  • Alright I need to ask you what's up with this because I'm from New Jersey and I heard of coconut chess pie for the first time on Saturday and not even the waiter at the restaurant knew why it was called chess pie. That pie was damn good though. I think it's third on my list, 1 and 2 being blueberry crumb and pecan…
  • 1: Just logged on for my first 30 day streak! I've never had a streak of more than 9 days before, and this time it didn't feel like an effort at all! 2: My dad, a former multi-marathon runner and basically my coach and idol when it comes to fitness, told me that I was in decent shape a few minutes ago after we finished a…
  • My sister was a competitive dancer up until June when she graduated HS, now she's starting her freshman year of college and she's so afraid of gaining the freshman 15 because she's never had to worry about her eating once in her life... I'm really hoping that she gains a ton of weight and I'll lose a ton and actually look…
  • I'm 5'2", and I calculated my goal weight 2 years ago by assuming I was 60% body fat and saying I wanted to get down to around 18%. When I did the math that turned out to be 120 pounds. I'm only a few pounds away but I'm not seeing the definition I would like, and I think my problem is that I haven't done enough regular…
  • I have hypothyroidism too, but I'm on a prescription for it. Age 22 Height: 5'2" CW: 127, ish GW: 120, but I want to lose more fat and put on some muscle, so it's not a firm number. I'm training for a 5K at the end of August, but I really need to start strength training as well
  • OMG I ATE SO MANY OF THESE (well imitations of these... I was a few towns away), not even when I was at my heaviest. And I don't regret a single one of them. I do regret this one time where I went to Dominoes on the way home, bought a medium cheese pizza and 2 chocolate lava cakes, brought them home and presented them to…
  • Thanks everyone. I'll try to measure and track more accurately. And I'll start eating starches again, but I'll put it back really slowly and figure out how much I can handle. Really appreciate all your help and advice!
  • sorry, it should be open now. A lot of the vegetables I don't bother logging because I eat them raw.
  • Absolutely agree. A few months ago I was skipping meals and living off of donuts and chocolate milk, probably averaging not much more than 1400 cals/day, but then I had bloodwork done and my doctor told me I was prediabetic. I have my diet under pretty tight control now, and the bloodwork cleared up fine!
  • Oh man that's my favorite drink! That with one of those packs of freeze-dried fruit!
