  • For me, it's clothes. Every time I want to buy a snack, I put that money away for my goal prize spending. I like to think entire outfit rather than just one piece. So, I'll buy a cute pair of shorts or something for my first goal, a shirt to go with it on the next time I meet a goal, and so on. Whatever you treat yourself…
  • Luckily, Sundays are my fattycake days, so I'm going to devour everything. I get sick every Easter anyway, so I'm not gonna ignore my candy. I don't have the Easter meal anyway, so one day of candy won't hurt me. :) I'll probably get full after a handful of jellybeans anyway. Sugar makes me feel stuffed!
  • "Is she anorexic?" And "Holocaust victim". But the worst came from my doctor who, when commenting on my fat ratio said, "You're pretty fat for a skinny girl." It's true, I have/had terrible junk-food eating habits and never exercise, but it still hurt. Got that a lot. Crohn's sufferer, and it took a long time to diagnose.…
  • I find that changing your habits is the best thing. When I watched TV or played games I would munch on waaaaay to much. So I made it a rule to eat ONLY at the dinner table. No food in other rooms, which was a rule for me when I was a messy little kid. Instead, I'll just have tea or coffee (black) or water. No more mindless…
  • Oh god, PSO and Skies of Arcadia? Couldn't have made better choices! LOVE them! I guess you can't NOT mention Final Fantasy, but eh, I prefer IX and earlier, excluding 8 because shut up Squall you emo turd. How about the Mana series? So good! But, you know... I have a weakness for the Tales Of series. They kinda suck…
  • Playing Bravely Default. Interesting JRPG. Was on Battlefield 4 for a while, but I got sidetracked trying to do extra work here and there to get an XBOne. Gonna get Titanfall!
  • Oooomg the beta consumed my weekends! I am trying SO HARD to afford this game. I haven't stuck with an MMO for so long, but I neeeed this. Until PSO2 comes out, anyway. Gonna make an ugly Orc girly! :3 I built a custom gaming rig, so I'm finally going to be able to use it for what it was meant to do!
  • It's okay to flaunt as long as you're not doing it to make somebody else feel bad. Just be appropriate about it. Maybe you wore short-shorts and crop-tops in high school/college, but some 30-something woman shouldn't be wearing kid's clothes IMO. A back-revealing dress or a wispy dress belted at the waist with some nice…
  • Oh dear, I know how you feel. I hope somebody has a good tip, because mine have ALWAYS been fat. Always. Even if I'm stick thin, my knees are chubby. I was told that it's just my body type. Dunno if it's changeable. No amount of cardio or strength training has ever changed it, so I just accept my squishy knees. BUT if…
  • My type of date? Gamer type. Somebody who can sit on their *kitten* for a an entire run through the Resident Evil series. Somebody who can play Battlefield and not rage quit. Somebody who can appreciate the nearly 30 years Nintendo has put into developing the lore behind The Legend of Zelda. Somebody who thinks a pizza and…
  • I'm sorry you're dealing with this, OP. I know how frustrating it can be. But, always look at the situation from both sides. From his view point, you're taking care of everybody EXCEPT yourself. That would bother me, too. You're busy being a working mom, but taking all the responsibility for kids and home isn't fair. Both…
  • You don't need to spend money on anything other than food. Healthy food. Fill empty milk containers with water and lift them. Run and walk. Try a fitness band. If you can't figure out a workout routine on your own and really need to exercise with a video, then hit up YouTube and find one of the many fitness buffs. Somebody…
  • Don't punish yourself. That leads to disorders. Just acknowledge your weakness and find a way to combat it. Sweets? Eat an apple. Chocolate? Magnesium. Get rid of things that you find yourself binging on. Don't beat yourself up. One unhealthy day won't make you fat just like one healthy day won't make you thin. Walk/run…
  • Don't know what to tell you. Some people react to natural remedies better than what's currently on the market in terms of medicine. Some are the opposite. You should discuss it with your doctor or seek out a homeopathic doctor. If you have these mental issues, you shouldn't be putting yourself at risk by consuming things…
  • I *love* cauliflower bread! Can't believe I never considered using it for pizza! Looks yummy. Will have to try it out!
  • But what are you actually eating? 1200 calories in cheesecake (just an example) and 1200 calories in fruits and veggies is going to have a major difference, you know? Cut the bread, cut the sugars. You'll be in for some intense cravings, but after about a month you won't crave 'em anymore.
  • You don't NEED to count, really. It just helps you to keep track of things. It's really the process of keeping an eye on what you're consuming that helps in weight loss. But, if you already know not to over-eat, to avoid fast food, avoid fattycakes, etc, then you can pretty much eat and eat and still lose weight. Fruits…
  • I used to have such a terrible binge-eating problem. Truthfully, I've always been skinny-mini. Most people think I'm underweight, but my BMI is off the charts because I'm the dreaded "skinny fat," which I became from binge eating. My brother and I used to eat a box of donuts EACH every morning before school. We're just…
  • I'd say it depends on your life-style. Calories are a measurement of energy, and the energy you don't use is saved for later in fat. Burn more than you consume is what most people stick to when trying to lose weight. If you're sedentary, then I would definitely NOT eat what you burned.
  • Don't know what to tell you. Boobs are mostly fat, so you're likely going to lose SOME size there. I personally am so flat that I don't require a bra at all, so I can't really know how you might feel losing them. But, on the bright side, smaller chests are (and have been) in fashion lately, plus they could actually make…
  • My first tip would be to avoid the milk and use almond milk instead. WAY less calories, tastes pretty much the same if you get unsweetened, which is what I use. If you need flavor, get chocolate or vanilla. Both are delicious (and guilt-free IMO). My second tip is to think smoothie, not milkshake. I have milkshake cravings…
  • Are you SURE? Maybe you've lost fat weight and gained muscle weight from the exercise. I'm going to assume you want to lose FAT, not necessarily weight. Did you take any measurements beforehand? Try logging those and see if you're losing inches versus losing pounds. I'm the same height (5'2") and would like to be at 98…
