Well, I ended up losing about a pound, but I won't be overindulging anymore--or if I do, I'll limit it to one day and not nine...Thanks for the input, guys!

I know you weren't! I don't really get it either. There's someone on my friends list who does it and gets really discouraged because of it and I keep thinking...Why TF are you doing that to yourself?

That Leonard Cohen cover by Antony and the Johnsons gave me chills!!!!

Sufjan Stevens, Elliott Smith, Mountain Man, Grizzly Bear, The Antlers--although these guys are actually super depressing =/

Holy crap, you could have lost a limb. You were about 20 seconds and a tourniquet away from being an after school special

Two words for you: Mini. Trebuchet.

Yeah, I never did it before this week. Usually, I weigh Saturday morning, first thing, in the buff, about 30 minutes after I wake up. This week, I got a little curious about fluctuations and...Well, it's been a slow work week =)
-
Hmm, OK, thanks. I guess there are about a bajillion factors to how much you weigh any given day. And about not weighing food--I try to compensate by eating under 1200 (or what my measuring cup/the package says is 1200 total) and I also don't log all the exercise I do because I don't really trust the exercise logging…

Those sharks are terrifying! I have a healthy fear of the masters of the ocean. I'll just snorkel with jellyfish.

Oh man, dad joke!

Chilaquiles with chicken, light cream, queso seco, and a ton of habanero sauce.

That 20 minute period right after I get home from work when I realize that I can finally sit down and relax for a couple of hours, usually with Netflix and a banana with peanut butter. On weekends it's waking up late and going for a walk to the hip neirghborhood with my boyfriend to get some bagels (Karma Bagels, ooooh…

There are always hot dudes at the library. Take up/get more into a hobby. I actually met a lot of guys while learning to salsa dance--though half were creeps. I'm in a happy relationship, so I never allowed anything, but I learned to dance and I met a lot of cool people.

Ah, dude, you don't owe us an explanation. I'm kinda of the opinion that regardless of how many people you loved and loved you, ultimately, everyone leaves in some way and you die alone. Depressing? Yes. But I'm a realist. You do you--which you're doing, because you're on here.

Can I say money and then give it away? I only care about money in as far as I have the necessities and a bit of a safety net. But I also don't have many people I'm close to. So can I just add a third category and say cats are most important?

Carl's Jr.'s Jalapeno Thick Burger, large fries, Diet Pepsi, and an unwise amount of melted chocolate-Oreo ice cream. I only eat this if I hit my goal weight for the two-week period AND I LOVE EVERY SECOND OF IT.

where's the jaw-drop emoji? AWESOME, GIRL!

I'd add, don't waste your youth fishing for compliments. If you're so insecure that you need to post half naked pictures of yourself all over a forum in hopes that some random person you'll never meet will tell you you're pretty, there's something else you should be looking into--namely counseling.

I know, right. Everybody's reading nonsense like "A Brief History of Time", talking about the popular conceptualization of black holes and the mathematical possibility of time travel, but I'm like, have you even heard of "Green Eggs and Ham"?

I don't know how helpful this will be, but when I'm thinking about bingeing, I think about the last time I did it, and I remember how sick I felt afterwards. Like I've had a couple binges where I almost puked because of the amount I ate. That makes me moderate my intake A LOT.

One of my students here in Mexico really wants to hone his British accent, so he decided to practice with me. He said the following in a belabored Texan accent: "Oh, holy jinkies! Let us have a cup of tee-uh and have some battles with Scotland!"

You're a lot braver than I am, dude. Go you!!!

I literally have had nothing to do for 8 hours. 20 minutes is eons for me.

Not from loneliness only, but general depression. I had to sort that bit out first and then I could focus on weight loss. I know it's cliche, but maybe you should get some counseling. I should have, but didn't because I'm an idiot and a cheapskate. In the mean time, while you're sorting out what the next mental health step…

LOVE LOVE LOVE ZUMBA. There's actually tons and tons of zumba workouts of varying levels on YouTube. I used to to do it every day (and still should be doing, actually...).

OMG, Prancercise! Prance your way to a smaller waist!

Subway can make any of their sandwiches into a salad or a flatbread. The can put the dressing on the side so you can put as much or as little as you want on there. Also, convenience stores often have salads and boiled eggs available. My life was extremely, extremely busy a short while ago, so I understand the need for fast…

I confess that my kids have been making a project in the classroom and one part of it totally covers my desk. For the last two days, I've been hiding behind it when anyone comes looking for me. I confess this is the best thing I've ever done.
