You say you've tried counting calories. Okay, but... Did you do it correctly? You said yourself probably not. So if you haven't tried counting calories correctly, then that's something new to try, isn't it? Also, for how long did you try counting calories? Was it a few days, a week, or even 2-3 weeks? Honestly, if it was…

Sunrise! Summer or winter?

YAY for all of the almond milk love! I <3 almond milk! My grocery list this weekend will probably consist of the following: Pita bread Turkey breast slices Tuna Baby spinach Bananas Strawberries Grapes Eggs Coffee and paper filters A couple canned soups Greek yogurt Seltzer water A little bottle of Naked juice Baby carrots…

Agreed! Platonic = absolutely NO desire to be more than friends by either party. I personally think that men and women can be platonic friends, but only when the friendship is not a super close one. But a BFF-type of friendship? No. Whenever men and women are THAT close of friends, there's ALWAYS at least one side wanting…

I've found a few *almost* twins in here! I wonder if I can find a PERFECT TWIN! :D Age: 25 Height: 5'4" SW: 178 CW: 132 GW: 120 Feel free to add me! :D

LOL at the bacon comment! :laugh: I'm Christian (non-denominational) :bigsmile: Yup, that's what they say. But do you always follow the rules?? :tongue: Hehe!

catrinah: Sweet, gorgeous, girl next door!

Good job! I now drink almost only water and that's mostly what I crave too! Nothing quenches your thirst like water! I used to be a Coca-Cola junkie lol! Now I rarely ever crave soda! Besides water, the only things I drink (in moderation, of course) are unsweetened teas, club soda (without the sodium), coffee (with very…

I feel the same way. My boobs are just sad now. It makes me want to cry. ;( Before I lost the weight, I was a 36D. I just got fitted again two weeks ago and I'm now between a 32C and 32D. I guess I still have something, but it feels like barely anything. My boobs are not only really small now, they're also saggy and not…

Ohh YAY! Finally people who appreciate my shortness hehe! I feel like all men prefer those tall and elegant women :( I'm 5'4" by the way.

PNOD: No, because I'm a little young for you lol.

You mean you honestly don't think you're being desperate?? You actually are chasing him and making something out of nothing. And you aren't "basically in a relationship" with him. You just met this guy not even two weeks ago. You are acquaintances and that's it. I'm going to be brutally honest with you because I think you…

Actually, I don't feel that way at all. And I don't think it's healthy to feel that way either. I would never want to commit to someone I just meet less than two weeks ago! I would barely even know him. What if he's a rapist, a pedophile, or serial killer?! Sheesh, that's crazy! I like to have somewhat of an idea of who…

Okay girl....WOAH!!! You've only known this guy for not even two weeks??!! You need to chill out! You're being WAY TOO CLINGY!!! (And your clinginess is probably turning him off.) Seriously, you don't even know this guy that well. He may be immature and his faith may even be fake for all you know. Or he may not be a good…

Height: 5'4" Age/Gender: 25/Female Highest weight: 178 lbs Current Weight: 132 lbs Current body fat: Approximately 24% Lowest weight: Before this current weight loss journey, 138 lbs. Right now I'm at the lowest weight I've ever been since puberty. (I was always a chunky kid lol!) Goal weight: Around 120 lbs, with some…

OP, I think overall your bf sounds like a good guy! As for me, I refuse to date men who are smaller than me in any way, shape, or form. I know it's superficial, but I don't care. I struggle way too much with my appearance and body image and I just can't handle or deal with a man who's smaller than me. So I refuse to.

Honestly if you're looking to spend only $5-$10, you're not going to be getting the best quality mascaras. There's going to be some clumping and flaking with ALL mascaras in that price range, though some are certainly better than others. That being said, I usually use drugstore mascaras in that price range (Maybelline…

I'm the same way! Unless I get literally like 10 hours or more of sleep, I always feel HORRIBLE for the first hour or two after I wake up. ALWAYS. I feel sick eating too soon after I wake up. Even just the thought of food makes my stomach feel kind of sick. Usually I wait until an hour or two after I wake up to eat…

Ohh, I hate it when people proclaim, "Marilyn Monroe was a size ___." It doesn't matter what size Marilyn Monroe was because the sizes back then were much different; they were much smaller. But you're right, Marilyn was quite small. Very curvy, but small. For anyone who's wondering (and to finally kill this myth that…

I never said it was okay to laugh. I never even said that I would find it funny. I just said that I would be able to understand the logic and the humor in his joke if he had said a bigger size.

That's exactly what I was thinking. I wouldn't be surprised AT ALL if this guy's wife was a 6 or an 8 and he just didn't realize it LOL!

Honestly, this guy's "joke" just demonstrates how clueless he is about women. If he had any real knowledge about women, he'd know that a size 8 generally isn't fat and that on some women (for instance, tall women) a size 8 can even be slim. Apparently a lot of people in here think his joke is funny. I don't see the humor…

The answer to all questions like "Can I eat X?" or "Is it healthy to eat X every day??": If it fits your macros. Seriously. Why is that concept so hard to understand?

LOL! Yes, it's true! Eating healthy (which includes eating with a calorie deficit) combined with light exercise like walking most days of the week WILL result in weight loss. In fact, I'm living proof that it works! My weight loss has been almost entirely due to a healthier diet, a calorie deficit, and light to moderate…

Honestly, keeping up with a 1200 calories/day diet is difficult for me. I can do it some days in a given week, but not EVERY day. No matter what type of foods I eat, I just don't feel satisfied throughout the day. I always feel hungry and weak. I feel much better at 1300-1400 calories/day. And on days that I exercise, I…

Dear 18-year-old self, First of all...don't date either one of those two guys in college. Yes, you learn a lot from the experiences, but they're just not worth it. Don't waste your time! Just focus on school and do your best! And don't stress so much about deciding what to major in or what you want to do with your life.…

This is to everyone who always says "muscle doesn't weigh more than fat, 1 lb of muscle weighs the exact same as 1 lb of fat!": You guys do realize that when people say "muscle weighs more than fat" they're talking about VOLUME, right?? Obviously 1 lb of anything equals 1 lb of anything else. Duh! But that's not what the…

Naples, FL checking in! :D

Feel free to add me! :D

Aww thanks! :D For you, Rae, definitely smile and hair. You have a gorgeous smile and such pretty hair!
