  • Ever since I found out I was gluten intolerant and stopped eating it, I have constant dreams about being force to eat gluten. It's weird.
  • I will never understand why people care so much (or at all) about bodies that are not theirs.
  • I'd agree that it's the calories. I drank red wine (still do) all throughout my weight loss and it didn't have a negative impact. You're also more likely to snack or eat things you normally wouldn't when you drink.
  • Poor sleep quality can be a form of insomnia, which has a variety of causes. I get the same kind of sleep that you do and I also wake up every 45 minutes to an hour. So while I'm "sleeping" for 8 hours a night I never, or very rarely, go into REM sleep. The only thing that helps me is taking an OTC sleeping aid. You could…
  • I don't care about food either. Everyone hates asking me where we should eat since my answer is always "I don't care" I am literally fine eating whatever. I always joke that if I lived alone I'd starve to death since I'd forget to eat. Thinking about it just now, the only food I'm into is candy. That is my down fall.…
  • Typically I drink about a gallon of just water a day.
  • I had a few rounds of steroid injections and I gained a lot of weight during that time. I'm not sure if it was directly related to the steroids or the fact that I couldn't move that much. Besides the weight gain I also had a bunch of other side effects that caused me to tell my doctor to never give me steroids again. I had…
  • I think my problem was looking at food as a luxury. Growing up we were very poor. We got a lot of food from charity and were on government assistance. There wasn't a lot of eating out and the food we did have wasn't much. So when I got older and had my own money, I saw eating out as some what of a special thing that I…
  • My husband had to lose weight to get his blood pressure down (he was on the fast track to a heart attack) so I started the journey with him. I honestly feel the same as I did before. The physical part of weight loss was easy for me. The mental part is very hard.
  • I'm not hungry when I wake up so I've never been a breakfast person. The only thing I can think about is coffee.
  • I got fat by not knowing a damn thing about what I was putting in my mouth. Once I took the time to educate myself about food and how my body responded to it, it's easy to eat "clean". I went from eating fast food multiple times a day (and feeling like crap) to an almost exclusive plant based diet (and feel much better) I…
  • I'm 5'3" and only buy my jeans from Wet Seal. Their "short" size is the perfect length. Most of their jeans are skinny but they have a few that are boot cut I believe.
  • I stopped counting calories when I began to fear them. It wasn't healthy for me to keep going down that road and was leading into bad territory. It's been about 6 months since I stopped and while I haven't lost any more weight, I don't look at food as being bad anymore. I just eat when I'm hungry and allow myself to eat…
  • Maybe I walk slow but I only burn about 60 calories per mile. I'm also not sure how much walking is involved with schools and stuff like that but it can't be anything worth counting. At least not for me personally.
  • I'm a 5'3 female and I burn about 1000 calories by biking 20 miles at a pretty fast pace. Walking around campus and the average workout will get you no where near that. She needs to figure out how much she's really burning (not counting the walking) and how much she's really eating since something is not right.
  • I lost 80lbs, and maintain it, while having red wine every day.
  • You really don't see the problem with that?
  • It sounds like you lost weight just to throw it in everyone's face to get back at anyone who's said anything mean about you. And it's not going to well. Good luck with that.
  • Maybe they just don't care.
  • 5'3". Currently around 130. I was down to 120 a few months ago and I'd probably like to go down to around 110 or so. I started at 200+.
  • Resting ranges from 90-108. Never measured during activity but I'd imagine it gets pretty high.
  • Obviously since they are apart of our bodies we'd care about them more than men do. I know it's a wild concept but a lot of women actually care about their looks because of themselves, not men. As to the op, it's something I'd do if i had the money and time. I was probably larger than a DD before I lost 80lbs (I don't know…
  • Pretty sure he's saying that Buddha was fat....
  • wine. coffee. barley. tomatoes. onions. kale. garlic.
  • Forever 21 was my best friend while losing weight. When something cost $10 it's easier to justify donating it once it doesn't fit.
  • I'm not vegetarian but I eat meat on vary rare occasions. For every day meals I eat a lot of grains/beans (quinoa, barley, lentils) with veggies. I've never been big into dairy as it makes me break out so I eat a little bit of cheese but that's pretty much it. When I started getting healthier I would eat a few ounces of…
  • 200ish at 5'3". I stopped looking at the scale when I would get weighed at the doctors office and didn't dare weigh myself so I'm not sure of the exact number. Might have been higher.
  • I put brown sugar, raisins, apple butter and peanut butter in mine. Sometimes even jam. I usually eat that for dessert though. Strawberries are really good for adding sweetness if you don't want to add additional sugar.
  • I'm on Depo and have lost 80lbs. I don't recall if I gained weight when I started taking it because I was also getting steroid injections around the same time, which did make me gain a whole lot of weight. Besides no period at all I have no other side effects from it and love it. It's the only birth control method I've…
