Yeah you definitely got it right. Never even finished reading the article cause it got way too ridiculous!

I'm confused. You are at a healthy weight for your size, actually on the lower end of the healthy weight and bf stats. Are you going for the model/Hollywood skinny look?!? Btw, you look really good in your pic!

Wish I could do weights. Back and whiplash injury won't let me :(

Actually almond milk has less calories and sugar than skim milk. 30 calories for 1 cup serving vs. skim milk which has around 86 calories for one cup. I drink the unsweetened almond milk though. Actually even if you get the sweetened almond milk it only has 60 calories per cup, but I find the sweetened stuff too sweet.…

Thanks for sharing this video!

Great post! :heart:

I think you have hunger confused with wanting to eat. I TOTALLY DISAGREE WITH THE OP. You don't have to be suffering all the time and hungry a lot to lose weight. At least that's never been the case for me. My problem is emotional eating, that is eating when I'm not hungry but just to make myself feel better. I think A LOT…

bump!

Wow you obviously don't know how to take care of cats properly if they were messing in your house. If a cat is peeing or pooping on the floor it's usually because the litter isn't clean (should be cleaned out several times a day), there are not enough litter boxes (in a multi-cat household you must have more than one), you…

Always gotta be a rude one in the bunch.lol. Seems like some people are on this site mainly to criticize others or try and push what works for them on everyone else. Anyways, I do get what you're saying. If someone is overly critical of what you eat and you are eating healthy than either message them and let them know…

Wow, you must be eating very large apples! :laugh:

You have a beautiful smile! :)

I think a majority of us who are overweight have emotional eating issues. I don't mean that we're really depressed and so we go scarf down a whole bag of chips. I went to a weight-loss group a few years back and emotional eating was discussed there quite a bit. A lot of us have grown up learning that food is something we…

Just a word of advice, never let a chiropractor lay a hand on you unless an x-ray has been done first. I have spondylolisthesis and before I had it diagnosed I went to a chiropractor and he made it so much worse. Might have done permanent damage to it

There must be more that the doctor can do to help you. If there isn't, try a different doctor. I saw from your profile that you live in Canada, so I would say keep going to new doctors until you get proper help. (I was in a car accident and no docs wanted to help me. 5 doctors and several years later I finally found one…

yup

I don't understand how people can say that veggies are gross. I mean there must be some vegetables that you like. If you find them all gross I'm thinking it's just your mind frame. Try different types of veggies. Roasted acorn squash is good with a little bit of brown sugar and cinnamon on top. Baked spaghetti squash is…

Yup. I've been overweight since I was 3 years old. Some day I will get to that healthy weight category. Just gotta keep working at it!

Lmao at this! That's so me. Something I really have to work on. Thanx for sharing these tips. Makes me rethink some of my weight loss strategies and habits.

Hmmm...definitely not enough pics on this thread!!!

I think it is different for each person and also depends on the type of weed you're smoking, but I lost 50 lbs in less than 5 months last year while smoking weed, quite a few times per day. If you're a chronic, sometimes you smoke weed instead of eating ( I would smoke it instead of eating to lose weight.) and you also…

24?

My parents grew way too many acorn squash this summer and gave me a bunch. Here's the recipe I wanna try: http://recipes.prevention.com/Recipe/wild-rice-stuffed-squash.aspx

Great story! Luv it. You rock!!!

martini's

F**k them! People that go around insulting others like that are just trying to make themselves feel better because they're ugly on the inside. They obviously have some kind of issues. Think all of us mfp people here should hunt them down and beat the crap out of them. That being said you are a beautiful lady (I saw from…

Canada, actually. So sad

Sushi! I've even had it with raw fish and it wasn't the raw fish that bothers me, it's the nori. That stuff tastes like swamp. Ugh!!!

Brown rice pasta is really tasty! You could try that

You don't need to add many calories at all to make chicken taste good! Focus on using a variety of herbs and spices. I like to marinate mine in lemon juice, a little bit of olive oil (you can skip the olive oil if you want less fat, the chicken will still taste good), oregano, lemon thyme, pepper, and some freshly crushed…
