Good luck, guys!

The only person I know who has undergone this procedure is a scoundrel, so my perception may be coloured a touch. She demonstrated what I had suspected of people who undergo the procedure: she wasn't yet overweight enough to qualify, so instead of trying to get in shape, she ramped up her bad eating until she had gained…

I wilt it and put it in mini quiches with turkey bacon and onions.

This. Successfully losing weight in long term isn't some fad you just pick up for a few weeks, it's a lifestyle change. If you're putting it off by doing this instead of just grabbing the bull by the horns and getting on with it, you might end up wasting some time.

Can always make it into sandwiches!

Not really hot sauce, but Mrs Renfro's Habanero Salsa is divine.

Beet greens, white beans, avocado, and potatoes all have higher levels of potassium than bananas, and less sugar. Oh sneezies, you rascal.

Digestion of anything with sugar in it causes blood sugar spikes of some level; good luck if you're trying to pursue a diet free of sugars and carbohydrates.

Tzatziki is absolutely my Achilles heel. I make it with non fat yoghurt so I don't feel as bad having it. No English cucumbers in the market this week, so I'll have to do without! :(

It depends on the availability in the area. I am fortunate enough to work and live where there are year round farmer's markets four times a week. Fresh (and a selection of non organic or organic) and cheap produce for me is never far. But when I used to live on the other side of town and didn't work downtown, I never would…

Taco Bell. I could put away three chalupas and a chicken quesadilla (1640 calories and 3g of sodium!) in one sitting! Just the idea makes me feel ill.

Water and sleep. Boyfriend swears by fish and rice.

I would use yoghurt, but I don't care for the taste of mayonnaise anyhow.

I'm less than five feet tall and store weight around my hips, where my pantline is. When I started losing weight, that was where it was happening the most at first (I do a ton of pliés every other day). I used to wear an 8 when I was at 126, and bought some 2s yesterday, which are somewhat loose. I'm not sure how much more…

The first weight I lost was around my hips, so it was natural for my pants to go down quickly. 20 pounds on a small frame is a ton. :(

German Chocolate for the win.

I usually don't. I touch my face way too much. Never fails, the day I wear make up, I reach up and rub my eye and... blergh.

Maybe he ran out of patience...

3rd for bento boxes! Really good at portioning and a nice canvas for creativity.

I've lost 20 pounds and almost 4 pant sizes.

I liked him in L4yer Cake, but not as James Bond.

You may have been told not to take more than one a day because of a condition you may have (liver condition, high blood pressure, on MAOIs, have a family history of stroke). The doctor will just defer to what the instructions in your pill pack say. You don't need a back up method if you miss one (although peace of mind is…

Don't let your moron friends talk you into doing things you shouldn't be doing, because we will find out and you will not like it.

I learned I don't fit a four any longer, I fit a two.

My uncle's trashy wife exclaimed I had gained a lot of weight when I saw her on Labour Day last year. I was horrified and super embarrassed I just went home and cried, especially considering I've always been considered the "skinny one". I've never been told anything remotely like that before, so it was an unpleasant…

This. Too many females snipe at each other, do we need to add another petty thing like this to the list?
