Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

 yesss I have to agree

yeah my brothers are both soooo skinny! and they eat junk all day. lucky them :\

ugh I know what you mean about being lazy and then too tired by the end of the day.. I can never be bothered to remove mascara

I dont really have a routine, the only thing I do everyday is wash my face in the morning, just with water because soap always makes my skin feel awful!

I use moisturiser ocasionally, I used to put it on almost every day but now I only do about once a week or when my face feels dry. And I know what you mean about the full body moisturising, it takes ages and I always feel like I'm using too much lotion! I only do that about once every 2 weeks even though I get dry skin on my legs :S

Apparantly you're supposed to exfoliate your face once  a week, so sometimes I do that and I guess it does make a bit of a difference.

are you sure you can't get cheap vanilla extract? here in supermarkets you can get a little bottle (which actually lasts quite a while) for under 50p and it's with all the food colouring and other cooking ingredients.

there are actually bugs in most foods, all the ones containing some kind of flour anyway.

Let me explain, you ever see those huge machines which cut down the wheat and grind it and everything out in the fields? well those feilds are home to lots of bugs, the machine cuts down the wheat and any bugs that happen to be on it, the machines cant exactly say hey theres a bug here i better not grind it, so the bugs get ground up with the wheat.

That isnt to say that theres tons of bugs in flour, there is a screening process which removes many of the bugs, but they cant get everything.

And by the way, the way those bugs that get in flour and everything? The eggs are already in the flour.

 yeah, this one time when I was about 12, I was going to bake a cake and our flour was probably a few months past expiry. I opened the bag and was horrified to see all these little bugs crawling about inside it! Scary :S

wowzer, keep it up ok!

I gained weight because I got too obsessed with trying to lose weight when I didn't need to. Then I gained more because I was going through a hard time which meant I ended up eating too much all the time and not exercising.

I hate always having to weigh stuff and work out calories of things all the time. It was ok at first but now I'm just bored and annoyed at it.

weekends probably because there's less chance of a complete binge as my family are all there.

You know how you said the calorie needs calculator is inaccurate for under 20's, do you mean because they are still growing? Because I'm 17 and I haven't grown in any way for maybe 2 years. I asked my mum as well and she said that she finished growing when she was about 15. So even though I'm under 20, I don't think the calorie need calculator should be inaccurate for me?

usually..

breakfast: 9 ish

dinner: 6:30-7

and lunch and snacks are never really at the same time between breakfast and dinner.

that sucks. I just ate 1300 cals of pie for lunch and my breakfast was 900 cals so just those 2 alone are over my limit and I know I will have pizza later so I feel your pain :(

I don't think the percentages really matter as long as it's good fat, not saturated fat then if it works for you, good!

I think people seem to think the more they sweat, the more calories are burned but really sweating isn't always an indicator of how hard someone's working as some people don't sweat as easily. I think you lose more in the cold but I'm not sure how much of a difference it would be :\
