Bolding is mine. I think you need some more assistance than this place can offer. Eating nothing is the very definition of disordered eating.

Are you for real serious? Because when I put stuff in my purse, my purse looks bigger because there's stuff in it. If you put food in your stomach, it will get bigger. It's sort of a duh.

If you bought the big caps, you can grill or cook them like a burger and eat them on a bun. Mmmmm.

See, that's why people are pissed. I'm not lazy just because I don't want to waste my life trying to look like a fitness model. You do not have to look like her to be healthy. Being a size two with washboard abs does NOT equal healthy. I don't care what other people do, but insinuating someone is "lazy" because they have…

I have a US code. Enjoy. KAYS552QB

See, but marriage isn't about "love." Marriage is about commitment and family. Sometimes, your spouse will really irritate you and sometimes, you won't want to even look at them. But you committed to them, to you try again and rekindle those feelings by changing your behavior. Also "love" is not, in my opinion, a noun.…

Here's my opinion. Take with several grains of salt and tequila. If your vows say until death? That's what it means. Unless spouse breaks other vows, is unfaithful or violent, or they leave you despite your best efforts, etc, everything else can be overcome if you are willing to work with it. If you don't like that vow,…

I can't agree completely as I just turned 38 and this is the first time in my life I've lost weight intentionally. I think sometimes women are afraid to do the things that are really effective in making their bodies burn fat, namely rebuilding the muscle that is lost as we age and become more sedentary. You have to make a…

I like my husband. It's why I married him. I also know SEVERAL people who divorced and remarried the same person. Lots of people regret getting divorced. Don't assume. I'm not saying everyone is suited together or to be married at all, but a fairy tale it isn't. Being married is WORK.

Reading thread while eating hashbrowns and tangerines. Carry on kids. This is amusing.

I've never been to a gym that's not like this. I hear there are fabled places that are different, but I assume they are on Mars. I train in my basement because I have zero time for dude bros.

Since I'm already hungry....

Crap. I'm fat again. Must be my thyroid.

I made bacon maple cupcakes this weekend. And ate them.

How do you know this? I'm confused.

I got my wedding dress specifically to show off my tattoos. It was MY wedding after all. :)

It depends on how you determine your calorie budget. If you use the MFP method and say choose "sedentary" and then exercise, you should eat back. If you choose some form of active, and do double your normal workout, eat back. If you use a TDEE- % method, then its already built in, so you don't. This is covered ad nauseum…

I have a kettlebell and a weight bench, but honestly, you can do a lot with just a kettlebell in a short amount of time. Even just starting slow (which is what I'm doing) with kettlebell swings? Let me tell you, I can work out pretty hard in 10-35 minutes, depending on the day, while my kid watches TV after dinner. And my…

I suggest looking into oven roasting. That's my fave. I love it for cauliflower, asparagus, green beans, brussel spouts. Mmmmm.

Just remember, a lot of us were trained that food = love and affection. That's what the food pushing is about. Take the sentiment accordingly and return the loving, even if you aren't eating something you don't want. :)

I have a Jawbone UP. I like it, but its just a pedometer with sleep tracking and a silent alarm. It's not helpful to track other types of exercise. I still think its super helpful for me, just to sort of keep an eye on myself.

I just did that and I'm now replaying DA2. I can't wait for Inquisition!

My c-section was 2.5 years ago and yes, my lower abs feel a bit odd, but the sensation gets less pronounced as I'm working them. I hope it will go away eventually...I just wish I could hope for sensation in the skin again, but I think that's too much to hope for.

Hey bb.

I think the routine looks good, but ask your doctor, not us, if that's in the range of what he feels its safe that you do right now. Lifting does no good if you are sick.

No. Water doesn't do that. Wine has calories. Count them and make sure they fit into the amount you need to get to your goal. Bam, problem solved. In other words, unless you never want to drink wine again, don't give it up.

They have calories, so I guess I don't see how not counting them makes sense. They are low in calories, but in the end its still calories in calories out. *shrug*

I love fish, but I hate tilapia and swai. They just taste like nothing to me. I prefer cod, salmon, tuna steaks, perch, trout, etc. They are all different though, and can use different cooking methods. If you don't care what it tastes like or if it has taste, I'm sure those will be fine though.

+1 I love slow cooker venison stew and steaks on the grill that are still practically prancing around....
