  • OMG -- this is so awesome! I'm in a similar situation to melizzzzard's, so this thread is so applicable. I haven't decided if I want to do focus on MFT or just general LPC since the ultimate goal is working towards counseling children and families in a hospital setting. Thanks, jenn!
  • Hahaha. Whenever I get this question out of the blue (as in some random stranger comes up to ask me this = in my experience usually some guy with yellow fever-- ick.), I actually pull out the Texan in me and respond in Southern drawl. So many good laughs out of their responses.
  • WHAAAAAAAT. I totally should've done this :P
  • Died laughing at this one when I saw it last week.. and then immediately started craving fish & chips. Also, has anyone else noticed that people who ask this question never say it normally? In my experience, they always slow it down and say "Where are you FROOOOOM?" How do y'all respond in real-life to this question? I'm…
  • Wow-- didn't realize that there were so many of us! Age: 22 Height: 5'4" HW: 160 CW: 150/151 GW: 125 or however close I can get while toning up (I have quite a bit of muscle so I'm not sure how much mass I can lose)
  • Northwestern University for my Bachelor's in Psychology and Business Institutions. Now working at SMU (Pony Up!) and gearing up to start my M.S. in Counseling here :D
  • I hate to play Devil's Advocate, but have you tried to include him on your transformation into healthier living? When I first started my fitness regimen my parents (especially my mom) were extremely doubtful since I had "tried" many times before but never really stuck to it. I think part of it was that I would…
  • Based on what you told us in your introduction, I actually don't see anything that you're doing wrong -- in fact, you're well on your way to your goal! You've lost 10 lbs over the last month and inches off your waist/hips. Like aakaakaak suggested, give it a little more time and track your progress on June 15 to see if…
  • You have to use the Groupon, not the MEMDAY20 code. I just bought a Flex for a total of $25 + $58 (including tax) = $83. Granted the slate one doesn't ship out until June 20 and the black one is on back order for 3000+ more people (yes, I called to ask), but it's better than the 8-10 week delay that both REI and FitBit is…
  • Ooooh that makes more sense :) Well I'm sure @PartyKardy can help you out a lot more, but I wear make-up daily for work because I'm still young at heart and sometimes it translates to my skin through acne. I try to stick to very hypoallergenic, light makeup for daily use because I have sensitive skin, and the most that I…
  • 22yo, 5'4", and 25lbs to go. My biggest fear is that the 25lb goal is not reasonable given my muscle mass (I'm an ex-athlete), but I know I'm not about to go down without a fight (literally) :D
  • I ride with my boyfriend, but he's the more experienced one so he usually rides ahead and sets the pace. Mostly I'm just focusing on keeping up with him, not running over small children (exact thought every time: WHY ARE THERE SO MANY ILL-BEHAVED ONES ON TRAILS?!) or slow walkers with headphones in (sometimes I get a sick…
  • Please feel free to add me! (Especially if you're in the DFW area :D )
  • This is exactly where I am too :( I have struggled with body image issues since I was a pre-teen, and it's a daily battle to tell myself that I look great today and that this is the greatest I have looked ever. It helps that my boyfriend is supportive, but there are definitely times when I shake off his compliments because…
  • I agree with making sure everything is washed and dried before putting in separate bags (I use Ziploc -- cheapest and reusable). If it helps, you can also put a dry paper towel in the bag on top of the vegetables to soak up any remaining condensation. It has worked out really well for me. Also, for fruits/kale/easily…
  • I feel like I'm cheating since I'm technically in between college and grad school (looking to start in January 2014), but I work for a college! I majored in Psychology, minored in Business for my B.A. and I will be (hopefully) doing my M.S. in Counseling over the next few years while working :)
  • So funny, but my name is also Abby :) I'm 5'4" (1.65m) and I just weighed in today at 150.5lbs! What are you currently doing for fitness/nutrition?
  • I used OkCupid and ended up meeting 4 guys in-person. 2 out of the 4 I still keep in touch with, 1 was not what I was looking for (not college educated and lied on his profile about it, then I got the vibes that he was only looking for a ONS, which was also not what I wanted -- you can usually tell pretty fast with those…
  • Hi! I'm 5'4", CW: 153, GW: 125, 22yrs :D I'd say we're really similar, so feel free to add me!
  • Hey, y'all! Not sure if this is still open, but I'm 5'4", 22yrs, CW: 153, GW: 125. Based on the OP I'd say we're pretty spot on :)

  • F, 5'4", 22 years, CW: 153, GW: 125 Feel free to add me!
  • Addison/Galleria Mall area!!! Any foodies out here? (And by foodies I really mean cooks because I am now a firm believer that anything I make will be OVER 9000x more healthy than most of the restaurants I can choose from.)
