If you can't find it doing a search, add it in yourself?

Don't be a jerk. Some of us don't have normal sized stomachs and CANNOT physically eat more.

Obviously someone who doesn't live outside the Western world. No, it is NOT on the back of every container as it is not a law in most other countries. And, sometimes, if it is there, it is not in English.

Kuwait here, too. Finding nutritional info on some of the local stuff is a nightmare, and the things that are imported from the U.S. or UK is so bloody expensive! Fortunately, I order a lot of my food online and have it shipped in, but most of the time I am just guessing. It hasn't hurt and as long as moderation is key…

Where did you meet you partner? In Kuwait after the party that a bunch of us were at got broken up by security. We went back to one of the guy's house who was at the original party and that turned out to be my husband's roommate What did you first notice about him/her? How full of life and laughter he is. What is their…

I'm 28, married since 25, and have 3 dogs. I do not, and we will ABSOLUTELY not, have children. I have no desire and get called selfish on a regular basis, but so be it! I have too much traveling to do to have to worry about raising a heathen for the next generation :tongue:

"What's more, while he is a cheery fellow, he's not a markedly funny one."

LMAO! Really? Walks in the Middle East? That's just crazy. It's either too hot, too dusty, or too cold. I know that where I am, we only get MAYBE 3-4 weeks out of the whole year that are nice enough to do anything outside. Living in the Middle East can be rough when trying to stay healthy. Food is ridiculously expensive,…

"I CAN'T MOVE MY LEG!" Followed by..."Oh, both dogs are sleeping on my legs." :laugh:

I have tried A LOT of protein bars...and I mean A LOT. The only ones I thoroughly enjoy are the ISS Oh Yeah! protein bars. They are high protein (between 26-28g depending on which flavor) and relatively low carb (26-30g depending on flavor), and about 10g of sugar. The vanilla toffee fudge is the best flavor ever! The best…

^^ YES!

I was hesitant to share my stories, but here goes... I was in 8th grade when my parents decided to move to this farmhouse. Before we moved in, she took me to see the place. As soon as we pulled in to the driveway, I hated the place. I don't know what, but I had a VERY bad feeling. It was one of those in the middle of…

When I was 255 - "You don't look like you weigh that much!" At 155 - "Eat a cookie or something. You're too skinny." *kitten*!

Age: 27 Height: 5'8" SW: 255.5 CW: 152.8 GW: 160 (Yes, those numbers are correct. I am below my goal weight!) edited to add SW

Oh, how I understand THAT! The food police drives me absolutely crazy! Hubby has picked up on it recently, telling me just last night, "that's a big chicken breast; are you sure you should eat all of it?" Seriously?! *sigh*

My hip hurts when I start to run flat-footed, which happens after I start to get tired. I have to be very mindful of how my feet are hitting the pavement or I will end up in some terrible pain after I am finished!

Sleeved December 2011. I'm more than happy to have some fellow sleevers on my friends list! =)

^^^ YES!

Yes, mine does it frequently. It is not a strange occurence and it most certainly does not mean I'm hungry, especially if it does it after I eat. If I just fed my stomach, why would I still be hungry? Your head can manifest physical symptoms, so, yes, it most certainly could be psychological.

Whether or not the skin will bounce back is a mixture of factors - genetics, age, how much there is, how long you were overweight for, etc. I have lost over 100 pounds and have extra belly, arm, and inner thigh skin. I am 27 years old and there is no hope of my skin bouncing back. Those "miracle" products, such as lotions…

I, too, have a thing for the older guys. I married a man who is *cough* 20 years older than me! I don't know what it is about those older men, but DANG! lol

I'm a protein shake junkie! Most of mine are for breakfast and contain caffeine, but I'll include a few without if you are a drinking at night or late afternoon. With all of them, remember to add the powder after all liquids or else the protein will clump like crazy! Here are a few of my favorites... Syntrax Matrix 2.0…

I put dried cherries and dried blueberries in mine. My husband puts fruit cocktail in his and I have been known to put pineapple and strawberries in mine as well =)

Wedding day - 255 May 2012 - 155 Hasn't been updated since March, but I was very close to my goal. =)

I carb up before a long run. Other than that, I stay in the moderate zone with carb - between 120-150g per day. Run days, I try to get at least 175.

I've been in maintenance now for about 2 months. Actually, I am actively trying to gain muscle and have been lifting weights, but continue to lose a pound here and there (I am 12 pounds under my goal weight). I keep tracking to make sure that I am hitting my calories, or somewhere close, because I have a tendency to not…

NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Don't ever let carb counts in fruits/vegetables stop you from eating them!

I don't count spices and I do not put salt in anything, so I am not concerned. I don't watch sodium levels either. I log my vites because they contain carbs, which I do track. However, I do not log any other medications, such as tylenol or prescription medications that I may take. I do count my water mix-ins because I…

Sasha!
