My dad is a member and has lost 50-60 pounds with the help of OA and his sponsor! I went but I just didn't "get it". The whole "higher power" concept to me sounds like avoiding responsibility and using it as a scapegoat, especially since one of the traditions of OA is to admit that you "are powerless over the food…

I've only seen Jiff's single serve ones and they contain 250 calories! A normal serving of peanutbutter contains 190 calories.

Two atoms walk into a bar. One says, "I've lost an electron." The other says, "Are you sure?" The first replies, "Yes, I'm positive..."

Took me a moment to get it but then i loled :laugh: That joke is best when delivered orally

I peel them and warp them in saran wrap. Place them in the freezer, and if you wish, have one a few hours later. The texture is like frozen yogurt! Goes great with peanut butter. If you have a bunch, make sure you let it defrost a bit for 30 minutes or so before eating it. Another idea I read is to coat the banana in…

I'd like input as well, seeing as how my 1.5 scoops of muscle milk protein powder mixed in water (225 calories. I'd mix it in soy milk but it would go bad during my gym workout) never is enough to keep my hunger at bay after a workout, and i have an hour and 20 minute commute ahead of me. So I end up being so hungry that…

You southrons and your summers. You're just a bunch of green boys born in the summer. Don't you know, WINTER IS COMING. :laugh: Hahaha on a more serious note, I can't wait to go swimming again! When I was a lieguard and pool manager, I used to swim up to 50 laps per day several times per week. (I don't know the length of…

Mine is Cantando-Gato.tumblr.com I mainly post nerdy/geeky stuff relating to the various fandoms I'm part of, cute pictures of animals, cool facts, a bit of weight loss/nutrition/fitblr, quotes, and stuff related to equal rights, feminism, anti slut-shaming, etc....

What's brown and rhymes with Snoop? Dr. Dre

GOLD! :laugh:

I think the thread is getting a bit off-track, discussing semantics and what-not. Both parties have made their points. Let's move on, eh? Also, I see a lot of people are mentioning that they are annoyed by the myth that drinking water helps in weight loss. It indirectly, DOES help indeed. NOt that it burns calories…

nice back muscles! LOOK AT THAT TRAPEZIUS

A grasshopper walks into a bar and orders a drink. The bartender says "we have a drink named after you!" The grasshopper says "You have a drink named Harold!?"

Ive also had a problem with binging, to the point where I would wake up at 3 am and help myself to 900 calories! I stopped knowing what it felt like to be hungry, because i never let myself get hungry. Because I always ate and was never hungry, I was never satisfied either. I didn't even have a stomachache after my binges.…

You can keep junk in the house but make it more inaccessible. Like, put junk food in a cabinet that you don't normally access, that might be out of reach and contains old appliances that you no longer use. You can also put the junk at the far back of the fridge or cabinet and block it from your line of vision with other…

Why did the hipster burn his tounge? He drank his coffee before it was cool!

But before I couldn't see any definition or individual muscles and now i can?

In the age of information and technology, i, personally like to do my research before automatically believing something. Besides, so many people are misinformed, or, a game of telephone happens (theyu recieve the information but they pass it on and it gets misunderstood and twisted), that i think it's better to play it…

I should clarify, i think what happenned was that i turned my fat into muscle. I don't understand it too well, but I know that I wasn't eating at a deficit, (I was eating at maintenance, around 2,000 cals), and yet in the span of a year i went form doing 0 pullups to being able to do 2-3, I can lift more, and bench press…

Oooo this one i've heard so often but I never know what to believe. Elaborate? Links to articles? I understand that weight gain is caused by consuming more calories than you burn. But It's also known that carbs spike your blood sugar, causing you to be hungry shortly after, which is something we generally don't need so…

*high five* THANK YOU

Actually you can. It just takes longer. This is what I did and it worked, per the advice of the director of fitness at my gym.

Also, it's not a film, just a three part Doctor Who episode but it makes me tear up and hate Steven Moffat and Russel T. Davies for their cruelness: When the Doctor thinks he will survive the Ood's prophecy and then he hears the knock, knock, knock, knock. And you see Wilf's sad expression on his face as he's locked in the…

WHY WOULD YOU POST THE PICTURES!? All you had to do was say Lion King and I'm sure at least 80% of the forum would've understood what part! That's why I never liked Lion King (or Bambi) growing up. I preferred movies with happy endings. Though now that I'm older, I like the ones that end sadly when I need a good cry, to…

Sweeney Todd

:laugh: Steve, you sound like a fun drinking buddy

dork and geek/nerd I guess the second two happen when youre in drama club, book club, art club, and debate team. :laugh:

I love Zumba too much to worry about what others think while I do it. Besides, I can't be the only one who looks like an epilleptic on amphetamines lmao!

Thanks much! I get a bit self conscious at the gym (especially when I'm grunting and moving up a weight). Good motivation! :bigsmile: :drinker:

Remember to focus on the positive and on your acheivements rather than setbacks: negatitivity sets you up for low self esteem and binging ( i know from experience!). Keep at it and stay strong! you can do it!
