My dog, like I'm sure most dogs, likes to go outside at 3 in the morning to bark at nothing and wake up all the neighbors. What a little jerk. She also likes to go into the bathroom, pull out the garbage, shred the tissues and spread them all over the floor. No idea why - she just does. She does some annoying things, but…

Drinks can be deceptive. You don't think about them so much because they're not food. However, they can creep up on you like that and add a ton of calories to your day. That's why I rarely drink anything with calories in it anymore in favor of water, tea and flavor shots. Those drinks add too many calories without filling…

It's a process. If you've been eating junk without thinking for years, you sort of need to re-teach yourself how to eat properly. When you first learn how to do something, are you good at it the first time? Occasionally, one might be, but for the majority of the time, we all fail the first time we try something. Changing…

Yeah, even when I was thin, I've never had a gap between my thighs in my life. I never really gave it much thought, to be honest. But, yeah, I think there's probably too much emphasis on this. Compared to being at a healthy weight, eating right and exercising, this is completely not important.

Okay, but if you don't wanna take someone's advice, you don't wanna take someone's advice. You have the right to your opinion and the right to express it. But when someone's refused your advice, yes, at that point, it's being persistent, and no matter how right you think you are, you should back off. People have the right…

Yeah, but he's all but forcing his opinion down her throat. And she clearly wasn't interested in his advice. If she doesn't wanna do a certain exercise, she doesn't have to. It's her choice how she wants to go about her weight loss. She should be able to make it without being hassled.

Great job! Keep up the good work :)

Not to be a pessimist, but people only say that to you when you have absolutely nothing else good going on in your life. Usually after a ton of bad stuff has happened. I don't think the phrase is so much valuing health as it is slightly nicer than saying "sucks to be you."

No. I'm spastic, irresponsible and I'm not that nice...

You're definitely not eating enough. You should be eating at least 1200 calories every day. And this is a minimum. I wouldn't recommend trying for that number. I would go for a bit more. 1400-1500 should be a good goal, I think. If you're a very active person, you might wanna make it even higher. And that's -with-…

Buckwheat. My boyfriend's allergic. I don't like the idea of cutting out entire foods. I've done it before in the past and it only results in me going way overboard in a moment of weakness. I think allowing myself the choice exercises a lot more control than putting a ban on something until I can't stand it anymore. That…

I'm sensitive to the cold and I can't stand the bugs in the summer. Also, I have more time to exercise at night, and I'd really prefer not to go biking around to all places all hours of the night. I really like home equipment. It allows me to set the conditions for my exercise rather than having them determined for me…

...You just -drink- vinegar...? I used to clean my reptile tank with apple cider vinegar, so I have a very strong association with apple cider vinegar and grossness. I don't think I could bring myself to use it if I -wanted- to.

I don't really care whether my weight fluctuates a bit. I know that it's going to for a number of reasons, so it's not worth worrying about. I log my weight every day. I know that they tell you not to do that, but I think it'll probably be helpful to look at my food logs and weight logs, if I'm having a problem, in order…

Plenty of lub... oh... -Cooking- chicken... right... To be honest, I don't cook much chicken. I find it to be a huge hassle to work with, especially in regards to cross-contamination. Which sucks when you're germphobic. Usually, my boyfriend cooks the chicken. I think most of the time we have karaage. Not the most healthy…

I usually eat vanilla yogurt on corn flakes. It comes to 261 calories. My limit is 1450, so my usual breakfast is 18% of my daily limit.

Typically, meat is weighed uncooked. Cooking is variable. The base amount is not. If you cooked two steaks of the same size, one rare and one well, the rare one is going to weigh more than the well done one. How much your meat weighs after cooking partially depends on how much you cook it. That's why meat is weighed before…

Interestingly enough, I just stumbled upon this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003BW67TW/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_il_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B003BW67TW&linkCode=as2&tag=ohmy0c-20

I went out to dinner. I had margherita pasta. It was pretty good :9

The fact that there are no clothes that fit me, here. That may sound like a vain reason, but seriously, had I gained any more, I couldn't wear any of my clothes or get more, and I don't know what I'd have done. You can't just walk out of the house with no clothes on.

I had a similar realization. Maybe not as drastic, but I realized how many calories some foods can have when I started on this site and started actually... y'know... looking at them... It hit when I tried to log a day and realized that I basically could eat nothing that I normally ate.

While you may not agree with other people, it's their prerogative whether or not they want to lose weight. You have a right to disagree, but you don't have a right to judge people or try to force change upon them. If people want to change, they'll do it. If not, you can't make them. So there's no point in getting upset…

Female 5'2" 83kg Wanna lose ~30kg Exercise bike 3-5 times a week... until recently, anyway... Calorie intake/day: 1200-1450, varies day to day I allow myself one or two break days (cheat days) a week. On break days, I don't know how much I eat. The above number is what I eat the rest of the time.

I've done okay with winging it, before. Sometimes, though, you unexpectedly go over. I have very few breakfasts that I eat and one that I tend to eat the most, so I just start off with that right off the bat. If I know I'm gonna be going out to eat or if I know what I or my boyfriend are going to make for dinner, sometimes…

I'm a classic gamer. In particular, Nintendo. Though, I do like some current games. Sometimes I play DS while I'm on my exercise bike. I also like reading and drawing manga, though I haven't really had much interest in a while. I'm a total linguaphile, which may explain my verbosity. And I'm all about dog behavior and…
