I love pita pit, and I've been eating there many times a week and I am fully aware that they use the secret sauce to sauté the veggies on the grill. If you're concerned about the "hidden" calories, then go on their website and "build your own pita" and include it and you'll get a pretty accurate calorie count for your…

I have no words for this.

I've been thinking about this lately also. I'm a single gal, living alone and do eat most of my meals in front of the tv. I am trying to focus on eating more mindfully - which makes me focus on the food and not eat mindlessly while watching something. Trying to listen to my body's hunger/fullness cues and just be aware. I…

Join a gym now! It might feel uncomfortable at first, but trust me you will be so happy you did once you start seeing results. I've been going regularly for over a year now and some of the more fit people that I see there are starting to come up to me and congratulate and comment on my progress. Just do it!

You have to make changes that you can sustain long term. If you're not eating foods that you like, or doing exercises that you enjoy, you won't stick with it and you'll quickly lose motivation. I think you need to remind yourself why you started this, and stop making excuses. This isn't about "losing 20 lbs" or whatever…

That looks horrible! and don't even get me started on those traps...

Just at the end of my 30th year, and close to a year on MFP, and I look and feel better than ever!

Sometimes I'm too smart for my own good.

This does sound odd that someone would be allergic to all fruits and most vegetables, but I guess it's possible. If it's an issue of not "liking" certain vegetables or fruit, then that's a different story. Try some protein shakes maybe, or drink the fruit and veggies in smoothie form if you don't like it raw. You can eat…

I'm proud of my curves and will always have the same figure at any size - just maybe a bit smaller. I know that not all guys are into it though. I still have some weight to lose, but I am always surprised when a guy tells me he likes me the way I am. I kind of always thought I needed to lose weight before I could meet…

This is pretty much the exact program I am following with a few added exercises. I think it's a great workout and I do 5x5 on all the main lifts, and squat on both leg days. I enjoy it, try it out and see for yourself. ETA: start with an empty barbell for the main lifts, and add 5lbs per session or per week depending on…

I think it depends on what your goals are. I do very little cardio but I lift a lot of weights. That's what I enjoy - and I'm loving the results I see and feel. Diet is the most important factor for weight loss. Cardio has obvious health benefits, and I do enjoy doing a bit of elliptical throughout the week, but it's not…

I needed to read this today. Thank you :flowerforyou:

I don't know what I was expecting coming in here, but...

my GOD that's horrendous.

If you worry about having others see your diary, keep it private. However, you have to be honest about what you eat, at all times. If you don't weigh and measure everything you are most certainly eating more than you think. I know it's cheesy, but this line has always stuck with me : "what we eat in private, we wear in…

It clears my mind and makes me feel good about myself. And I LOVE feeling sore the next day. I've never looked better than I have now, and I look forward to seeing where I can take my body in the future.

I don't think other people see your weight loss as a big deal. They'll notice, some may make comments, some may even be jealous, but they will get used to it much quicker than you will.

Bump for ideas.

haha I went to Summersault 98 the summer before I started high school. I saw I Mother Earth, BTK, Moist, Our Lady Peace, Sloan, etc. It was an eye opener lol

I was totally saying it while I was reading this...

I have a hot date with Kevin Spacey tonight! (Gonna watch season 2 of House of Cards). Maybe a bit of wine ;)

I will be taking myself on a date to the gym (leg day!) and then going home, put on pjs and watch some Netflix with a glass of wine. Not too shabby!

I'm having a date with myself at the gym!

I don't know about you, but I'm going for the elephant penis.

Amazing story - congrats and thank you so much for sharing :flowerforyou:

SImmer down! I don't have a problem with people contacting me, but it is creepy to be approached for sex - especially when you don't even have a picture up. It's like these guys would sleep with anyone or anything. That's what I have a problem with.

This is a pretty accurate description of my experience with online dating. I am currently on a dating website but I don't have a picture on my profile, and even then I still get some creepy messages. Some guy messaged me asking if I wanted a "cuddle buddy", to which I replied "you don't even know what I look like!", and…
