requirements…

OP for the roll. This is why I only date women who don't have a uterus. Also, that djeffreys dude is a damn genius.

Welcome! Yes, I would log it all as water. FYI that is a controversial issue, as so many stupid things are on MFP :grumble: so there will be lots of different opinions. Another FYI, there is a well hidden search functionality in the blue text right at the top of the form headers. Alternately, hold down CTRL and hit F and…

If sugar were magically made into an impossible molecule and there was no more sugar ever in the world, would there be any impact to the health and/or weight of human beings? I don't know, but I suspect there might be.

If what you're doing isn't working... I think all of your options include "do something different." I'd say you're working out too much. Try 4 days a week.

Anybody know why the staff killed the link to Ed's blog? I don't understand why it was non-conforming to site rules.

Your body can do it, there's no concern there, but your body won't get healthy until your mind does. You apologized 3 times in your post, and you don't have anything at all to apologize for. You said "-I mean that I try to academically or intellectually look at my life and wonder if I wouldn't be better off dead so I won't…

Motivation: Congrats on 30 lbs! You can do this! Support: If you are eating and exercising perfectly to your doctor's recommendations and you are remaining at an unhealthy weight, I think you need a new doctor. Reality: If you really want to lose more weight, open your diary and get more specific about what you are doing…

Congrats! Great commitment - what stands out to me in those pics is... well.. it's the glasses. I really like your new glasses. :)

How are you defining old? One of the reasons I started losing weight was because I was thinking I didn't see very many obese elderly people. After the post two posts up, I then figured it was because they were invisible, but now I'm all confused again!

9 pages?! That's all?! MOAR! counter counter point: http://nutrition.stanford.edu/projects/az.html There's a good video to go along with it as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eREuZEdMAVo&noredirect=1 Bottom line is that some people have different reaction to the carbohydrate nutrient than other people. Those people…

It's a movie where blue aboriginal people defend their homeland against alien invaders.

That woman is awesome. I would have more respect for her though if she just went around being awesome instead of publishing that pic. That 'fitspiration' has a whiff of challenge in my mind. Sort of "I overcame my challenges - your inability to do the same means you are lesser". I fully acknowledge that most of that comes…

Some days. I notice that if I overeat, I don't feel cold. I think at least part of it is that when you are in a calorie deficit, your metabolism adjusts to burn less calories on things like body-heat.

I haven't been shocked since I was 12 and I rubbed my socks on the carpet to build up static electricity.

OH MY GOD!!! I... I had no idea! If only you'd told me sooner, I wouldn't have been miserably obese for most of my life.
