I've seen very little help and a lot of judgement on this topic. I think just about all of us have a problem with discipline and moderation --- Otherwise we wouldn't be on this site. The idea is to help one another, not judge. I can relate to the whole sugar addiction problem. I've have a problem with it ever since I used…

While I think it's fine if you can look like that 4 days after giving birth --- God bless her, I never did --- I think it was mean spirited of Maria Kang (I think) to post a picture of herself with her three kids captioned, 'What's your excuse?' I never looked like that BEFORE giving birth --- Not even before the first…

I'm single because I just haven't been trying very hard since my divorce 8 years ago. Up until about a year ago I was very content with my life the way it was, but now I'm at a point in my life where I'd like to change it. Is that a good answer? Do you think it would get me an ask-out?

I have some boneless chicken breasts in the freezer that I need to start eating. I like to brush mine with olive oil, then sprinkle on some garlic salt and oregano, then grill it on the Jenn Air. The olive oil gives it a nice flavor, I should get some out and have that tonight. Don't know what I'd have with it, though. I…

I don't think so. A little young for me. Other than that....

I gotta say my least favorite is Cats. What utter nonsense! I walked out of the theatre and said, "What the hell was THAT?!" I'd have to say my favorite is The Wizard of Oz? That counts as a musical, doesn't it? Just because it's a movie and not a play --- If not, Phantom of the Opera. Saw it live on stage twice.

I believe in all things in moderation. If you totally deny yourself of the things you love you will crave them that much more and you will eventually go hog wild. So have what you like and cut back somewhere else. Just work it into your calorie count and you will be fine. I for one could never give up chocolate so I find…

My 2009 granite black metallic Chevy Equinox that I bought brand new is named Raul. I've taken such good care of him that people often ask me if he's new. But the bumper-to-bumper warranty is expired and the power train warranty is running out, I haven't told him yet, but I'm trading him in on a 2014 Equinox that I'm…

I like the way that a lot of companies, instead of raising the prices have chosen to make their products smaller and they think we're too stupid to notice. But more often than not, and even worse, the products are smaller and the prices have still gone up. I know this is a dieting website and therefore we're not supposed…

Not to mention that sometimes the value on those cards expire and if you don't use up the value within a given time you lose it. Which means the company that gave you the card really makes out.

I know it's completely irrelevant to the post but ---- Too funny!

Well done you! I wouldn't let them get away with that #$%&!

I don't blame her for her reaction. Although I saw some people giving helpful advice, I also saw some people practically accusing her of being bulimic. And from what I read in her query, I don't think that's the case.

Ice cream would be terrible on an upset stomach. If you feel hungry have yourself a cup of tea and maybe some toast. Don't eat if you don't feel hungry, but don't deny yourself if you do. Calories don't matter when you're sick. Hope you feel better soon. :flowerforyou:

Phyllis is syphilis spelled sideways. :happy:

That's a regional thing. I live in western New York State and calling pop soda in these parts is fightin' words.

It grates on my nerves when people say 'jealous' when they mean 'envy'. Just a pet peeve of mine, but I never say anything because I don't want to appear petty. And I'm sure I make more than my share of grammatical errors, too.

I also like those Coco Puff bars that come in a box of 6. They're only 100 calories, they're very chocolatey and they give me a little crunch, which is very satisfying,

I drink hot cocoa. It takes longer to drink than it does to just eat away at chocolate and it really satisfies my craving. My favorite cocoa mix is Land-o-Lakes Classic Chocolate that comes in a singular pouch. It's a little pricey, but if it satisfies my craving, it's worth it.

I can see why! Slight smile, eyebrow raise and look away!

I know it's frustrating, but if you're eating right and you stick with it, the numbers will eventually move. Weigh yourself less often so that the numbers won't frustrate you. When I ran into a plateau like this I upped my calories by about 500 for a week, then went back down to what I was eating before. I gained about a…

fun

Sorry --- he slipped in before me. Awwwww!

Ooooh!!!!

Welcome, welcome, welcome! You came to the right place. The people on here are sooo supportive. I've been on here about 11 months and I've lost 49 pounds. I've been slacking off a little bit lately, or it would've been more, but with the encouragement that I've been receiving from MFPs, I'm still pluggin'! Please --- feel…

I know it hurts, but dump the loser and be glad you're rid of him. He loved you until his parents saw you and made comments? You need to find someone with enough intelligence to think for himself. You're the same person whether you're fat or thin and that's what should matter to him or anyone else who truly loves you. You…
