  • Same! I need to lose way more than that actually, but I'm starting small lol
  • I would love a mentor! My backstory is in my About Me. If you feel like we could be a good match please message me
  • Pretty similar story here! Add me :smile:
  • Tbh, she does look healthy. I think she could stand to gain a few pounds, but that's just my personal opinion. I'm in my 20s and my mom is nearing 60 and we share clothes. And while my mother is outstandingly fit, she is by no means stick thin. I think given Bethanny's height, it makes sense for her to fit into kid…
  • Yea, I'm kinda pissed that it came out only now as opposed to spring. And I thought the collection would have been bigger. Don't think it was worth the wait, still debating on that price, but I'm leaning towards no =/ Brass changes colour over time, right? I've looked on Etsy, and I'm not having that much luck. I don't…
  • This is very true. Not saying this is the be all end all rule, but I got this way by hanging out at the food court/restaurant and sitting on my couch. I've decided to haul my rear to my make shift home gym or my neighbourhood bike path in order to be one of those skinny people at the gym. Don't hate, congratulate!
  • I eat D'Italiano whole wheat bread. It's 160 cals for 2 slices. I use to eat Villagio white for 180 cals per 2 slices. I'm sure there are breads with less calories, but I think you will easily find those two in your regular big box grocery stores. But you can also think of what type of cals you're getting from the bread. I…
  • Welcome Add me if you'd like :)
  • I completed about 3 weeks and then started rotating different exercises as I was getting kinda bored. I do it about 3-4 times a week, but wouldn't mind starting up 6 days a week again. You can add me to your group or as a friend :)
  • Thank you @Tendersound for the tips. I have thyroid issues, and I think I have PCOS, but have not been properly diagnosed by a doctor. I think I'm going to get a blood test done this week to confirm my suspicions. It's definitely hard to lose, but it's possible! After 2 weeks I stopped seeing the numbers on the scale move,…
  • If it's within my calories, yes. I'll eat at 3 am for all I care. However, I won't eat an hour or 2 before bed because the food doesn't digest properly.
  • This is great advice http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/818082-exercise-calories-again-wtf p.s I eat half or more back, but never all
  • Maxed out my internet usage, so I'm waiting for my month to roll over so I can watch lol
  • My SO is probably the only person that I will allow to criticize me on my weight. I am VERY defensive when it comes to anyone else. He is my inspiration because he's so fit (be it his metabolism is crazy fast so his problems are far from mine). I know he means well, and wants to see me happy and healthy, as opposed to just…
  • I use hummus that is 90 cals for 2 tbsp which is enough to spread on two slices of bread. They come in different flavours like jalepeno, roasted garlic, onion etc. I believe you can also make your own hummus. But if you're looking for 0 cals, mustard is the way to go.
  • It's open to friends only, but I've been considering changing it to strictly open. Initially I made the decision for privacy and the embarrassment of eating a pizza for dinner. Anyhow, I don't think I care so much anymore. But I will say that I'm overall a private person even IRL.
  • Thanks a bunch! That's a relief, and I'll let him know :)
  • Think it was said in sarcasm.
  • Maybe that was my fault. I guess I am losing. My mistake is thinking that weight would be falling off of me because I have so much to lose. But I guess 7 pounds in less than a month isn't bad. And that's 7 pounds with me not eating at my best, so that's my fault. But thank you kindly for the links, I will look through all…
  • If I can speak on the subject, I will gladly give advice. I honestly don't know squat about vegans etc., so I would not comment on a post like that. I'm pretty sure most newbs can't give advice for this very reason. I'm trying to lose weight and have not yet been successful, so really I can only comment on my journey so…
  • I think mainly everybody needs to judge the sole person, and not the whole group. Do not make broad assumptions based on stereotypes. As a newbie, I have seen newbies act.... "less than smart." When the OP started this thread, we cannot assume she is one of these newbies unless you go through each and every post of hers. I…
  • Already started, but I've been off it for a few days. I won't make excuses. I'd love to start back again. You should make a group!
  • OMG, can't believe I missed it!
  • So you are actively trying to break someone's morale as stated by you and don't see how that is perceived as mean? Other's "emotional weaknesses" are not your problem? So that means I can tell someone over the internet "go kill yourself," and if they do, I have no part in the blame because they are emotionally weak? So if…
  • Hated it as a kid, but have grown fond of it now that I have to have it. I have low iron, and it happens to have a lot of that. I do however use the instant packets. Some say the oats in the big bag are better. Don't know the truth to that, so if someone knew that'd be awesome.
  • WOW, this was so well done! Biggest thank you. I've been trying to understand this for YEARS. I don't know what you said that made it click in my head. Someone should sticky this.
  • Those people can buzz off. I agree, that is not your fault. But there are people on MFP that are straight up rude, whether you are one of them I don't know. So far I don't believe so, but I can see how your words can be perceived as such. I think the OP meant like the straight up rude people. And full disclosure, the…
  • But I do have experience giving advice, given not so much on mfp. Maybe I'll change that, but I can only give advice on things I know about. The reason I only have 15 pieces of advice (by your count, never really have gone through my posts) is because I do not wish to contribute to things to which I have no knowledge…
  • AND, what are macros? Sorry if that sounds super dumb. When I search it on google I get software stuff. And how does he know if he's getting enough? He joined mfp actually (yay!) Let's see if he takes it seriously though.
