tell us more about your personality and study habits. then we can give you more worthwhile advice. and i guess the type of school might matter too, or your major. if you have a major that depends on working a lot in other groups with other students or if you will be pretty independant. how social are you currently? etc

everyone has said what i thought right away, which was " but seven pounds in a month is great!" but what they haven't been telling you is that when you lose weight at a rate that is in the 1-2 pounds a week mark it's usually an indicator of how effective the loss will be. what i mean is that if you drop 12 pounds in a…

i always look like i'm about two to three months pregnant. it's really annoying and i feel like the more weight i lost the more accentuated my little kangaroo pouch gets! a cruel joke.

Cant say that i do. sadly. although i have noticed that when my father gets on his diet kicks around the holidays he drinks lots of diet drinks and things like crystal light to make his water taste like juice and his short term memory always seems to be affected during those times. naturally; that is an isolated incident…

in my preamble i mentioned that some would feel this was propaganda. i'm not sure what more i could have done there. i dont mind people having opinions different from my own, i just wish they'd be expressed in a more constructive debate driven way.

it's not my claim. it's an article that i personally found interesting because when i was young my doctor said that i was allergic to aspartame since every time i consumed something that contained it my body would reject it about 5-10 minutes later. reading this made me feel that perhaps WE as humans are just not supposed…

no. i do not claim to have read ALL scientific food related articles. not even close.

well i didnt force you to read. but since i'm a big fan of information i'd love to know more about PT Barnum. also, if you could respond with a little less of the "i'm laughing at you cause i know more than you" attitude, i'd really appreciate it.

wellllllll. on that note the FDA has also been saying for the last 60 years that the arsenic in chicken feed gets *ahem* digested and exits their systems before we consume any of the poison, HOWEVER, they FINALLY just admitted that they were lying. all. these. years. p.s. that chicken feed excrement gets added as filler to…

OMG COFFEE! LOL!

oh my gosh! i'm a big star trek fan and i dont know where you got this, and i'm not happy that i fell victim to the epic doubleface palm but i LOVE IT and i cant wait for an excuse to share it with someone else! lol.

i actually had a suspicion that someone was going to say that. but topic lines are short and i just wanted to give a good idea of what was inside for those who'd be interested. i'm sure even those who may not like my message can agree the reason for my topic line being what it is, is qutie valid :wink:

I'm confused why the majority of people seem to be mad at me for my suggestions. i never said hand out produce, that wouldn't be appreciated OR cost effective but what makes sidewalk chalk, or bubbles NOT a treat? kids LOVE bubbles and chalk and stickers too. no need to be offended, when you hand out only candy you're…

I can see a big difference. you're doing an awesome job!

so true. glad to see something positive on the forums too!

i'm down 0.5 ib this week. boy the way the pounds are just melting off of me you'd hardly recognize me! wait. that's not true at all. stepping it up this week sick or not. i dont care. and Merrill i NEED to do this again in OCT to hold myself accountable!

there ya go!!

okay. i was trying to save the excel doc in as anything else and i think that it just isnt cooperating or i'm dense. either is a distinct possibility so if curtis, brad, and jessalyn could just send me their email addresses that would be great. you can Private Message them to me. :)

alright i just peeked at your photos and you have nothing all to worry about! relax. :happy:

the only thing that i would say is a turn off is if the back is excessively hairy. other than that it really doesnt bother me at all. if they prefer to be waxed, good for them, if they like to be natural then that's fine too. but it's just something about a hairy back that makes me shudder.

i have made little graphs in an excel document that i'm updating as i get results. but i just realized that i have no idea how to get that to show up on here. how does everyone feel about me setting up a group email to send off the updates each week so we can watch each others progress? or would you all like me to keep…

well like Merrill, i'm also down 0.5 pounds this week. i'm gonna say that it's because i'm lucky enough to be on shark week and hope that it's the truth.... we'll have to see. I'm still glad to be down though! cant wait to see how everyone else has done! i managed to do a little something everyday this week. even if it was…

works for me. do you have a "starting weigh in" weight for last friday by chance? if not that's fine. just wondered. also. what's your name?

alright gang! i have my charts set up ready to go when we update our weights on Friday! i decided to do individual charts for everyone.

SO TRUE! glad it's working out!!

oh dear lord. i starved all weekend from working so much and having almost no time to eat and my body responded with anger. as in a 1 pound gain. i'm sure its just water weight but still. i dont like it one bit

After paying off what tiny amount of debt I still have, I would use the money to bring alive my dream of opening up a vintage style movie theater that shows old fashioned and foreign films that doubles as a cafe in the daytime. There is an old city (been there since the 1700's- long than the United States itself) that…

that is neglect via the parents as far as i'm concerned. that's not just about being overweight it's downright dangerous at this point. i'm completely appalled.
