It's nice to have a tool to gauge if someone's an a-hole or not, isn't it? Looks like you found out what side of the fence your co-workers on. I was able to identify the people who weren't happy for me and have reduced their role in my life. And am better off for it. It's an obvious difference, and you look beautiful.…

I love them with laughing cow cheese or sour cream added. YUM.

I hate all pants. I mostly wear skirts and leggings. Pants feel so confining!

I love the 5"2" threads! :) Height: 5"2" Age/Gender: 37/Female Highest Weight: 172 Current Weight: 145.4 Goal Weight: 130 Ultimate Goal Weight: 120 BMI: 26.6 BF%: 26.8% My goal is to hit 140 by early-October. Everything came off fast at first, and slowed down around June. I started MFP 12/26/12. Feel free to add me if…

My mom has said things to me along the lines of "Look you have a big belly like your mom!" or "Enjoy your 30's it's all downhill from here"... and growing up would say I need to look more like a certain skinny friend, or always point out when I gained weight (once in front of my boyfriend, now husband). All these things…

I love glasses! Except mine are always slipping off my nose, making me feel nerdy.

I also see this is an older thread, and FR'd a few of you. I am also here and open to talking about my experiences with this issue off-board.

I love this. When I first started MFP I remember looking in the mirror and feeling disgusted. Saying out loud, "how could ANYONE love you, you're disgusting." and believing it. I equated love and self-love with a positive self-image for so long that I really believed it. When I look back and remember saying that to my…

Here is my favorite way! 1/2 cup Old Wessex 5-grain cereal some water 1 tsp cinnamon Microwave 2 minutes. Add a little milk (2%, but almond is good too) Let sit for 2 minutes, stir Add 1 tsp honey and fresh fruit (strawberries and peaches are my favorites)

Wasn't something they said, but did -- I was walking outside my job and a man in a van drove by me and whistled and waved a fistful of cash at me.

Happiness.

Not as much as I used to. Maybe once every other day, down from 2-3/x a day. I can't resist my homemade pizza!

My son recently asked for Broccoli as a bedtime snack. I almost wept with joy. :bigsmile: Your girl sounds like a good eater!

We don't really do desserts at my house at all. I want my son (almost age 4) to eat because a) he's hungry; b) he likes his food; and c) because it's what's being served -- with no other incentive. I don't deny him sweets entirely -- sometimes he gets juice pops, graham crackers, and when I am feeling extra indulgent a…

Holy crap, I saw this thread and had to reply. I often think I have the pickiest kid ever (age 3 & 1/2). He won't eat normal stuff like other kids. And I never, ever have fed him junk. We have given him nutritious, minimally-processed food from since he started solids. There's absolutely no candy, treats are TREATS (read:…

I read about the health risks and it scared me. So I stopped!

I love seltzer too but the carbonation makes me gassy/bloated. I like water better!

I am on month 5 of no pop/cola! You can do it too! I used to be super addicted.

My wonderful husband :heart:

I make mine with toasted almonds and cilantro which is yummy!

Pop Tarts aren't food. They're edible chemicals. I'd rather eat food. The pizza, however.... oh.

There's some great mixed greens blends out there. I am super turned on to the Earthbound Farms Herb Salad mix lately. Try adding some of your favorite crumbled cheese for flavor, and/or sauteed chicken for added flavor. Add in lots of multi-color veggies and you have a super healthy lunch. (I don't even add dressing, the…

I can not cook without mine. Best $6 I ever spent. Someone else said they wouldn't take it into restaurants, but I think this is actually a great idea (when appropriate)! I might sneak mine in with me when I can. (Let's see if my husband takes me out to eat after that, though... haha).

I bought a skirt a month ago in a size medium and forgot to return it because it was too tight. My pants got all wet on my way to work today, and I remembered I tucked away the skirt under my desk. Slipped it on and it fits great :) No returns!

My husband took this pic of me (left side) back in December when I started. I felt so depressed when I saw it because I felt like there would never be any nice pictures of me and my son. Now that I've lost half the weight I want to (20 lb), I no longer have neckchin (or chinneck?) and pics come out better (profile pic was…

Soda & Cold Cuts -- both cut out 100% because I see them as harmful to my overall health. Significantly reduced intake of indulgent, but not totally harmful, foods: -Pizzeria Pizza -Ice Cream/Cookies -Snacks (chips, pretzels) -Beer/Wine -Subway -Pancakes Also, as some others mentioned, I stopped eating my son's leftovers.…

Someone told me: Eat for four days of the week and drink nothing but milk the other 3 ... :sick:

Black Metal !! \m/ I love King Diamond & Mercyful Fate the best both who I've seen play live many times. Also love classic metal along the lines of Iron Maiden, Megadeth, Black Sabbath (I know, not really metal), Candlemass, Manowar, etc. Surprisingly never was a huge fan of Slayer, but am super bummed about Jeff Hanneman.…

I put lemon juice on most of the green veggies I steam and that helps the taste a lot! Sauteed Kale, spinach. Steamed green beans and asparagus. I like sauteeing broccoli in a little teriyaki sauce with sesame seeds (great source of calcium). My recent fave is sauteed yellow squash in a little (just a little!) bit of…

Breakfast: Medium whole milk latte and a pastry Lunch: Subway buffalo chicken sandwich with double cheese and ranch sauce, bag of chips, and soda Dinner: 2 slices of pizza Then cookies or ice cream and more soda Maybe some snacks before bed. I was eating high-fat foods a LOT and drinking lots of diet soda. I'd eat ice…
