Both nice but number one is gorgeous and looks a lot more formal. Save number two for a sexy date night. Go with number one!!

OP, cheese omelettes, egg salad on bread (if you're all anti-mayo use greek yoghurt or something and you'll only be a little disappointed with your life). I usually just have boiled eggs with salt and pepper.

YES, perfect timing. Does anyone here have links to any credible source for the premise that there is no significant correlation between eating cholesterol-laden foods and having high cholesterol? And/or that high cholesterol is generally linked with obesity and overeating rather than eating cholesterol-heavy foods. Thank…

For me it was the description of the chocolate-covered cherry spit swap in the bathroom, coupled with the amateur erotica style of the post, which made my first reaction one of general discomfort and ewww. That said I'm really glad the OP is happy with her husband's demonstration of love. All that matters is that she's…

This thread was largely messy and disappointing. (Much like a Chipotle's burrito bowl haha (I've never even had Chipotle ;_; )) Thanks OP for the sentiment. I don't think you were being whiny or you need to man up, just that you realized something that you didn't realize before and wanted to share your info with others. To…

Change your username. Seriously. If that's what you think about yourself, this whole exercise is a total waste of time. When you log on and look at that you're giving yourself an out because you're already telling yourself who you are and what you'll do. Change your mindset so that you are not reliant on motivation (which…

Far from relatively light, but great stuff!! Really glad I'm following you on here. Thanks!

This is so great. Thank you!! I really would love to count calories forever but I'm not sure if it's realistic. I think meal planning may be a good option for me, I'm already kind of there in terms of breakfast and moving there with lunch. Gonna see what happens along the road ahead.

I feel you completely! I felt like I was going a bit overboard, but tbh when you're weighing "every single thing that crosses your lips" there will be that element of neurosis right? Chicken bones? Raw mushrooms? Sigh I do weigh but some things I just can't be 100% accurate about - for example, I know that conventional MFP…

Oh boy... You seem pretty level-headed, OP. So...fill in the blanks. If I were to hazard a guess I'd say you're overestimating your burns and underestimating calories. Weigh and track your food really well. Think about what you want ultimately - to be skinny, to be fit, to be strong, to be thick - and do some research…

Hey, I kinda love you right now! Because it really bothers me when people harp on the density/weight issue. I feel the same way about self-proclaimed "grammar Nazis". It's like their intention is not to communicate the correct terminology, but instead to show the world that they understand the right way of doing things…

Lol thank God, I'm having sweet potato for lunch and you totally scared me

I would bet that you're not logging accurately, but in the event that you are, you should eat more. Yes you can eat way less than recommended, lose weight, and live, but you'll be malnourished, will lose muscle, and will be fatigued. I am getting the impression that you're not interested enough in making a change in your…

It's a lot easier to do this if you're motivated by love and not hate. Work on accepting yourself and loving yourself as you are - fat, thin, whatever. Your fat does not make you unworthy of love. You have to decide you are worthy of becoming the person you want to be, and once you do it's so much easier. If you're a…

Having metabolic syndrome and needing to follow a restrictive diet to fix it is so much sexier than having miscalculated your intake and output and needing to eat less calories than you're currently eating.

I don't think you're shallow for thinking that sexual attraction is important in a relationship, because I feel the same way. However, if you are solely attracted to someone based on their physical features, (not saying you do) and disregard other aspects of attraction like chemistry and otherwise getting along, I would…

Ok come on you guys. Stop being so mean to the OP! She doesn't have enough time to do what she would like to do, because of her really busy schedule. She just wants to know how come other people are not as busy as her, and can work out when she can't! OP, I totally understand. Unlike everyone on this thread other than…

I am amazed at the number of persons who didn't pick up on this sophisticated trolling. This was amazing. Suffering from utter amazement. I didn't read the books, I can find badly written fanfic for free online all on my own without every Kindle-wielding woman wishing the world to know how risqué and sexually open she is,…

Heyy good job, awesome results so far! Keep it up!

Someone disagreeing with you and your choices doesn't make him hateful. It means he thinks his opinion is better than yours. Just like you think your opinion is better than his - if you didn't, you wouldn't have a problem with him disagreeing with you, would you?

My cat sleeps in the bed whenever she feels like it. (I call it "the bed" to preserve some dignity. It's really hers. Sometimes I even find myself knocking on the door when I get home. :cry: ) It is kind of gross but I'm ok with it, I just don't think about all the gross cat butt germs.

OP said she came up with the recipe and it did not come from a website. So why keep pushing this point? OP, I really don't think the extra three calories will make a significant difference in the long run so I wouldn't worry about it too much lol.

In - want someone to attempt and report back on the grossness

Your friend didn't lose 70 lbs because of Herbalife, he lost it because he ate at a calorie deficit. You can achieve similar results by using different supplements or shakes, or without using anything at all. Herbalife and similar weight-loss miracles are so popular because a lot of people have problems believing that they…

It's pointless if you consistently eat at a deficit or maintenance without thinking a lot about what you're eating, which is the case for many persons (pointless meaning unnecessary because you're already doing what you need to do in order to reach or maintain your goal size). If you have trouble eating at a deficit or at…

Sorry that happened, that sucks! Take some time (not too long) to feel bad and then make a concerted effort to let it go so that it doesn't negatively impact you or hinder your progress. Some people will always be horrible to others, maybe because it makes them feel better about themselves? Regardless of their motivation,…

That sucks!!! (I don't have anything else to add - if you don't eat any meats at all I guess you can have really huge salads every day for lunch, and broccoli and carrots for dinner?)

I have digestive trouble drinking cow's milk and never really liked it. I really like how almond milk tastes (can't stand soy).

I don't think this is the case, SezxyStef. If you check items with no confirmations, it reads "member submitted, 0 confirmations". Given this it appears that what is member submitted is the actual entry and not the confirmations. Also, judging from the structure of the phrase, I would think that the entry is what is member…

Period wars, lol. My period is much worse if not much much worse than every single one of you!!!!!!!!!!!! No but seriously, unless you have an honest-to-goodness medical issue that goes way beyond cramps and pain and lethargy and feeling ****ty, which is to be expected, push yourself to work out anyway. It's likely that…
