New Members Logging Food... Apr 21 2010

Hi there! It is pretty much the same thing as tallying by hand; however, it also keeps track of your percentages of fat/carbs/protein and other things like sodium intake etc. I think when people say that they just mean to be aware of how much you intake it doesn't matter where you do it, most just find on the site easiest. I've never really use the recipe analyzer so I can't really address that. But, the calorie counting you just search for your food, click the one that is most accurate, and click "add to food log". The other nice thing is that you don't have to worry about losing the paper and it keeps track of everything in the past too so you can see your journey

Hope that helps. Take care,
 - Aubrey

The Lounge abortion. agree, disgree? Jan 09 2008

I have never agreed with abortions - I began to research what they really were around the age of 12 or 13... I honestly find it revolting... especially when used at birth control... I could go on and on about why... and it's suprising to me that so many people don't actually know the processes behind abortions [not talking about people on here I didn't actually read all of the responses] but just in general so many people don't and that's even worse...

I found this quote from an abortion survivor which I think sums up how i feel:

"Abortion is morally wrong. Our country is shedding the blood of the innocent. America is killing its future."

Weight Loss what do you think? losing weight is hard even if you count calories! Jul 17 2007

If you want a washboard stomach, the goal isn't to lose weight. Your main goal shouldn't be calorie-counting (although, if done properly, can lead to healthy habits) but your main goal should be doing cardio (i.e. running/aerobic excercises) to get rid of what little fat you have on your stomach. Then work out your stomach (situps/crunches/w.e.)

Chances are you'll probably put on pounds, because muscle weighs more than fat. If memory serves me correctly, you don't want to restrict your calories, you want to eat what your body needs, and make sure you're getting plenty of protein. And drinking plenty of water. And just keep working out your stomach. But don't overwork it, or else you can hurt the muscles. But I'd say make sure you're starting off with 3/4 days a week with a good stomach workout

My experience has taught me that it's harderst for the people closer to say anything for 2 reasons:

  1. Because they're close to you they don't want to make you feel awkward, or themselves, in bringing up weight with a women, especially- but not limited to, because it's taught to be such a taboo subject.
  2. Because they see you so regularly it's more difficult for them to actually notice because they see the slow process. But those who rarely see you can spot the difference so much easier.
Also, it took me 40 pounds to have someone say anything, and at 45-50 is when everyone noticed. But only a handful of people have actually said anything to my face- most people have told my best friend. According to her, "Everyone and their mother has told me [her] that you look awesome with losing weight" along with the new hair and no glasses.

So, it's a tedius [sic] process and you have to be completely dependent on yourself for praise and self-reassurance. But trust me in the end is it not only worth it, but people will notice- they just may not say anything. Sorry.

But congrats that is awesome! :D

Weight Loss abercrombie and fitch needs to die Sep 28 2006

I agree I've never been a fan of abercrombie... I went in there once, was in there about 5 minutes and walked right back out. Firstly I would never pay that much for pretty much the SAME clothes I can get else where for less than half the price... it's rediculous. Not to mention all of the discrimanation and racism problems they've had/created.

I also HATE the varying sizes. Can someone please just get some consistancy, i don't care if it's bigger or smaller, just make it the same. I have to try on a range between Juniors 7-13 like what? And that's only at the few stores I shop at, I can't even imagine any more... I can't wait 'til I go shopping Friday.. i dont even know what I'm going to do lol. >:l

And I also agree with jayd294mp on larger clothing makers, especially plus sizes. I help my mom shop all of the time, and you should here me ranting in the store and it's not even personally effecting me... It's GROSS what they try to pawn off on people. It makes me want to get into fashion designing just to fix it... not that I am... but if I had the time and abilities I totally would. It's dispicable...

Meh. lol

Gilmore Girls= my life! lol I loooooooooooooooove this show... however I hate how the turned sex to be such a big role- but then again I guess that is how it is for some people... but still... I hate how it's in like EVERY show... but meh w/e- it's too good not to watch. However, I am very disappointed with Lorelai... I was soooo mad at the end of last season- you should have heard me yelling lol I was like PISSED for a week haha... But I think they had to make Lorelai and Luke break up because it's such a major thing to see when they're going to get together, so if they just get together where's the "fun" in that. Well- it's fun for me, but not for producers lol. :D Can't wait for next week :D
