Who says plus size girls don't have curves?
Someone recently told me that overweight girls just like to say that they are curvy to feel better about themselves. Psh! I say! If you have an indent in your waist, then you are curvy! So this is a thread to post all of our lovely curves! This was taken yesterday. All 288 pounds of me! I have a long ways to go, but I…

Tuna every day?
I love tuna, avocado, and a hard boiled egg for lunch. I can literally eat this every day, but I can't find solid info on if it's ok or not. Some articles say yes and some say no. Some say there is a max mercury level your body will hold and expel the rest anyway. I'm so sick of chicken. lol

Please stop telling me muscle weighs more than fat...
I know muscle is more dense, but a pound is a pound. So I'm whining about how my scale isn't moving, but I'm losing inches consistently. This is great! I'm taking up less space! lol but it's still nice to see the scale go down with it. Instead it's been hovering around the same 5lbs in the last 10 weeks. Logically I know…

Scale is up 9lbs in a week!
I have an IUD so I don't get real periods. I'll have spotting sometimes, but I still get the bloating and cramps and all the fun stuff. Guess whose scale is UP 9lbs this morning? EFF YOU SCALE!!!!! *cries into imaginary chocolate* I have a weigh in tomorrow and my scale is being disrespectful! 1. I know I didn't eat in…

It's been one month since I've binged/purged.
I was diagnosed with binge eating disorder in 2015 and with CBT (Cognitive-behavioral therapy) I'm in a better place. I didn't actually start purging until the beginning of this year and it wasn't consistent. When we think of eating disorders, we think of people who don't eat and are rail thin. It was hard finding a doctor…

Jamie Eason's 12 week Transformation Plan Phase 1 Questions
Has anyone started/completed this? http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/jamie-easons-livefit-phase-1.html I have a question about cardio. In phase 1 she says there is no cardio because skipping it will ensure my body is adding muscle. I know from many many many articles and threads on MFP, that new muscle growth isn't easy.…

Need to lose 100+ pounds to join the ONEderland club!
Hello. My name is Adia (uh-dee-yah) and I'm a 33 not so recently single mom. I gained all of my weight after pregnancy and after "the divorce". After gaining 50lbs, I signed up with a personal trainer. I followed his nutrition plan, did cardio 6 days a week, strength training 3 days a week, cut out soda for 6 months and…

Gamer/Nerd/Friends
I'll start by saying I'm replaying the Dragon Age trilogy right now as a human rogue. ^_^ I just basically deleted my entire friends list. I'm looking for more friends I can relate to. I can't relate to going out on the weekends or getting excited about new shoes. I want my newsfeed to be like "Got Tom Clancy's The…

Sugar withdraws
Why is quitting sugar so hard!? I used to do cocaine (been clean 9 years this April) and quitting that cold turkey was easier than quitting sugar! I haven't had a Mt. Dew since the summer. For some reason I just grabbed one from the grocery store last night and had a few sips before dumping it down the drain. It tasted…

Mass effect 3 ****Spoilers!!**** Seriously!
So...I see why there was an Extended Cut DLC for the ending. I read about the crappy ending before I beat the game so I downloaded the DLC. Did it work the first time? NO! I didn't know you had to beat the game and then start from the "legend save" and replay the whole effing attack on Cerebus again. The Extended Cut did…

Immature gamers

almost 30 pounds gone, but don't feel a difference.
Obviously there is a difference. I can see it in my photos....sorta. I haven't gone down a dress size. I haven't gone down an underwear size. I haven't gone down a cup size. In fact, my boobs feel BIGGER! Then I read people who have lost 10 pounds and gone down 4 dress sizes and I'm like what? Okay, I'm not trying to be an…

Looking for motivational POSITIVE friends!
(Even though the last photo looks bigger than the third to the last, I've actually lost 5 pounds and 2 inches off my waist between the two.) I am currently in the process of revamping my friends list and I hope you will be on it! A little about myself. I'm a 30 year old single mother that started at 315 pounds (the far…

What do you think about your job watching your FB comments?
We just had a meeting this morning and apparently a few people who are passionate about politics have our company listed publicly. So a few cry babies emailed screen shots to our employer and asked how could we employ such nasty people. So at the meeting we were told we have to sign a "social media and usage" waiver…

You Are Your Own Gym (YAYOG) alternative moves
I've looked on the forums and internet and I'm trying to find different moves than the ones on the apps. Like the Let Me In's. I don't have strong enough doors and my door knobs are funky so wrapping a towel around it and hanging off of it will probably result in a broken door and an ER copay. I found on the internet that…

Having an affair with measuring tape and HRM
I knew for the longest time that MFP was over estimating calorie burns but I just figured maybe 300 at max! I never ate all my exercise calories back, but I was still eating them back with no idea how much I really burned. I kept trusting MFP at the end of every day saying that I would be X in 5 weeks if I kept it up. 5…

Final Fantasy 13-2 Ending. ** NO SPOILERS**
Just frustration!!!!!!! I finally beat the game because I needed to to get some other after game achievements. (I'm a Xbox achievement *kitten*) So the ending was just.....UGH! I hate you Square Enix! Anyway, I will say that I was pretty impressed with myself doing the 100% bestiary quest. I thought I would have to run…

Lost my first set of 10!
I have 100 pounds to lose and instead of focusing on that huge number, I broke my goal down into 10 sets of 10 pounds. That sounds WAY more doable than 100 lbs (at least to me!) So here is before and after. Dec. 21st to Jan 20th. 10 pounds down and 2 inches off my waist. I know it's not much, but I'm excited! Happy Friday…

How vegan are you?
http://m.guardiannews.com/commentisfree/2013/jan/16/vegans-stomach-unpalatable-tr. uth-quinoa Does eating healthier and cruel free justify poverty? It makes me wonder how many other health foods are related to something like this. Is it better to just eat an egg or is it ok to create poverty for the sake of the animals?…

Trouble eating over 2000 calories
MFP has me at 2250 a day to lose 1 pound a week. It is difficult to eat 2200+ calories of clean food a day. Ever since working out at the gym I seem to just not even be hungry. I'm eating things like avocados, almonds, hummus, etc. and I seem to be bloated by 1700-1800! I'm concerned because I'm barely NETTING 1200 on work…

MFP, Machine, or HRM... Which is right!?
So according to the elliptical at the gym (which allows me to put in my weight and height) says I burn 500 calories in 50 minutes. MFP says over 1000 in that time. I don't have a HRM, but the metal one on the machine says I stay between 164-180 for my workouts.(Depending on the song on my playlist) So when I put that info…
