  • Hi there :D Now first thing's first, I don't count my calories, so I don't put my meals up here. But, I would be more than happy to give you support! I've already lost about eight pounds since I began exercising a month or so ago, and two pounds since I joined MyFitnessPal :) I think it mainly has to do with both the…
  • I completely agree with you. Why the h*ll do people have to be food pushers? Why is it so important that we eat something unhealthy, or that we eat anything at all that we don't want to? You know, when I make something and someone declines it, I respect that. It's their choice whether or not they want to eat what I made. I…
  • I think the people here all have pretty good ideas. Walking is a fantastic way to start; it's simple, so you don't have to worry about doing any 'moves' and hurting yourself (I did that when I first started), and you can increase the miles or add weights to make it more difficult. When I started, I could only go about half…
  • I don't make my evaluation of someone based on a test. Everyone is smart about at least something or another, it all depends on whether or their knowledge and personal life preferences allow both of us to work well with each other. No one really wants to date someone that's completely unintelligent in all aspects of life,…
  • I was a vegetarian for over two years, and a year ago I switched to a vegan diet. I love cooking, so I've found plenty of vegan recipes that I make all the time. If you'd like the links to some of them, or would like to hear about the books I've read that taught me about being a vegan, then send me a friend request and…
  • It is so hard. There is no denying that trying to run after sitting for so long is...probably one of the hardest things I have ever done. But it does get easier, to a degree. The problem is, once you get to a point where something that used to be difficult becomes easy, you push yourself harder and it's not so easy anymore…
  • When I'm in a hurry, I like to put a cup of oats with cinnamon, berries, and a bit of water or almond milk into the fridge. I leave it in there overnight, and the flavors of the raisins/berries soaks into the oatmeal, and makes it completely delicious. I've also made baked oatmeal, which you can find recipes for that…
  • Ha! I thought I was the only one that grins while I run. I know I probably look nutty, but I just can't help it. Running feels great when you're having a good day! :)
  • Here's some knowledge from a nutrition book that I'm reading, that might help you to better understand why your body is still gaining weight. I went through something similar, though not as drastic as you did after I went through a period where I was eating very little food during the day for about a year. Though I went…
  • I love your weightloss ticker. My brother has the book that that picture is from. Looks like he's going "Onwards! I see victory on the horizon!"
  • Digital Daggers. I've had Surrender going around in my head all day.
  • All of these results are super epic. I'm going to have to get myself that DVD, even if I'm slightly...afraid, of it. I did the Blast Fat, Boost Metabolism DVD awhile back, and I swear, it's freaking torture. PURE PAIN, NONESTOP. Knowing Julian this one probably isn't any kinder.
  • Eheh...I once ate three plates of food at a Chinese buffet, which mostly consisted of cream cheese wontons (I was doing a vegetarian with seafood thing at the time), fried shrimp, two squares of this mocha chocolate cake thing, a bowl of chocolate ice cream, piles of noodles, potato fries (it's the midwest...fries are…
  • I'd love to be your friend XD Feel free to add me. I love having more MFP buddies! :D
  • I can't begin to understand what life is like being a mother, so I'm going to skip over giving you any emotional advice and leave that to the more experienced :) And as others have said on here, it's not important what I think of your shape in a bikini, but what YOU think that matters. So, since you do want to lose some…
  • Hey there! I'm 5' 3'' vegan woman, and I weigh 114 pounds. I'm looking to lose four more pounds and see what I look like at 110, and I'd love to dish out some motivation and support :D Anyone here can add me :) I'm always open to having more friends.
  • Ugh, I have that too. I thought I was the only one, but I guess not. I always assumed that it came from having fat in that area, and poor posture. It usually goes away if I sleep on my stomach, or am standing for most of the day. It's just the skin folding and making a line there...like the creases at your elbows I…
  • Hey there :) I'm nowhere close to being a stay at home mother, but I also love to walk and run as my exercise, and I plan to join an gym and get into weights when I move. It'd be great to have another new friend.
  • Anyone feel free to add me :D I love to help others reach their goals, and I could use some encouragement or advice with mine.
