Ditto.

This is a huge reason for me too... well, when it really started to get out of control. My significant other of 10+ years cheated and got the girl pregnant, after years of telling me we weren't in the right place in our lives to start a family (that I very much wanted). He chose to go be with her, and my world was out of…

Not from stress, but I do have days where I am just so busy that food and eating doesn't even cross my mind until very late in the day. But even then, it's not a hungry feeling - more like, "Hmmm... I haven't eaten anything all day... maybe I should."

Most days I will have a Medium Iced Mocha/Caramel Swirl coffee with cream only from Dunkin Donuts. I refuse to give it up so it's gotta fit into my daily goals...

The Chipotle by my office is cheap... they definitely stick to the servings sizes they are supposed to, if not less. I always get burrito bowls and sometimes when you pick it up, it feels like there is hardly anything in there. (I usually just get rice, beans, fajita veggies and a protein...salsa on the side.) I have been…

I was with someone for 12 years before he cheated on me... he said it had nothing to do with my weight, but I will always believe it did. He made one too many comments over the years for me not to know it was an issue with him. Maybe I would have believed him if the person he cheated with wasn't much, much thinner/prettier…

Condiments, yes. Dry spices, no.

Routine definitely helps me stay on track, but I do give myself a couple different options so I feel like I still have choices. I have 2 breakfasts I choose from. I have 2 lunches I choose from. Dinner during the week is always grilled chicken, I just rotate vegetables. I have about 5 snack options to choose from (2 or 3…

I don't like the taste of the yolk in the form of scrambled eggs or omelettes. So if I am making something like that, I will just buy the egg whites in the carton to use. Occassionally, I will have a fried egg with really runny yolk to dunk my toast in. I'll also eat the yolk in a hard-boiled egg. Weird, I know. But…

I really am not a breakfast lover. But I will usually eat an english muffin with peanut butter (if craving carbs) or eggs whites with a little sausage or bacon (if I am in my low-carb zone).

I am 33, not married, no children. I would love to be a wife and mother, but I am starting to accept that it may not be in the cards for me. Sometimes, I am okay with that thought. Other times, it hurts. A lot. I was in a relationship with a guy for 12 years before he blew it up in an epic, Jerry Springer-like fashion.…

Several years ago, I lost close to 60 lbs in 12 weeks on a medically supervised diet. My starting weight was 290 lbs. I was on a very high protein/low everything else (calorie/carb/fat) plan. I was eating about 130 grams of protein a day (mostly in the form of shakes), 1,000 calories/day, and 10-15 g of fat. And drinkin…

The cruise was a blast last year! I can't wait for May...
