*snort* I love you, Jim.

It exists. And it's a trainwreck.

I grew up in a 1500 sq. ft. 3 bedroom house built in the 1960s and the people I were friends with thought I was rich. It's all about perspective. Nobody wants to watch a show about poor people.

Congratulations. Being honest with yourself is an important step. :-)

I bet you get spankings for bad behavior too, right?

How are they the wrong crowd? Do you log your tacos and barrels of ice cream?

No! Tone not! Lose fat or lose no fat. There is no tone.

I've been doing it off and on for 5 years now. Every time I'm off, I gain weight. Pre-logging makes everything easier, that way I'm not logging all day long every day.

And now I know why I don't go to public gyms. Lord forbid someone there thinks I sweat too much...at a gym.

I don't recall anyone with an injury ever saying "Gee, I wish somebody told me I was doing this wrong."

The women with bigger butts than me working to build their butts. Like, way to butt shame me. Now I feel bad about my lumpy butt.

I get the point you're trying to make, but I feel like whether or not something turns a food bad is so subjective. Papayas and mangoes are the primary fruits that are irradiated at the border, and I for one, can't tell a difference.

Okay, I stand corrected on it not being true. However, I will still testify that the top 6 citrus producers in Texas, primarily grapefruit growers, do not use this dye. Florida has a number of citrus diseases they have to deal with, like sweet orange scab and citrus canker, so it makes sense that they would need to alter…

Yeah, don't do it if you're pregnant, plan to become pregnant, or are nursing. I don't think the foods we eat fall under any of those categories, though. :wink:

Right now there are agriculture stations at the Texas-Mexico border that xray and irradiate certain types of produce (avocado is not yet one of them) to prevent any live plant pests from entering the US. That's about the only treatment I can think of, but it doesn't turn the food bad. Edited for grammar.

I'm pretty sure this is not true. At least, the oranges and grapefruits in Texas, I can testify, are not sprayed with anything that make them orange.

Okay, so how many points were you eating at WW to lose weight? I'm just trying to understand what you did to lose since all I'm getting are directions to facebook and generalities.

Why on facebook?

No you read it right. That's (partly) why I asked if she's here to count calories to maintain. I'd like a small snippet of what she eats in a day, but she doesn't have a public diary.

So how long have you been on MFP? Are you here to do calorie counting for maintenance?

How tall are you?

How many calories were you eating a day? What did you do for exercise?

lol, it's fine. Sorry nobody answered your question. Protein is a good thing.

Keep up the good work!

Yay for grandmas in their 20s!!!

I was constantly up and about during my pregnancies too. Doesn't mean I didn't feel a thing. Know your limitations. Please.

As was mine.

A big giant NO.
