Opinion-Big hips with small(ish) waist-attractive or not?
Lately I've noticed that while my waist has gotten quite a bit smaller after losing weight, my hips are still big (in my opinion, although they seem to have more definition now). I'm really not trying to start body shaming anyone, I'm just honestly curious as to whether people find that look attractive.

NSV!!!
I went to put on a dress today that I haven't worn in at least a few months, and it was too big! Like, to the point where I would have looked silly wearing it! Needless to say that made my day.

Show me your tattoos!
My profile pic is of my oldest tat (right after I had it touched up recently). I didn't know how to post a larger version of the pic to the forum. Show me your ink everyone, I wanna see it all!

Help! No $ to buy new clothes!
Lately my work clothes have been getting too big for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm definitely not complaining about that. It is to the point, though, where the clothes are starting to look kinda silly on me. The bad part is that right now I have no $ to go out and buy smaller sizes. Besides that, I don't know how much I want…

Anyone else obsessed with Shamrock Shakes?
I wait for them all year, although I'm only allowing myself two this season. I'm proud of myself, I had a small one today with no whipped cream and I managed to stay under my calories! :)

Alcohol
I've just recently started to become honest with myself in that I believe I use alcohol to cope with my anxiety. This is a difficult thing for me to admit, it feels like just one more area of my life that I'm starting to loose control over. Am I the only one here? I read somewhere that 25% of anxiety sufferers will use…

NSV!
My husband and I are friends with a couple who have a halloween party every year with a lot (and I mean a lot of food), and every year I overeat Big Time when we're there. Well, they had their party last night, and I swear I maybe ate 50-75% of what I normally would. The food just didn't look as good to me. I feel like…

Favorite breakfast cereal?
Mine is Cheerios, but I went through a phase where I ate a lot of Corn Chex, too.

What would you do ...
... if you suspected that one of your MFP friends has an ED? Would you say something? Say nothing? PM them? Unfriend them? It's looking like I may be in this position, and I'm not sure what to do. I'm not generally the type to get up in other people's business. I just don't know what the right thing to do is.

Anyone ever gone gluten free?
I don't have a gluten allergy, but a couple people have told me recently that I should cut down on/give up gluten for my health. Thoughts? For those who gave it up, how difficult was it? What do you eat?

Favorite biking/walking paths?
What are some of your favorites? I used to take a lot of walks by Lake Monona near John Nolen, but I'm looking for a little variety. I live on the East side, but am open to suggestions.

Who has pets?
We have a gigantic (20 pound) cat, who is a big spoiled baby. We love her to pieces though. As a pet owner and animal lover, I'm curious about other MFP users' animal friends.

My wine drinking friends ...
What's your fave? There's a local winery here in WI that makes an awesome white wine called Prairie Fume. It's kinda sweet and really smooth.

What are you most proud of (foodwise) in the past week?
Me, I'm proud of the fact that I turned down my husband's offer to pick me up a turtle sundae on his way home tonight and asked him to get me a diet root beer float instead. Sure, I still had ice cream, but it wasn't nearly as bad. Little victories will lead to bigger victories (and better choices). At least that's what I…
