I have been thinking about buying a scale and after reading the good reviews I will go looking to buy one. I measure by cup, spoon, palm size (for meat), and divide portions by package nutrition info.

You have my support. :) I promise I won't mock or tease you. We have confidence in you and we look forward to your new future transformation.

Reading comments on MFP while listening to music. Artist: MNYNMS Song: Oracle (FM Attack remix)

I go for a teaspoon of raw organic honey in the cupboard.

After the first few months of walk/jogging I felt more confidence. This helped with any stress or unexpected anxiety I had to deal with on any given day. Eventually, I then started to walk/jogging more often just to clear my mind. Sort of distracted me while burning a few more calories too. So it did help me but everyone…

Intentional or not, the matter is clear. As I also stated that people from both sides of the spectrum suffer depression. It was only an example and I don't get the "the stupid *kitten* that leads to suicide" (?) part but oh well. Going back to my original comment, I think it's very interesting that foreigners from a poorer…

I thought human beings, by nature, will always look for easier ways of survival and comfort? Wouldn't there be fewer people in the world and little motivation to prosper if humanity "creates" suffering due to it being "inherent to the human condition"? For example, a small farming village in a developing country does not…

When it's been years, and you get your first compliments from complete strangers about your small size! Not to mention cat-calls from men driving past. Looking back, I think this may have made my guy a bit worried or jealous. Oh well.

Being patient with myself was my best quality when losing weight. I had to learn to forgive myself for gaining the pounds but be stern and honest with my goals. Pushing myself too hard could cause burn out, or worse an injury. This was realistic and an accepting view that I could tolerate. Daily, I would remind myself of…

I have pondered on the topic also. Recently I watched a brief documentary were young people ,who immigrated from an impoverished country, were asked what shocked them the most about modern countries. They said they saw far more unhappiness, less ability/willingness to share, and emotional distress than the poorer places…

In my opinion, I think a well rounded business should have both female and male massage therapists. I don't believe it is up to that business to assume what someone needs. The client should be up front with that business about their preferences (at appointment scheduling).That way all bases are covered for those clients…

Today I updated my goals here on MFP to maintain weight, but I got a shock when it added 800 calories (1700 calorie daily goal). I don't believe this is correct for me. I'm going to put the weight back on. I was eating that many calories when I was 130 pounds. That's not the weight I want. I'm thinking I'm going to have to…

You look gorgeously famous. :-)

Hello! And welcome to MFP! I started working out back in 2010 when i weighed 170 pounds. I had an account here once beforebut it didnt save my data. I signed up once again and so far have lost around 30 lbs.! Add me as friend if you like. :-)

I seem to do well on Almond milk but i'm lucky i'm not allergic to nuts. I found a youtube channel called Psychetruth and they had some great recommendations for shopping and diet food stuff.

Whenever I get down I go for a walk. It can be in a park or in the neighborhood, etc. My mind goes a gazillion miles an hour sometimes so I walk to burn off the stress and thoughts. Sorry to hear you're going through so much.

This is awesome! Sounds like a great idea! Count me in. :-)

Hello. I am not so new but I have never posted or talked with anyone on myfitnesspal. I just set up my profile page and up until now I have been using my phone app. It's great to hear that people are being friendly, supportive, and joining together to get fit. :)
