Followed directions, ended up in Mexico on the side of the freeway, singing Freebird at the top of my lungs. What was step 4 again?

Celebrities will do anything to be in the spotlight. Also, a vegan diet is a diet choice. Veganism is a lifestyle choice. *runs away before this topic explodes* Brace yourselves,.... the vegans are coming.

Rice has nutrients.

Keep doing what you're doing! You can do it. One moment at a time. Stay positive :smiley: Better days are ahead!

LOL

^^^^ This. Especially when you have less to lose initially, you'll see fluctuations. When I first start logging/exercising, I lose about 5 or 10lbs like nothing, but from then on it's slow and stagnant. Resistance training will most definitely help you look and feel better and stronger. Don't forget it's good for your…

OP, you're within a healthy weight range for your height. If you want to 'look better naked', then add resistance training. Your diet seems balanced, but I am concerned due to your nickname that you may have an eating disorder and are trying to use this site to restrict and lose more weight. Are you in recovery or are you…

If he would've landed that, it would've been epic.

LMAO

Don't give too much heed to the idea of 'clean' foods. There are too many so-called professionals out there who will tell you some foods are good and some are bad. While it's best to eat fruits, vegetables, and minimally-processed foods, everything in moderation is fine and can actually help you adhere to a long-term…

.... not really. o_o

You need to THROW the entire loaf out the kitchen window as far as you possibly can, hoping not to hit any meandering children riding bikes who may pass by. It is very insulting that your roommate would do such a thing to you. You should take this very seriously. PASS THE LOAF.

Anyone else read the thread title and instantly had A Flock of Seagulls stuck in their head?

Because of your medical issues, it would be unwise for me to offer advice. I do hope you can get to the doctor soon and get a good plan in action, both for yourself and your baby :)

Detoxes and cleanses are just terms used by people trying to sell you something. Drink lots of water and eat fiber - unless your liver and kidneys are not functioning, your body will detox and cleanse for you. Garcinia Cambogia has never been proven in any legitimate, peer-reviewed study to promote weight loss.…

It's so majestic

You can eat McDonald's any time you like if it fits your calories/macros (good balance of protein, fat, carbs throughout the day). A lot of people like to fearmonger and say certain foods are 'good' and certain foods are 'bad'. Be wary of this kind of thought pattern. Of course a diet of fruits, veggies, nuts, lean meats,…

I have nothing to add, so I'll just post a picture of this adorable puppy.

Very nice! Congrats on the hard work. Your smile is contagious. I love your top, too :)

You just reminded me I have half a pint of Ben & Jerry's Half Baked in the freezer at home. Now Monday will seem even longer and more painful.

Raw broccoli has a completely different taste to it. I like it. I will sit there and nibble on the raw broccoli before I cook it, and then wonder why I cooked it at all.

^^^ this. I'm pretty sure corn would be a little more caloric than just plain grass because of the natural sugars, so there's that, too.

This is actually a very common question among people with eating disorders. I don't think any of them ever came to a consensus on it.

Cod dammit.

DOMS happens because the muscle is trying to repair itself and it retains water. You get stiff and sore. Stretching and light activity does help in general, otherwise you tend to lock up even tighter. No studies or reports to show, I'll leave that to the others. [citation needed]

I read up on SciBabe's facebook last night and was very happy. It seems by her speaking out, other media outlets have latched on and are free to say what I feel they were all thinking in the background. "This Food Babe lady is insane."

I was thinking maybe since you've been in a calorie deficit, you may not have been getting adequate nutrition (especially Vitamin A, C, E, and healthy fats). Just an idea, but make sure your nutrition game is up to par, and drink a lot of water and moisturize.

Oh lord. I can't wait to get on FB and see what Yvette has to say about this BS slander attempt.

Add chicken, and possibly some diced apples, berries, or nuts, also. And crumbled feta or blue cheese. It tastes amazing. ;)
