You look awesome! :D Now that I'm close to my goal weight, I've been thinking about giving cosplay a try too. You're an inspiration!

Hi everyone! :) I live in KC. I'm working on getting rid of those last 10-12 lbs. I've lost ~27 lbs since joining this site, and 60 lbs total! :D I am definitely interested in a meet up sometime. Friend me if you feel so inclined!

Just be careful about setting yourself up to fail the next day. If you already have 200 calories or whatever and you haven't actually eaten anything, it's only that much easier to go over, continuing the cycle. I personally count each "calorie day" by when I wake up and go to sleep, works best for me.

We're talking in the past tense, though. To many people, health is primarily about looks. I only meant to help shed some light on where people are coming from when they say that kind of thing.

I used to say that when I really just wasn't emotionally ready to tackle my health yet. Granted, I was very strapped for cash and my time was limited, but I still definitely could have improved my habits. There are only so many things that we are capable of doing at once, though. Once I finished school and began my career,…

I just switched things around a bit. When I go to Chipotle, instead of getting a burrito (with rice), I get a salad (lettuce instead of rice, and without the tortilla). It brings my meal to 395 calories, versus 840! It probably tastes about 15% less amazing, but the calorie difference is completely worth it. Logging my…

Yes! I make video game art (3D environments and props) for a living. My game of choice right now is LoL.

My boyfriend says my money! :laugh: I kid.

Add me! :) Especially if you're a geek, or need some extra encouragement.

Wow, you accomplished that in a year? You are amazing!!

Yeah, once I switched over to a healther diet, I was shocked at how little I could eat and feel full. This is a good thing, but there are days where I'm making myself eat a banana or apple just to meet my calorie goals. For the first couple of weeks, I didn't meet my goal (stopped when I felt full for the day), but…

Don't. Some people are immediately hurt the minute that weight loss even comes up in conversation. While it's reasonable for you to expect her to be supportive and happy for you, try to be very sensitive about how that information affects her. In some ways, you losing weight is kind of like she's gaining weight. (My…

I love it! I usually mix a little up with my salads, rather than dressing. Give it a try sometime! :)

Interesting! That's something I've been scared to do in the past. Thanks for the heads up. :)

I drink the lean1 protein shakes. I really enjoy them, they taste delicious, and are VERY filling. I add in fruit to mix it up a bit, but vanilla and chocolate are both great. (I stay away from the strawberry flavored shake because it tastes too fake, but if you add in a few berries to vanilla or chocolate, it's a…

Yeah.. I get that sometimes. I don't really know how to respond (to the ones that I like--the ones that I don't like, it's easy! ha).. I don't want to shove healthier habits in their face, but I'm not used to receiving **** without giving it back a little, playfully of course. ;) But weight is too sensitive of a subject to…

Healthy, quickly prepared food can be pretty difficult to find. If you put in the time and effort to research it and join this kind of website, you can figure out how to incorporate healthy foods into your diet, sure. However, food in general is a lot less healthy now than it was in 1971. Obviously our TV habits…

I prefer working out in situations with only women. I used to work out at a couple of co-ed gyms, they weren't terrible, but I definitely felt out of place and a little self conscious. I'm really lucky that I live right next to a friendly all-womens gym now; most of the members are at least twice my age, but they're all…
