The Girls Only Thread

[chiapet]

"the boobs one", ahhahaha. I took a look through the contestants' pictures to see which one that was, what sort of "reality" show can it be where half of your dating options are employed as some sort of model?

[guedita]

Well, the first episode is basically an audition. All the women had some sort of "line" or gimmick to make them stand out when they first meet him. Then a fake laugh and bodily contact. So well rehearsed...

What's great is that this show is allegedly "classy." I mean, I've watched other bad reality dating shows (on VH1 and MTV) that seem to have a tongue-in-cheek sort of trashiness...but I get the impression that the way the Bachelor women are packaged and presented indicates that this is the standard quo...

[chairmenmeow47]

my co-workers are trying a new diet drink or something. yet they both just bought sodas. why do people torture themselves with unfilling shit that doesn't work?

[locachica73]

I have never been one to "diet" before but all the gimmicks that people try have always annoyed me. Like the no carbs thing, WTF, you need carbs. There is a reason bread is in the food triangle. Or a grapefruit diet? ugh, i have never got it. I have found just not eating past 6 pm and not letting myself get full not only helps my ulcer but has helped me drop several pounds and makes me just feel a lot better. No need to starve or become that annoying person in the restaurant who has to have everything specially made.

[guedita]

The only surefire way to lose weight is diet AND exercise. And by diet, I mean cutting back on quantities/maintaining a specific caloric intake while still eating from all the healthy food groups.

Not eating past a specific hour is good too. And exercising early in the morning is the best, because it kicks your metabolism into gear!

But the food pyramid is admittedly fucked up. You need certain carbs. Sugars are not one of them. Sugars are really the devil.

[locachica73]

Well there are good carbs and bad carbs just like there is good fat and bad fat, but you need all those things in your diet at some point. Cutting one or another out completely will only trick your body into losing weight, then when you go back to normal eating habits you pile it back on, plus some.

I agree, just watching what you eat, when you eat and how you eat is the best way to go. If I could just motivate myself to actually excercise instead of just dancing 1 or 2 nights a week I would probably be doing much better. I just can't find the motivation.

[Monklish]

The only surefire way to lose weight is to not eat. It's really not that hard.

[chairmenmeow47]

would you like another brownie?

[Monklish]

Three please.

[caco0283]

Did somebody ask for a brownie??

[locachica73]

Are they "special" brownies?

[algunz]

What are all these "boys" doing in The Girls Only Thread? :nono

[locachica73]

exploring their feminine side maybe?

[algunz]

Exploring is for sure.

[amyzzz]

It's easier for me to take a dump when I'm on my period.

[caco0283]

Are they "special" brownies?

Depends if ya consider me special

[BROKENDOLL]

Damn, a brownie sounded tasty until Amy went and took a dump on it.

[algunz]

It's easier for me to take a dump when I'm on my period.

I find my self to be the opposite.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Damn, a brownie sounded tasty until Amy went and took a dump on it.

Were you lol'ing to yourself as you wrote this

[amyzzz]

I was trying to take a dump on the guys. err, well trying to get them out of here anyway.

[Monklish]

I find it easy to dump period.

By that I mean that I shit menstruation, not that I shit(.).

[locachica73]

Depends if ya consider me special

well, I haven't met you but I have read other peoples responses to your posts and it appears they think your "special" but not sure if that is in a good way or bad.

[chiapet]

I find my self to be the opposite.

One of my friends has put a lot of thought into a theory that some how links water retention to being constipated when PMS'ing and having the runs once your period starts.

I am scared of any boy who is not going to be run out of here by talk of menstrual blood and diarrhea.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

I was trying to take a dump on the guys. err, well trying to get them out of here anyway.

Guys LOVE to talk about taking dumps. Your goal may have completely backfired.

[locachica73]

OK, I am not a guy but the shitting/period discussion is disturbing to even me.

[JustSteve]

The only surefire way to lose weight is diet AND exercise. And by diet, I mean cutting back on quantities/maintaining a specific caloric intake while still eating from all the healthy food groups.

a complete lifestyle change works way better than a "diet". it's not something you do for a few weeks and then stop once you reach a goal, you gotta keep going.

[JustSteve]

The only surefire way to lose weight is to not eat.

or aids

[Monklish]

What's really strange about the whole conversation is that every time I bleed from my dick it makes me have to go no. 2.

[amyzzz]

I'm not actually talking about diarrhea or constipation. just pure joy.

[caco0283]

When I take a dump in the office I get really quiet when someone opens the door

[JustSteve]

That's usually when i push harder.

[locachica73]

lol, i love that there are people who are free to discuss their bathroom habits. I have always been completely embarrassed of any of those bodily functions. Nick even asked me the other day if I ever fart or shit because we have been together nearly a year and he has yet to catch me. I have actually been in serious pain but refused to "go".

[algunz]

Everyone Poops

[chiapet]

Well, since the shit doesn't seem to be working

http://shidie.win.mofcom.gov.cn/www/19/shidie/img/20079393325.jpg

[locachica73]

oh i know... i just am very shy about it. I had a hard enough time taking a piss for the first time in my new place with him there because I don't have a bathroom door between the master bedroom/bathroom.

[BROKENDOLL]

Were you lol'ing to yourself as you wrote this
Yes, yes I was. In fact, each time my fingertip hit a key, I could feel another surge of giggles building up inside of me.


Well, since the shit doesn't seem to be working

http://shidie.win.mofcom.gov.cn/www/19/shidie/img/20079393325.jpg
You know, those wings pads may be great and all, but used with thong panties, you end up attaching both sticky parts together. The end result is the hassle of trying to remove the bloody fucking mess without getting it all over yourself.

Sorry, just doing my part to help chia scare the boys away.

[Monklish]

One of you bleeding twats explain to me all manner of weird things about feminine products. What's with Pearls, Wings, all that shit.

[algunz]

That might scare everybody away.


A thong with a pad . . . are you retarded?

[locachica73]

I am pretty sure no one has ever referred to me as a bleeding twat... my life is now complete.

[rskapcat]

As far as I know, the tampons w/"pearls" are designed to keep you from leaking blood. Wings keep your pad from leaking onto the sides of your underpants.

[locachica73]

And those OB things without the applicator are just gross.

[amyzzz]

I finally bought the Urban Decay eye shadow primer and this eye shadow palette (Urban Ammo Eye Palette)

http://a248.g.akamai.net/7/248/8278/20061215225738/www.sephora.com/assets/dyn/product/P166063/P166063_hero.jpg

I'm going to experiment with this on Friday (cuz I have the day off). I also got a really expensive brush set. I'm quite embarrassed about that, but at least I'll be able to blend better.

[locachica73]

I saw a commercial last night for this new eyeshadow pencil thingy that is for the smokey eye that I like so much. It is a big round pencil shadow thing on one end and then a thinner one on the other end to go along the eyelashes. It looked pretty cool. I may have to check it out if I can remember who makes it.

[rskapcat]

Urban Decay's Oil Slick lipstick is my favorite! It looks black, but it's actually sheer. Just makes me lips a shade darker & glittery.

[locachica73]

For new years eve all the young waitresses at the bar I was at had sprayed glitter all over their chests, then when I got there they all hugged up on me so then my chest was all sparkly. I feel I am a little too old/cranky to sparkle but I love how it looks on others.

[algunz]

You're never too old to sparkle.

[locachica73]

I need to keep reminding myself of that. :)

[algunz]

Maybe too cranky though.

[caco0283]

This thread was so much better when we were talking about taking a shit

[algunz]

Well, then go away!

[locachica73]

i am pretty sure there is an entire thread (or 5) dedicated to that subject.

note to the girls, apparently periods and shit are an ok subject but glitter and eyeshadow, not so much. Strange.

[Monklish]

One time I ate an entire thing of glitter eyeshadow and at my next bowel movement it looked like my toilet was a blender full of pureed Feather.

[algunz]

You'd have to eat a pegeon too to get the full Feather effect.

[locachica73]

LOL, someone made a comment at last years coachella that they thought feather shit rainbows and glitter. I couldn't remember who said it but I am guessing now that it was randy.

[caco0283]

Well, then go away!

Somebody needs to change their cooter plug

[BROKENDOLL]

One of you bleeding twats explain to me all manner of weird things about feminine products. What's with Pearls, Wings, all that shit.
They used to make convenience the selling point on feminine products. When they realized we really don't give a shit about horseback riding or playing tennis, they needed to update with a different strategy...The Pearls are basically just tampons with a pearlescent plastic tube covering the same thing they always had, yet makes them look better than their competition. The Wings are for attaching to the undies so everything stays in place while we squirm and whine about our cramps.

That might scare everybody away.
A thong with a pad . . . are you retarded?
The first time I tried them, I thought the idea was retarded, yes. But, they do make pads designed for thong panties. (And you still have to deal with the sticky tape meeting up in the center.) So, I had to ask myself one day, "Self, WTF can you use all these winged pads for now, since they obviously are not user friendly for all?" And thus, the disposable work shoe comfort pad was developed! Go ahead...say that's retarded. But, when you work on your feet all day and find that after time, those Dr Scholl's shoe pads have lost their poof, taping a minipad inside the shoes adds the cushioning to get you through the day. They're absorbent, some are scented, and regardless...you can throw them out each day without breaking the bank. *Here's a tip though...You can't use them with sandals...that would be retarded.



As far as I know, the tampons w/"pearls" are designed to keep you from leaking blood. Wings keep your pad from leaking onto the sides of your underpants.
I thought all tampons were made for the prevention of leaking blood. And personally, winged or not, I'm not wearing one of those things long enough to worry about leaking over the sides. As far as I'm concerned they're just backup in case you're too far from using a restroom.

[GeezrRckr]

i almost bought that for one of my girlfriend's for christmas, but got her this urban decay one with lots of brownish/goldish shades that would look better on her.

http://www.elle.com/var/ezflow_site/storage/images/sandbox/smoky-eyes-made-easy/4048423-6-eng-US/Smoky-Eyes-Made-Easy_articleimage.jpg

This is the new covergirl stuff, I don't like what she did with her eyes in the photo just because that would be a little to dramatic for me, but I like the concept, I suck with the little eyeshadow brushes.

[BROKENDOLL]

Cooter plug. Kinda cute. Almost sounds like an accessory to the Snuggie, and if you think about it, (or, atleast think like I think. :rolleyes) it actually makes sense, since the Snuggie is open backed already.

If all else, with just a little more string on the Cooter plug, your Snuggie, and a nice breeze outside, you could attempt to fly like a kite.

Okay, obviously all this time off has begun to allow my thinking to get lost in left field. Before someone hits me with a bat, I better log off for the day.

[BROKENDOLL]

BTW, I think most guys gets squeamish when they get the details. It's as if all the years of thinking we were inconveniencing them with this nonsense, and suddenly they realize that anyway you look at it, us ladies still manage to survive after bleeding for 4-5 days. It baffles the shit out of them, I think.

[chiapet]

Wait, what's gross about OB, loca? They're a lot less weird than cramming tubes of plastic or cardboard up your cooter.


it's because you left out a key component in that shot, heidi.

That was my next step if the guys stuck around. Like firing a warning shot.

[chiapet]

BTW, I swear to god they make pads designed for thongs. What is the fucking point of that?

[rskapcat]

I could see the point of a pantyliner to supplement a tampon, but a pad with a thong is just asking for an accident.

[chiapet]

Maybe they're pantyliners. The idea of any such thing with a thong just seems ridiculous. Wear big girl panties for a couple of days, for god's sake.

[miscorrections]

Urban Decay's Oil Slick lipstick is my favorite! It looks black, but it's actually sheer. Just makes me lips a shade darker & glittery.

That totally bummed me out around Halloween when I was looking for black lipstick. It is SO HARD to find a truly opaque black that's not a horrible texture or whatever.

[chiapet]

What'd you end up using? Eye liner? When I was a goth :( I just put chapstick or foundation on my lips and then eye liner. Not a good look.

[algunz]

Before everybody gets their pads in a bunch, you're right, Heidi, pantyliners. Anyway you look at it, being tampons, pads, liners, whatever, it helps to explain why we become bitchy once a month... Show me one guy that could handle the bullshit we do just to reproduce offspring...

[chairmenmeow47]

[algunz]

Sorry Ivy. Should I delete it?

[BROKENDOLL]

I'm not so sure it's the cooter getting punched, ladies...

[JebusLives]

no, no, its part of history now.

[Ha.SK]

so day two of my diet and im counting calories since that always seems to work for me in the past. ive now learned that i can still eat out and not eat conventional foods and i still lose weight. for instance yesturday i had:

coffee w/ sugar free creamer = roughly 75 cal
ramen noodles = 380 cal
frito chips (the mini size bag) = 160 cal
sourdough bacon and chicken sandwich from jack in the box = 555 cal

so my total calories for yesturday were 1170 and in order for me to lose weight i have to keep each day under 1300.

oh and about the whole not pooping when your partner is around....I DONT GET IT. if you have to take a crap then crap! ill must admit in the begining it was a little awkard to pee/poo in front of my boyfriend but after 5 years, you get over it. not that i willingly keep my bathroom door open when im doing my buisness but if he happens to be in the other room i really dont care.

.

Don't forget to factor in the calories you burn during the day. Seriously, don't under-nourish yourself!

[chiapet]

1300 calories seems like very little. Under-eating doesn't help you lose weight.

I failed at going to the gym tonight. Instead I read and ate carnitas. :)

[matildawong]

That's ok chia. I made it to the gym ... but did a paltry 25 minutes on the treadmill and then ate Trader Joe's Fruit Gems after eating well all day. yum.


Oh. Fruit Gems are candy, btw.

[Monklish]

Under-eating doesn't help you lose weight.

Absolute and total bullshit.

[chiapet]

I meant losing weight in any long term sense, and cutting back calories (with still a 'normal' caloric intake) does not equal 'under-eating'.

[Monklish]

Actually under-eating does a great job of reducing weight for quite a while because your stomach shrinks. All you have to do to regain weight if you lost it all through exercise is stop exercising.

[unknown]

I finally bought the Urban Decay eye shadow primer


I've heard the Urban Decay Primer Potion is fantastic. Let me know what you think. I may pick some up soon - I've been using Mac's Paint Pot in Painterly for a little bit and I like it.

I guess the idea of the insertion without the applicator grosses me out a little. The applicator at leasts keeps the fingers from getting narsty, for the most part. I have never used them but the idea kind of grosses me out. But I can't wear tampons anyway so I am stuck with narsty pads.

Make sure that the calories you are getting aren't just a bunch of empty calories, you will end up feeling a lot more hungry at the end of the day.

And I don't know, the pooping thing, I know it seems strange but I have always just been weird about bodily functions. It could be because I grew up in a house where my father would lift his leg and aim at me and I was traumatized, or maybe it was my old boss who would time the amount of time I would spend in the bathroom and comment on it if he thought I was in there too long. Whatever the reason, I usually wait till Nick is sleeping and sneak into the other bathroom or wait till he is smoking a cigerette if I need to fart. I am an odd duck I know.

[algunz]

My neighbor across the street has been living with her boyfriend for 6 years or more and has never pooped while he is around. I can't imagine that.

One of the bathrooms at work is directly across from my boss' office. I take a twisted pleasure in pooping there just so I know he has to smell my shit.

I hate my boss.

[locachica73]

I was teased a lot as a kid, being the heavy girl, having a speach impediment (sp?), now I only have a lisp but when I was a kid I couldn't say my R's or my S's, being poor and always wearing my sisters hand-me-downs 5 years after they went out of style... I was teased about everything most of my childhood. It all added to my uptightness and need to not draw attention to myself. I have come out of my shell a lot but there are still some weird things I am really embarrassed by. I wish I could be as open about these things as most people, just can't get past the past so to speak.

[algunz]

That's understandable. Hopefully you can get beyond it all and take pride in yourself and your shit. I only know you from the boards, but I can tell you have a lot going on to be proud of. :winkiss

[locachica73]

:) thanks, I feel really good about life lately. Not something I have really been able to say before.

[algunz]

It only took 36 years. Good work. :thu

[Ha.SK]

yesturday i had:

coffe w/creamer: 75
fritos chips (mini bag): 160
smart-ones rice and cheese entree: 310
funyuns (mini bag): 150
lean pocket: 290
chips: 160

total cal: 1145

i think its easier for me to eat this way is because i am pettie and i usually dont have to eat too much to stay full. as long as i eat throughout the day im set.

also because im at a high stress level job and am constantly runing around on my feet all day i dont stop to think about food unless im on a break. im usually away from home for about 11 to 12 hours a day and my dinner is never after 8pm.

[chiapet]

Not to shit all over your diet plan, but you realize almost half your calories were from chips, right?

[Ha.SK]

haha yea and im okay with that for now since im broke and cant seem to go to the grocery store for a while.

I wasn't being judgmental or anything. I typed that with a hot wing in my hand.

no prob chia its cool i do the same thing sometimes.

[locachica73]

Broke added to my bad eating habits as well, along with frustration. Yesterday I ate a tamale, small bag of doritos, can of green beans and washed it down with a squirt.

Now I am drinking free company coffee and will have another tamale for lunch. I need a second job. ugh

[amyzzz]

I had uhh pizza and ice cream for supper last night. I actually need to gain weight though. I don't feel right weighing 100 lbs.

[locachica73]

I have never wanted to gain weight but I can tell you what worked for me... olive gardens fettuchini alfredo was a huge contributing factor back in the 90's. :)

[guedita]

Amy, one way to gain a pound or two is to switch to drinking vitamid D (whole) milk. As a milk lover, I think it's the absolute tastiest.

[locachica73]

thank god I don't want to gain weight because the idea of vitamin d milk makes me want to gag. I have to put ice in 2% just to water it down.

[chairmenmeow47]

being broke does wonders for me as well. i'm currently enjoying the ramen & popcorn diet myself :p

[locachica73]

LOL ramen was my other alternative but I let the kids have that stuff. We only have the chili pepper lime one and its too spicy, plus there is just something in that stuff that hurts my gut. I do miss it sometimes though.

[Ha.SK]

i like the chicken flavored ramen and then i put a lil bit of tapatio and squeeze some lime/lemon juice over the top. makes it taste so much better.

[chiapet]

Packaged ramen is not really diet food -- take a look at the amount of fat in one of those packages, you'll be shocked. ;) Tasty stuff though.

There is a reason people gain weight when they go to college -- most of the packaged convenience food you eat in college is pretty high in either calories or fat.

[guedita]

And sodium

[amyzzz]

I wonder how many pounds I need to gain to bump up my cup size? 30? lolz.

edit: I guess I should ask Renee Zellwegger.

[chiapet]

Amy, do you *need* to gain weight, or do you just feel like you should based on the scale? The only things I could suggest are to eat more protein and healthy fats. You could probably manage to gain weight by eating junk food, but that wouldn't be so healthy. :) Maybe nuts, trail mix, seeds, more meat or fish? Maybe eat more often?

[HowToDisappear]

The answer is yes.

I lost 30 pounds and lost a cup size.

when i'm broke & can't afford a full dinner, i always lose a little weight when i just end up eating ramen for dinner several days a week, including this week. but i also excercise every day, so it's not really my "diet food" it's just i'm not eating as much.

[chiapet]

And sodium

This is my weakness. I could give up every dessert on earth and be happy with some salt licks. I really struggle not to dowse all my food in sea salt.

[chairmenmeow47]

ditto on the salt thing. i had a friend who wouldn't sit next to me in booths due to my salt intake in high school. i've gotten better and i've also forced myself to taste food other people made for me before salting so as not to be rude, but it's hard. i want all the salt of the earth!!!

Yup, if you're expending more calories than you're consuming, you could be having ice cream for dinner and still lose weight.

^^^ this is what my brother does, it's infuriating that he stays so thin. but he does work out a lot.

[locachica73]

I have a question for all the pot smoking women on here, not sure how many of you that includes though...

Do you notice that you tend to be a lot more paranoid when high the week before girl time? I have noticed this a lot the last few months. I was just curious if I am the only one.

[matildawong]

I lost a fair amount of weight when I skipped dinners most nights back when I was living with my senior age godparents for a stint.


Ooh. Niiice grammar.


<edit> sorry, Loca. I was addressing skipping dinner. :>

[malcolmjamalawesome]

Right, but losing weight doesn't = being healthier if you're still eating like shit. Your insides will still be all fucked up.

Then again, none of you harpies seem concerned with what's on the inside anyway ... oh boo hoo hooooo

[amyzzz]

I guess I could go with tuna and nuts. And ice cream. And havarti cheese maybe. mmmmm. I don't know -- maybe I just feel bad because I'm underweight, and my husband is overweight. I'm so co-dependent. He likes me skinny though. I'm not really sure how much weight gain I could get away with on my small frame though. Not more than 15 lbs probably.

[HowToDisappear]

How tall are you?

[amyzzz]

5'5"

[HowToDisappear]

I'm 5'4". And have been keeping myself at about 120-122. I thought you were taller than me. You could stand to gain more than 15 lbs. You're way too thin at 100 lbs.

[Ha.SK]

Then again, none of you harpies seem concerned with what's on the inside anyway ... oh boo hoo hooooo

does anyone?

Edit:
i should elaborate. if your trying to look better apperance wise, do you think a persons gonna ask themselves "well she looks great but does she eat 5 servings of vegetables per day?"

[guedita]

I care. I eat relatively healthy, the worst thing I think I put in my system is the occasional bag of kettle chips...and beer.

[HowToDisappear]

Amy, I have a small frame, so when I decided to lose weight, I used the 5 lbs for every inch above 5 feet to find my ideal weight. You should be 125.

Cheese, butter, cream. Just start eating.

[Ha.SK]

i use to be a vegetarian and would only eat out MAYBE once a week. i know when you eat better foods yes you do feel so much more healthier.

i just doubt that people really give a shit how healthy your body is if the first thing a persons sees is your apperance. im just stating a fact.

[miscorrections]

That 5 lbs per inch is bullshit. I would look ridiculous at 130 lbs because I have a bigger frame and am meant to have fairly considerable hips and boobs. Not saying I couldn't stand to lose weight, because it would definitely look better, but on my not-eating stint I was around 140 and a size 6 and looked reasonably thin.

[chiapet]

Very true, Ha.SK and one of the issues I have with standardized BMI / weight charts and such, as well as people (women especially) thinking they need to be a specific size. It does not take into account what you've done to yourself to get to that weight or size. We all know the "overweight" person who actually eats well and works out regularly, as well as the "underweight" person who carries bags of candy everywhere.


I know I've posted this before but I love the Flickr BMI project -- it's meant to show that BMI charts are bogus:

We all know the "overweight" person who actually eats well and works out regularly, as well as the "underweight" person who carries bags of candy everywhere.

I think I bought 5 or 6 candy items at Walgreen's last night. Mostly for my man though. (I wasn't up for it after the ice cream).

a friend of mine who is 45 years old and 5'2 and usually weighed about 160lbs was told by her nutritionist that for her frame her ideal weight should be 125. she got down to 132 and looked so skinny so she stop dieting because anymore weight loss would have made her look sickly.

[miscorrections]

I both feel and look fat, but that's my own damn fault. For me it's somewhere between 5 and 10 lbs.

Re: Randy's comment.

Maybe I should put it this way: how much weight do I have to gain to make the wrinkles disappear?

[Ha.SK]

forget gaining weight. use mositurizer every day and stay out of the sun.

I agree. I may be fat now but at 5'2"-ish and 140lbs I was a size 6 and even had to tailor my clothes because my waist was not quite big enough for a 6. I worked out every single day though, including lifting every day, so that made a difference weight-wise.

~160lbs is the weight that looks best on me, that's about a size 8 or 10 on me (mostly because of the boobs). It sounds incredibly fat, but didn't look that way. People seem to not have a honest understanding of how much women weigh, since we lie about our weight and/or have this idea that we all need to be somewhere under like 125 lbs no matter what our height or build is like.

[chairmenmeow47]

that would mean i should only be 130. i look like shit at that weight. this is me at 125:

i would care a whole lot more about my insides if they weren't such high maitenance bitches. healthy food is expesnive.

[HowToDisappear]

I have a small frame. No curves. When I'm fat, I'm straight up and down like a tree trunk. When I'm thin, I'm a fence post. When I married, I weighed 104. At my heaviest, I weighed 150. The 5 lbs per inch rule works perfect for me, and would probably apply well to Amy too, as she is also not the curvy type. She needs some sort of baseline to get to. If she thinks that gaining 15 lbs is sufficient, it's not. At least 125 is doable.

[locachica73]

There is no way in hell I could ever weigh 125 lbs. I am 5'6" and looked like skelator in the face when I threw up for 6 months straight and weighed in at 153. I need to try to find those photos of when I was pregnant with my daughter, it was scary if you ask me. And I just think women look better with some meat on their bones.

[chiapet]

Oh it's possible, loca. In my (literal) non-eating days I was well under 100 lb (under 70 for a while). I don't think I even have pictures from that time frame, but needless to say I looked absolutely revolting. Like a skeleton with skin.

[guedita]

Eating healthy doesn't have to be expensive. Vegetables and fruit can be cheap. Whole grain rice, bread, and pasta cost exactly the same as generic.

[locachica73]

I would probably have to go on a 6 month meth binge to get to that weight lol.

I still really like plain lettuce but I'm kind of a freak that way.

[locachica73]

We are pretty close to the square, it wouldn't be hard to do.

[rskapcat]

To get to the weight I'm supposed to be by that "5 lbs an inch" rule, I would need to lose 50 lbs. My tits and ass would be GONE. Fuck that. My happy place is 150, so that's where I'm headed. I'm not happy where I am, but I'd rather stay here than be 120 lbs. Even when I was on swim team and in the pool 4 hours a day in high school, I think I weighed between 140 and 145.

[chiapet]

yea if your going to wal mart.

organic should be the route to take and locally grown organic fruits and vegetables are more costly then mass produced so called 'all natural' foods you find at most super markets.

I'd argue that eating non-organic, mass produced vegetables and fruits is still better than eating ramen cups. There are plenty of vegetable options that are not expensive.

embrace your freak girl. I am the same way, I prefer salad to candy, a can of green beans is actually a very tasty dinner to me. I have never been much of an eater, in fact I eat far less then my skinny friends, just unlucky to have shitty metabolism.

[guedita]

I'd argue that eating non-organic, mass produced vegetables and fruits is still better than eating ramen cups. There are plenty of vegetable options that are not expensive.

Exactly. It's frustrating to hear people claim that they want to be healthy but "can't afford it." If consumers spent less money on mass packaged products like Ramen, organic food would theoretically go down in price.

[guedita]

And...canned/frozen vegetables are cheap and many are equally nutritious as fresh produce.

[Ha.SK]

im not stating that ramen should be any persons main go to food. your right ramens sodium, fat, calories and carbs are rediculous. my whole point was eating its expensive to eat the right healthy foods people should be eating.

as far as what ive read and what goes on on most farms what with all the pesticides that are sprayed onto our fruits and vegetables is pretty disgusting to me.

do you know that most farmers set up a side area for their own vetetables that they can eat that are not sprayed with all that crap. its crazy.

[HowToDisappear]

I would probably have to go on a 6 month meth binge to get to that weight lol.

I severely reduced my saturated fat and refined sugar intake. Eliminated soda permanently. Rarely drink fruit juice. Don't drink alcohol, so that's not an issue. Brown rice only. Very lean meat/chicken/fish. Greatly increased fruit/veggie/monounsaturated fat intake. Did that for 3 1/2 months and lost 30 lbs without exercise.

I got down to 118 and was pretty alarmed, so I stopped the really restrictive eating and just eat everything in moderation now. All through the holidays I've eaten goodies and such, but I'm still at 122, without exercising. I was always a skinny person, except for the last 7 years or so, when I gained a considerable amount of weight. I'm so much happier at this good medium range, and I feel a 1000 times better.

a lot of food that is labeled as organic is not really fully organic, though. true organic fruits and veggies, for the most part, don't look that good on the outside. a lot of that shit is a scam.

[Ha.SK]

i think for me personally ive been from one extreme to the next. ive ate out fast food every single day and didnt give a crap whether it was healthy or not.

and then ive also stoped eating all meats, no dairy and my main food source was soybeans and vegetables. i felt very happy and healthy.

i understand how easy it is and less expensive to hurry and pick something up at mc donalds or grab a dozen apples for only 2 dollars at wal mart. ive unfortunatly gone back to eating meat and shopping for these cheap inexpensive foods. i know FOR ME PERSONALLY that if i want to really go back to being healthy im going to do it right. not be a vegetarian but a vegan and not shop at wal mart.

its like praying to god that your going to be a better person and then the next day your cutting yourself and doing lines in your bathroom.

is it strange to already start thinking about what i want to wear to coachella? im looking at clothes even though my hands a frozen and i should be looking at sweaters im searching for summer clothes.

[locachica73]

Farmers market is a better source for healthy organic vegies, cheaper than what they sell in the grocery stores. But I just don't have the time or the energy, or the desire even. I am over weight, I will probably always be over weight, I have accepted that. I eat pretty good, for the most part, just because I am forced to, my body doesn't digest food the way its suppose to so stuff heavy in preservatives actually hurts.

I am pretty healthy physically though (except the ulcer thing), I mean I can go out and dance for 4 hours straight without having a stroke so that has to say something, right?

Just be happy with what you have, fuck what the BMI tells you.

Not in the slightest. Your posts concerning your weight loss and opinion of healthy eating are baffling. You also continually use "your" when you mean to say you're.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

You do seem somewhat retarded, Ha.SK.

[HowToDisappear]

You know what prompted me to lose weight? All the pictures of myself from last Coachella.

I'd been telling myself for some time that I needed to, and that I'd feel better and be healthier if I did, but boy those pics did it. Shlumpy, frumpy, middle-aged matron. Fucking horrifying. Especially since I don't feel that way on the inside at all. We came home, I saw those, and I started dieting a month later.

[Ha.SK]

Nope, I started thinking as soon as I booked my flight.

last year i wore a dress and some sneakers so i think i might go the same route again. maybe sandals would be better this year but im really weird about me wearing sandals around big crowds. i start thinking about what if someone steps on my toe and rips off a nail.

[J~$$$$]

Dont listen to them Ha.sk. They are just jellious fatties.

[amyzzz]

I am starting to think about hats for coach. I want a great hat this year because I did not like my bandana look of last year.

[malcolmjamalawesome]

I didn't like that look, either.

[obzen]

Clever?

[JustSteve]

i was wondering if that was intentional.

[locachica73]

lol yeah I sometimes think I had reverse anorexia, I never saw the huge girl in the mirror that looked back at me. And I was huge, I see pictures of myself when I was married, or even from coachella last year and i just never saw that person in the mirror. They say the camera adds 10lbs, but in my case it seemed more like 30.

I weighed myself on Christmas and I have lost 50+lbs since coachella. I run into people I haven't seen in awhile and they tell me how amazing I look, of course I have plenty more to lose but compared to what they were use to seeing I guess they might be right, but I don't feel or seem to look any different to myself.

Being vegan CAN be healthy. IMO, it takes more effort to eat healthfully as a vegan because you have to make more careful food choices. Hopefully many people that are vegan are somewhat educated on nutrition and are able to eat well.

That being said, I have definitely encountered people who were vegan for ethical reasons rather than health reasons and they ate like hell. I know vegans who don't like vegetables. :) They eat fried shit and tofu only.


as far as what ive read and what goes on on most farms what with all the pesticides that are sprayed onto our fruits and vegetables is pretty disgusting to me.

Sure -- but what exactly do you think goes into packaged foods? That ramen cup starts as non-organic grains and vegetables and farm raised meat or fish. You're not even getting the benefit of eating consumer grade non-organic food, though, but the food equivalent of 'remnants', really.

I'm not trying to give you a hard time, I eat some processed food myself, but with the knowledge that I'm eating incredible worthless crap.


a lot of food that is labeled as organic is not really fully organic, though. true organic fruits and veggies, for the most part, don't look that good on the outside. a lot of that shit is a scam.

Standards for labeling organic are definitely iffy, here we're lucky enough to be near farms, have access to many farmer's markets, and organics delivery services. The quality is usually good since their immediate reputation depends on it, versus being a faceless brand in a supermarket.

That being said, not being able to find or afford organic produce isn't a valid excuse to eat crap instead of unprocessed foods.

[locachica73]

One of my girlfriends use to be vegan, going to lunch with her was very annoying. But then she started dating a meat eater and changed her ways.

[chiapet]

embrace your freak girl. I am the same way, I prefer salad to candy, a can of green beans is actually a very tasty dinner to me. I have never been much of an eater, in fact I eat far less then my skinny friends, just unlucky to have shitty metabolism.

I blame my parents for it! While they didn't do everything perfectly, they were pretty particular about what was available in our house. Being in a rural area, if the junk food wasn't in the house, it was pretty hard to get elsewhere -- we had to walk several miles to the nearest store.

My parents had a really good system though I think -- they didn't completely outlaw junk food, but forced us to practice moderation. For example, my dad really liked soda, so we drank soda -- once a week. When we drank it, we'd get an entire bottle each. Our friends thought this was amazing that our parents would just give everyone a whole bottle of soda -- in reality my friends' parents kept 2 Liter bottles in the fridge which they drank from freely, and it added up to being lot more than one 12 oz bottle a week. We ate desserts but they were mostly homemade ones, which, while having sugar, did not have several paragraphs of chemicals and additives in the ingredients.

When we were older, my dad would buy us each like 2 cases of soda to last the summer. We could pick anything we wanted, but only 24 cans. It was up to you how you budgeted that -- drink it all the first week or ration it out. I was always the one who still had a hoard at the end of the summer. ;)

[Ha.SK]

in response to chia:

i dont know where i stated that i eat healthy foods. i dont. i use to. but now i dont. i thought i stated back on a previous post that im no longer a vegetarian and yes now i eat the quick less expensive foods.

in response to chia:

Right. I'm responding to the idea that it's somehow cheaper to eat junk food and fast food than healthy food. It's not. It may be more expensive to buy organic, but let's be honest, people getting their meals from McDonald's can afford to buy vegetables and fruit. McDonald's costs more per meal than I spend on organic produce per meal.

[locachica73]

my mom canned fruits and vegies when we were little so we always had vegies available. so she does get props I guess for teaching me to love my vegies. But she also taught me horrible eating habits. She always worked nights so we had to fend for ourselves in the mornings, she didn't buy cereal or any of that stuff so never ate breakfast. I still don't eat breakfast, which has stalled my metabolism to nothing and typically only ate once a day. I fainted several times in high school because I was aneamic, fat and aneamic, that doesn't happen often. lol

[chiapet]

lol yeah I sometimes think I had reverse anorexia, I never saw the huge girl in the mirror that looked back at me. And I was huge, I see pictures of myself when I was married, or even from coachella last year and i just never saw that person in the mirror. They say the camera adds 10lbs, but in my case it seemed more like 30.

I have really interesting body dysmorphia where my mental image has not changed even though I have -- but which is consistent despite my changes in both directions, ie, when I was extremely underweight, I thought I was fat, but now that I'm very overweight, I think I'm fat but not as fat as I actually am. I have seen the same image throughout. I'm not sure what to do with that.

[Ha.SK]

theres been i would say a 45% decrease in the amount of money im spending now compared to 3 months ago when i was trying to keep a vegetarian/oraganic diet.

[chiapet]

Eh. My parents always made breakfast, and yet I don't eat it. My mom and dad would not let us out of the house without eating something healthy. Whenever I went to my friends' houses, I would binge on Trix and such. :)

I seriously love veggies though. And recently I've re-discovered that cottage cheese is incredible.

[Ha.SK]

yea i dont eat breakfast either and i know it suppose to be the most important meal of the day but for me that would be coffee.

[Monklish]

The strange thing, Chia, is that not only do you think you're not as fat as you actually are, but in truth you're fatter than you actually are. Reality's a cocktease.

[chiapet]

I think that's what I had just said, Randy. :)

[allyjoy]

I hate breakfast, but I just take a slimrite (generic slimfast) just so I can get the nutrients I would miss by skipping breakfast

[Monklish]

What kind of fucking Communists hate breakfast? Motherfucker have you had waffles recently? Goddamn.

I have, actually, but breakfast is generally not my thing, plus it requires effort I don't want to put in before work/school. And who says I can't have waffles for lunch or dinner?

Breakfast would take away a few minutes of blissful sleep in the morning that I am not willing to give up.

Come on... really?

Congrats HTD, you look great. :)

I will have to find one of my before pics and see what they look like side by side. I haven't changed anything about my diet other than not eating after 6-7 and just being more carefull of what I eat, not because I want to lose weight, just trying to save my stomach any pain.

No. Other, more pressing things to attend to, and not enough monies to go around. So it goes.

If they announce Talking Heads, Bowie or Orbital I'll be crying.

My guy friends have been spending today ogling pictures of chunky girls and making coarse comments and cracking me up. For example:

(NOT naked but... still)

Without her cow pants or whatever the fuck those are, she wouldn't look as chunky. But they're cutting into her thigh fat.

[obzen]

She's good.

[rskapcat]

That outfit is really, really horrifying. What a waste of good boobs.

[guedita]

Seriously, the skimpiness of that outfit makes her look much larger than she probably is.

[Monklish]

I'd ball her. The outfit was clearly made for her 20 pounds ago, though. Still, ball her.

[miscorrections]

Lucky girl to have prodigious boobs and hips but no belly. I wish I could scoop out my belly with a giant melon baller.

[amyzzz]

Yeah. My belly can be a problem. Not so much now, but if I gain weight like I should, it will be. (I can't see the pic however)

[chiapet]

Oh, I wasn't saying she looks bad (I'm sure there is a reason she's dressed like a cow, and I just hope it has nothing to do with furries).

[rskapcat]

My husband walked into the room, saw the picture, said "Cosplay," and walked out.

[MissingPerson]

Cherish him.

[rskapcat]

He is quite awesome. A foxy nerd.

[Drinkey McDrinkerstein]

That girl is considered "chunky?" She has an incredible body (although I suspect photoshop work here, her face especially looks painted over).

That costume is based on this anime thing, if you dare to see

NSFW because of ridiculous cartoon titties

[rskapcat]

I personally think she has a damn-near perfect body, but my opinion on women's bodies is vastly different than a lot of the guys around here.

[miscorrections]

I think she's fairly gorgeous. My ideal lady would be a bit slimmer, but I'm in no position to talk about that.

[rage patton]

Becca, you are not fat.

[rskapcat]

Yeah, I edited the fat bit. It's all relative. :)

[DruggyFestivalGuy]

You broads should post pics of yourselves wearing green and black to celebrate the new colors.

[Monklish]

Becca, you're a little fat, but it's okay.

That girl is built like a brick shithouse. Nothing too objectionable, but goddamn. Let's just say she'd be hard to save from a burning building.

[rage patton]

Here is a question for you ladies: Why do all girls think they're fat?

[Monklish]

Usually because they are.

EDIT: Rage, you asshole, you're opening up the door to a big long diatribe about how society has created unrealistic body expectations blah blah blah, when the truth is everyone should just put the fucking cupcakes down.

[rskapcat]

Well, I know that I'm overweight based on the ideal weight range for my height and whatnot. I can't speak for the thin girls who see themselves as fat.
