actually i live in canada and i have yet to see them sell a vegan burger at my local branch

hey guys, it's me. i'm still stuck at 125 even though i've been working out and eating right this week. best of all, my gym membership's been cut and i'm off on vacation next week. =S

if you want an explanation you can read about it here, it's very interesting:

basically you can try to relieve the pain by lifting the right side up.

hey sab120, feel free to join. weigh-ins are on fridays. :)

hey veggiegeek, it's cool that you live in Canada. i live in TO ;)

pcarpintero, that vegginner sounds good, lol. i actually ran 15 mins at 5 mph. it may not seem like much, but i've never been able to run at 5 mph continuously without slowing down, usually i alternate between 3 and 6.5 mph, so endurance is something i need to work on.

How are you guys doing?

if i only had one day to live food probably wouldn't be my priority.

it's kind of weird for me. one day i just decided to go vegetarian...just for the heck of it. one week turned into one month and one month turned into one year...and here i am, 2.5 years and still going. i guess it's like a competition for me. it has nothing to do with animal rights or health even. i just don't want to break my "streak"

You know, not to endorse bulimia or anything, but the more I read on this thread of self-loathing women professing their hatred of other women the more I want to hurl. Preferably in their direction.

Why do so many women have a deep seated hatred of their own kind? Is it because where brought up to be competitive with each other? Is it internalized hatred our society teaches us projected outward? Is it a desperate need for male approval, to be seen as the "cool" girl who's different from all the others? I've had beef with other women individually, but I never let me decide they represented the gender as a whole. So what is it? What has the WHOLE of womenkind ever done to these gals to make them hate women and de facto themselves?

 pardon me, but i've always found women to be much bitchier. now, i'm not saying all women are like that, just the ones that i've met. i am so much more comfortable with men because they are simpler...socially at least. i don't have to worry about all that girl drama. with us there's always drama, while guys i can just chill and have a beer with. ;)

breakfast: silk chocolate mixed with almond breeze plus fibre first cereal

snack: werther's candy

lunch: meatless chicken breast, carrots with butter sauce

snack: konnyaku threads with soy sauce and wasabi

dinner: instant mung bean noodles

snack: meatless chicken breast

snack while i'm watching the olympics in the AM: grapefruit and almond breeze, and either some cereal or peaches

yep. toronto here

yeah katiimenya, i do like having legs too, but it's a drag trying to find jeans that fit. if they fit around my waist they won't fit around my hips and vice versa.

soy ice cream, yum! look for the brand So Delicious, their flavours are a-ma-zing, although not necessarily good for you...ahem.

sweet chattynoel! i'm so glad you're going to Canada, it's where i live ;)

as for this week, still at 125, maybe i need to increase my cardio or something, the scale's not budging. anyway, i hope to hear more from you guys!

yep vegetariangeek, i'm still here. just came back from the gym. i ran for 2 miles...but it took me 30 minutes. for some reason i have a lot of trouble with running. i can cruise for an hour on the elliptical no problem, but when it comes to running, i get exhausted after 30 seconds.

i had a pretty good workout yesterday too, treadmill for cardio and a bit of weight training. eating hasn't been too good though...and by the way, how are the univ gyms like? i'm moving into college this fall and i'm so afraid that it won't be as well-equipped as the Y, which is what i'm used to.

 keep me posted guys! :)

Just the fact that people can't help bragging about what they ate is bad.  It's like a competition.  You all know that everyone's thinking god did she eat all that, or god she only ate that, just no one will dare admit it.

 No, as a matter of fact, only you are the one thinking it. We all have different needs, yes, but clearly you are eating under 1200 calories and it is **** annoying for us to keep having to repeat it to you. as deflepfan16 and direwolf689 said, either follow the rules, or get off.

honestly, some people never listen. it hurts to see so many use this thread as a means of flaunting their self-control.

breakfast: almond milk with all bran cereal

lunch: cream bun!

snack: chocolate protein bar

dinner: rice with kimchi, sauteed leafy greens,  fish,

snack: cup of full fat chocolate milk ;)
