The serving size on both of these remained the same... I figured it was an adjustment for the first figure being a mistake, but at the same time I thought (with the sorbet) a 40% difference was a lot...

I know that very little can be interpreted just reading a message, but your tone in your initial post said to me that maybe there is a reason you're eating so much - because you feel bad that you're not gaining/eating so much. It's just a thought. Hundreds upon hundreds of times have I eaten not because I'm hungry (but it…

Feel free to add me, too. I agree I feel like my appetite does not usually match the size of my body. But then again, neither does my (normal/prior to a recent injury) level of endurance, so I guess it all works out. I am 5 foot 2, currently between 105 and 110 pounds. Probably close to 110 because I've been stress eating…

HAHAHAHA!

I hate ICP, but to be ridiculous I once threw an ICP party where we all painted our faces. Anyways, I didn't read the above posts, the title of this thread just caught my eye, because there is a really good short (about 20 min.) documentary about ICP fans and culture, available to watch on the internet. Like I said, I hate…

Oh I'm sorry I misread this! I thought you wanted tips for quitting, not tips for avoiding weight gain while quitting. I gained 20 lbs and had lost all but 15 of it within about a year, until I broke my femur and gained some back. The stuff that you do snack on...try to make low cal? Also, like I'm sure you've heard,…

I couldn't do cold turkey, the few times that I tried (smoked for six years). Instead, I followed this "rule": I will smoke the least that I can. This led to smoking less and less cigarettes. Of course, after a while, I was down to like 3 cigarettes a day and found trying to go to 2 was terrible, so that's when I went to…

I hope to do something on my college campus next year to raise awareness of eating disorders. There seems to be no group doing such thing as of now.

I mixed it with canned tuna - yummy!

It took me a full year to quit, and I'd say the biggest influence was not living with smokers, and taking it one day at a time. I said to myself, "I'm just going to smoke the least I can, every day". And so I tried. And some days the least I could was still a lot. It took me a year, and a 20 pound weight gain (6 months…

Have you tried Yerba Mate tea? I often replace coffee with it, and I once had a roommate who completely replaced coffee with it.

I guess Sea Snax/dried seaweed. It is very low calorie, but has NO nutritional value, and is EXPENSIVE! I try not to buy it often. But it's so tasty....!

Done! I said, "other", because I think I would eat anything in an extreme situation, but I do not think I could ever kill someone.

Interesting. I don't think I continue to dream once I awake, but I often choose to and am able to continue a dream right where I left off after I wake up and do something like use the bathroom, turn off my alarm, take a quick phone call, etc. Perhaps I never fully wake up, then in those cases.

I am starting one soon (tomorrow would be nice, but who knows), that my nutritionist gave me many months ago. It's called, "Eat what you love, love what you eat".

Thank you! Next semester I have class at 8 am every day, so that will change things up a bit, and I will have to get up at 6:30 (because I have to catch a bus). Mine is called sonic boom I think actually, but the brand is sonic alert? Anyways yes it has the vibration which I use, I've been getting up to turn the whole…

I boiled it according to the directions.

So, is there a way to cook it (besides fried), that won't be slimy?

Also, just realized that I move A LOT in my sleep, and I dream so intensely, but all the while sleeping very heavy. Very rarely do I wake up during the night. I remember a doctor once prescribing something telling me that troubles one has concentrating during the daytime can sometimes be attributed to getting poor sleep.…

I have never bought it myself, only tried it here and there, and I do think it tastes better than soy (I drink west soy brand - but only IN things like coffee, cereal, etc.) but there's virtually no protein in it, and that's always why I don't buy it. However, once I kicked dairy milk for good (I was always grossed out…

I am 22, so no growth spurt. The food I eat is balanced, I think that yes, with exercise, it just might be that I'm not getting enough. The quality of my sleep is great! I'm very lucky! As for the time...I don't think that has much to do with it. Except for when I have a lack of sleep from previous nights, I never go to…

I should also add that even as a kid, I've always been able to sleep 12+ hours, no problem. When I didn't have much going on in my life, I'd do 17 in a row on the weekends, easily. I sleep heavily and always dream very vividly, and start dreaming almost immediately. I think I might have more fun than many people do…

We don't have any public things, but we do this weird thing when we find our feet or hands tangled together in bed where we "clap", each using one appendage...it's great fun! We joke about doing it at a public event someday instead of clapping seperately.

Recently a good friend told me I remind them of MATILDA. A compliment based on character, not appearance, but I think that this picture of me as a child confirms me as pretty cool (though not as cool as Matilda, obviously.)

This is an assumption, but I'd guess that any body sculpting or calorie burning benefits to wearing heels wouldn't be worth it compared to the long-term effects on your body. (That is if you wear heels quite often).

I've been doing the same thing as you...my gym opens back up on Monday, and I'm just gonna get back to routine and try and think of it as a few weeks of progress lost. If it turns out to be just water weight, then I will be pleasantly surprised.

You have great eyebrows :]

I've been wondering about this in regards to thanksgiving...
