Don't feel bad, this is my fourth time trying to get back into the swing of it. Life happens, you only fail if you stop trying.

Thank you very much for your help! :flowerforyou: I appreciate it. That's exactly what I was looking for- a general guideline. I'm not planning on counting calories or restricting;I know that's not the point of this way of eating. I just needed an outline to help me learn.

I love the movies. Have you seen 'Culture in decline'? It's all on Youtube, It's a more light hearted show that breaks it into little chunks.

I always keep mine private just for that reason-I always got horrible messages. When I would get busy I simply forget to log lunches. Or if I was out and about all day or gone for the weekend I would go back and log what I remembered eating and I would always get awful messages from people screaming at me. I got called…

Huge into anime,mangas, and j-horror films. Welcoming new friends!

I really like Natto. Tastes like a salty miso to me. It's great if you make a spicy miso soup and stir some natto into it. :heart:

Cosplaying any character I want and not having to worry about wearing a skirt.:heart:

I'd like to meet some more Anime fans out there! Anyone who's an otaku, a cosplayer, even a gamer or comic nerd.

Always will be Ariel. The movie 'The Little Mermaid' holds a very dear place in my heart.

Completely True.

I've got a tattoo of Spiderman on my back. Yes, I am that nerdy.

In Total or since joining MFP? *187 Bananas *A bushel of Corn (heh) *A healthy 10 year old girl *7 large bags of flour *10 human hearts :noway: *7 medium sized bowling balls

Height- 5'2" Weight - 152 Body - Hourglass Sizes- Shirts= S/M (depending on boob room) Pants= 8/10 (depending on hip room)

I completely agree. Well said.

I live about five minutes drive from Portland. That kind of behavior is rapid here.

Sadly, I live in Washington State close to Seattle. So, we had buckets of rain.

For some reason, All the Dollar Trees in my area sell that Bob's Red Mill Flax Seeds.

Heya! I'm about your age (late 20s) and I'm looking for some new buddies. I've been on the site for a while, so if you ever have a question, just ask!

I've had it both ways and I really prefer private. I'm a vegan, so some days I could eat massive amounts of veggies and fruit and make it no where near 1200cals. Other days, I could eat a few too many slices of bread and go way over. On days I went under even though I ate great and massive amounts of food, I would get…

I was doing the same thing and I realized that it was from my job. I was eating my stress. I got a new job and was trying to find a way to juggle my old job (that I hated) with my new job (that is much more hours) and not make either job mad. Finally, I just bit the bullet and quit the crap job and I've noticed that I've…

Yea, I saw that a while ago. It really inspired me to get a juicer, but I never ended up getting one. Another really good documentary is called 'Simply Raw' where a group of people go raw for 30 days to try and reverse their diabetes. Also, 'Food Matters' which is all about the different enzymes and things in foods and why…

The verdict does make me angry, but I think Karma will get her. Think about it- In trying to save her own *kitten*,she ruined her relationship with everyone who had been supporting her-Friends and her Family for sure. None of them will come to her aid after this. She won't be able to make new friends to mootch off of…

Yea, I've gained back like 4lbs of what I have lost this last month. (I've lost a total of 80lbs-12lbs since I joined the site) Recently though,When I get stressed, I've been eating. I didn't used to before the diet. For some reason though, now that I KNOW I need to eat better;foods on my mind and that makes food my first…

That's amazingly gross but Color me Impressed.

There's a slimming tea you can get at most Asian markets called Three Ballerinas. I don't know about slimming per say, but I can say it's the best and gentlest laxative I've ever used lol.

Edamame is a really good source. So is Spinach from what I hear.

My personal opinion is that natural carbs are fine- Like rice,beans,potatoes, and oatmeal. I would avoid processed carbs like white bread and white pasta. I don't really think that any food is 'bad' per say; I think that a lot of the preservatives are what's bad for you and overeating anything is bad for you.

Eat as well as you can for 5 days, then you'll want that good food. Your taste-buds die and regrow every 5 days so they will crave the foods you've been giving them the last 5 days. That's my best advice- Just try and be as good as you can the next 5 days :flowerforyou: And PS- The title made me smile

Completely agree. I'm a vegan and if I eat no processed foods,breads, or junk food;I just can not physically hold the 1200 calories worth of food. I have had a few days where I only get to 600 and feel full to the point of exploding but I ate anyways because of the 1200 and actually did get sick. So, I have just been…
