I completely understand. Some days I feel awesoome but then some days I'm just down in the dumps about my body for no reason. Its so irrational...not like I gained 20 pounds overnight but I feel like it :p

I moved out a long time ago, but my mom was ridiculous! I was pretty young and would ask her to buy some healthy foods (was an obese child, sad face) and she'd be like "deep fried cheese curds ARE healthy because they have CHEESE" I was young, not retarded :p

lol right. And you worded it so nicely too! well anyways, good post, I know what you mean, glad I'm not the only one :)

i understand completely. seems like some people are really trying to rag on you here, but I get it. If I see someone at the gym who is there to show off, it makes me feel weird for going to a gym to actuallly work out, and there's a problem with that. Hang out at the mall if you wanna show off and look pretty, yannow?

sounds intense! but completely awesome, nonetheless. :)

Well depending on the time, I'll either be in san diego with my boyfriend, in an airport in pheonix or minneapolis, home with my family in wisconsin, or on an airplane. :p what an exciting day for rapture

I very much enjoyed reading this. :) hooray science

Hooray :D

I love coffee! I am cheap though...so I usually have my coffee at home. Pretty boring, I know. I like a little bit of sugar and some milk. I doo love some flavors of creamer though. :) Also, I'm glad somebody else explained it because I suck at defining!

Bigelow green tea is the best, doesn't need sugar. :) they have a bunch of fruity flavors and are all light and yummy.

weed. lol :p

I loved reading through everyone's goals and different challenges for the summer. I'm very inspired. :) AND I am going to open up my food diary...which makes me nervous beyond belief. I am most certainly not the perfect eater and hopefully this will help to maybe, kind of, change that. My goals for the summer are…

Bigelow green tea with pomegranate. my absolute favorite. :) I tried it once at a hotel and bought it the very next day.

Yeah,I kind of agree with an earlier poster. i loove hot coffee and can drink it with very little sweetener, but iced coffee seems to need more sugar and cream to be yummy.

I just started trying to lower my carbs. I have lost faith in cereal )':

Flavored hot tea or popcorn for when I'm craving food out of boredom, especially if it's late at night. When I wake up earlier, I don't wake up hungry, so I don't impulsively eat everything I see within five seconds...but maybe I'm the only one with that problem :p Having someone to share my food with helps! My lovely…

I felt great at 175. I was thin and super happy with my body. I'm 5'10" and either have a ridiculous amount of muscle mass or big bones or whatever, because I have yet to see anyone at 200 with the same structure as me. :s

i wear two sports bras and my neck actually gets sore because of them...but i run anyways! it motivates me to go and run and get the damn things off as soon as possible :pp

Awesome, glad I could be helpful. [:

I would start just worrying about calories, honestly. I've been tracking my foods for a long time now and have just recently decided to lower my carbs. and guess what? it is really, really hard! If I would have tried lowering my carbs AND counting calories simultaneously to begin with, I might have given up or gotten…

uh these jeans that are just so adorable that i used to be able to slide on and button (with a lot of work) and had to wear a sweatshirt with inspire me. I can't wait to ACTUALLY wear them comfortably, with a shirt and all. :) At my biggest weight they wouldn't slip past my thighs..it was depressing. SO, I don't think i'll…

Chocolate D; I believe in eating everything in moderation, but I just wanna binge on it soo bad, especially around that time.

Name: Alex! Age: 18 Major/minor: completely undecided Why you want to join this group?: I want to make a wonderful group of friends all working towards the same goal. :) Goals for summer: couch to 5k. i want to be tooooned SW: 207 CW: unfortunately unknown ): around 200, in a week i'll be back home where a scale is…

This also happens to me, you could concentrate on your calorie goals for the week rather than by the day. This way, you can listen to your body...and that has to be good, right? :)

i can never tell if i'm actually hungry or just bored lol

Some theories suggest that the ratio of carbs to proteins to fats has an effect on how quickly you will lose weight.

I'm afraid of the dark and hate sleeping alone because of it. i pick my nose and am not embarrassed by it :) i could play video games all day, everyday i like to pretend.

I was this way for sooo long. I have no idea what changed in me, but I can now say I don't obsess over food and it feels wonderful. I hope someday you get the same results and I wish I could tell you what helped me. Best of luck

chicken!

5'10" yaay tallness :)
