photo food journal on tumblr
Has anyone thought about doing a photo food/exercise journal on tumblr? I just started one, and I honestly find it more effective than MFP. But the support here is so awesome, so I'm looking for weight loss/fitness related tumblrs to follow. If you want to follow mine, it documents my food, exercise, and whiny-ness about…

Does this email sound okay?
It isn't directly related to weight loss, but my boyfriend and I have been fighting some. This has been stressing me out and further destroying my appetite. (I am proud, though, that I am no longer an emotional eater). Anyway, if you could read this email that I sent to him and give me some feedback, that would be awesome.…

Everyone should see this, it's only twelve minutes
http://www.uctv.tv/shows/The-Skinny-on-Obesity-Ep-2-Sickeningly-Sweet-23591 This is a link to a university of California video that is very informative. I'd also suggest watching the other six (very short) episodes. It discusses sugar and how fructose, from sucrose and from things likes high fructose corn syrup, acts just…

This is how I have lost 21 pounds
I made this second person for some reason. I am not trying to tell you what to do, and I am not trying to sell anything. I just wish someone would have explained this to me long ago.

NSV
I just realized what nsv stands for. (Non-scale victory for anyone who doesn't know). This is my biggest one: after I gained weight, I noticed that I have really, really bad cellulite issues on my butt and thighs. Anyway, one day (about twenty or so pounds lighter) I realized that I had manage to get rid of it. I didn't…

I know there is no "miracle pill" but has anyone tried something that actually helped with appetite suppression or energy levels?

Rewards for reaching weight loss goals
Hi, I was just wondering what others do to rewards themselves for weight loss. I know that just weighing less and being happy is a reward in and of itself, but I really like to have things to remind me that I reached a goal and will never gain that weight back. For example, when I reached my first goal, 138, I gave myself…

Being grateful for food
This is meant to reflect on how lucky we are to have food, and I also hope that we can reevaluate our relationship with it. I'll start. I live in the United States, and I have never gone without food. Never in my life have I been so hungry that I could cry, or so hungry that I would eat my cat or garbage or another person…

Angry vegan
I just bought this soy protein powder because I wanted to supplement my diet with it, and I (of course) read the ingredients before buying it: Soy Protein Isolate, Fructose, Natural & Artificial Flavors, and Soy Lecithin. So I think, "okay, it's vegan, that's great!" just as I break the seal, rendering it nonreturnable, I…
