  • Last two people answered at the same time so 1. No, I'm bi. (if you have a crush on someone of the same sex you're probably bi or gay, j/s) 2. Yes, yes I have... A bottle of wine with the mother-I-L followed by a trip to the bar... ffffffff*** HYE ate a whole pie in one serving?
  • http://scoobysworkshop.com/how-to-weigh-yourself-accurately/#dailyweightfluxuations He helped me, hope it will help you as well. If you want to weigh daily, you have to relax a little and just know that you are eating right! If you cannot do this, perhaps you should plan a weigh in day following a set meal plan(low sodium,…
  • No (thankfully!) HYE streaked?
  • Hey there, welcome back. Congrats to you both, how inspiring, and good to know that you can do it, seeing as you have done it before ADJ! Question for you though How long did you "maintain" on MFP before quitting? I've not lost as much weight, but total about 30 pounds between my visits... currently I have 27 pounds to…
  • LOL, but not true! I actually weight myself when I wake and then after I pee and I've had up to a .4lb difference! lmao I know TMI, but you started it!
  • Hello there, Welcome back(?) I've also quit MFP twice and I came back heavier each time... If you'd like to add me feel free. Question though, if you don't mind answering- When you achieved your goal, how long did you maintain on MFP before quitting? Personally I quit each time, when I got close to my goal. Not to give up,…
  • I sometimes cook flaxseeds whole, and they are a nice crunchy addition, but I believe that the oil also separates to some extent(I've seen oily residue when I was only cooking with water) and I also chew them, so I log the full amount as I would rather err on the low side than on the high side...
  • I'd like to offer my services as a lip biter to him... I'm sure my partner would understand. ;) lol
  • I'm in! I log daily, usually peruse my friends list daily as well... My diary is open as is my message box and it's nice to have people who will talk back from time to time! 1 thing though... If your goal is set to 1200 and you're always under and/or not eating back any of your exercise calories... we're probably not a…
  • The pear shape will be less defined as you lose weight to an extent.
  • Nope, there's something wrong with their thinking... Nutrition and micro biology did me in... My professor was a hoot, and very blunt! I may not make the best decisions all the time, but I know when I'm doing bad, and I'm not trying to convince others to follow my mistakes ;)
  • YES! I was overjoyed when I saw that lol, but also I buy a bottle of jet alert(I think is what it's called) it's just caffeine. 1/2 a pill is like a cup of coffee(yep I break them). It makes it easier to go about my day and pretend that I'm not a mountain dew chugging gamer... lol It was only like $4 for the bottle and…
  • I know that you didn't ask, but... I'm 5' 8.5" 171 pounds eating 2000 or so calories a day Averaging a deficient of 500 calories(balanced weekly) for 1 pound a week loss. Highly recommend the sexypants post by Sidesteel(already linked) Also "It’s not that hard and its not that complicated. The changes you need to make to…
  • I've quit MFP twice already... on the surface I love food, food is fuel and good and delicious... (what I eat anyways) I like chicken and rice and quinoa and veggies and I'm okay with water and all sorts of other good for you things(not into deprivation/ elimination at all) I can eat a balanced meal with 100g of protein…
  • Open diary, real food no diet. Eat 15-2200 daily(balance my deficient weekly) Plan on tracking 2 years minimum.
  • I didn't read all of the responses...but my opinion- Never's not a very nice word... especially when it comes to your partner's pleasure and enjoyment. The close mindedness would probably be a deal breaker for me. Not because of oral specifically, just because I'm a very open, exploratory person and enjoy the same from my…
  • I know this is a dead post, but I'ma poke it and see what happens! I eat 18-2200 a day average. I have around 30 pounds to lose and I've lost 9 pounds so far since May. I am planning on tracking for a minimum of 2 years. Feel free to message or add me :) Open diaries preferred!
  • My diary is open, but I eat 18-2200 calories a day normally...
  • I do. I drink several drinks once or twice a month or less... I haven't drank in over a month atm, just haven't felt the urge. I don't get pass out drunk, but I drink enough to feel it and I track it all. I also measure out snacks incase I get munchy. I'll do a bowl of baby carrots, and chips or a snack mix(If I'm going to…
  • 5' 8.5" 27 171-5 sedentary maintenance is ~2000 daily burn target(via body media fit which in my experience is very accurate) is 2600 which puts me eating an average of 2100 a day for the week while loosing a pound a week.
  • Absolutely this. Sorry for the spell of bad luck, but that can't force you to stop. Keep on truckin and walk when you're able to.
  • VLCD should only be carried out in doctor supervised situations where the patient's weight is an immediate danger to their health more so than the risk and stress of the VLCD! Food is fuel.. fuel is good! EDIT- side note... Wikipedia, while useful to satisfy curiosity is not citation worthy according to any of the…
  • My daughter's school is the same... Not just sandwiches, also crackers and candies... peanut butter and strawberry for her class personally. I find it really annoying... and I know there were people with allergies when I went to school. I remember banana, strawberry, peanut butter, and cherry allergies off hand from my…
  • Be consistent in what you do.. Give something a good month before you judge your progress too harshly(within healthy bounds that is)... Even eating at a deficient while starting a new routine will usually lead to some superficial weight gain(muscles generally are retaining water when they're sore). You can judge the effect…

  • ^^ You rock! I got crazy stretch marks my last trimester with my daughter, (and I've had stretch marks from going from flat to D cup in less than a year when I was 14) I still have all of them, but with time they "normalize" they fade, they turn kinda silvery and they're less noticeable for me personally when I get a…
  • I did have a really well rated hrm from amazon that had a chest strap... Personally it was unbearable imo, if I went above moderate activity, the sweat and rub was just bad and it didn't help that it interacted with my bra either... It was okay for walks and seemed very accurate and it was okay if there were a couple days…
  • Define toxin... and what is this "food"(?)/shake going to do to remove it? That your body will not do? Also if the shake/program is doing it and not your natural equipment (liver & kidneys namely) what is happening to said toxin that it is no longer with you, where is it going? question @Jaelee Was suppose to be a quote-…
  • I average weekly as well, I don't "carry over" so much as I look at the week as a whole. It allows me to achieve balance that I cannot achieve on a daily basis. I like the app's version of reports because it actually has a weekly average bar in addition to the daily calorie net
