Calorie cycling is what I call it or others call it calorie zig zag. There are websites that will help you calculate how many to eat each day of the week, so you're not necessarily ever "going over." The goals just change day to day =] It actually works really well. I haven't got that much more to go so I really hit a wall…

I only have 2 wisdom teeth to begin with (my mom had none lol). Anyway they haven't grown in at all or caused me any problems so I will most likely not need to have them pulled. I would probably ask around a bit more having had braces and dental surgery I feel like the dentists I've been to were always trying to get me to…

Sounds interesting, you're right that our food and acceptance of huge portions is out of control as well as how society has changed to allow for morbidly obese people to feel like there's nothing wrong with being that over weight. You can tell who read what you're actually talking about and who didn't lol. ^^^^

That's a start at not letting food control you. =] Good job! Most people are here have that same issue and you CAN beat it. I can finally say food doesn't control me anymore, I enjoy it but when I'm full I'm done, I move on. This has taken over a year to get a hold of though. To start I would force myself to leave…

Love this lol

Trail mix for sure. Granola. I was mostly shocked by what a serving actually was. I probably ate at least 3 servings of everything. I can't imagine that now! lol On a positive note, I never realized how low calorie popcorn was!

I agree and I think being an apple would be nice. I lose from my stomach easy but oh man my thighs are holding on Neil the bitter end!

I used to eat it with ground pepper and celery. My mom eats it with tomatoes.

Did you possible calculate your total daily energy expenditure (TDEE) rather than BMR? 1800 does sound like a lot lol that's my tdee while my BMR is between 1400-1500.

You should be netting at least 1200 to keep your body functioning. go to fitnessfrog.com figure out your BMR that's the MINIMUM your body needs just to sit around all day no eating, nothing. So you should never eat below your BMR. I understand not wanting it to take a long time, it's hard to be patient with this, but…

Look up some crock pot dishes. I don't eat meat but I've seen people mention chicken and salsa in a crock pot. I've been looking for a channa masala crock pot recipe that would be good. Or if you google it there are crock pot burritos. I love the idea of crock pot dinners lol.

I've heard of some people make a burrito wrap it in foil than put it in a thurmus with a little hot water and it's supposed to keep the burrito from getting dried out but keeps it warm.

I set my hrm to beat if I get out of my 130-170 bpm goal. Than I read =]

I'm so crabby and tired if I average 1200 a day. Some days I'm just not that hungry but that's rare lol.

I agree with this and the maturity level could be an issue, for me anyway I just wouldn't want to date someone so much younger. However who is anyone to tell you who you can and can't date? Do what makes you and the other person happy, as long as they aren't a minor it really doesn't seem like an issue.

er...carbs and sugar won't kill you or make you gain weight? It's about calories, obviously you should be consuming better quality calories to perform better but I guess if corn makes you feel sick that would be a legitimate reason. Anyway, OP, I don't like cheese anymore back in highschool I used to put parmasean cheese…

your body can cleanse itself. I did intermittent fasting for two days a week for two weeks. I did a breakfast to breakfast fast, it's called eat stop eat.

1000??? Try 1400 you'll feel much better, also low fat doesn't make you lose any faster, so unless you have a health condition or a dietitian told you to do low fat, I wouldn't worry about it.. =]

I don't worry so much about how long it's been since they've logged in. I mostly delete people who don't give any support back.

I agree with Brian. I've also found when running in the rain (if it's pretty cold out too) that my throat and ears hurt REALLY bad for a couple hours after my run because of the cold rain, so I try to keep a scarf or something. Otherwise running in warm rain is really nice =]

He either wanted a snack or to be held. <3 Winking at me. So sweet =] His name is Ragen, he's a chihuahua but I'm suspicious his mom was a min pin mix.

lol It's a persuasive letter for my business writing class. The teacher is cruel in his grading, I put a comma where a semi colon should have been and I got I think around 5 points off.

Trying to focus on writing a paper =[

.....all cheese is old except cheeses like mozzarella and even then it goes through what I think is a fermentation stage.. lol

Eh well I mean who am I to judge them on their appearance, I'm sure some of those girls are great people and some may be meanies. All of the girls are lovely in their own way, however solely based on the appearance of their bodies I would say none of them are at a healthy weight. Looking at only faces number 3 is really…

I would assume the amount of work put into producing it, the quality of products going into it, and the length of required aging. Only thing I could think of lol.

Bleh I hate when people do that. If looks could kill there wouldn't be any more of those at my gym.

I've been running for about 6 years. My mile times range anywhere from 8:30-10:30. I still have "I want to quit" thoughts the first 5-10 minutes just depends on the day lol.

I agree, you're an adult. Try cooking them with soy sauce or buy a spaghetti squash and eat it wish sauce. I have always liked vegetable but once I made them a main part of my diet I would rather eat them over most things.

No one with my first and last name Only about 3,000 with the name Allegra. I love my name =]
