The cool think about punk rock is you can suck at your instrument and no one cares. I'm mediocre at best on the guitar. It was mostly something for me and my friends to have something to do after school that didn't involve actually doing our homework.

Just checking! I never heard "show choir" and I was in musical theatre. *soft shoes out, stage right*

(it's okay if it was musical theatre, I was in that, too) Jesus now that I think of it, I did a lot of crap in high school. I was also in a crappy punk garage band (guitar/vocals [I'm being generous when I say "vocals"])

Show choir, you mean musical theatre?

I haven't updated my deviant art account since I was like...16. Isn't it 100% furry porn now? Chibis? I've definitely improved since then. I don't have anything online at the moment.

^^^^^

Mixed media, usually acrylics, inks, watercolors. I was self-taught in photoshop and illustrator. I think it's really neat that kids these days have these amazing editor apps on their phones and are blissfully unaware of how it used to occasionally be a painstaking process to take film and digitize it and edit it from…

I mean, I was never shy. Just kind of aloof and distracted.

I was an awkward shy kid that liked to run in the mornings before school and participated in karate tournaments and dance classes...

Um, yes? I paint. For myself, though. I haven't done any commissioned work in years due to some pretty heavy stuff in my life clouding my noggin and messing with my confidence in that respect.

Well, that was 11 years ago now. I still look the same. Bright hair, bold outfits, and I kept mostly to myself or in my art classes, drawing, with a small group of friends. I always saw myself as sort of a loner and in my own head. Years later, it turns out people thought I was some kind of secret Fonz who was way too cool…

http://scoobysworkshop.com/accurate-calorie-calculator/ Calorie-wise, this has helped me. As far as rest days, I take one full rest day a week, but that's just me. Maybe you need two. You'll have to pay attention to your energy levels.

When I was starting off with Ripped in 30, I'd do it five days in a row, two day break, and wouldn't do anything more strenuous than walking a bit in the evenings. Six or more days in a row, hell to the naw.

Oh man, I love chips SO much.

Not trans, but a big sister to an awesome young trans activist. You can add me if you don't mind a boring cis-het woman on your feed.

Buy cooler/sexier/cuter/SMALLER workout gear. :)

What's helped me is coming here and keeping tabs on people who've obviously met and kept their goals by adding them to my feed/friends list. Also: Listening to solid advice and not just what I want to hear/wish would work. I feel a responsibility not to cheat myself, and these jerks keep me accountable. I used to go to my…

Why did your post get flagged twice?

I've heard of freezing it like that before. I'll need to try that and bake it or fry it like chicken tenders. For some reason my picky-eater little sister loves tofu.

Just don't stress too much about it, OP. Fit it in where you can, if you miss a day, you miss a day, just keep an eye on your calories if you're restricting them for weight loss.

You could do it like that, or if you feel like you've recouped enough for another run, go for it. When I get derailed, I just work it in where I feel comfortable. If I'm gonna burn myself out on one thing, I'll juggle things around. For example, I was going to run this monday, but for reasons, I couldn't, so I ran…

If you're going to marinate it in anything, just make sure to press out the liquid before you do so. Otherwise you can marinate it with any of the same things you'd use on meat. Oils, citrus, soy sauce, fish sauces.... I know it doesn't sound like I'm helping much, but my only good advice is to treat it like meat.

Pick up right where you left off. No need to make it complicated.

P.S. If you've never taken the Azo tablets, just a pro-tip: Wear dark underwear and don't freak out if what comes out looks like Sunkist.

+1 I once thought I'd handled the problem myself, but nope. Suddenly blood in my pee-full on kidney infection. NOT FUN. Get antibiotics.

It really does depend on the person. If it were me, not only would skipping breakfast make me binge on all manner and quantity of food, it'd also turn me into a Hangry Rage Monster. I can't function like a normal civilized human without some food within the first two hours of being awake.

I've seen recipes for smoothies using the silken tofu to add more protein, but I've never tried that.

Stir fry with lots of veggies, rice, peanuts or cashews... Use soft tofu in place of eggs in scrambles.... In soups! Baked! Fried! You can do a lot with tofu. The first time I ever tried tofu was in 5th grade. I had a vegetarian(vegan maybe) teacher who baked us a chocolate cake using silken tofu. I thought it was really…

If you're lucky: Yes, it will go away with fat loss. If you're not: You're in good company, most of us have to just deal with it.

He's actually kind of cute? I'm down. He can keep the bikini top on.
