I don't think there is any fiber in my favorite slutty halloween costumes. I just lick them off.

Yes, please confirm your numbers. Average loss of more than 9 lbs per week for 16 weeks sounds like science fiction.

I've gained, lost, and maintained, and I've never once wondered why, so maybe I'm not the target market for this. That said, this is an insulting smug self-satisfied article that irritates more than educates. The solid and true points like people underestimating consumption and overestimating exertion are lost in the…

I'm 100% redneck by breeding, but I'm citified these days.

You want to know what I think of the person about me? I think they are body.

It seems strange to me. I've logged almost everything I've eaten for almost two years, but I don't feel like I've been counting calories. I've been telling MFP what I eat and it has been counting calories for me. I use the information it gives me to help me make some decisions, but I'm not a slave to the numbers. They are…

Lazy - I just copied this from my profile. My four pillars of weight-loss. 1) Years of therapy. I acknowledge that not all chubbitude is sourced in depression, but mine sure was. 2) Log EVERYTHING - I document every gram of everything I eat or drink. I've found that if I don't journal, my eating goes on autopilot. An…

In the lions' den!

I love watching women fight. Especially when it's over such inconsequential BS.

Congratulations! My favorite bagel toppings all have significant fat amounts, but I like what others have said. I will give one savory recommendation and one sweet. for savory, I would recommend fresh mozzarella cheese and tomato. One thing to try would be to cut up the bagel into rings and put a toothpick through the…

Ramen = Salty deep fried starch. Of course they're good. NEXT QUESTION!

Define vegetable o declarer of things. I love corn on the cob or buttery popcorn. Or creamed corn. Or nixtamalized corn. I eat lowish carb, but please spare me your anti-grain horror stories unless you have some solid science to back it up.

Are you (pre-)diabetic? Then maybe not so good. Otherwise, hit it! Just count the cals accurately. WEIGH!!!!

Math tip - 23 is not double 16. Also, I wish these parody threads linked to the original...

I just want to say thanks to everybody who was able to make it! It was fun! We went about 6 miles. The weather was great and the company was even better.

Looks like we can expect beautiful weather tomorrow. I will be wearing a blue shirt and a funny safari-ish hat in the parking lot. Maybe I'll make an MFP sign.

Bottle of Vitamin D

ETA: Superb first post^^^^^^^^^^ False dang, I forgot the format. I've never... been married.

"you need a boyfriend" My therapist told me that once. When I raised an eyebrow (not being gay) she said "y'know - like how girls have girlfriends". I said I'd work on it. Still have way more female friends than male. Advice for you: 1) Be the most awesome you that you can be. 2) Meetup.com. Don't start with the singles…

That sounds really frustrating. I can't imagine worrying about 4 pounds. I gain 4 lbs if I just get backed up a bit.

Mandatory: LOG LIKE IT'S YOUR JOB 10K STEPS. NO EXCUSES Optional: Do sprints for 20 minutes every week. Sounds like you have the calorie thing pretty well figured. I'd drop it by 100 for a month or so to see if that makes a difference. Go slow.

Where are these MFP police? I've been here a while and visit the boards with some frequency, and I have seen precious few people "beating up" others. I hardly ever see anybody giving advice unless an OP is coming to the boards for help. In which case, how is giving advice in any beating them up? One thing I have seen is an…

Yes you will lose lean bodymass. Yes, protein helps. http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/releases/62937.php

The last time I fell for something like this, she was "from Russia" and ended up wanting money. Fortunately I didn't have any to give at that time. :laugh:

As has been said, wine and beer are also 100% natural and good for you.

I find myself wondering how they ripped them out and why they tossed them on the road.

It is indeed the work of shaitan as foretold in the ancient scrolls. How could you possibly question that?

You're a success story to me. Thank you for sharing.

How do you know it ain't no thang for them? Don't make assumptions. :)

I suspect many are not realizing that you are only showing half the picture. Resized: Great job, and yeah - what everybody else said. I'm in a similar boat as you having started out at 382, so thanks for sharing.
