I make a super quick chili that doesn't require any chopping and can be ready in minutes. I dump a can of corn, green chiles, 2 cans of onion and garlic flavored beans, tomato sauce, and various spices (chili powder, salt, pepper, hot sauce, garlic powder, paprika, etc) in a pan and cook down for about 30 minutes. Top with…

To add onto this, if you mash the banana and freeze it, you get a nice ice cream like dessert!

You're a monster.

Eh, I'm considered obese by BMI standards but if I described myself that way to people, they wouldn't believe me. You are technically barely above the regular obese range according to a BMI calculator.

I personally don't weigh my food and have lost weight fine. However, I understand that a lot of people may need to so it's always encouraged.

Eat less than you burn throughout the day. That's all it takes.

The only way cookies are "unhealthy" is if you eat 5 pounds of them.

Dr. Oz would like to have a word with you.

I don't eat bacon but I LOVE cheese. What cheese do you think would be good in this?

OP, I'm going to be blunt here and if I offend you, I really am sorry. You remind me a lot of how I was so I'm giving you the tough love that I wish I had heard before I got to be the way I am now. What this person said is right on the money (see the bolded statement). Yes, you are lying. Not to us, but to yourself. I went…

Yup. I've lost over 40 pounds with PCOS. Also, if you weren't losing weight with eating 1200 calories then you weren't eating 1200 calories, you were eating more.

We aren't. It's likely this post will be removed.

I lost 12 pounds in two weeks in water weight just from restricting calories alone.

I second this. Ice cream will never break your heart.

Okay but you said to stay under calories though. So what's cheating about it?

I'm confused. How do you have a "cheat day" if you don't go over your calories?

You could try amputating something. I've heard that works wonders for some people.

I had a donut for lunch. That was my Monday.

I got so fat and sick from eating junk food despite the fact I'm vegetarian. You can modify almost all junk food to not include meat (extra cheese anyone?) so it's just as unhealthy. However, what's interesting is despite the fact I ate a bunch of fast food and fried stuff (for example Taco Bell 6 days a week), my…

I've never heard of adding plain fruit to water. Do you crush the fruit, cut it, or leave it whole? How long do you leave the fruit in the water?

What did you eat?

These instructions work well with asparagus too.

Salt and fresh lemon juice makes green beans extra tasty!

I have a large build and will never be under a size 12. Even when I was considered underweight, I was still a size 12. As much as I would like a thigh gap, it will never be for me. :smile:

None of the above. The correct answer is calories.

Wouldn't you have to be stick thin for your inner thighs not to touch though? All I can think of is stick legs. I'm a big girl that could never have a thigh gap so maybe I'm just not visualizing it correctly.

Be careful, diet soda contains dihydrogen monoxide which has been linked to millions of deaths worldwide.

I was looking at my shadow and realized that I didn't walk, I waddled.

Nothing. It's just water weight, it will go down eventually.

Nah, he targeted a lot of other women on the site. It wasn't just me. His whole point was to make as many women hate themselves as possible. Really though, this is a rare case. I've been on here for years and this is the only time I've ever gotten PMs like this.
