Oh, But of Course...
You have to say that in a French accent :-P
Anyway. I woke up with a horrible headache. Yesterday I weighed in just as a check and it said I had gained .7lbs…even though I have only gone over my calories (and only by like 100ish) twice in the last week. And I’ve been really, really cranky all day.
But of course.
I started my period. It does all make sense now. Especially the complete...

Tumblr Tuesday: The Oldies But Goodies Edition
Somehow this ending up in my queue…. Dear tumblr, stop being weird….
Anyyyway, let’s try this again….
So, when I first started tumblr, I started following like 20 weight loss blogs…however, I instantly fell in love with 2 people. So, when they became absent from tumblr, it broke my little heart.
BUT luckily for me (AND YOU!) they are making a come back! Hurrah!
Soooo...
canadianspy asked: For us newbies, what's MFP?

curvesformiles-deactivated20110 asked: I hope you have amazing and satisfying birthday sex with your hottie import hubby. I want you to go to Disney World and live in the Cinderella castle forever because you're like a L'oreal spokesperson. YOU'RE WORTH IT. You should do coregasm workouts today because exercises that hurt are no fun on your birthday. Seriously. There should be a birthday lobster or whole stuffed pig...
eatsmeup asked: I started following you because I like that your weight loss goals are driven by health. I like hearing about it from the point of view of someone who is secure enough to say they she loves her body. Honestly, I greatly admire you and your tumblr is pretty interesting. :)

Hey, give us a few months and we'll have fantastic legs that we can show off, but it's still necessary to have a few outfits that are suitable for seeing the grandparents in, haha.
How are you doing? Congrats on staying to your calorie limit over thanksgiving! We...

Thank You & Explaination
Thank to everyone who said such nice things about me in regards to following me.
But, that’s not exactly what I meant. I wasn’t fishing for compliments, I have just gotten a lot of thinspo/ED/pro-ana/mia followers lately and I don’t understand why.
Yes, I understand where they are coming from, but for where I am now, they go against everything I stand for.
I am all about...
Anonymous asked: hey
Thanksgiving....
It wasn’t horrible….but I could do without it.
The stress was still outrageous this morning. I got to play the peace maker one too many times. There was also crying. And my dad cut his finger open.
My grandparents were actually nice to each other (civil used to be all I could hope for…. My grandpa, step-grandma & grandma-the ex wife) which was kinda weird. But nice.

Tumblr Tuesday: The Makes Me Happy Edition
If you read my last mopey pant post, you’ll know that I hate thanksgiving, but what I didn’t say is that since I was 5, I have HATED/loathed/despised my birthday. I’ve always had really shitty birthdays until recently.
So there has always been a bit of a cloud over my birthday. Other than my husband, however, there have been a few people who have gone out of their way to help me...
Thanksgiving Realization
I have seen a lot of people really scared/nervous about Thanksgiving. Which got me thinking….why wasn’t I?
Yes, I am in control of my thanksgiving dinner brunch. But there is still going to be a lot of really delicious food and the day after my birthday, so a lot of reasons to want to overindulge.
Then I realized it. It’s cause I HATE thanksgiving.
It’s not just cause...

20. List it. Instead of listing everything you THINK you need, first plan your meals for the week and then buy the ingredients you’ll ACTUALLY need to make them. By doing so, experts say you just might save up to 41% on your grocery bill.

Here I Come Bandwagon! (25 things)
I was in the gifted program at school from 1st-6th grade.
I get anxiety when I have to talk on the phone.
I absolutely LOVE dancing.
My boyfriend husband honestly saved my life/sanity.
I am an amazing listener. I actually seriously considered going to school to be a Psychologist because I love hearing about problems and giving advice. I love when people tell me their problems.

Seeing Red
Have you ever been really good friends with someone and then they just kind of….abandon you/drop off the face of the earth and never text you back?
Well. I have. A couple of times. I had this friend. We had her and her husband over for dinner every week, sometimes more than that. We would talk a lot and she was one of the few people I felt like I could really talk to (despite the fact that...

Perfection.
I wrote this to my lovey. But realized that everyone should hear it.
you, my love, are way to hard on yourself. They aren’t mistakes.
It’s all part of the journey.
There is no perfect. There are no mistakes.
There are lessons and accomplishments.
What Have You Lost?
Myownbody and I have been having fun adding up things to get how much we’ve lost.
How about you? Edit: Some of these are weird…. but still fun nonetheless
I’ve lost 2 car tires; or a 5-gallon bottle of water; or 8 bags of sugar!
1 pound = a Guinea Pig 1.5 pounds = a dozen Krispy Kreme glazed donuts 2 pounds = a rack of baby back ribs 3 pounds = an average human brain 4...

Good Morning East Coast....
“Up” at 4am. Shitty, shitty night. Allergy attack, painful hair crimp, allergy attack, raw nose. Gave up trying to sleep. “Princess & the Frog” instead.

Why is the right thing sometimes so hard?
thefatass:
Specifically, why is bad food so tempting? It tastes alright, but good food almost always tastes better and feels more satisfying. Currently trying to figure this out.
Because the high glysemic level tricks your brain into thinking it’s delicious. After a while of not having stuff like that, it actually makes you feel sick…and start to realize that it’s not...
You Know What Truly Upsets Me?
1. When people lose more than a pound and are upset.
Why does everything have to be a race?!
Healthy weight loss is 1-2 lbs a week. If you’re doing that congrats!
Do not cut back your calories because you “only lost 1 lbs this week.” Also, don’t say only. 1 lbs is a lot. It adds up quickly. Seriously, you do not know what super fast weight loss does… it really...
To Do List.
Make banana bread
Make rice
Make Fish en Papillote
Make granola?
Gazelle it up.
Shower.
I’m already tired looking at this! Hahahaha (I’ll answer questions later, not ignoring you…and I will be answering you G :-) )
