  • I love bald people! Your head looks so smooth :) (I'm completely serious too. Everytime I see a bald head, I just want to touch it)
  • I think a lot of people on here have binge-eating disorder. I read somewhere that (allegedly) 2% of obese people have BED, though I wouldn't be surprised if that number was way higher. It's rather upsetting for me because most BED patients are overweight, but because I'm not overweight I've had people not believe me when I…
  • I'm all for new friends, but it really bothers me when people send me a request without sending me a message first. I just delete it if there's no message with it. I'm not trying to be rude, I just don't want people adding me so they can see why my profile is private and then delete me. For anyone who is curious as to why…
  • Ever since starting birth control I haven't had cravings or tiredness or any PMS symptoms, really. It's wonderful (though I did gain 3 pounds, but that's normal). No matter what I eat though, I always gain weight when the communists are in the fun house. I still get bloated even with the pills (though the bloating makes my…
  • Vodka! I haven't tried Smirnoff whipped cream, but I have tried Burnett's and if they taste similar at all, you can just drink it straight - no chasers needed. It's only 65 calories/shot too yaaaay. I also really want to try Smirnoff fluffed marshmallow. Has anyone tried that? I want to know if it's good before I spend the…
  • Right now I want to stay in my country, but I so want to go back to Boston. I'm really craving a stroll through the Fens or window shopping on Boylston, or a casual walk through Boston Harbor and feeling the cool Atlantic breeze wash over me. I miss that city hardcore right now. Hell, I even miss the Harvard Square red…
  • Honey, you sound like you could really benefit from speaking to a therapist. I know sometimes it might be embarrassing to talk to someone about an eating disorder, but it will really help you to pinpoint your triggers and come up with more appropriate things to do when you've lost motivation than eat. One thing I have to…
  • /sigh Is satanic panic starting again? I thought we were done with this. It's a load of bull.
  • What do you do if you drink your meals!? :O Trolololol
  • rsrsrs oh the alcohol...I'm glad I'm a lightweight otherwise I'd be so obese. But I don't find losing weight at school to be all that hard...I walk to class, sometimes I walk to my lab if it's nice out, plus I'm in class or work all day so I can't spend my time eating. Plus, as bad as it is, I love midterms — test anxiety…
  • I time myself when I eat. Usually when people binge they eat large amounts of food really quickly. It takes time for your brain to recognize you're full. Giving yourself plenty of time to eat can really help you notice your full time. It took me 25 minutes to eat a sandwich and some pretzels the other day. I was soooo…
  • Biking! At the gym, I get bored easily and only bike 5 or 6 miles when I'm there, but when I'm home in the summers, I try to bike 10-12 miles every other day. I can't bike every day because I broke my tailbone 5 years ago and it only hurts when I sit for extended periods of time. Poopy. I haaaaaaaaaate running so much. I…
  • Oh man, I'm not from New Zealand, and I'm sure you get this all the time buuuuut.... OhMyGoshYouGuysHaveTheBestAccents!!! Also, Flight of the Conchords. Also, wetas scare the poop out of me. Have you ever seen one? Are they really that big and scary? :O
  • Oh damn, I thought I was bad eating half a bag of tortilla chips in one sitting. Even while I was binging I still had the slightest amount of control...mostly because I can't physically eat a whole thing of cookies or chips or ice cream in one sitting or I'll throw up. I can't really remember what I ate on my worst binge,…
  • rsrsrs I know! Some people say music is distracting to them, but I really need just one thing that I can focus on, otherwise I cannot stay in one spot for more than 5 minutes and I have to keep walking around and switching things up.
  • I almost always have music, unless I'm rowing because I have nowhere to put my phone. Otherwise, I need something, or I'll get distracted.
  • First things first, is your scale on a flat, hard surface (e.g., not on carpet)? That can really mess up a scale. If it's already not on carpet, if it's fluctuating super a lot, then it might be time to get a new scale =/
  • You could eat a doughnut a day if you really wanted to, as long as the rest of your meals give you a balanced diet and you're within your calorie range. I've said it before, and I'll say it again, a calorie is a calorie is a calorie. It doesn't matter where they come from, as long as you're getting however many you need…
  • 190 or somewhere around there
  • Even if you don't speak French, hopefully this song brings a smile to your face: http://youtu.be/SXkL5SCm5uo Tomber la chemise ("take off your shirt") by Zebda :)
  • No, I don't see other people as fat. Only myself and really really morbidly obese people. I weigh 114 pounds, but even when I see someone who weighs around 140 pounds and is my height, I still think she's thinner than me. I still look in the mirror every single day and see someone who is 90 pounds heavier.
  • I....don't think there was anything about his gift that implied you should eat it in one day....take your time eating it. For something romantic, share it with him. If he doesn't want to share it, tell him you appreciate his gift, but you can't possibly eat all that without gaining weight and ask nicely if he'd mind…
  • A calorie is a calorie is a calorie. It doesn't matter if it's from sugar, fat, or protein. To your body, it's all energy. Thus, you could technically eat all your calories from carbs or from protein or from fat and as long as you're under your calorie goal, you'd lose weight. A note before people start ripping me apart on…
  • Music works well. If you need visual stimulation, some treadmills allow you to watch tv shows or movies while you're on them. If yours doesn't, is there a tv nearby you could watch while running?
  • Bon Iver <3
  • Eww why is Guinness more sophisticated? Guinness is nasty! Drink microbrews! Support your local breweries!
  • Cachaçaaaa mmmmm amooo as caipirinhas :D National drink of brasil. It's like a mojito, but with no mint and cachaça instead of white rum. Muito bem!
  • Eat fishies! Salmon has 45 mg cholesterol/serving, tuna has 25 mg, sole has 86.4 mg, octopus, while it's not a fish, has 82 mg, eel has around 60 mg, swordfish has 43 mg, mahi mahi has 94, and crab has 65 :) Plus, fishies have omega-3 and omega-6 UFAs, which are essential fatty acids.
  • I have a friend who used it, but I don't think she does anymore...
