5'2" Gals!
Of all shapes and sizes, what's your jean size at your various weights (if you remember) or just current weight and jean size. I'm curious of whether my weight/size now meets where you girls have been and/or where you are now. :) I'm currently about 180, and although my hips alone would probably be a size 12 at the moment,…

Calories in Razzles
This is silly but... The back of the packet says 2 pieces is 15 calories, now since this is a "candy" that turns into gum, is that including if you swallow it? I don't swallow gum, so I was wondering if there could really be 7 calories in sugar by just chewing it for a minute (since they lose flavor quickly!) Thanks! XD

Overhanging belly fat? A name for that!
Apparently, It's called a panniculus. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panniculus Who knew that? And who's here to get rid of it? I am! Let us unite against the evil panniculus! Trojan war at dawn? Anyone?

ACCOUNTABILITY and MFP updates!
Anyone else glad that MFP doesn't update your profile with things like, "John_Doe just consumed 800 calories for dinner, making that X calories over/under his goal!" I sure am. Although, I'm sure it'd make me think a *little* harder before I picked up that extra slice of pizza! XD So, yeah. MFP, do not do this. XD

Logging Exercise Comic!
I know I posted this to my profile... but I had to share it further. XD http://xkcd.com/940/ Don't forget to hover over the comic for extra commentary! (Also, there's no nudity... but it's not super-appropriate... so you probably shouldn't show your kids...BUT it IS hilarious, and relevant to MFP!) So, anyone ever felt…

Why are there never cute "fat clothes"?!
I realize that none of us ever actually wanted to be overweight... but like, why do we not only have to *feel* like we look like crap, but then also get stuck with clothes that just AREN'T HELPING? It's kind of degrading and makes shopping painful, especially when, I know, for me, I'm an overly sensitive person anyway.

Suddenly losing weight too fast?
Okay, so I've been dieting/ changing my life for the past two to three months (and only lost about 9 pounds in that time). For a while it was nonchalant, and then within the last couple weeks, I've become more serious about it. Anyway, this week, I just don't have an appetite. I've been struggling to meet 1200 calories-- I…

NSV WARNING!
Honestly, this is a hilarious story... so, do read on! Right now, I'm living with my boyfriend's family in London, and today, the three of us, my BF, his mum, and his nanny, went over to the cemetery to tend to the trees where the family's ashes are buried. Well, I was sort of awkwardly standing there, because I wasn't…

Favorite exercise songs?
I don't know about you guys, but I know that I tend to relate to the music as I'm exercising. I tending to go for songs that remind me of who I was. It pushes me into gear to be who I WANT to be. For instance, this excerpt from "Lover Dearest" by Mariana's Trench: I'll just hide it, or I could slip into you, It's so easy…

The Benefits of Friends
Hey, everyone! I've been on here a couple weeks, but hadn't really added any friends. I thought it'd be embarrassing... but then, lately, I've been slacking a bit. Not enough to gain anything, but enough that I'm not losing any more either. So, if you'd like to be friends, just add me. Together, we can change our lives. :D
