  • Same problem here, though not as bad since I just started a new medication and can't really drink more than a glass at a time. Well, I **can**, but I don't want to make myself sick, so I don't. It's tough, because every social event/gathering seems centered around drinking. :confused:

  • I was taking One a Day for women for a long time, along with an extra B Complex tablet (I'm a bit on the deficient side), glucosamine chondroitin (for my joints), St. John's Wort (for my moods), Ginko Biloba (helps me focus), and sometimes fish oil (I hate the after burps! so I usually mix ground flaxseed in whatever I'm…

  • I work out more regularly now that my husband and I cancelled our gym membership. It was harder to motivate ourselves to drive there after a long day and we often only showed up a couple times a month. We decided to invest in our own equipment instead. (weight machine and elliptical) My husband uses the weight machine way…

  • Hi Amber. I'm Liz. I've been "trying" to lose weight for a very long time and just recently decided to work on making permanent lifestyle changes instead. I hope we all get closer to our goals, whatever the outcome of this challenge. ^_^

I love--scratch that--LIVE to write dark fantasy fiction 2. My husband and I BOTH have ADHD--good times 3. I'm a scorpio 4. I'm a cat person 5. I've had more than 30 jobs in my…

  • Yes. Have you ever pretended a friend (male or female) was your significant other so someone would stop flirting with you?

  • I have very mixed feelings about the whole fat-love thing. In some ways I feel that the sentiment is very misunderstood by people not experiencing it. I've always seen it as a decision to love and respect your body no matter what shape it is in. It's a refusal to be dragged down by the constant fat-shaming that goes on…

  • Hmm, this is a really loaded question. Anyone who says no, for whatever reason will no doubt be ridiculed for being "shallow", but really anyone faced with the choice of dating a great person with a hot body and an equally great person with a not-so-hot body would most likely choose the hot person. Human nature. We're…
    in Would you date someone overweight? Comment by bludflower April 2014
  • I have to eat something small (an apple or some peanut butter on a slice of bread) before I work out in the morning, otherwise I'll feel dizzy and sluggish. Later in the day, it doesn't really matter. As long as I've eaten something within the last few hours, I'm good to go. Also, I drink water throughout my workouts, and…

  • Supernatural, American Horror Story, The Walking Dead, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Torchwood (before they took it to the US in that last series). I like Dr. Who, as well, but never got as into it as I did with Torchwood. I like the crazy, spooky, gory stuff...with sexy guys thrown in. There are no sexy guys in AHS, but the…

  • That's really unfair and insensitive of some people. I've been overweight since I was about 11 or 12, but my oldest sister has the exact opposite problem. She could never put on weight and looked downright sick at times. One thing she taught me is that being called "skinny" to your face hurts just as much as being called…

  • I use my Xbox 360 Kinect for a lot of my workouts, but for those who don't have one, I like Leslie Sansone's walking videos--they're fast, low impact aerobics, and can be done in the house--and Leslie's cheerful and motivating rather than overly perky and annoying. I also switch it up with Yoga videos, light weights, and…
