Best Compliment
I'm in a rare happy mood today. I've been remembering awesome compliments I've received from people. And I thought I'd start a thread about it. (I found one in search about best compliment from your SO, but I wanted to expand it to anyone.) My best compliment ever... I was visiting my mom in England for Christmas (my…

Am I drinking enough...
So MFP recommends I get 8 cups of water a day, but I'm all out of water. Can I drink vodka instead? Is it possible to drink too much vodka? Or should I only drink it when I'm thirsty?

Daiquiri Ice
OK, this is my FAVORITE flavor at Baskin Robbins. I've loved this flavor since I was a little kid. But BR is annoying...it doesn't always have this flavor. Usually only one month out of the year will it have this flavor. Last weekend was a cheat day. They had it, and I got some. I went a little overboard and got a packed…

She's gotten BIG!
You know how people say this about kids they haven't seen in a while? How much they've grown. Look how big you are! My mother-in-law says this about our dog, each and every time she comes over. This is not often; we see them once or twice a year. But every time, she says how big my dog has gotten. Umm, my dog is 14. She's…

Frustrated with women's clothing sizes
I've always had a tough time with women's clothing. I'm a size smaller on top than bottom, so dresses, matching suit sets, and one-piece bathing suits are tough for me. I just opt for separates to make it easier. I was shopping the other day with a friend who's a bit bigger than I, so we were in the Women's section. I…

Weight Loss Rewards
I'm all about rewarding myself for a job well done. It's gotta be non-food related. It's gotta be something I really want but wouldn't ordinarily buy for myself. I'm so close to getting my next reward. 199! But the item I had planned has sold out. I have no idea when it'll be back in stock. I'm about 4 pounds away so I…

Burlesque
I'm going to be taking a beginner burlesque class at a festival in June. My friends who are going with me are experienced belly dancers and all have their own dance nickname. This sign up sheet asks for mine. I don't have one. I know y'all don't know me from adam, but I need ideas for a nickname. I don't really want to…

How much is a "stone"?
I know I could just google it, but I thought it would be more fun to start a thread. I haven't a clue how much a stone is, when it comes to body weight. Neither can I relate to a kg. I just have no mental association with how much that actually is. And don't even get me started when someone talks about their height in cm.…

Work ID Picture
So I took a look at my badge from work with my picture on it. It was taken last June, at my heaviest weight, right before I started trying to lose. OMG! I can totally see a difference to what my face looks like now. Then, my face was so round and just huge, imo. Now it's more oval and normal. I've always been a chubby…

NSV
This is probably silly, but I'm going to post it anyway. Last summer, I was at my highest weight. I went on a scrapbooking retreat with friends right when I started trying to lose. They had these little door prizes, and the one I won was a T-shirt. It was an XL. It was super tight around my hips so I really only wore it…
