Live to eat. I love it!

I just consider it a cheat day if I totally go off the wagon and eat everything in sight. Then I do better the next several days. I will give myself a cheat meal more often, though.

My cat put his butt on my pile of jelly beans. I was not as pleased with his help...

I agree with the rest of the posters. Listen to your parents; they're trying to help you. It's time to realize you have disordered eating, and if you can't make yourself start eating more, it's time to go to a therapist or professional of some sort for help. Good luck. Your body needs nutrients.

Stop eating eggs if you hate them. Seriously. Don't force yourself. There are other ways to get nutrients that aren't from going "ugh" every bite of your sandwich. I'd suggest posting a topic about "a cheap, healthy alternative to eggs" or something.

If you feel comfortable in the matching bottom, you should wear it!

Could you clarify why you need to eat so little? Are you full on that much? Are you specifically trying to maintain that weight? To only eat 1000 calories a day doesn't give your body a lot of fuel to work with. Most people of your height and weight would need at least 1500 calories to break even every day. The fact that…

Tommy and Kimberly forever!

Try eating healthy and low calorie for the most part, but don't totally deprive yourself at get togethers. Eat the things you love in moderation, and don't fill up on things you only kind of like.

No experience, but I'll bump it since I'm curious too...

That sounds awesome.

Well said! :drinker: (Though I don't think you burn that many more calories from the extra bathroom trips... Wish I did! :laugh:)

I probably drink over 70 ounces every day, but that's because I'm thirsty. And days where I work out, I drink even more. I'm a firm believer in only drinking what you're thirsty for, not forcing yourself to chug water. Still, if you only drink a glass a day, try upping it to at least 2 or 3...

No... There is one I really wish I could have met, but he's no longer on the site.

Batman?!

I can't hear a phone vibrate without thinking of other things that vibrate. :blushing:

A lot of people go on a weekly calorie intake rather than a daily one. Your body doesn't simply reset in a 24 hour period. It's not a computer or anything. If I don't eat all of my calories one day, I'll eat them the next day. And if I overeat one day, I just do better the next day rather than taking away calories from my…

The reason I joined a gym is because I hate wasting money and knew I'd end up going so I hadn't just thrown the cash away. Sounds like you don't quite have the same mindset, but if you're serious about getting fit, you'll find time to go. In fact, every time you're feeling depressed, you could just pack up and go to the…

Kind of. You generally only poop indigestable fiber and dead bacteria (and the rest is actually water). If your body can use it, it'll keep it. If we all pooped two pizzas after eating two pizzas, everyone would be thin. So anyway, people who eat a lot of insoluble fiber should actually poop a lot... More than people who…

Putting on a little lip gloss and eye liner makes a huge difference on me. But I'm lazy, so that's as much work as I'll do. It takes about one minute.

Maybe the person I was sharing them with didn't actually like melons. =( How tragic, since they're so good for you.

I've always heard a melon larger than one's hand is just wasted melon.

3. I should probably work on that.

Nothing wrong with a straight body type! It looks cute in almost everything! Though your measurements sound like you have a waist going on in there.

If you're at a calorie deficit, you will lose weight. However, try working healthier foods in. Fruits and veggies have a lot more nutrients so your body feel better, not to mention they give you a lot more volume for fewer calories. Potatoes are fine for you. And if you eat the skin, you get nutrients from it. Start…

Get marriage counseling. If you can trust him again and he remains faithful, then your marriage could survive. But get a professional involved to help you guys sort out your feelings and your issues.

Apparently it's here, but I never run into it.

Try eating one PBJ next time, and go easy on the PB. It's pointless to eliminate foods you love, especially when they're sitting there, staring you in the face. Eat it slow, and have carrots or a salad on the side to help fill you up while you get to enjoy the flavor of the sandwich.

Why not try alternating for a few weeks? Eat 2000 calories one day, then the next day give yourself 2500. It might help you feel less deprived. Eventually you'll get used to eating 2000, and the weight will keep coming off. Try going on a ten minute walk every day... Then start to increase it the easier it gets for you. It…

The worst part for me is that all of my company's clients send us gifts, always in the form of food. My coworkers and I ate so much fancy popcorn the other day we were all ready to barf. Such a pain...
