  • i'm actually the opposite of most, i think. i tend to weigh less at night, after work and the gym, but before dinner. i tend to eat very scantily during the day, usually a luna bar, an apple and non-dairy yogurt until about 9pm, depending what time i get out. i hit the gym after work then weigh when i get home, then eat…
  • I'm pretty sure it's actually Nirvana though... I mean, yeah the Beatles are and always were WAY overhyped, that's not up for debate, but if I'm high enough and my imagination is firing on all cylinders, at least I can kind of sort of understand why people like them and perceive them to be talented. Nirvana? I have yet to…
  • St. Ive's is affordable and vegan friendly as far as ingredients go... but since they've been bought out by Unilever they are no longer cruelty free, so it depends on your ethical stance. A few other names that come to mind that are a little more expensive than St. Ive's but available at most grocery/pharmacies/big box…
  • next time you catch a b*tch scoping him out, just p*ss on him and mark your territory. raise hackles and bear teeth if necessary.
  • Gin Blossoms will never die :heart:
  • i do... mostly because i'm such an all or nothing personality that if i miss one, then i'm gonna miss two, then three, etc... and that's exactly what's been going on the past 2 weeks. work schedule has been hectic, my car was OOS for a little while so i couldn't go to the gym after work like i usually do while depending on…
  • that's nothing. there was a lunch meeting at work yesterday so i purposefully didn't bring anything with me. when i got there, i spotted 1 of 2 sandwiches labeled "Mediterranean Veggie," my eyes lit up, my heart leaped... "finally! a lunch meeting with something substantial for me to eat!" i thought.... but, to my shock…
  • yep, i'm right there with you. the first 20-25lbs for me literally melted off. the whole time i was thinking "this is way too easy, there must be a catch"... since the beginning of November the scale has been *****footing (yes, i used that word) around with this 6-7lb range. one day, i'll break a new low number, then 1 big…
  • i stir fry mine... rinse/drain the noodles well, then fry them in a nonstick pan for a while to let more of the water burn off. in a separate pan, i stirfry my veggies/tofu/seitan/whatever with some thai peanut sauce, then mix it all together
  • for me, it depends. some days i'm closing in on my limit for the day and i just feel hungry no matter what i eat. other days, especially if i exercise pretty vigorously, it kills my appetite and burns enough to leave me with a larger than usual deficit. one day, i went hiking for like 6-7 hours.. i mean just straight…
  • A while back, I got one of those Starbucks Refreshers that supposedly have GCB extract in them and FLEWW through the night at work like I've never experienced on regular coffee... got another one a few days later and it did zippo for me. But i am hard-headed and highly desensitized when it comes to caffeine, so don't use…
  • diet cranberry ginger ale with cranberry moonshine is my drink of choice this time of year.
  • I like the Gardein holiday roast, or whatever they call it, better. Tofurky is ok, but a little bland and salty at the same time (if that's possible). On the occasion i do make it, i don't follow the package instructions at all. I slice it down the middle lengthwise (like you might a spaghetti squash), put the 2 halves…
  • enough klonopin and sleeping pills to knock me out before i can make it to the fridge. late night exercise (which is most nights, i get off work at 8-9pm and head to the gym) just keeps me up half the night no matter how tired i am wait, how many caloriez does melatonin has? should i use a food scale to meazure my…
  • idk, it's room temp inside the gym so the weather outside doesn't really affect my indoor exercise. and i can put the heat on in my car on the way there... the 30ish second walk from the car to the gym and back isn't really a deal breaker for me. if i didn't feel like going to the gym just because it's cold out then i…
  • agreed... you want to just barely be able to complete that 5th rep, and each set should be more exhausting than the last. i sweat just as much, if not more during strength as i do during cardio... i'm talking streams running into my eyes, dripping onto the floor, but that's normal for me...
  • Chinese/Thai and Kraken rum... there's about 67 more i could ask for, but i'd be perfectly ok with just those for the rest of forever.
  • i'm going to work. 8am-8pm and i actually have absolutely NO problem with that because it will be the first Black Friday in my adult life that i'm not working in retail! :drinker: Had to be at my mall job 11pm Thanksgiving night last year and would've had to be there 7pm this year... EFFFF THAT!
  • i have come to the conclusion that either: 1 - women lie about their bra size as much as they lie about their weight/age 2 - there is absolutely no regulation in the lingerie industry and each brand just makes sizes whatever they want (maybe a bit of both) i have met tiny women with somewhat large-ish chests for their…
  • i'm the opposite. i'm naturally blonde and dye my hair black... although it had more to do with covering up purple hair for a new job than losing weight (i'm nowhere near finished yet). the general consensus is that i look better with just about any color than my natural color and i agree, so i just keep the blonde at bay
  • there's no law against eating after a workout... if you didn't go over your calorie goal for the day then you're fine, assuming your goal is weight loss.
  • back from Salem! SW: 238.2 last week: 225.7 this week: 222.0 total loss this week: 3.7 total challenge loss: 16.2 HG: 218 almost made it, oh well! I don't think there was anything more/better I could have done to hit goal, but I'm happy with it anyway! that was a nice whoosh after a slow couple weeks... and I still managed…
  • SW: 238.2 last week: 226.0 this week: 225.7 total loss this week: 0.3 total challenge loss: 12.5 HG: 218 lowered my calories as per MFP's suggestion, some good that did! ha! either my body is taking a bit to catch up or it's pissed off and revolting! I'll be in Salem, MA for vacation next week :bigsmile: so I may or may…
  • I found some 60cal candy corn-flavored lollipops, they are my go to treat this year :D
  • that's awesome! i'm on week 1 for the second week in a row, myself. it is getting a teensy weensy bit easier each time. I've never ran before this, so it'll probably just take me a little longer. but dammit, i'm gonna finish it.
  • I don't know if this was already mentioned because i'm too lazy to read through all the replies, but if you're worried about too much candy lying around, I know there are programs out there where you can donate excess Halloween candy to troops, probably food banks, etc... that way, the kids can have fun, but you won't have…
  • because i dislike crowds and on Sat night the gym is a ghost town so I have the place to myself... except for the creepy counter guy who tries to hit on me when i'm leaving...
  • I second old navy.. nothing really over $25 and I just buy a bunch when they're on sale. IME so far, they arecomfy & hold up nicely and the tops are pretty cute/flattering
  • SW: 238.2 last week: 228.4 this week: 226.0 total loss this week: 2.4 total challenge loss: 12.2 HG: 218 great work everyone!
  • don't feel too bad. i'm almost 20lbs down and not only have I not lost any pants sizes, but I haven't lost one inch - anywhere - off my body. none. at all. no one else has noticed yet, either. i feel a little less bloated maybe. my clothes aren't really fitting looser, I just feel like I look less lumpy in them. honestly,…
