It's probably poop/water retention. It happens.

If you truly are left with 900 calories at the end of the day, which I highly doubt...well then you have more than the one problem.

Trying to lose weight/get fit/get healthy is like having to live a double life or have a secret identity, I swear. I actively avoid discussing my eating habits, my workouts, my gains/losses, because EVERYONE has some sort of opinion they want to talk at you. Lets not even get into if you just want to lose a little excess…

I'm enjoying the colors.

Also I just found this and my mind is blown. I knew that butt was my dream butt. I felt the same feelings when I noticed DD's butt as I did when I noticed CA's butt. http://www.buzzfeed.com/alannabennett/marvel-illuminati-butt-conspiracy

I'd like to add, I'm also into cute butts and nice legs. Like soccer player figures. Yowza.

Hard to tell. When I see someone that I'm instantly attracted to, it's just that everything on them looks "right". The way they walk, talk, if they look comfortable in their skin, if it looks like they pay attention to their style, or have their own interesting style... On the really shallow end: I like nice hair. Doesn't…

Mine is open. It's pretty boring, but it's open.

I won't say it made me fat, but it definitely put me over considering I used to be very athletic and in great shape: I dated a chef who also happened to be an abusive *kitten* for a few years, and during those three years two of my favorite people passed away, my mother fell ill, I was laid off from my job, and my younger…

Omg, duck confit. I used to date a chef and for my birthday, he'd prepared duck confit a week and a half in advance for my birthday dinner (which included duck fat fried potatoes and vegetables, tiramisu, and plenty of wine)

Crispy, oily, fatty, fried salmon skin. But really honestly, greasy breakfast burritos and sandwiches. Every couple of weeks I let myself have a greasy breakfast meal from a fast food joint for dinner. Usually Jack in the Box.

Once a week I'll either make and eat a nice fat burger or a nice fat rib-eye (rare, thank you). The rib-eye usually has to be a solo event because I'm afraid of people seeing me become visibly aroused by the taste. I'm sorry, what was the question? Eat meat? Yes, eat red meat.

I've been in love with my whey protein since I started with it. It keeps me feeling full and helps me reach my protein goals, which was a bit more difficult before. Anywho: Lean proteins, fiber, healthy fats. Try to focus on those.

I'm type A+ so I only eat the best.

What I like about the dvds is that it incorporates upper and lower body compound moves for most of the dvd, and there's the cardio element. But that's simply a personal opinion and not any kind of real guidance. There will be more informed people commenting beneath me soon :)

Absolutely. I remember watching the Daredevil series on the elliptical (no, not all at once, though that would've been a unique binge session). I shudder to think if I were anyone else and someone spoiled it for me because they wouldn't wear earbuds!

This is actually A Thing. I've come across a few people who say "oh, yeah I don't like/eat meat." and then they eat chicken. Once, I was genuinely confused, because I could've sworn the person said they don't eat meat, and I said "oh, I thought you didn't eat meat.", to which the person responded with a disgusted…

I almost wish I had video of my tumble. It was pretty spectacular in itself, and then I still got back on and ran 5miles. Edit: You know, the messed up thing is that no one laughed or even acknowledged it. I was the only one having a good laugh at myself and I promise I've yet to walk in this distracted to my gym again.…

Please see the above bolded comment please and thank you.

You're entitled to your opinion, but if you can't back up said opinion, you're not entitled to be safe from the criticism that follows, which by your logic, we're equally entitled to.

I don't consider them treats. I just make space for it. I do however, log them as "sweets and snacks" so I can keep an eye on my intake of it vs my main meals.

Fish is meat, though.

I solved that problem. Now I have both.

I wouldn't call myself a pescetarian, but I do eat fish more days out of the week than not. Last night I made a delicious honey-miso baked salmon with some spicy stir fried udon and broccoli.

Ah, the backhanded compliment. Expect many of those as you lose weight, or do better for yourself in any area of your life.

My gym doesn't have free wi-fi. :neutral:

The author of the article needs to get over themselves and realize they're in no place to police how anyone should dress to work up a sweat.

Attractive woman being attractive not there explicitly for me and I can't use her existing as an excuse for my behavior? Oppression! My rights that I've had to fight for since ever! I deserve!

Don't even engage with this guy. Its gonna go nowhere.

Perhaps the number is not realistic, but if you really work, you can get slimmer.
