Tattoos are kick *kitten*. I want a Hayao Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli sleeve so bad *___* I'm a professional engineer and work in an office. Luckily the business world seems to be getting a bit more relaxed about body mods, but I want to wait until I have gotten a bit more established in my field before starting such a large…

Powdered egg whites!

Greek yogurt, nuts/seeds, eggs, dairy, tofu, beans, tempeh, seitan, protein supplements (bars or powders) made from egg/milk or plant based/vegan, the list goes on and on... I'm pescatarian, so I also eat fish. I chose not to go "full" vegetarian because I was concerned about my protein intake.

Good Earth - Original Sweet & Spicy The best tea in the world <3

My waist, it is getting so tiny ^_^ and my stomach! Flat, but still soft :)

Too busy playing pokemon x, no time for fitness. ;) My other nerdy interests include anything adorable really, katamari, animal crossing, pokemon, pokemon, pokemon~ I love to cosplay! My best outfit is ichigo from katamari. I want to be in better shape so I can dress as raunchier characters (haha) I love science fiction…

Do you have a gym membership? If they have Bodypump class you should try it out!

I love hot oatmeal (made with water or almond milk) mixed with a scoop of chocolate protein powder.

Safety Not Guaranteed Sci-fi, humor, love story. Great movie! Dale & Tucker Vs. Evil! Yes hahah so silly, very enjoyable. Orange is the New Black is a great series.

I agree. My friend this weekend told me that I need to stop losing weight. What? I just barely left the "overweight" BMI category... I'm going nice and slow and healthy, and there's nothing to be concerned about with my progress or my goals. I know she's just worried about me, her sister is currently struggling with…

Drink more water. Your body works better when you're hydrated.

My cat loves avocados and is always trying to eat some of mine! Good thing I was too greedy and didn't let her eat any, never knew they were harmful to animals. Interesting facts, thank you for sharing ^__^ Sabine_Stroehm: Tuna and avocado is divine. You'll never go back to plain ol mayo again! (You should try tuna with…

Do these fit in an 8x8 brownie pan? Or do you make them like cookies?

I've used frozen banana slices instead of ice to get a super creamy shake, but right now I'm trying to avoid bananas because of their high sugar/carb (just a personal experiment with my nutrition). Do you think if I froze the pumpkin puree in an ice cube tray and used that, it would give similar results? I'm gonna pop some…

Thank you both for the ideas! I really like the idea about getting her a class or a nutritionist as a gift :) I know she has been to the doctor recently but I will ask her about her thyroid. <3

Land's End has a great selection of cute and modest swimwear. They aren't cheap but they are high quality pieces that will last you many years. If you can find an outlet store near you, prices tend to be much lower.

I don't wear rings because they get caught on my skin or my gloves when I lift. Necklaces, bracelets or anklets distract me when they're bouncing around. I have stretched ears and I almost always wear simple plugs or tunnels that don't get in the way of anything, so I leave those in. I also leave in my navel and cartilage…

Same :/ As a real life "nerd" (recent engineering school graduate, works as a computer programmer) I just don't get the appeal. People can now make fun of us and perpetuate stereotypes on TV as well as in real life ^_^

You might have estimated your maintenance too high.

I'm going to not BUY any candy this Halloween. If it isn't in my house or my car or my purse, then it is awfully hard to binge! But if someone offers it to me, I just might accept a piece... or two ;P A life with no chocolate sounds absolutely miserable! hehe

Just sent you a request, saw that you like hooping! Me too :D I live to hoop dance :) Not really in the same category as you as far as amount to lose, but I think we can still motivate each other!

I'm currently 35 - 27 - 39. Booty booty booty booty booty booty~ ;D I'm pear shaped I guess? But not so small on top that I look out of proportion. Just right ^_^

Burritos.... ♥ Fajita burritos with bell pepper and onion and mushroom and black beans Breakfast burritos with eggs and spinach and cheese and salsa Post-bar burritos with fried potato wedges and nacho cheese sauce Strange burritos with bananas and peanut butter and jelly ♥♥♥

I am a gogo dancer, and I'm about 20-30 lbs heavier than the rest of the girls. However, I am the most active, I work out (cardio and weights) regularly and attempt to eat a balanced diet. I can dance circles around my team mates. They may look "hotter" and "fitter" but they get tired after 5-10 minutes and switch out with…

Almonds, raspberries, and mango tea ^__^

Chicago style :'D yum

Thigh high socks without a bulge on top! >__< (Can you call it a thigh muffin top? lol) Right now the thighs fit great in plus size, but the rest of the leg is too baggy :(

Did you take a before picture to compare yourself to? What about measurements? Your body can change drastically without moving the scale. Sometimes the changes happen so slowly that, because you see yourself every day, you won't notice them.

I never had a problem with it. I used mio to help "wean" me off juice and sugary drinks. Just put less and less in my water over the course of a few months until I stopped feeling like drinks needed to be sweet to be enjoyed. I drink plain water now mostly, tea sometimes. If you like it and it helps you stay hydrated,…

My hips are just over one foot larger than my waist... it is a blessing and a curse :P
