  • Hey! 24 and 5'3", 155 pounds. I was originally 185, lost 45 pounds and then gained 15 pounds back I really need people to motivate me!
  • Tim Bits are the bomb-diggity though. I really don't blame you haha I went to a party last weekend and someone brought Tim Hortons doughnuts and Tim Bits and it was the most tempting thing of life.
  • A lot of people say it's the hardest to lose, however so far i've been lucky and my stomach and my face are the most noticeable changes since I've been losing weight I guess it really depends on the person/body type
  • Poutine. Glorious, freakin' poutineeeee. Poutine from Montreal on top of that, not crappy poutine from the rest of Canada. More than 1500 calories of awesomeness. Unfortunately, it is also the reason why i'm now on MFP hahaha
  • Here's a fun post-wisdom tooth surgery picture of me looking like a potato head when I got home hahaha 4 teeth removed in one shot, like a champ That being said, I was out for about a week or so, and I actually lost motivation for exercising and it went all downhill from there. In retrospect, even though I couldn't…
  • Oh, and for non-believers, even if it isn't true, i'm sure others has had similar situations and this thread could potentially help someone. And also the hardly any posts argument, I don't post very much. I mainly like to lurk >:D
  • I noticed most people on these forums are major buttlords. (i'm stealing that by the way, love it hahaha) But yeah, in a similar situation, I was on a stationary bike beside 2 other men. Man #1 was talking to Man #2 and was talking about this woman he knew that was in sales, and how "nobody would buy from a 200lbs woman"…
  • I love when people posts pictures. Everyone looks so awesome! Definitely motivating :D
  • I'm not here for the diet soda argument, but there is indeed something inside of sodas, even diet sodas, that make me extremely sick. Sick as in bed with the worst migraine ever and even breathing is extremely painful. Artificial crappy stuff like that is the only things that give me migraines, i've never encountered this…
  • I've been looking for a sports bra for weeks I had one from Walmart but it was meh. Nothing else fit me, but today I found a Nike one that came in XL that fits me quite well. There was an Under Armour one too but I found it was slightly too small.
  • I think my biggest pet peeve is having contradictory advice all the time. My doctor told me to not eat more than 1200 calories a day and I have no idea why because clearly that's terrible advice. Then people say carbs are bad, some say carbs are good. Ect ect. I learned to go with my gut feeling, do trial and error, and…
  • My dad is doing Herbal Life and he lost a lot of weight, however I have a very strong feeling that when he stops next month he's going to gain a lot of it back. Mainly because I feel like it doesn't get you in the habit of eating healthy. Not sure if people can view this outside of Canada, however they did an investigation…
  • You can't force anyone to do anything. Both my parents were addicts, unfortunately I got stuck with an extremely addictive personality. When I was younger, I was addicted off of pills until I was in the hospital. When I realized that was bad, I started shopping until I was flat out broke. It continues on and on. I even…
  • Let's be honest, all kids are little turds. I was a little turd, you were a little turd, even the teacher was a little turd at one point too. If a teacher said that all of her/his students were angels, i'd call total BS! They're dealing with pure chaos all the time!
  • **update** Since bringing my calorie intake up, i've had no more headaches :D Thanks again for all the help!
  • 22 here. I want to lose 40 pounds. Feel free to add me!!
  • Unfortunately my picture is of my big head hahaha it's okay, i've already accepted what my face looks like. As for the rest of my body, I think maybe after 20 pounds lost i'll post a before and after. And then one last one at 40 pounds.
  • I find not paying attention to any comments from anyone is the best way to go. My grandmother gets mad at the fact that I bought new food scales, gym membership, ect however at the end of the day these things are benefitting me and her comments are just words i'll forget about in a few days time. Even backhanded comments…
  • don't scare me like that! haha I shouldn't be pregnant.. I just had my period last week and my poor boyfriend has been pushed aside for the moment LOL but in the future I'll definitely keep that in mind if these things are happening again. I didn't realize the deficit that MFP already gives, so in that case if I probably…
  • Yeah sometimes when i'm stressed my neck gets really sore and I get migraines, however this isn't the case. It's not really a migraine though, just an annoying headache lol I'm on my way to the gym now, there's a pharmacy next door so I'll go get it checked out. It's a possibility that I didn't even think about!
  • I can't drink sodas, they give me really bad migraines (which in a way is good because then I definitely keep far away from them!) Chocolate gives me migraines too sometimes. I usually take codeine with caffeine though when my migraines start. I try to log all my water into my diary, but I usually drink a lot more since…
  • NOOOO NOT DAIRY :( lol actually it shouldn't be THAT hard because I found I cut it down already. As for the wheat and sugar though, I think those will be the harder ones. I'm definitely going to give it a try though. The hardest part is trying to find replacement foods for that.
  • I also want to add that I used to eat a lot of carbs until I started counting my calories. My carb intake did go down quite a bit so I don't know if it's that much of a shock to my body or whatnot.
  • I ate a tangerine last night before going to bed, I wasn't very hungry though, I just felt like having something fresh if that makes sense haha Yesterday I had breakfast and a coffee, and I still felt like crap at work. In the past I found when I feel sick, even though i'm really not hungry and I have to force myself to…
  • 22 here (: I need some weight loss friends!
  • Montreal over here! Feel free to add me, this is my second time trying to lose weight. I bought a proper scale and food scale as well and i'm actually excited this time around :D
