I can do Zumba (sort of, but I'm trying!) I can fit size small shirts and perhaps size 6 pants (haven't tested the theory yet, but my size 8s are kind of floppy now) I discovered I can make a good cheesecake (using a pie crust, not a spring form pan). Kinda the opposite of a weight loss, healthy eating thing, but I never…

I'm a freak :laugh: 1) Pair of underwear? Um.... 8 I guess? 2) Pairs of shoes? Two-a pair of hiking shoes and a pair of ankle boots. Getting winter boots in a week or two. 3) Jeans Two-one I love, one that is just ok. Also two pairs of 'dress' pants-one for being out and about and one for exercising (but they're too big…

Thankfully, no. I've heard many a horror story, but our relationship is actually getting better because hubby jumped on board the health train a couple months after I did and once he did, his mood (in general) improved, his confidence got better and... well, bedtime has been.... interesting :smokin: Perhaps if I had done…

Pumpkin pie is way up there along with apple and blueberry. And chocolate peanut butter pie is soooo good, but sooooo terrible on the food diary XD. I really like apple crisp and strawberry-rhubarb crisp too. And as for meal pies, I make a good chicken pot pie and a good meat pie. :smile:

I'm learning how to make that this year, calorie count BE DAMNED!! :laugh:

I made good pumpkin cookies-100 cal each and they taste nummy. Pumpkin cream cheese muffins aren't bad on calories either and they're great for breakfast.

Gamer gal here! Particularly love RPGs like Final Fantasy, Chrono Trigger, Secret of Mana, Lost Odyssy, Tales of... series, but also racing games like Mario Kart and Top Gear, plenty of Mario games (Paper Mario series and Mario 64 being my favorites), Kirby games, Legend of Zelda every once in a while, tactics…

I've heard pretty impractical and inaccurate, mostly because *all* it takes into account is weight and height, not muscle mass. I use BMI as one indicator (because doctors do), but measurements such as waist to hip ratio are better as are body fat percentage calculators. www.fat2fitradio.com <---that has some good…

I'm interested :D Not sure if I'll succeed, but I could use the push to try!

Ichiban yesterday, eccchhh! What a waste of calories :(

I only *don't* see the Size 12/14 girl if I look at myself by accident :laugh: (I'm now a size 8) But I've only been at it since March and many people here seem to think it takes longer. I wouldn't worry about it; just enjoy it!

I like ALL Cheerios and oat bran or corn bran and sometimes Froot Loops (don't judge me! :D) I used to love the Apple Cinnamon Oatmeal Crisp, but it's gone now :(. Oh and Honeycomb too and sometimes Lucky Charms or the Strawberry Special K, ha ha! I eat a lot of cold cereal since it's quick and easy.

I never HAD big boobs :blushing: , instead when I was overweight, they would just get kinda lumped in with everything else. Now that I've lost a good deal of my stomach, I almost seem to have larger boobs again just cause nothing's blocking the view ;)

-He's always supported me-through university, through my rocky writing career, through pregnancy and labor (and believe me, I was a difficult person for those nine months XD) and in everything else I've wanted to try -He works incredibly hard to provide for us and let me pursue my writing at home -He's a real family man…

I don't think I've eaten breakfast alone (except maybe a muffin once in a while), but lunch certainly. It's relaxing! I used to do it frequently in university and still do it every so often when I really want some time to myself.

Well, I'm not a guy, but I've never felt like having glasses has detracted from my appearance. Indeed, I've worn them for so long (14+ years now) that I've been told I look odd without them XD

Certainly do! Chocolate chip cookies (I found a recipe to make soft ones, om nom!), ice cream (Skinny Cow cups are da bomb!), the occasional Mars bar, muffins, DQ sundaes or blizzards on date night (or cheesecake!). And of course, my hot chocolate infused coffees in the morning and evening. And I've lost over 40lbs since…

Meatballs (allrecipes.com, Nirvana Meatballs) and I'm having peas with them while hubby has a meatball sub (he's been saving calories, lol).

5'7" (27 years old) and I have a net goal of 1550 calories/day (1lb/week) and I've been losing steadily on that for a few months now :) It's where I'm most comfortable eating wise and exercise, though I have the occasional binge days, lol! I net between 1300 and 1510. Moving to 1.5 lbs/week has become a bit unsustainable…

:D Absolutely loved this; it was fantastic :)

Don't DO anything; just keep doing what you want to do. I was on MFP for months before my husband joined-I didn't nag, didn't fuss, didn't bother-he did it on his own. Now he's dropped around 20lbs and is committed to eating better and exercising more. Just lead by example :)

Hmmm, fad diets going old school I see @@

We have the most docile Black Lab/Husky cross in the world, lol! She was a rescue. We also have two cats of indeterminate breeding (though we think one is part Siamese)

Eh, depends on the mood of the animals. Our oldest cat will sometimes sleep with us-especially if it's cold out. Our other cat sleeps with my sister, but she'll nap on my bed. The new dog won't sleep on furniture at all (old owners must have trained it out of her), but since she's a Lab x Husky, probably just as well! she…

I've heard of the pinky toe one! I don't know about hairlessness though; while body hair is seen as less attractive (at least in females), there is still a great deal of attraction given over to hair on the head and I can't see that trend changing. Same with eyebrows; not only do humans without eyebrows find themselves…

That sounds about right to me, lol!

Love: turkey chicken grilled steak French fries mocha Hate: Tomatoes (texture, bleah) Peppers (except green pepper if they're chopped very small) raw onions (they make me ill) turkey bacon (omg, disgusting!) liver I'm such a carnivore, lol!

I'm a Work at Home Mom and have my activity set to lightly active, on 1300 calories a day (trying to lose 1.5 pounds a week for a few weeks to shake my body out of its rut). I am doing the couch 2 5k program and my husband and I go trail walking a few times a week. And of course there is the chasing of the four year old!…

I'm in! I'll post my stats on the 21 (they're in heavy flux right now), but by Halloween, I'd like to have dropped 10-15 pounds (With a mini-maintenance time in there) and maybe as much as 20, though that seems hard to believe right now XD

I like Skinny Cow ice cream and chocolate bars.... but I just like them; the low cal is just an added bonus, ha ha! And we get 1% milk, but that's also because it's cheaper where I live. That's about it though; I still eat pizza and bread and cheese and baked goodies (though not so much anymore because it's too hot to…
