First of all, because one is fast does NOT mean they don't have an eating disorder. Ever heard of BED, binge eating disorder? Food addiction? You very well could have one that you havent come to terms with, who knows.. I get the being fat but never hungry. It has to do with what you're eating, your portions, and your…

I'd like to be that optimistic person that days journey. I'd like to enjoy the journey, sure, that's important too, but I think the destination better be well worth it too.. Name something other people seem to think about you or like about you that you don't agree about or understand..

I guess i can understand that if the motive is not truly to give opinion but maybe building the confidence of someone else...i guess its just hard for me to see that at first because i dont get ahy anyone would open themselves up to even the possibility of negativity while trying to improve something so delicate about…

Call me a killjoy if you will but arent threads like these counterproductive to what many of us are here to attain, confidence? Whenever someone blatantly says you're not pretty, if you're someone trying to be confident with your looks and if that confidence you're trying to maintain is what fuels your commitment to your…

Like being able to find clothes at almost any store would be nice :)

I am going to let that marinate...because it's true. You're right. And the part of me that wants to stay in my comfort zone of not taking that extra step needs to hear it. :\ Thank you!

kudos to you for running with those things. I'm a 40 DD and it hurts my back a lot.

Wow, sounds just like me, only I'm new to MFP and haven't been my lowest weight since I was 14. However, I'm really liking MFP and plan to stay active on here as much as possible. I find that talking with others and reading what issues and goals others have is very inspiring, plus it keep me from being bored and eating…

Hi everyone! 24 here with 70 pounds to lose. Been doing well so far. I love to have support and give support so anyone feel free to add me if you like. I feel that accountability is key as well so my Diary and my weight issues are an open book. Good luck everyone!

Me - 6 Binge - 0 Though I'm beginning to worry and wonder how long my winning streak can last. Today for some reason it was very hard to avoid the binge and I was afraid I almost wouldn't make it. Part of my mind was already at the 'because I'm already realllly thinking about it then i'm already screwed' stage, where you…

Good for you that's great! I know that especially when the temptful foods are free it makes it a lot harder sometimes to fight the urge. I always find it weird and somewhat hypocritical that expos for fitness like that often times have unhealthy foods like that and sugar-filled energy and protein drinks? I get that the…

Me - 4 Binge - 0 :)

Today I'm proud of myself for being able to say no to eating my full dinner plate in order to stay below my calorie allowance. The recipe I had planned had more calories than I had planned in the end, and it was great! But my boyfriend encouraged me to just eat half and see if I was still hungry, and I was not, and for…

Me - 2 The Binge - Still 0!!!!!

Today is such a fitting day that I stumble across this post. I only started MFP yesterday at the recommendation of my BF that said it was very helpful and user-friendly, and I've done great all day. As I was out running errands, I suddenly got this bad urge to binge, but i didn't. I remember my mind running through any…
