I ate pizza last night, but only one slice, which considering the deliciousness of the corn I had before the pizza, that is really some self-control! I stress pigged out on the way back up to school but aside from that and the one slice of pizza I've been eating really healthy! That's hard to do when surrounded by your roommate's junk food!
one piece?? thats totally the way to do it, like i said.... the key is not to deprive yourself... i've also been partaking in the most delicious corn i've had in months...
It's weird, I actually lose weight at college. It's probably because I have less time to just gorge myself, and I'm not constantly walking through a kitchen. My only weakness is the vending machine; we're drinking buddies. They make it way to easy - just swipe the card and voila - junk food galore.

This post makes me excited for my girlfriend to go back to school. Yay for vending machines! ;D But don't beat yourself up over one meal, you'll live. And if you're on a low carb diet a cheat meal will help a lot actually.
So apparently getting your heart stomped on is a great diet. Just realized I haven't eaten in 24 hours.
Oh no!!!! You're not alone. i got my heart crushed this week too, but instead of not eating, I'm drinking ALOT. Just got home from happy hour and waiting on my roommate to get home to head to the bar. It sucks. Instead of wallowing, let's support and motivate each other
I'm sorry you were hurt, too, Clairity. I feel horrible. Almost all day I was like an injured animal... just curled up, hurting and afraid. I know it could get better in time but I don't want it to, I just want to go back.
Sorry this is a threadjack but I am just so sad... I didn't realize it was going to hurt this bad... I wish drinking would make it better, I just know its gonna make me more depressed. Once I remembered how to eat, food has really done the trick. Pizza and ice cream are my best friends right now, and I couldn't care less about what its going to do to my body at this point.
I did get out, though, and walked around downtown with some friends. It got my mind off of it slightly but the second I got back in the car I felt like poop again. This whole town reminds me of him... I need to get away.

Here Comes The Sun,
Sorry to hear about this. You sound like a fun lady, and pictures let us know that you are cute, so regardless of what has happened, things will eventually work out.
I had an old GF apologize to me a couple years ago for being a bit** back in late 1980's. I was a mess at the time, actually I was a hazard to society at that moment. Luckily I did not run anyone over with my car (though I tried).
Relationships are such a pain. Thankfully I am nearly 19 years in a marriage to someone that is able to put up with my quirks. Start of the school year was always stressful, negative and positive. As my 16 year old recently said, there always are new hot chicks each year. Someone out there will look at you in this light.

wow it really has been a week for heart break. try to get out of the house like suggested - and keep your friends near you. if you get totally freaked - get on here and read some old posts - some of the old ones in the 'sex at roo" thread are really funny.
^^I don't even know where those places are haha, but when I'm in TN (where I grew up) I'm in the Nashville area, and when I'm in MO I'm in Columbia, which is halfway between St. Louis and Kansas City.
Thanks for all the encouragement everyone... its getting a little better. And on topic of this thread, I ate some real food for the first time last night (and took a shower) and that really helped. I guess that whole thing about taking care of yourself is true.

oh ok here comes. you are from tn AND miss not both. there are two tiny towns on the boarder between missouri and tn and most people dont even know that the border is there - so i just wondered if thats where you hail from
The other day at work, one of my reg. customers told me I needed to gain weight. It really pissed me off and hurt my feelings. I can't help it. I try to gain weight. I get sick of ppl always commenting on how skinny I am. I eat alot. Everyday. Probably not the most healthy stuff, but still. I have always been little. I have a high meatabolism. It just makes me feel bad about myself when ppl commnet about my weight. They don't know my life outside of that store. Why feel the need to say something. I don't make comments about other ppl's weight. It's really none of my business......
^Have dealt with that my entire life, so I feel your pain. Learn to smile and realize that 99.9% of the world would give anything to have our problem .

I just recently started to have enough cash flow again to get grocerys after a few months of living on the super cheap and I am so fucking excited to start lifting again! All those months i've just been planning the perfect blast, so hopefully I gain back all my size within two months. So excited! Not girly fitness, but ignore the girly and its totally thread appropriate. ;D
I finally stepped on a scale this morning because someone asked me yesterday if I had lost weight and I sort was shrugged and said "Dunno." Well, I have one of those analog type scales that you actually have to think to read and I almost couldn't read it because it's been about a year and half since it was that low! The good news is that I've lost it since I got my appetite back. It was like my body freaked out for a couple of weeks and now it's finally working the way it should. The bad news is that I just went shopping and now the stuff I bought is already a little too big. No more shopping for me for a while, then.
Hey drowens, your clothes being too big feels better than too small! At least for most of us Congrats on the weight loss. I've "altered" my wardrobe with safety pins, layering (to make baggy tops less sloppy looking) and waist cinching belts with all my dresses and longer tops.
I couldn't really understand from your post, though, if you had lost weight because you wanted to or because you had lost your appetite, or both... so I hope you are feeling better & that you are healthy!
I'm enjoying a nonfat iced chai latte and patting myself on the back for making such a swift breakup recovery, with only two pizzas & less than a dozen cookies involved, and only a moderate amount of self pity. Now don't ask me how many cigarettes I went through....
^Well, that's good HCS. Glad to see that you are starting to feel better already.
I think that I've been doing pretty well with the whole eating healthier and exercising more. I've gotten my whole family to watch what they eat (since we often have dinner together) and I must say that I am quite pleased with how our meals have been going. Last night we had salad... And then, yestersday, I went for a jog/walk at the park. Went around the track 2 1/2 times...and that makes about 3 miles, I think. And, I don't know how strenuous of a workout this is, but I joined a frisbee golf club. So, at least I'll be being active, metting new people, and enjoying the park all at the same time. I haven't stepped on a scale lately (because when I do, I become kind of obsessed with weighing myself, which is not a good haibt at all), but I do enjoy the fact that I feel that I'm getting even more in shape and healthier.
I didn't lose any weight when I lost my appetite and it started melting off when I began eating again, so eating is good! lol And I would much rather my clothes FIT than be anything bigger or smaller, especially when I spent lots of money on them! The recovery must have been swift indeed! I've never seen it happen for less than two pizzas, six pints of ice cream, a sleeve or two of Oreos, and lots of beer! I'm glad it didn't linger!

Admittedly, I haven't read this whole thread (frankly it's too depressing for me since the only exercize I have time for is running), but I'm thinking hooping might be the greatest exercise ever.
This girl had *MAD* skills. And I don't care if I get smote for saying--Paramour makes me want to get down:
Watchin' a stretch of road, miles of light explode. Driftin' off a thing I'd never done before. Watchin' a crowd roll in. Out go the lights it begins. A feelin' in my bones I've never felt before...

Hello ladies! I've been a lurker on this thread for a long time but I figured that it's now or never to start getting healthy again.
Up until about six months ago I ran every day, but after breaking my foot WHILE RUNNING, I've gotten lazy. Even though my foot is better, I'm still so depressed about not being able to run as much as I used to that I can't motivate myself to get back out there. I'm hoping for a little support from you all!
My goal is to lose 20lbs before Roo '09 and to be able to sport the oh-so prevalent bikini top to show off my new belly button piercing. Any tips out there?

dancing...try hotyoga!(bikram) you will loose like nobodys business clarity...and others...what do you make of the hooping as an overall fitness technique?
Hooping is great! You have to work it though. If you just let the hoop slowly slide around your waste, it's not going to do a whole lot. But if you get down, you can definately feel it the next day. It's great for your core and good cardio
