    Vegan Slimmer - 60lb journey

    Hi - hope you don't mind me following this thread. I'm vegan too, and back at SW yet again - always good to try and pick up some inspiration on here (didn't even know it was back until today!) as everyone in my group is very meat focused....

    I've taken a while to respond, mostly because I've not reached a decision as to where the hell I'd start without graphically spilling my guts everywhere. I also apologise now I'd this comes off as introspective rubbish. I'm nearly 30, people laugh it off as its still 18 months off, but to me...

    Food after a tattoo..

    Coke, of course! Yeah, I think sweet drinks and cereal bars may be the way forward, starting off with a hefty breakfast. The studio is also an hours drive away, so i may have to load the car with food. How long did your leg take, what did you have done? My sleeve will be mostly floral, I've...

    Food after a tattoo..

    Hi ally, I know this is a super old thread, but I was searching through for some tattoo experiences and food, this popped up. How did you get on with it? I have tattoos but nothing serious that lasted for any more than 90 minutes, I have my first sleeve session booked october which is six hours...

    Does anyone else really self-sabotage??

    Yeah, the money (ouch) however, it was kind of two birds one stone deal, because I've had to budget so all the wasted money of food/alcohol splurges have had to be cut down, I didn't realise how much extra cash I was spending on food, frightening! Yeah, I can't deprive him if he wants crappy...

    Does anyone else really self-sabotage??

    The vicious cycle with food "rewards" just don't work for me - at all - although I kid myself at the time I want them, and then meet the familiar regret/anger because suddenly I've eaten my body weight in, well, anything really. I've been planning on sleeve tattoos for about 5 years, but...

    What makes a good group?

    ZenDog, I know what you mean. The group I'm with now are really friendly, but the fact I tend to be quite insular around people I don't know definitely makes me more over analytical of the groups reaction to me. I think it's probably linked to the whole insecurities that weight issues bring...

    Does anyone else really self-sabotage??

    Erryn - I think the point you make about what the actual problem may be once the weight is lost and the focus shifted, is really interesting. Personally, I'm an emotional eater. A few years ago during a pretty rough patch I managed to gain about 3 stone in 12 months, and I was already...

    Ruby, Jo is completely right, comparing your losses to your group is just torture, although we all do it. Just stick with it, I personally have to wait a couple weeks to see any payoff, but eventually you look back and a couple months have flown and you've lost weight. Just see it as a long...

    The new Deftones record is a grower, theres a couple tracks that sort of slice your belly open, but I think the rest of it blends real well together and it works as one if those sort of mood albums.
