  • I believe the half of cake is her form of moderation. Like she said, that is all that fit into her calorie budget that day. She still allowed herself to indulge, just didn't over do it. Not sure where you were going with what you were saying, but anyways...good day :)
  • You don't have to eat junk just to get the calories back. Eat more healthier calorie dense foods, like avocados, peanut (or any other nut) butter, etc. Add a sliced avocado on a salad. Have a pb sandwich on whole wheat bread. Drink a glass of milk. Eat some granola after your workout. You do need to eat more if you are…
  • I support healthy - at whatever size and body shape that may be. Healthy is what needs to be promoted first. Confidence in your own skin a very close second. There should be no glorification of any size or body shape specifically. There needs to be a push for healthy.
  • In my own *personal* experience in the past (when I lost 65lbs) I would have a cheat day about once every few weeks. These mostly occurred unplanned with special events or family meals that were last minute. For me I considered it a cheat day because I went over my calories. I tried to keep it within reason - no more than…
  • A friend of mine has logged in for 1105 days in a row, that was 2 days ago.
  • Working on the "A Song of Ice and Fire" series. Starting the second book...'A Clash of Kings'. Also reading my text book for school but not as fun :yawn: Before I started these I finished "A Cuckoo's Calling" by J.K. Rowling's other pen name. It was pretty good. Not into detective novels but I read it because I like her…
  • If you haven't worked out in a long time I wouldn't start Insanity right off the bat. I would highly suggest a workout program like Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred or Ripped in 30 (or any other workout/dvds set up like it). They are great 30 minute workouts that introduce you back into circuit training with pretty simple…
  • Yes you can, just keep your portions in control and your good. If you try to completely give up chocolate then you'll fail in your weight loss because you'll be more opt to binge on it. I love me some chocolate and do not deny myself it :)
  • I was on the shot for a little over a year. I gained about 25 lbs. I had my last shot in August 2010 and it wasn't until January of 2011 that I was able to feel like things were back in balance and was able to workout, eat right and ended up losing 65lbs. Everyone's body is different so it may take you longer/shorter for…
  • No it will not. To gain a pound you have to eat 3500 extra calories (That is 3500 OVER the amount of your maintenance calories AND anything you burned with exercise). If anything those extra calories may make you bloat depending on what you ate (sugar? Bad carbs? Etc.?) and that extra pound is just water weight that will…
  • Feel free to add me. One my second round. Lost 65lbs on MFP back in 2011 then got pregnant. Now getting serious about losing the 30lbs I put back on from it. Hope to have it off by June as well but the sooner the better!! :) Anyone who isn't a nutjob feel free to add me as well :)
  • To each their own. If a day of going over on calories doesn't work for you then simply don't do it. Just my opinion. :flowerforyou:
  • If it was a parent, grandparent, aunt/uncle, sibling, very close friend that had this then I am sure the bride and groom would be keen to it and would chose not to have a peanut product. BUT if it is your dad's coworker's daughter whom you met once then no, don't opt out of what you love for her. If it is that severe then…
  • I think the best person to help with this would be the actual caterer. I am sure they've dealt with this issue many many times. The way I feel, also try to give a vegetarian option if your budget allows. But this could be items that could be a side or a hearty salad that fit into the meal as a whole. Vegans...ehh...I…
