anyone have any ideas about how to stop waking up 5-6 times a night? I don't have trouble falling asleep, just staying asleep. I have tried gaba, valerian, benadryl, nyquil, yoga, meditation, warm baths, herbal tea, ambien, and lunesta. I don't eat anything before bed, and if I do it is a small amount of fruit or veggies.…

Question for the (much) older crowd here
Nasty disclaimer before I ask this: If you're younger than I am, please don't tell me your thoughts on getting older. kthxbai. I try to get better every day with how I react to people and more importantly how I act upon those feelings. I still find myself in the "live and let die" camp on a lot of issues. I find it really…

Panda Express or Pei-Wei?
I've been a Panda Express advocate for well over four years. I recently stumbled upon Pei-Wei, and I'm not understanding why anyone ever compares the two. From visiting over 10 locations in Chicago, and 5 in Dallas, I'd have to say the quality of food at Panda Express is much higher than Pei-Wei. Namely the Orange Chicken.…

Is there anyone here who isn't/wasn't a "sad" fat person?
I know that most people (including myself) are here to lose weight and obviously there's nothing wrong with that.

Friendly Neighborhood Tip
If you see someone say something that you think is crazy, take a look at their post count. The higher the number of posts, the more likely that they are just f***ing with your n00b-a** question.

Water purification through natural water source?
I taken up hiking and was looking around for hydration solutions. While it's great to have a camelbak or tons of water bottles, has anyone ever used water bottles with the filtration attached to the cap? Or the water tablets? I'm kind of skeptic if you're in the middle of a hill and grab the water from the river. I seen…
