Thanksgiving and Christmas, generally, for land animals. I'll have fish more often...generally when I'm feeling ill and need a boost. Still haven't gotten the handle of an entirely vegetarian diet lol.

Here we go; On a roadtrip! He took me to the VT teddy bear factory. This is a hideous photo but the only one I have on this computer of us together haha.

I figure a kid will not just barge into a bathroom or bedroom where their parents are nude if they're beginning to shy up. (Most likely related to awareness of human sexuality). So, whatever that age may be, I imagine.

Heaven forbid a woman feeds her child in a safe, entirely natural, healthy way. So sorry that seeing a breast used for its biological purpose unnerves you so.

Censor nudity/sex in a trusting/natural/safe environment, it doesn't leave room for children to grow up knowing that they don't have to look like the ads (as human bodies pretty much don't look like that), that boobs, butts, nips, genitals are in all sorts of shapes and sizes and everyone has them and they don't need to be…

"You looked better when you were heavy/i like women with curves/etcetc" or "where did your boobs/butt go"? I realize they're not when I was at my heaviest, but after substantial weight loss, but the comments are infuriating none-the-less. I hate the assumption that my body is open to commentary by anyone, and that weight…

Thank you! :D I got more into logging by having the app on the ipod, it really helps when I'm on the go. (Which is like. All the time.)

I can just imagine feeling ill if I drank too much water! But, having a glass of water should help a bit. I reach for the healthier options first--at our table, that would most likely be steamed veggies, followed by some form of protein and then mashed potatoes. Small portions at first, with a glass of water. If still…

It's all marketing so the people behind the scheme can make money, and it works. (The making money part, not the diet.) A lot of people fall for it because they want an easy way out. A way to be lazy and not do the research for food and not get active. The "magic pill", so to speak.

Are we talking about places like Facebook or places like here? I don't think I can fault someone if they work hard for their body to want to display it, particularly on sites that are for fitness or attracting a partner. (This place or dating sites, for example.) It's awful silly to have it just be the torso and no face…

I can't really say how long it takes to fully adjust (when I was in a good habit of consumption, it took about 5 days to return to a normal bathroom schedule!), but it will eventually! A friend of mine said it did take a month, she was glad she did that over summer as opposed to during the semester. :9 You may also be…

You can have ice-cream after a work-out! (: Greek yogurt in a blender with fruits or protein powder (chocolate protein powder = chocolate 'ice cream!'), toss in the freezer for about an hour. Makes a serving, it's high in protein and calcium and low in sugars. A dollop of whipped cream and you get nearly the same effect.…

I'm with Cris--you may want to see a counselor. I can understand concern, and maybe a fleeting thought about the well-being of the person(s) in question, but it's not healthy for you to dwell on it long enough to have an actual reaction to it. "I also hated myself for thinking the thoughts I had. What right do I have to…

If you're feeling thirsty, you have "desire" to drink water. That's your body calling for help--even if you don't want to listen. I rarely drank water, and I'm still making my way to the recommended amount per day. What I found has helped me up fluid intake; 1) Keeping a mini note-book. Kind of like a food journal…

It can have an odd aftertaste (reminds me of licorice), and it's easy to use to much. (It's sweeter than sugar, by far!) But, it's my personal go-to if I just want a little bit of something in my tea and have no honey or something on hand. My understanding is that it hasn't be 'officially tested', which is why it's not…

^^ Agreed with the Lindt, both are my favorites. The Endangered Species ones are good as well.

Dark chocolate. & not Hershey's, which is barely even "dark", but like...Lindt. A bit more expensive, but I don't eat much and it tastes better. Don't know if I can call it a "guilty" pleasure, though! I feel no guilt eating it.

I avoid all of the restaurants save for Subway, honestly. I tried for salads at Wendy's or the yogurt and walnut and apple snack thing at McD's...the salad was covered in cheese (ew) with cruddy lettuce so it got taken off my list, and the snack from McDs...the yogurt was so liquid-y it was like milk, and the walnuts were…

I work in a deli/bakery so it's year-round that I have the option to munch on extras (which foiled efforts earlier in the journey). I've had to turn down fresh-baked donuts, leftover pies, hot soups, fried dough (actually, I had a bite, but not an entire piece), chocolates, oatmeal/sugar/chocolatechip/m&m cookies, fresh…

No way. Part of the journey has been seeing the progress---nothing has felt as good as measuring to see inches and lbs gone, discovering I can run farther and faster, and the triumph I feel when I can finally add more weight to the bar when lifting. I wouldn't want to miss those feelings. Besides, I'd miss a lot of…
