  • Same as most people here. 300-400 calories. I'm thinking about eating more for breakfast though, since it tends to help me feel fuller for the rest of the day.

  • I agree with serving healthy foods at schools and whatnot, but I don't think banning ANYTHING has ever been an effective way of eliminating it. (Hello, prohibition.) However, for everyone who's saying the government is trying to take our freedom, come on. You really think they CARE one way or the other about our freedom?…

  • Hahaha This!! ^^ I take it as a compliment when I get hit on, but it does feel unsafe when a group of men are following me and cat-calling from their car. Not one of them seems to realize that it doesn't make me feel sexy at the moment, just frightened. Especially if I'm alone.

  • I have promised myself one flex day per week where I have to NOT count calories. It's easy for me to get overly-restrictive, so flex days force me to give myself a break.

  • I'm 19, and going to be a sophomore economics major (math and social science, yeah!) I'm taking two classes over the summer because I am a nerd like that! I'm also working on applications to transfer to university for fall '13. I really prefer studying to working out, so I'm just going to say flat-out that I'll be counting…

  • Gummy worms! I always trick myself into thinking I can eat more because they are made with gelatine and gelatine is protein. Whoops. Oh dear, I am going to get more cravings reading this thread than anything else, I think.

  • I got slightly addicted to caffeinated drink mixes last semester, because they were a cheap, quick boost before class without many calories or having to run to Starbucks. XD I'm trying to learn to use them more sparingly though, because artificial sweeteners have chemicals in them that I'm not entirely comfortable with. I…

  • Sometimes, especially if I'm in line after them at the checkout. Sometimes I think, "Somebody's either throwing a party, or having a really bad week." :laugh: People probably think I'm strange, since I always seem to have equal parts health food and convenience food.
    in Do you peek at grocery carts to see what other people buy? Comment by losingthehealthyway June 2012
  • Agreed! I had ice cream for lunch yesterday and I didn't feel bad about it at all. I was actually quite proud of myself for sticking to the serving size.

  • Thanks, both of you! I'm glad to be in good company with this haha. ntlctrl, it's great that you're starting out! I'm not an expert at all, but I am very into number-crunching so if you need a calorie counting buddy I'm there. I'm glad we have similar goals, too. Maybe we'll progress together! I totally get you there Mary.…
