I don't need a weight loss buddy, but I need a self control/maintenance buddy. If you have troubles with too much dessert/ junk food, contact me. Maybe we can help each other out with having healthier lifestyles. |

I have certain, erm, portion problems with plenty of desserts. But weirdly enough, its the chocolate covered graham crackers that truly get me. Particularly the homemade ones I make. Its a combination of melted chocolate and peanut butter poured over graham crackers, with a white chocolate swirl. I can't make these very often....it's not pretty. Chocolate filled wafer sticks are pretty bad too. |

Hmm. So the liquid tends to evaporate? Would I be better of drinking a glass of milk on the side to get all the nutrients, or will the milk just be absorbed by the oats? |

Nope, I got the oatmeal in bulk. So no instructions on the container. All right. I'll try a few different ways. Thanks! |

Worms. I'm serious. Everyone always laughs. But I will literally jump when I see one lying in the rain. And, I'm not exactly a wimp, but I kind of am...? If there's a dark and scary place near me to explore or something, I'll go. I like the dark, ominous places, etc.. But I get scared very easily. Weird, huh? I'm a good target for people to scare, because I get scared so easily. |

Yes. I agree. They really aren't that good for you. But man, the peanut butter and oats is so tasty! I think if you wanted some sweet/dessert food, this would be a better option then say, a doughnut. But I don't think its very good for everyday snacking. I too would rather have the strawberries and a couple of squares of good quality dark chocolate. |

| The Lounge | Can fat people be considered healthy? | Sep 02 2009 18:50 (UTC) |

Original Post by jannid: Yes, thats why I said it comes down to the individual. I never once said in my post that all overweight people are unhealthy. But are you saying that a large amount of overweight people are overweight because of some medical condtion? I don't know about that. I think most people become overweight/unhealthy because of overeating, emotional eating, or whatever. And of course not all of them are unhealthy, and of course some of them are trying to do something about it. The people on this website are a prime example. I don't know the reason the overweight people I see are overweight, or underweight people are underweight. But yeah, people make assumptions sometimes. I'm guilty occasionally as well. And I'll say it one more time. I don't think that all overweight people are unhealthy. I really don't know anything about people I just see on the street. It just comes down to the individual. |

Obviously not all overweight people are unhealthy. But most are. I doubt most of the overweight people you see on a daily basis are about eating healthy, exercising, etc. I think most people who care about their bodies, by eating healthy and exercise, aren't overweight, because most of the time, a healthy weight comes with that sort of lifestyle. And plus, if someone is technically overweight, but its because of muscle, I wouldn't consider that unhealthy. But if there's two people, one in the overweight range, and one in a normal range, and they both exercise the same, eat about the same number of calories, well, which one would you consider healthier? I would think the person in the normal range is probably the healthier one. But then again, thats probably not a very good asumption. But still, being overweight can give you potential health problems. It really just comes down to the individual. |

| Foods | Changes in grocery shopping | Sep 01 2009 17:48 (UTC) |

My mom does the shopping, but I like to go with her and help. And since I've made it my goal to become healthier, my whole family has become healthier. No more cookies, chips, bulk desserts (except croissants occassionally) If I want cookies, I bake some. Same goes for other desserts. Tastes better, and you appreciate it more. We never did buy soda, and still, we just buy cranberry juice for my dad. No ramen noodles. I like them, but I just can't bring myself to eat them, with all that sodium! Bigger variety of vegetables. All natural peanut butter. |

I'm polish. Full polish. So I hear the same stereotypes. But none of them really apply to me. However, I'm guilty of saying lots of stupid jokes. Ha, my friends love the fact that I'm polish though. Oh, and there's the stereotype that we curse a lot. In my case its kind of true. I curse in polish though, so it doesn't matter since no one can understand me. |

Its your wedding. You wear what you want! Don't care about what others think. Anyways, think about it. Have you ever actually looked at a bride and thought "Oh, what a hideous dress". Usually, people tend to think "Oh, she looks so beautiful!" And the first one is a very gorgous dress. |

I think they forgot deep fried ice cream. Honestly, why do they feel the need to deep fry everything? And why do people need to eat it? I can barely look at some of that stuff. |

Its funny, lots of people say breakfast should be your biggest meal of the day, but that doesn't work for me. I start with a big breakfast, I worry the rest of the day. You just have to be careful to eat lighter in the morning. |
