I hate this job.
Ugh, can I just rant for a minute? Seriously if I have to hear one more person ask for a refund or date change i'm going to shoot my eye out. Today was absolutely awful and i'm so sick of this job. It's the summer and i'm supposed to be enjoying myself. I have NO idea why I agreed to this and I regret my decision 100%.…

I think that i'm enjoying
this much more than how I usually eat. For Ramadan, instead of eating scattered small meals, I eat two very large meals at about 16 hours apart. This way, i'm rarely feeling hungry or even thirsty. I get to eat as much as I want and i'm usually full before I even get to my calorie goal. I wait a couple of hours and eat…

If I eat more than 1000 calories
I find myself gaining weight, HOW is this possible? It's extremely frustrating as well. Okay, so the past month or so i've been eating about 900-1000 calories per day (my diary is open) simply because I just don't get hungry. I don't exercise much so I don't really feel the need to eat a lot, plus I eat filling foods that…

Nutrition goals.
What percent do you guys gave yours set to?

Too old to ride a bike?
I owned a bike with training wheels when I was about nine years old. Lost the bike. Stopped riding completely. My brother owns a bike and constantly mocks me for not knowing how to ride one. I WANT to learn because I personally think it's a really great exercise that I wouldn't get sick of. I'm 21 years old...can I teach…

It's 1:30.
And i'm about to pull my hair out. This is a typical 9 to 5 job that leaves me with a migraine everyday. My god! If you're comfortable, share your career/current job, how much you enjoy it[detest it] and even funny stories if you have 'em!

Yesterday
I was on my treadmill for about 45 minutes. After about half an hour my face started to get numb. I was wearing a headband, sweatpants and a t-shirt. Does this happen to anyone else...? :huh:

accuracy of exercise machines.
Okay, so I have a Confidence Treadmill and the amount of calories I burn seems ridiculously low to me. I spent 15 minutes on level 7, then I went down to 6.5 for another 10 minutes. Then I went down to level 5 for 10 minutes. Then I walked (level 3.5) for 10 minutes. I burned about 125 calories. According to MFP I…

Was about to make a post
then the delivery guy barges into the office (it's been really quite so I was fairly relaxed and unfocused) and I jumped in my seat because he scared the living cr*p out of me and I completely forgot what I was going to post. It was clever too :sad: My heart is still racing. .... Just thought i'd share.

I bought a new shirt for myself
and ordered it in adult small. I usually wear a large, and I bought it with the intention of keeping it as motivation. It's a shirt i've wanted for quite a while but always thought "I'll buy it when i lose weight, it won't look as good if I buy it now." I'm buying it and hanging it up on the back of my door. Ugh, I can not…

I can't believe I managed
to stay under my calorie goal today. I ate SO much at the market today (okay, well not A LOT but a lot of unhealthy crap.) I'm fairly proud of myself for not indulging. This place was cram packed with sweets. Literally. Everything you can imagine, they had (Including but not limited to: Tiramisu, cookies, cupcakes,…

Biscuit Spread
I went to Chelsea Food Market today and bought this biscuit spread: http://neuheiten.koelnmesse.net/020/2012/us/products/view/product_id:6228/cat:8415 and http://www.annafaggio.com/ (Our range > Retail > Biscuit Spreads > Cafe Crisp Biscuit Spread Crunchy) The back of the jar says it's 84 kcal (it's from Belgium) and I…

Losing weight but not inches?!
How is this possible? I started tracking my inches two weeks ago, and I measured today and they aren't any different. I'm sure i'm measuring in the same places, and even my clothes are looser than they used to be.
-
Everyone is always so eager
to make a comment when I gain weight. I mean it's always "Wow, what happened? You're still so young, you shouldn't be letting yourself go like this..." or the more subtle "You've changed so much in just one year." and it's always accompanied by that calculating. The one you KNOW means people are just surprised because,…

Need to be 179 by July 20th.
My current weight is 182, and I started at 200 about a month and three weeks ago. I set my goal to losing two pounds per week. According to this I should be 180 by the twentieth. My initial weight before gaining all of this weight was 176, and I know that if I get below that my motivation will sky rocket because I'll feel…

I ordered a USB
and made the mistake of not noting where it's shipping from (mind you, I was in a rush when ordering AND wanted this USB as soon as possible, so I ordered the first one that had a good rating on Amazon). Turns out, it's shipping form Hong Kong and isn't due to arrive until mid-august :explode: AND to top it off, the "track…

Jeans never fit properly
If I buy size 13/14 jeans the waist is incredibly loose while the hips/calves area are always way too tight. If I buy size 12 jeans the waist seems fitting if I hold it against my body, but if I even attempt to put it on it will NOT get past my hips. I've had to resort to buying khaki's only :grumble: Two questions: 1.…

I need a display picture.
I feel insignificant without a face. I'm conflicted.

40 minutes.
I might die before then. ARG. I hate this job so very much. Don't you guys just love my complaining about this job. How do you pass time?

I'm laaaaazzzyyy.
I'm always feeling lethargic and exhausted (because of work) so I tend to skip out on the exercising I KNOW I should be doing. I mean, I walk about two or three times a week for an hour or more, but that's something I don't really consider hardcore working out, so I don't bother tracking it. Thus far, i've been…

Two hours left!
Will you guys amuse me until my shift ends?

Good thing i'm not home.
I'm STARVING but I don't actually have access to food so I can't eat even if I wanted to :( How do you keep yourself from succumbing to binges?

I'm kind of a music snob.

At the Disco - Of Monsters and Men - Jukebox the Ghost - The Temper Trap - Pink Floyd - My Chemical Romance - AC/DC - Led Zeppelin - Brand New - Ok Go - Vampire Weekend - Bon Iver - fun. - The Young Veins -…

Whenever I get discouraged
I always think to myself, "Well, how GOOD would it feel to be able to go into a store and rummage for a size small?" or "Imagine being able to actually complete more than 10 push ups or 1 mile during weekly exercises." Now that I think about it, i'm really excited for all of that. But I have a long, long way to go.…

Weird..
that cursing is against the rules for a website meant for 18+ adults, haha. Am I the only one who thinks this? (unless cursing isn't actually against the rules and you've all made some silent mutual agreement to not curse or use the alterntive "****")

It's sort of odd.
What makes being superficial a bad thing? Why is such a horrid crime to choose someone because they're gorgeous as opposed to choosing someone because they have a great mind? I understand society standards, and I understand that it's considered shallow. But why? What makes it perfectly acceptable to like someone because…

You guys argue a lot.
For people who are supposedly meant to support one another through these forums, there sure is a lot of pointless arguments over nonsense. I suppose you'll probably find that anywhere where the human species happens to interact, but holy crap, there are some things seriously best left alone. Note: For the sole purpose of…

I ate an entire box of Junior Mints
and i'm still under my calorie count but i'm starving so i'm currently scouring my kitchen for something low in carbs. I should just not be left alone with anything peppermint. Weaknesses?

Music.
Music is a huge part of my life and one of the main things that has the ability to motivate me. I'm surprised I haven't seen more posts about this. Favorite artists? Favorite songs? Best workout music? Let's compare, i'm always on the lookout for new music to listen to!

I feel a bit silly...
posting this, but I just want to be on the safe side. For the past month and a half i've been shedding weight fairly quickly, two pounds (even a bit more) just like MFP claimed. My weight would slightly fluctuate throughout the week, but in the end of the week, during my weigh in, I would be at my goal weight. This past…
