Please tell me if my math is right
So I've lost 6.4 lbs in 5 weeks. That means I'm losing 1.28lbs/week. 1.28lbs x 3,500cals = 4,480 4,480 ÷ 7 days a week = 640 So I add 640 to my average calories I've been eating the last 5 weeks and that is my tdee?

BS Excuses
I mean, Barely Sensible Excuses. So I'm at the gym, about to do my regular yoga class. This lady comes out of another class to tell our instructor that she can't stay for the yoga class because of her dog. (This is the fourth time I've heard the same woman tell the same story, to the same teacher) it's an old story by now.…

I'm "fat skinny"
Seriously. It's, like, a, thing. It's either that I'm a "fat" size, but mostly muscle, OR it's that I'm actually skinny, but tell myself that I'm fat. I haven decided, really.

I've made a horrible mistake
So I've been trying lots of new snacks, with it being January the month of all things "diet", I've found many things I've never tried before, at prices that can't be missed. So without planning ahead, I've eaten 3 Fiber One lemon brownies, and washed them down with a Bai5 that had EIGHT grams of erythritol. Which google…

Now she spent $50 on diet pills.…

I love my body
Seriously. It's kind of awesome. My legs go all the way to the floor, and they even have feet attached for walking! My organs work to keep me alive! 30+ years and counting, and they are still going strong! No matter what happens to my skin, it just covers over it, and keeps on going! I have eyes that see, ears to hear, and…

How much has losing weight cost you?
Just wondering how much others are spending on losing weight? Different foods? Eating out less often? New clothes/shoes? Pro/anti gym? How much have you spent on membership? For me, this happened at a time that I had to start eating out less, and had to lose weight because my clothes were too tight, and I couldn't afford…

Anyone else not a fan of chocolate?
I mean sure, if its there, I'll eat it. But I never have craved it. And given the choice, I'd much rather have baked goods.

Not happy even after reaching my goal
I originally wanted to lose some weight that I gained after my baby was born, so my clothes would fit again, and I wouldn't have to buy a second new wardrobe in the same year. I set a lofty (read: unrealistic) goal for myself, so that I wouldn't quit after losing 5 lbs. My goal was 23lbs, which would put me at the lowest…
