touch screen MP3 players?
My 13 yr old wants an ipod touch for Christmas and I don't really want to drop $200+ on one as every other MP3 player she's had ended up destroyed in a few months. I've noticed quite a few other brands of touch screen music players that are a lot cheaper, does anyone have one or know of one that is truly a good one? A…

UK Snow question
O.K so its been snowing since Monday night here in Birmingham UK,and as a nation we are not used to the white stuff, and we have no idea how to cope with it. So I was hoping MFPers from colder places that have regular snow could help with a few things: 1) Does walking in the snow burn more calories than normal? 2) how many…

Need non-fitness help.... :( But holiday help?
Well if it has something to do with fitness that could be cool. Anyways, every year I absolutely dispise Christmas. This is my least favorite holiday. Part of it is because I never have enough money to get the people that I love what I really want to. I have tried my hardest to become more accepting of it because I do have…

Does everybody try to go for 2 lbs a week?!

Strange meals
I'm a bit of a fitness nut and I know it. I think of food as fuel and try to get the right combination of nutrients when I need it without caring about creating a traditional meal. I've thrown together some strange combinations over the years that make people laugh. I snack on vegetables and fruits throughout the day so…

To have a birthday party, or to not have a birthday party...
I'm turning 33 in a couple weeks and I was debating on whether or not I should have a little celebration for myself. I know it sounds sad that I would throw something for myself and that I don't have anyone to put together something for me, but my schedule is really amorphous and my friends know that so they don't even…

Haircut Trauma
I went to a stylist last week before the holidays. I wanted to get a haircut for an interview this week and wanted that out of the way. Now I'm not real particular about my hair. I like it just over my ears and out of my eyes. That simple. The stylist and I must have not connected. My hair looks like a worn out broom if…

Healthier Christmas Goodies
I typically bake a variety of cookies and package them up nicely as my gift for family and friends each year for Christmas. This year I'd like to go in a healthier direction. I mean, it's kind of hypocritical to give someone something that I wouldn't want them to give me. And why not show my loved ones that eating…

What to do on a snow day?
I'm one of these people that can't really 'do nothing', if I have an unexpected day off work (like tommorow) I start to panic because I easily get cabin fever and get bored very easily. OH works from home during the day, but already we've said we'll build a snowman and go on a 'snowy walk' hehe! I'm also planning on…

Obese children bullying?
Just thought this might be an interesting conversation... It seems that more and more thin children are becoming the target of bullying by obese children. I was at Thanksgiving dinner and I have two cousins, Alyssa who is thin, and Cheyenne who is overweight. It seemed Cheyenne had a very hateful attitude towards alyssa…

Question that has nothing to do with diet
So for my boyfriends birthday I bought us tickets to go see the blue man group. Niether one of us has ever seen them. This is probably a silly question..but do people usually get a little dressed up when they go to shows like this? I've never been to a play or anything so I have no clue!

What gift do you want?
I saw a thread on here asking people's wish lists for Christmas, but they were fitness themed. I figured I'd see what people are wanting of any category. (I admit, I may have slightly selfish reasons. I'm trying to compose my own list for people and am stumped for ideas) :)
