shrinkingwolf asked: If you want it to be health/fitness related you could always do something with Road ID. Or if you don't want to limit it you could give a few options for the winner to pick from. Like gift cards to a couple different athletic stores or Road ID or the notebook or cookbook, etc. You would just simply make the purchase after the winner picks the prize. Puts less stress on you trying to pick the...

withloveminusthehandles asked: Go for a Visa giftcard. Amazon giftcards are my favorite though. I bought all my new workout gear with one.
avril-incandenza asked: I'm a barista at Starbucks. all of the teas have an unsweetened option, and they're zero calories at any size if they're unsweetened. just wanted to let you know.
Anonymous asked: Good ideas for giveaway are gift cards. I'm saying this because they are in your price budget, and also many people like them so you can't really go wrong!
Anonymous asked: It for a unsweetended, not a reguluar from Starbucks. Jus' sayin' not hatin'.

Why weight loss isn't linear →
theskinnycode:
You’ve heard the old formula: cut 500 calories a day and in a week (7 x 500) you’ll have lost a pound (3,500 calories). Sounds simple and you may have tried it. Did you find that while it may have worked at the onset, it lost it’s juice over time.
Well, you’re not alone. That formula doesn’t work!
According to new research, weight loss doesn’t follow this linear path we’ve all...

Thanks for clicking!
Wow guys, I can’t believe I actually earned $1.36 today from that ad bar I added to the side of this blog! That means you lovely ladies and gents actually clicked. <3 Thank you so much. As I mentioned, this is my only income. If I make just a little more than this amount tomorrow, I’ll have enough to buy those 2 for $3 raspberries at Ralph’s! So in a way, you clicking helps to...

I figured out why I was so hungry!
I wasn’t having enough protein! Spluh! I had a lot of fruit today, which is awesome, but, as many of you know, I’m protein deficient. All I had that was real proteiny today was a hardboiled egg and a cheese stick. Protein keeps you full longer! So I started making some mac & cheese (a rare treat. It’s been ages.), and I thought, “Hm, what if I dump my can of tuna in...

This is insane!
Haven’t even made it home for dinner yet, and I’ve already eaten all my calories for the day. And I’m still hungry! I even did all the hunger tests. Chug water, consider the most disgusting thing you’d eat… still want food. What is going on with me?! Should I be worried??

During the MTV VMA’s last night, Jonah Hill took comedic aim at critics who claim that along with the pounds, he may have lost his sense of humor.
Jonah Hill and Nicki Minaj shared several awkward moments during their presentation of the best pop video award at the MTV Video Music Awards Sunday.
Excerpt: CBS news
Their conversation focused on Hill’s recent weight loss and...

lisimoomoo answered your question: Do you think we are hungrier some days than others?
Well, I know that during menstruation, your metabolism is more active and your caloric needs change (they say like 200-400) idk if that helps
It’s a thought, but it would only make sense next week. lol Good suggestion, though!

changetoloveme answered your question: Do you think we are hungrier some days than others?
i think so. I mean, if you’re working out a lot lately, I feel like I always get a little hungrier.
You know, that makes a lot of sense. I did do 90 minutes of walking yesterday evening. :)

Do you think we are hungrier some days than...
Should I give in to the hunger or is it something to be ignored? I really am unsure of this one today.
(For non-followers reading this, I’m not anorexic. I’m just hungrier than normal on my diet today.)

No-Weigh Coincidence Challenge: Results
So for those of you who were following me last month. you may recall that to honor the coincidence of my number of followers matching my weight at the time, I took on a challenge: no scale for 1 month. Well, that 1 month was up this morning. I weighed in.
I actually lost 4lbs!
I was so certain i went up; I’ve been feeling really heavy. But I still stuck with my diet plan, and it...

And it was almost 9 months ago that I was that girl. I am no longer her. I am happy when I look in the mirror. Not only because I have lost weight. That is only a mere symptom of the real underlying problem. I have done loads of work to figure out how I let it happen in the first place. Why…
Still so inspirational. <3

RE: HELP
skinnyftw-ox:
So, I eat..
breakfast
snack
lunch
snack
dinner
At what time should I eat these meals? As I’m eating my first snack, and it’s nearly one o’clock. Does it matter if I eat lunch around 1.30 or 2.00? Should I have eaten my snack before this? I started eating my snack an hour ago, but I’m trying to eat it slow, to make me full? My snacks apple and yoghurt by the way, haha :)

Let's talk about B&As
Ladies (and some gents), all of us want to one of those super-reblogged Before and After photo sets. But there are some things that I keep seeing that need some noting.
1. There is no reason your tits need to be free-range. We can tell the difference from one photo to the next with your top still on. Stop feeling the need to break out the ladies, even if you are covering them with your hands....
