Dude if you're shooting for "normal" you're out of luck- you're friggin gorgeous!!!! Great job lady!

Hello, my name is Sam and I like short guys. I think thats just Florida. I don't think most of the country equates orangeness with sexiness. Although biologically I guess healthy technically = attractive so its possible people who look like they leave the house once in awhile might be a trigger on some level...

bump!

? You can't starve yourself into a 6 pack... At least 2 of those girls you're ripping on look pretty ripped. To each their own.

My daily allowance has been all over the map, depends on where my heads at. I was set at 1200 for months and plateaued, ate maintenance for a week and lost 4 lbs. I'm currently set at 1 lb loss and 1550 daily cals or so, eating back exercise cals and I'm slightly worried that is still too little. I'll give it a go for…

14 and it was TERRIBLE! haha. I thought it was just because it was my first kiss but I kissed him again years later and nope, still bad. He was such a good friend but was clearly not meant to be anything more than that...

Aw, he's a cutie too! thanks.

ESPECIALLY when you burn a whole lot more you need to eat more. I burn over 1000 almost every long run (so once a week when my head is in the game) and I always eat them back. Most weekends I drive to Kansas City and back and I buy one tank of gas. Some weekends I drive to the Ozarks and back and I need 2 tanks. To insist…

Because it will make running easier. And I like looking and feeling my age.

There ought to be a ripping out your hair emoticon.... Read the article- then you'll get it.

hellz to the no! A compliment is a compliment, people! Unless its from a passive aggressive snarky mean person. In the latter case I would highly recommend still taking it as a compliment to piss them off.

You look great!! Congrats!

OOOO! me! me! At my very highest weight I was starting to think I was fat. Otherwise, nope. I was a very active, very fit fat girl for most of my life and I very rarely thought I looked what I weighed. I only really started losing weight as something to focus on after a bad break-up. I managed to be fat (ETA: "obese"…

I graduated in 2003 and weighed ~190. I'm 160 now. Smallest I've ever been! Shooting for 135 ultimately.

I'm in! Still letting myself get fried garbage at sit down places but convenience food is OUT! Excellent idea, I was shopping around for a decent new years resolution...

The "things you would change" thread is always easier for me to answer because I really like most things about myself. The list of things I don't like is just much shorter, haha! I'd say my best qualities are my strength and independence. Physically I really like my hourglass shape and lately I've really been liking my…

Sounds right to me! You can double check you put in your correct weight and height into the HRM but other than that you're good. 119 sounds right for walking quickly. ~200 cals for 40 min sounds reasonable.

THIS!! big time. And realize running has a huge mental component. Resist the urge to beat yourself up if you don't meet your expectations right away. Be patient but keep pushing!

Yep, I know EXACTLY what you mean! My sz 10s are uber-baggy now and I just bought my first pair of 8s that fit great but I still manage to have a muffin top with both the 10s and the 8s. Just the way we're shaped! ETA: higher waisted pants do help some. The Gap boot cut jeans don't look like mom jeans to me and are higher…

^totally agree. I signed up for match about a month ago and it has been reaaaaally fun! I'm in the same situation, I'm in a small college town, I'm older than the vast majority of the college kids and I just moved here. Throw in the fact that I have vastly different values (religion, politics, the whole shebang) than most…

I would LOVE a 6 pack! But ain't no way I've got the time to get there. I think any "naturally" obtained muscles are very attractive. Men or women who have clearly used steroids- not attractive.

I'll take 33! People always think I'm older.

aimstein: 27

Tony: 26 ETA: wait, you're 36!?!?! na uhhhh..

fact. I'd say I'm around an 8 +/- .5. I really have no idea what I'll look like at goal weight so I'm reserving judgement. Honestly though, if somebody told me "you can't lose any more weight, you will be that size forever" I'd be good with that. I'm really happy with my body right now.

The Big Lebowski. aaaaaaaaaaand.... The Big Lebowski.

ha! I LITERALLY just bought those gloves like 20 minutes ago... Obviously haven't tried them out yet either, sorry!

YES! I always eat my exercise calories back and I've lost 60 lbs. There have also been times when I have stubbornly insisted on eating too little for my body (the MFP minimum, 1200 net calories) and didn't lose a single lb for months. If you don't eat enough A) you're more likely to get frustrated and quit, or binge, B) it…
