Of course you can get milk by other, kinder methods! But the eggs, milk, etc in your typical packed/boxed foods or food you order at restaurants unfortunately can't be trusted to be from the same kind sources. I would be eating the eggs from my partner's father's ducks if I didn't get a severe case of food poisoning from…

:flowerforyou:

Oh, and I definitely agree with you on this one AJ_G. I wouldn't force any diet on my child, I'd leave it entirely up to them to decide as and when they're ready, same with religion and any other personal choice.

...What? Just because we've been doing it for ages doesn't make it natural at all, it's just something we've learnt to do. Seriously, what creep looked at a cow's udder and went "Yum, I wanna suck on that!". More to the point, what other animal enslaves another species for it's milk or eggs? No other species treats others…

On the breastfeeding point.. No animals are exploited in order for the baby to drink milk from it's own mother, it's natural for a species to drink the milk of it's parent while in infancy. It isn't natural to artificially impregnate other species and steal the milk intended for their baby :smile:

I have mine open because I like looking at other peoples for food ideas and to see how others go about things, so I figure I may as well return the favour. Though I doubt my diary would inspire anyone :laugh:

THIS THIS THIS.

I'd have to agree chick, sounds to me a little like the makings of an eating disorder, and you definitely don't want that! See someone who can help you stop obsessing with calorie counting and being "good". Time to get you enjoying your food in a normal way again!

Really interesting info, thanks for sharing! I've been thinking about going raw vegan in the Summer just to try it as I know on my "cleaner" days I do feel much better than days where it's pasta and pre-packaged food left right and centre. I barely fancy anything cooked when it's hot anyway so I'm definitely keen to try it…

Scar :tongue:

Avocado! Everyone raves about it but I just find it pasty and weird.

I don't think it'd help with facial fat, but I'm not an expert.. Just get some little 10lb or 5lb weights at first and see how you go. I really like this video from Tiffany Roathe (in fact all her stuff is great) http://youtu.be/Lsj-Q7oNcEA It was my first experience of lifting weights of any kind and oh my god, did it…

Woah, what a difference! The incredible shrinking woman. You look absolutely gorgeous, keep it up :flowerforyou:

Hiya, feel free to add me, I follow a vegan diet. I don't always eat clean, I try to keep a balance of veggies and "junk" food because it keeps my mind and body happy :smile:

Pack your own food or make sensible decisions on what food is available e.g. burger minus cheese and mayo. Alternatively, eat the junk but work out more. I wouldn't worry too much though, long as you fit within your calories for the day or even go over just a wee bit, you're doing fine :bigsmile:

I lost a bunch of weight a few years ago in a massively short amount of time. I got below 100lbs, which is horribly underweight on my 5'5" frame, and guess what? I still had excess fat because all that had happened was my body ate away all my muscles and left me "skinny fat". I'm around 118lbs now and my arms and waist are…

I love old school FPS (Quake is my forever love, don't care how ancient the graphics are :heart: ) and I'm a forever Buffy nerdling.

Coffee and multiseed bread :love:

Of course not! I find I feel "cleaner" when I eat "clean", but I can't live like that 24/7! No way. I need a beer at the end of the week and instant ramen noodles for no reason other than fancying some :smile:

I usually pre-log breakfast and lunch for weekdays, these are my super healthy veggie-full meals, and leave dinner and weekends open to play with and have what I fancy :smile:

"he has the nerve to tell me that if I lose the weight that he will leave me" Honestly, this sounds like the words of an insecure man who's scared you'll lose weight, get fit, become a hottie, and suddenly find some gorgeous buff guy to run off into the sunset with. Or maybe it simply makes him feel inferior for not…

Biiig veggie curries! Stir fry using rice noodles. Chilli using various types of beans and green lentils instead of mince. Pasta sauces made using plum tomatoes, chopped tomatoes, and coconut milk to taste.. Get creative! Take your favourite vegetarian or meaty meals and think about what you can use to replace the…

It varies massively. My partner recently had a vegetable pizza that was around 600kcals, yet I've also seen them around the 2000kcals mark (bare in mind I'm from the U.K. and we don't generally get pizzas as big as in the U.S, they're usually 12" or smaller!).

1) Wine. I sit with people who taste it going "mmmm fruity, nice!", I take a sip and all I taste is bitterness. It makes me sad. I want to like it I just can't. 2) Avocado 3) X Factor etc. 4) Uggs (just, no) 5) Leggings as trousers/pants (I CAN SEE YOUR KNICKERS PLEASE PUT A SKIRT ON)

I never liked McDonalds or any fast food burgers when I was a raving meat/cheese eater, dunno why it just always tasted weird. Having said that, I will gorge on a big serving of Maccy D fries, just because potato :heart:

Hiya! I'm from West Wales, nearly at maintenance (the scary bit, eep!). Add me :flowerforyou:

Ah okay, I figured there probably was a reason! :tongue: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8CRUrRekOQ http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YaJryQEsT94 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f2khCb9iRSg On a quick YouTube search I found those :) Maybe get an exercise bike, or an indoor bike training stand? My dad's a triathlete and uses…

Is it out of the question to go out for a run or a bike ride..? :smile:

My partner adds 75g peanut butter, 250ml milk, 1 banana, 50g rolled oats, and for a while he was adding honey (doesn't affect calories much but tastes nice!)
