There's a good chance you're going to have to make your own food and do your own thing for a little while. He can be supportive and caring without changing his habits (whether he needs them or not...) and if you try to force him in to something he's not interested in doing, it could cause resentment. Food and diet is such…

Did you change the THINGS you were eating? Or just start eating more of the healthy foods? And what are the 'healthy' foods you're eating? I'm not totally comfortable discussing the science around what may happen when you go from being on a Very Low Calorie Diet to a more 'normal' diet, (I'm just not that well versed) but…

Have you tried using dry shampoo? I work out every day and use styling products at least five times a week, and I'm currently training my hair to only shampoo once a week. (because shampoos are so hard on hair and scalp) - It can be done by almost anyone with any hair type (and especially so for short hair folks like…

It can easily take up to eight weeks before you'll start to see losses on a reasonable deficit. Ten days is not long enough to proclaim it's not working. The first six pounds was probably mostly water weight... so try TDEE-20% for six weeks (accurately - weighing and measuring everything!) and then see how you're doing.

You could have a two pound weight variance just because you haven't crapped yet that day. Weighing once a week or less is probably more effective.

Seems legit.

Cooking shows don't make me fat. My piss-poor choices make me fat. Cooking shows have taught me how to use spices and herbs to improve the taste of the balanced and fresh meals I prepare, but it's my lack of self-control that causes me to eat multiple servings.

A half pound loss a week is not a bad thing.

Talk to a therapist. Someone who specializes in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.

Try adding 100 calories for a few weeks and see how it goes. Many women of your height have no problem eating 1500-2000 calories and losing. Just make sure you're properly logging everything and not accidentally going over somehow. Also, stop taking xenadrine. If you've lost 60 pounds already you know how to do this and…

Go out and find a place that will serve you a single slice. Have the slice of pizza, log the calories, and then do a little extra exercise today and tomorrow to maintain your deficit. Depriving yourself of things you love will not help you reach your goals. Eventually your feelings are going to push you to have some pizza,…

I recently cut out caffeine (I was a coffee and energy drink fanatic). I feel SO MUCH BETTER NOW and I don't ever want to get hooked on caffeine again... but, while I was detoxing it was like this: I tapered off for a week, M-F, down to one small cup on Friday AM. Saturday no caffeine, and I felt like death. Sunday I…

Amen. I order what I think sounds delicious, and I eat slowly and politely and enjoy the date. Because first impressions are important, and I want my date to know that I will throw down some steak and beer when the time calls for it.

I assumed you'd want to meet at the gym... You know these things go stale right quick.

Okay - sounds good. Want to grab something to eat after? I've been really craving a veggie pie plate.

That appears to be Canadian currency. I only take American Dollars. And Yen.

For comfort, I prefer no panties. If I plan to make a little money after my workout, I use cotton - I believe someone else above mentioned that it holds moisture, and that's where the dolla dolla bills are.

Are you drinking enough water? If you're not drinking enough water, and taking fiber, it WILL stop you up. Not to mention the fact that not drinking enough water will just stop you up anyway.

I don't even know how to gif....

I was told this is where the rude pr!cks are reporting this afternoon....

I'm willing to be she'll delete the email and gossip to you about the other office ladies, and that'll be the end of that. ORRRR... She's going to put you in charge of content on the next health newsletter, and that's going to be a PITA.

But ..... but bread and pasta is delicious ....

I prefer roasted red potatoes (with a little evoo, lemon juice, and a sh!tload of herbs) - probably eat them as a side twice a week!

I can't believe this cluster of effed up misguided dating 'rules' is going to roll.

No, no, we really are soulmates ... because you know I'm still 60+ pounds overweight, and I'd never just tell you I loved you ... that love crap is for suckers.

I haven't read all 15 pages, so pardon me if this have been covered ... but is it possible the OP and the OS (Online Soulmate) just didn't jive in person? It's very easy to put on your best face and personality online and over the phone, but keeping up that perfect persona in person is much more difficult..... I mean, I…

Furthermore, I think if I were a convicted murder, nothing would send me in to a subsequent rage like someone talking about how scared of me they are on an internet forum.

I am WAY more concerned with the people out there that have not yet committed crimes but are clearly not right in the head.... I mean, lord knows what anyone on the street is doing in the comfort of their homes. That being said, I'm really not terribly concerned with any of it at all. I am smart and use common sense, and…

Putting your hands on another person is NEVER okay, and trust me - if someone decides to do it once, they probably have it in them to do it again (unless the seek out help for the problems that caused the violence..) So, I didn't read everything, and I'm not going to - I trust the comments my esteemed friends have made ...…
