Hehehe... I see what you did there.... And I really wish that were the case, but it doesn't matter where it's at. Whether San Francisco, Hayward, or back in Humboldt County (hometown) it all affects me the same, gut-wrenching way.

I think the real question is... why would anyone want to eat Subway? That place gives me the ****s like no other. Every. Single. Time. It's like the Taco Bell of sandwiches, except doesn't have as much MSG.

Me thinks you should look up the definition of 'hostile'. It's called bluntness and snark. Oh yeah. And truth.

I told them that if I was a whale, that means that I could crush them if I sat on them. It led to me chasing a lot of boys, and also, a lot of nut kicking. They deserved so much more. I'm sorry that was also your nickname. I'm working my way down from whale to hopefully dolphin or sea otter. lol!

Not sure how I said any of that. I said what "she does" (my coworker) and "what I do". I've also tried to explain what the other side may be thinking, and it could be that both sides see themselves as the victim. Just trying to give a little perspective to similar situations. And its true, you win over more people with…

This is... kind of funny to me. Not funny ha-ha, but I guess kind of ironic. My co-worker and I are both losing weight, in different ways and with different methods, but we help back each other up. She weighs her food, down to the iota, because she's focused on getting to a certain body fat percentage. She also has celiac…

My nickname is grade school and middle school was "whale". I managed to turn it into a big joke about how if they kept making fun of me that I would chase them down and sit on them... and I'd follow through with that. Sure, publicly, I turned it around but every night, I'd come home and cry myself to sleep. I was at a…

From what I calculated using this: http://scoobysworkshop.com/calorie-calculator/ Your TDEE is 1587, your BMR is 1322. So, to maintain your weight, you should be eating about 1587. Can I ask why you want to lose 2 more lbs? You're at a healthy (if not low) weight for your height and you look fabulous. If you want to tone…

I use Nerd Fitness. They have multiple levels of exercising, and 3 different plans depending on what specifically you want to work on.

For me, it's been a two-step deal. I had to cut out completely the things that I would binge and bored eat. Which falls into the bread and processed foods grouping. So no hard candies, and its not like I want to snack on nuts all day. For me, having a piece of cake today will lead to having it tomorrow, and the next day,…

I'm on board with asking a doctor and/or experienced trainer if your back problems are that severe. However, I suffer from a lower nerve issue in my back and the only thing that I find helps it is exercise. I've been doing some heavy lifting, bench presses mainly, and find that as long as I have the correct form, they…

:laugh: :blushing: My mind went in a TOTALLY different direction with this! ROFL!! Oh, thank god it's Friday!! Why IS it that girls tend to like tall men though? I have to say... near my height or shorter just doesn't do it for me.

Back to the topic at hand.... do women (& men) actually even have a clue about what they want? I thought I wanted tall, dark, handsome and sensitive... and when I dated that, I found out that I wasn't really into mama's boys who threw temper tantrums and had more feels than I did. And his narcissism.... Whoo boy!!

Please see comment about said 'troll'. You aren't looking like a white knight, you're looking JUST like him.

Then why feed the troll?! For the love of god, trolls do it to get a rise. Don't you people know how the internet works? There's no such thing as a white knight when you come in mocking someone who is mocking someone. That doesn't add up at all. If he wants to white knight it, then he can report the dude and leave it…

Because internet friends are the epitome of life? O.o? Dude, that comment must have gotten your panties in a severe twist. Did he hit a little close to home or something? Yikes.... talk about overreaction. I shall add to my list that drama-llama men are NOT attractive.

Heh....heheheheheehhehe. :blushing: Honestly, it was my fiancé's protective nature. He didn't want anyone to hurt me or make fun of me, and even stood up for me to my then boyfriend. Then followed by his overwhelming acceptance and support of/for who I am (even the things I have trouble accepting), followed by his all…

Every morning I have a scrambled egg, some pre-cooked homemade pork sausage, and a slice of cheese. If I have avocado, I'll do that too. Days I work out, I add a 1 cup almond milk w/protein powder. I microwave the egg and the sausage is already cooked, so it literally takes only 1 minute to cook. 30 seconds just the egg in…

In for the perv once I get home. lol!

I'm going to give you some hard advice. It was advice that I didn't want to hear, but someone had to tell me before I understood. The only thing that's standing in your way to success.... is you. It's all a mental game change. You had a bad weekend. Accept it, and get over it. Move on. Learn from what triggered it, and say…

Have you actually sat down with your hubby and explained that you need his support for this? It sounds like he doesn't think you need to lose weight and therefore doesn't understand why you're not eating certain foods that you've always eaten. Explain it to him. Explain to him why. That to me would be step one. However,…

I have a friend who's the same way. She gets funny looks because she pays close attention to her macros and weighs her food. People always say "Really?" When I'm with her I always say "Really. What's it to you?" But then again, I'm rather blunt and aggressive. I would tell people that you're not trying to lose weight,…

Wait... Jennifer Lawrence? Why? What's she done, besides being a real human being instead of acting fake? Plus... she's hot. Like, really, really hot. Kayne West: Thinks he's a genius, God's gift to this world, and on the same level as Mother Teresa or Ghandi. Ummm.....NO. Jim Carrey: Did a movie in our small town and was…

Second for the Body Fortress! Walmart and Amazon both have really good prices on it, and it doesn't leave any weird aftertaste for me.

Here's the thing... none of us know your daughter. None of us know the relationship that you and your daughter have. As an adult, I would assume that she could handle a sit down conversation with her mom. To me, parents are tasked with the hardest task out there, which is balancing the line of taking care of a child and…

For me, I do my best to stay away from artificial sweeteners and processed foods in general. So soda in general is a no go for me. If I want a sweet drink, I have a fruit smoothie made with almond milk and OJ. It just depends on what your current goal is. Mine is to get healthy, and they say you are what you eat, so why…

I hope you're spam. Let's put it to ya straight. There is no such thing as a quick fix. If there was, then EVERYONE WOULD BE USING IT. The only safe, effective method to losing weight is through paying attention to what you eat and exercise. I know, that sucks. It's rough. You didn't put it on in a day, or a week, or a…

I really hate this quote, because your goal shouldn't be to be "thin". Your goal should be to be healthy and fit.

On the canned tuna advice, make sure to read up on the mercury content in different brands/kinds. It's kind of crazy how much mercury can be in fish. That being said, canned chickpeas, farmed fish and eggs. What I do to help myself is make a menu (I buy a month at a time) for L & D (I have the same thing for breakfast…

Don't give up what you want most, for what you want now.
