| i just checked and it is white with red, but in the little warning thing at the bottom it says "cook thoroughly". and the sushi recipe asks for "cooked snow crab meat". but if it's imitation...oh i don't know. thanks though! | |||

| it gives two recipes but for something else, not just cooking crabmeat. and there aren't any sushi restaurants or oriental markets nearby :( . I'm assuming a big market chain or something can have it but im not sure where to look | |||

| The Lounge | What does YOUR username mean? | Jul 08 2008 14:54 (UTC) |
55 |
| mine is from final fantasy x-2. the three main characters use their initials for their group name YRP (Yuna, Rikku, Paine). two of my friends and I really loved this game a few years ago when it came out and each of us have a personality similary to the characters, so we kind of pretended to be YRP (yea i know, it's ridiculous). since i kind of have a personality similary to Paine's, my aol screen name has her name (my friends did the same thing with their characters). i accidently added and kept the 1 on my aol screen name. i don't like the game very much anymore so i kind of want to change it but im too lazy to do so and i just use that user name for everything. :D | |||
| Foods | Is sugar making me fat? | Mar 31 2008 23:42 (UTC) |

| I was just about to start a topic on sugar, but i guess i'll add my question here. so i planned out tomorrow's meal and i have over 80 grams of sugar, but i only have walnuts, oatmeal (maple and brown sugar, which has about 20 g of sugar), 1 banana and apple, and 1 slice of cheese, and some vegetables. besides the oatmeal, is there anything i can cut out that will reduce the amount of sugar i eat, or is it fine, as long as i don't have cookies and stuff? this isnt just for weight loss, but to avoid other health things like diabetes. | |||
| Foods | Pizza? | Jan 10 2008 22:54 (UTC) |

| Foods | Ice cream problems!!! | Jan 10 2008 12:10 (UTC) |

| yea, my mom just went to costco and bought ice cream from there (1/2 a gallon!) and i cant stop eating it either. It's been there for like 5 days and it's more than halfway gone. (1/2 cup is 270 calories! that's ridiculous).
yesterday I didnt have as much ice cream though. I took just one scoop of ice cream in a cup and ate it really really slowly. Then after like two bites (is it bite? you dont bite ice cream. oh well), some of the ice cream in the cup melted. I stuck it back in the freezer. When I craved it again I got my cup back (no refills!) and did the same thing. yea it worked. I had less than 1/2 cup yesterday b/c I kind of tricked myself into thinking I had a more than one servings (but i didnt! :D). NEVER take spoonfuls straight out of the bucket or you'll lose track of how much ice cream you've been eating (i've had more than 1000 calories of ice cream in a day before). |

| Weight Loss | can't get back on track! | Jun 26 2007 02:56 (UTC) |
|
| yeah I heard the whole taking a walk thing works very well. the problem is, i live in new york, and theres food all around. i have a weakness for oatmeal cookies, which they sell in the grocery stores, and they have at least 1 or 2 of these grocery stores on each block (i'm not kidding!) so taking a walk doesn't really work for me. :( | |||
| Weight Loss | can't get back on track! | Jun 26 2007 01:28 (UTC) |

| thanks!! so I guess I'll do that, start all over again. I've spent the last few days stressing out over how I ruined everything, and im not really focusing on getting better. julieraven, I do need to lose weight. the reason I became overweight is because when I was at a normal weight, my family always told me I was fat, so I thought there was nothing I can do b/c I wasnt losing anything so I just kept on eating and here I am 20 lbs overweight.
sreeves, its not healthy, but I guess a little is ok, but I buy those 100 calorie packs of oreos, goldfish and stuff, and they're really good for a low calorie snack. applesauce or yogurts are also good. oh and grapes and bananas! so yea, thanks! i'm going to start tomorrow again! oh yea, what also didnt help me is that i stopped hanging out on calorie count for a while and my only "motivation" for a while was my mom, who is like 40 lbs overweight, criticizes my weight, and then buys cake everyday. anyway, I'll learn from my mistakes and not from my mom. |

| I kind of told my mom about the replies (she gets mad if I tell anyone anything that goes on at home) and she didnt care. My sister's still doing it, even though I've constantly told her nicely to stop. I've tried to get my own room, but I cant. I've slept on the couch just so I wont have to see her naked first thing in the morning, and now I'm sleeping in my mother's room. But she still walks around like that and she does it even more when she wants to annoy me or when I dont do something she wants me to do. It pisses me off b/c they all know how much I hate that and they laugh about it when I get mad. And my mom usually does the same thing just to get a reaction from me. I swear I really hate this place. I really understand now why my dad hates them so much. | |||
| Weight Loss | cheat days | May 12 2007 22:06 (UTC) |
14 |
| beer, i dont know. but cheat days, I have them once a week (or I should have them once a week) and I prefer any day of the weekend. it's really hard to count calories on a weekend. on cheat days, i eat anything I want and however much. | |||
| Weight Loss | how do you increase calorie deficit while maintaining a net of 1200 cals? | May 11 2007 11:38 (UTC) |
15 |
| I'm not sure if I'm explaining this well, but females need at least 1200 calories per day (males need 1500). You lose weight if you burn more calories than what you eat. so if you eat 1200 calories and burn 1700, you'll have a deficit of 500 calories. Your body needs you to eat 1200 calories in order to function well, but you could burn some of that off. Those 1200 calories give you energy and I'm assuming that you burn off the calories that you have already used? That's what I understand from this whole thing, but now that I think of it, I might be a little confused too. |

| The Lounge | Who Has A Wii? | May 11 2007 11:33 (UTC) |
1 |
| i bought the wii when it came out and finished zelda about 2 weeks later (such a good game!) I have zelda, wii sports, rayman, ssx blur, and i think that's it. plus the games on the virtual console. wii sports is really fun, but i think it would have been cool if for baseball, instead of just pitching and batting, we could also run or something, like just shake our arms really fast. that would have been great! |

| Fitness | Best Exercise for Weight Loss? | May 10 2007 10:41 (UTC) |
12 |
| I'm assuming the best exercises are the ones that burn more calories (check on the activities list). In my case, I like to switch it up, so for cardio I like treadmills, ellipticals (i'd say that's the best), and Tae Bo. I lift weights for muscle (it makes me a little heavier, but it increases my metabolism) and I do pilates for flexibility and toning. When I really dont want to officially exercise one day, I just doing something fun like a sport or skating, or I DDR (I play DDR on my "off" days, so I'm still getting exercise in a fun way) |

| Weight Loss | Isn't counting calories ruining your life? | May 10 2007 10:33 (UTC) |
28 |
| counting calories is technically just a guideline for us to eat in moderation. some people need to keep track of these things. its not like we dont enjoy doing this. of course, sometimes it gets frustrating, but everyone is doing it because they want to be healthy. yeah, we only have one life. isn't that a good reason for us to take care of it? | |||
| Weight Loss | yeah im 15 | May 10 2007 10:26 (UTC) |
|
| i'm 16. you sound a lot like me (except i've struggled with my weight since i was very little). i started at 143 lbs, now i'm at 131. My goal is to get down to 115. I might be happy at 120. So ill get there around july. keep it up and you'll be at a healthy weight in just a couple of weeks.
and about wanting to stuff your face, i feel exactly the same way you do. but then i think about how guilty i will feel if i need to lose weight, but im still eating whatever i see. if i'm at a healthy weight, i would feel much better doing that and simply increasing the amount of exercise i do to maintain my weight. the fun always comes after the hard work (i think) |

| usually she wears just panties, but sometimes no. i'm only 16, so i cant move out yet. and she doesn't have a boyfriend (even if she did, she wants to wait until she gets married). but she always says she's more comfortable naked. you shouldnt get comfortable at the expense of someone else's comfort. she could totally get comfortable with clothes on. | |||
