if i had children i feel 10 is too young to have unlimited internet access and texting. Maybe i'd be a bad parent, but i came from a time when the only kids in school who had pagers were drug dealers. But it's not the childs fault, that's a parenting decision i wouldn't have said anything about except that you asked what…

my old wardrobe that i can't fit into anymore. the thought of having to buy bigger clothes if i give up...

i'm really self-conscious so i work out at home on my wii and with dvds. i keep thinking i'll get over it, but i haven't yet.
-
i don't log normal daily cleaning that i do on a regular basis. however we are getting the house ready to be put on the market aug 10 or 17th and that included a super deep clean which i logged. that burns calories, and i often would clean myself into a sweat as a polished the hardwood floor or carried boxes between floors…

this. totally this. if you can get over being self conscious it's a great time.
-
probably does affect what people think of me. but i picked a this picture of me dancing because dance is one of my main motivations for health. if people don't like it, i really don't care anymore.

as someone else here who is recovering from an eating disorder, yes, i do understand how it is to hate eating but as brought up here by others, that isn't a good outlook for recovery. Figure out what you can eat and take it one meal at a time. Keep up with your professional help. :) But focusing on these feelings won't…

my tatic is i got with a guy who eats 4 white wonderbread toasts slathered in nutella. seriously slathered. have him talk at you while he's doing it about how healthy it is. repeat for 4 years.

i'm a fox or a wildcat here. fits well enough
-
that my dr, who hasn't seen me in 6 weeks (i just did 30 days logging in) said that i looked healthier than when he last saw me (even tho we're coming up to TOM) and asked if i'd lost weight! I haven't lost weight but maybe i'm getting some muscles back
-
yes and yes, actually to the same video too.
-
my SO isn't supportive in that: -he will put cheese on my food before serving it to me when i've asked him not to -he makes fun of my calorie counting -he makes fun of my 'bird seed bread' and 'food's food' -he insists on making no changes to his diet, which includes 4 white breads slathered in nutella as his his healthy…

to be understood by my fiance.... but i'll take a vacation if understanding from the male kind is impossible. One ticket to Belize please.

One of these, dark chocolate. 50 calories. Gets my craving and is portion controlled

I will use this site as long as it exists. Before MFP i would journal all of what i ate and i had a big book of caloric values. It probably wasn't as accurate, but I've been logging my food on and off since i was 11. I really like that MFP also counts macro nutrients and exercise.

^^^^This, I find this so rude! My 'friends' who are constantly texting while hanging out. if they're so f'in bored by me then why bother coming to visit? a new environment to text in? I'm starting to just tell people who are texting "I'm sorry, I must be interrupting you because you are busy. Call me when you have some…

I have a pic of my feet in dance shoes because wanting to dance again is one of my main motivations for getting healthier. i also just love how feet look in pointe shoes.
-
I've experienced this in the past as a competitive dancer, i'd be running a huge calorie deficit because i'd burn so many calories over the day, but i also didn't worry much about eating too much, i just ate until i wasn't hungry anymore.i would however bring protein bars and stuff with me if i started to get less energy…
-
My reasons for finding fast food THAT bad is knowing that people like my brother have worked fast food. I question the ingredients and the care in preparation, things like that. The occasional fast food won't kill you, it just shouldn't be a major part of your diet
-
if i have enough calories i'll indulge in some of my favorite healthy foods. if not i'll do my nails, have a foot bath, dye my hair, something that is calorie free. If i break my own rule and get a food reward it's something like tea (which is virtually calorie free if you don't sweeten) or fresh fruit, things i wouldn't…
-
kinda yes, i will cheat but i avoid food that makes me feel like crap because it's not worth the price of ordering out for how that food makes me feel. I cheat on things like an extra bowl of granola.

i'm 5'3 and my highest weight was 175 which was at the end of next year. currently i'm in the low 160's. my goal weight is somewhere between 128-140 depending on how much muscle i'm carrying.

Love Crunch organic granola: http://www.naturespath.com/products/premium%20granola?tid=All&brand=All&nutri=All it's awesome when i have lots of calories left over at the end of the day.

non-fat greek yogurt, hummus and cucumbers, baby carrots... things like that i guess. in the fridge i have some single serve salmon fillets instead of tv dinners, i try to keep a lemon and a lime around for putting in water. I have a pack of all bran bars around if i'm feeling like snacking they're satisfying because of…

That's an awesome change. I bet you feel a lot better than you did before too. You're doing it right, lifelong changes for ultimate health :) Well done.
-
the first one was kinda... not great on the interface and a little harder to follow if you're not a natural dancer. The second one is much improved. i'd buy zumba 2 which should be on sale now or in the near future because they're releasing a new zumba game. last i checked amazon it was on sale. Just dance and EA sports is…
-
I'm going through something similar. we're not exactly on the rocks but our ship is headed toward the shore at a pretty good clip.... How i'm dealing with it is to try to treat myself in moderation. i have bought some dark chocolate and cherries, lots of healthy food so my eating schedule isn't dependent on him, and i…

this is why i only do zumba at home on the wii. but this is also why i love zumba. if i can just get over the fact i probably look like i'm having a seizure of some kind or doing a strange mating dance, it's pretty fun. but everyone likes different stuff.

common sense on the internet?! BURN THE WITCH.:flowerforyou: seriously, good point about seeking medical advice from sources other than the internet where everyone's an expert and no one agrees.
