I want this confidence! I must have been absent that day, because I am probably a 5 but I walk around like a 3 or less.

Nope! HYE eaten shark?

In that case....

Thanks! It's pretty much lighting and angles, though. I hide my wide hips and cellulite-ridden thighs from the camera :P I love your top, it shows off your delicious curves! ....and that probably sounds really creepy. I apologize. :embarassed:

Gonna be honest, I just creeped your profile. Whatever you're doing, it works. You look amazing.

Good lord, someone got a bit salty and reported my previous post for pointing out some confusion. cheers! :drinker: Regardless, you're totally right, analogies are very much a thing.

I just restarted after a relatively long break from mfp. I'm aiming for 6 days/week, but I honestly am trying not to over-stress myself over missing a workout. I took it way too seriously last time and I abandoned my routine completely as a result. This time, I just want at least 4 but hopefully 5-6 days of 50-60 mins of…

ditto.

Congrats! That is such a huge accomplishment! I want to be a size 6, and you're an inspiration :)

The point isn't the TV. The point is that entertainment/enjoyment and pleasure in general is inherently valuable and therefore giving things up because they don't offer anything further than pleasure is ridiculous and unnecessary. Sugar in moderation is fine, just like TV, video games, and throw pillows (though some would…

What comparison would you use?

That doesn't work as well for me. I love video games, but I could take or leave throw pillows. What about music? Much as some would like to argue, humans don't need music to survive.

I love this comparison, I will use it next time someone tries to sugar-shame me :D

nice lip ring!

From what I've read on the topic, men looking for a short-term hookup situation focus on body (boobs and *kitten* and whatnot), but men looking for a long-term or life partner focus far more on a woman's face. So.... yeah. I don't know if that helps, but it's all I've got. EDIT: of course, this is strictly speaking of…

That doesn't work for those of us with very little to lose. I'm at 1200 net cals per day, my portion sizes aren't an issue. I have to limit my intake of certain calorie-dense foods if I want to lose weight.

I agree with others, that you shouldn't deny yourself all the things you love - but I also sympathize with the low daily calorie goal (1200 for me). I always fantasize about coming across a genie: my first wish would be to have the ability to eat whatever I want and never workout (but I could eat right and workout if I…

I could definitely use the motivation. SW: 135 CW: fluctuates from 131-135 1st GW: 130 UGW: 120 [Super awesome maybe GW: 115] My goal for this month will be to regularly see 130 or lower on the scale :) Weekly Weigh-In Chart 5/3: 135 5/10: 130.5 (so far so good! it has been fluctuating between 129-133 this week, but mostly…

welp, you could use a 'four cheese pizza' as a proxy, I'm sure mfp has some of those in the database. EDIT: and for size, just estimate an equivalent amount of slices from a normal pizza, or maybe use a "personal four cheese pizza" as a proxy if the italian restaurant's pizza is for one. EDIT #2 actually I just checked the…

what's the point of a game if no one follows the ONE rule?

whoops! sorry, I thought Figgzie had already guessed for you too :/

why is a 'questions only' thread full of non-questions?

welcome! you look great aw thanks man :)

yes! and choir and band :D I'm gonna guess.... jock?

close! I'm the same age as you! ouch! I'm 23 :sad:

Chess club!

35?

Follow suit

I was just going to lurk, but good lord I can't take any more of this broscience. I'm in the public health field, so this stuff is what I study. This study came out relatively recently and basically all health professionals agree is demonstrates that the 'sat fat causes heart disease' myth was based on ... well... nothing…
