Web developer (HTML and CSS) and currently also learning Silverlight and C#. Also Security+ certified, and I built my own PC.

I started on 1200 and lost about 2lbs a week. Bumped myself to 1500 and I have been GAINING. I have no idea wtf is wrong with me.

I still remember when there were only four food groups...

I looked at the IPOARM post and just ran my numbers in that Fat 2 Fit Radio website again, since I know my BF% thanks to my scale (bioelectrical impedance ftw!) Harris-Benedict says my BMR is 1799 right now. Katch-McArdle says 1313. And I've been eating 1210. Yikes, maybe y'all are right about eating more LOL!

Thanks y'all. Like I said though, I didn't even exercise. I spent my days off on my *kitten* in front of a computer screen and still had that big loss. That's got me even more stumped.

Odd thing is I think I gained an inch in my waist while losing an inch in my boobs... Hips didn't change. I think I'll stick to measurements once a month and just check weight weekly.

5' 1" here and I've got 90 to lose. Already down 10!

I try to. I now have some food in the house that I bought myself and know how to prepare to use in place of going out with my parents if I wasn't careful during the workday and they decide we should go out for dinner.

I agree :) I used to only really drink it on special occasions like parties, though I did buy myself some packets last winter and had a mug every night for a couple weeks. And now I'm really craving some... LOL!

Regular soda (I only have diet now if any at all) and fruit juices that I THOUGHT were good for you until I saw the calorie count. Also don't go out to eat as much but I still go out. Honestly, nothing's off limits, just moderated. I also have not had any alcohol whatsoever since I started tracking. Which wasn't a…

80? That's not bad at all. And I probably wouldn't mind the low cal one either. I'll look into that. We have a crockpot but my dad also has this beverage heater thing he uses when he makes his own cider or mulled wine for parties. Would that work?

Well of course I'm not going to drink as much as I did in college... LOL!

6" buffalo chicken on white with provolone, lettuce, tomato, cucumber, and ranch. Haven't been in a while, but if I ever go again I'll opt for wheat bread and no cheese... and maybe no ranch, but it goes SO good with the buffalo sauce...

Well, pictures of course. And the obligatory new wardrobe. And maybe by that point I'll be confident enough to go out in public and do fun things by myself. Right now I feel like I need friends or family with me everywhere because if I go solo people will look at me and think "oh look at the fat pathetic loser with no…

Another division in my office building was having a bake sale for donations RIGHT OUTSIDE MY WORK AREA. So I came on here to plan out my entire day and worked it around allowing myself a small strawberry cupcake, because it's very hard for me to say no to a cupcake! (At least I'm good at only having ONE if offered! :wink: )

I plan on eating what I normally eat every thanksgiving. Turkey, mashed potatoes, rolls, yams... I know there will also be stuffing, green bean casserole, and cranberry sauce, but I hate those and therefore won't touch them. And I'm going to have pie for dessert. And I'm not going to log it either. I am going to enjoy…

This sort of thing happens? Heh, that makes me feel better about not consistently dropping 2lbs a week like I'm supposed to be... XD

I hate that one too for other reasons. "Tonight thank God it's them instead of you?" How terrible and selfish! Plus all the artists singing the song have tons of money, why don't THEY donate something?

I like Little Drummer Boy, because I played drums in school, my brother is a drummer as well, and the story is just so great that this little kid who has nothing comes to see Jesus and offers to play his drum for him because he has nothing else to give, and Jesus appreciates it! I hate Christmas Shoes because it's just sad.

Loved 3! Haven't tried New Vegas. Trying to encourage my brother to play it LOL! Him: "What's it about?" Me: "It's like a post-apocalyptic Oblivion/Skyrim... but with guns."

If you wanna go really short, go for it! I think you'd look great! I just cut my hair really short a couple days ago (even though I haven't reached my goal weight yet) because I missed having short hair and I'm glad I did! Soooo much easier to take care of! (Pic in profile btw.)

I use Mio to make myself drink more water. Walmart's got a generic version that has a blue raspberry flavor and it is YUMMY!

I think I look fine without makeup. I never ever wear it. Not even for formal occasions unless I absolutely HAVE to, and that decision is usually made by my mom.

1. What is your eye color? Blue 2. What is youre favorite season? Fall 3. What is your favorite Holiday? Christmas 4. Have you ever been arrested? Nope 5. What are 2 things with in arms reach of you right now? My phone and a bottle of water 6. Would you rather know how you are going to die, Or know when you are going to…

Beef jerky. They sell 42g snack bags of Jack Link's at the little self-service market in my office building. 120 cals and 22g of protein... better than a chocolate peanut butter protein bar!

I do, because I have nothing better to do sometimes. Been a little slow for me lately.

To no longer be considered obese.

I put myself as sedentary because I really am very sedentary. Exercise isn't a regular thing for me though I'm working on getting to that point. I'll eat back my exercise cals if I'm hungry enough for it. Nice to know that exercise can give me a little wiggle room so I don't have to eat the same low-cal foods EVERY DAY! ;)

Loved this! I was pretty brutally ripped on for my diary choices earlier this week. People even followed me into another thread about a completely different matter to continue their hounding! I've set my diary to "friends only" because of that!

I want one but by the time I got around to preordering everyone had sold out of preorders! So I probably won't be able to find any until next year! :(
