Alive and still cooking. :)

Nice. I never thought to use feta in chicken salad. :)

Mountain Dew Code Red or milk tea style drinks.

Hello all. I'm looking for someone to harass and motivate me and perhaps I can do the same. I'm a heavy texter so that'd be nice. :) Back in the day, I lost a lot of weight and even found my abs from my 6 pack. Recently, I've gained it all back and more and I'd like to change. Some support would be great! Shoot me a…

Hello! I'm Chris and currently live on the gulf coast. I've always been big, but a while back I lost a lot of weight and found my abs. Unfortunately, life happened and I've gained it all back. I'm looking for an accountability partner. Someone to harass me and motivate me and maybe I could do the same for them. :) If…

Could be dehydration. Could also be psychological. I know when I eat, I always get a boost, whether I'm hungry or not. A psychological boost definitely and possibly a physical boost. You're only on day 10 so your body's still in "what the ****" mode. Hang in there and get back to us after a while. :)

Don't get discouraged and hang in there! :)

I had lots of little victories. Being able to do one pull up was a little victory, being able to hike all the way up this steep hill without stopping, being able to get pants outside of big and tall stores... Oh, being able to fit on roller coasters was a big one since I love coasters. I'm struggling to get back under 245…

I tried it. I told myself I'd go a whole week on a juice diet. Went out and bought $200 worth of all the things I wanted to try. Lasted about 36 hours. :) For me personally, I can't replace solid food willingly. I'm sure it's beneficial and all, but if it doesn't work, don't fret. Also, be weary that juices are dense in…

Guys with long hair. Guys would joke that my ideal guy is a tall, pale, white guy with long hair. It's true. :( lol

Dear MFP, I saw an video talking about how good Five Guys was. So I went and got a burger and although I swam afterwards, I had little caesars after. My punishment was a stomach ache that lasted all night. Most grease I've had in a while. Never again.

Definitely a good idea. Cut all your meals in half and you'll have about the right calories for a meal. I still do that.

That's a good point. I've never seen MYSELF at that level, so how can I judge if I'm too skinny. *Nods* Good point.

Hi. Chris here. My biggest temptation are chips. Doritos, fritos, and cheetos specifically. I could easily down a whole LARGE 1800 calorie bag between meals. Sooo addicting!

I am a sushi fiend! I'm partial to Philadelphia rolls and spicy tempura rolls. I can't do sashimi... eeeep

Thankfully I have a partner for whom the word "superficial" doesn't even compute. He's happy to kick my *kitten* to make me healthy for health's sake. I couldn't do it without him. I don't have any other real friends to help me through it. I do have a friend that claims to want to, but he's a bad influence on me with all…

I could recommend some good restaurants, but I don't want to be a bad influence on you. :) I saw a lot of these Paleo... groups. i've never heard of it before. What is it?

Every time I hear of parents being "extremely asian" it cracks me up. I don't know why. So funny! Anyway, yeah, I'm chasing a Criminology Degree at the moment. Can definitely be tough. Stick with it! Congratulations, by the way. What degree will you be graduating with?

My best friend and I are such bad influences on each other. I've been a bit more successful than him but for some reason we can't help but get Coldstone... or hit up a local cupcake shop... After we get a gigantic burrito. It's got to stop!!!

I already knocked a few things off my list already... - Not shopping at big and tall store (but I still do because I'm so tall) - Being able to fit on roller coasters - Not looking completely ridiculous if riding a sport motorcycle (my gift to myself for losing 120, although gained 20 back. :( ) I admit the rest of my list…

I am terrible with that. I eat because it makes me feel better. I love food and I was raised that having a "healthy appetite" was good. Ribs, doritos, cheesecake... Love it. lost 120lbs throughout 2011, but since the Holidays, I've gained 20lbs back because I fell into back into bad habits. Just started back this week. I…

Like others have said, just work on it. It'll go away in time. I kind of have a similar but different problem. My scale is a little off. I've actually lost 120lbs (gained 20 back, but I've been letting myself go a bit. :/ ) Anyway, I like the way I'm turning out, but I'm still making muffin. The skin hang/spare tire looks…

Go gurl!
