<envy> It's been too long since I liked the way my legs looked... </envy> Congratulations on hitting that mark! Me, I'm focusing on my leather belt. I'm at the 4th hole, with only one hole left, and my goal is to get to the point that I need a new belt.

I'm a somewhat well-known furry artist, and I used to enjoy live-action roleplaying (hence the name!) before my fibromyalgia started killing me.

Friend request sent, you're right near me!

I think I've got a good grasp of the system, so maybe I can explain it in a different way. I'm going to use example numbers to make a point; they're not based on any actual numbers, they just make the point. Bear with me: MFP tells you how many calories you need to take in each day to LOSE weight. (As an example, we'll say…

Ooo, good link m****haut! They've even got links below for figuring out the minimums based on your BMR and so on. Nice find! "If you want to lose fat, a useful guideline for lowering your calorie intake is to reduce your calories by at least 500, but not more than 1000 below your maintenance level. For people with only a…

I once SWORE I'd never get over 200lbs, and if I ever did, I'd work and sweat and diet until I was back down to size.... Oops. I'm not that far over, but yeah, I've got 12lbs to go, and I can't wait to see the scale below the 200lb mark again... It's been years!

Here's the formula for figuring out your ideal minimum calorie count: Basal Metabolic Rate Your basal metabolic rate, or BMR, is the rate at which you burn calories without performing any activity. The most accurate method of determining your BMR is to measure your calorie expenditure rate while you're not digesting food.…

If you click the X at the top of the ad, it shuts up.... but then you mouse over it, and it starts all over again. I HATE rollover ads, especially when they're so hard to dodge!

Ooo, yikes, that's a tough one. How are you with mushrooms? Portobello mushrooms are a GREAT alternative to meat, you can cook them up like steaks, or use them as a meat substitute in stir fry. Stuffed mushrooms are amazingly delicious, and you can use rice instead of bread for the stuffing mix. A little bit of Parmesan,…

The ex. :laugh: Although when we were dating, various things I'm sure you wouldn't want to hear. Think along the lines of the opposite of "Yes Mistress". :wink:

I have one, and about to get another. The one I have is a simple line art of a wyvern on my left shoulder, I got it when I turned 21. Designed it myself, but the tattoo artist messed it up a bit: he dug too deep and it scarred over. It has an interesting side effect, though... The entire tattoo is raised! You can feel…

Totally seconding on the tea thing. A nice herbal tea with a little bit of honey in it is JUST the thing to curb an appetite. Green tea is a natural appetite suppressant, as well as peppermint supposedly. You can also get relaxing teas that will make you feel more sleepy, which also means you're less likely to munch on…

Yeah, I hit a point where I got bored with food, partially because I went on a really strict diet recently thanks to health issues: No gluten, no eggs, no milk, and no caffiene. ((o.O)) ACK. So I started playing with ethnic foods. Learned how to roll sushi and make a bento box. Discovered the perfect teriyaki recipe.…

Haha, thanks Kebennett, I know I'm beautiful, I'm 5'5" and 220lbs, but I have a classic perfect hourglass figure and hair down to my hips. I can already attract a guy... but I'd like to FEEL better, feel sexier, and just in general feel healthier. If I can lose 40-60 lbs, I'll be back to the weight I was when I was…
