OT -- What's the Funniest Pick Up Line You've Heard?
Ok, so ... What's the funniest pick-up line you've ever heard? My most recent one: I was at the pool with my niece (age 4) and a lifeguard about my age (20) asked "So, your daughter is beautiful, is her daddy in the picture?"

grocery shopping tips
Hoping someone could help with my grocery budget. How much do you suppose two people's grocery bill should be? I lived alone for 6 years and only grocery shopped once a month....mostly because the food would last, I would eat at my dad's when it ran out, and also because I HATE grocery shopping. So now that my boyfriend…

I fell victim
To getting comfort from food. :ohwell: I had a really bad day yesterday. I spent a weekend out at the lake (and managed to not go over too badly the whole weekend) and got severely sunburned.

I was so brave
I finally did it! Yesterday I had all four wisdom teeth (my son calls them wismus teeth) pulled, and you were all right, it wasn't nearly as bad as I thought. I will never doubt mfp's again lol!

Question about goals???
I was just wondering how many of you actually meet your weekly weight loss goals. For example if when you were signing up you said you wanted to lose 2lbs per week and stick to the calories and exercise do you actually lose 2lbs a week or not. I ask because I'm kind of a math nerd and like to think about this in terms of…

Gonna try to get back in the habit...
Hey guys! So I have not been on here in about 3 months and it's just killing me! Camp has been so hectic and I just have not had time to get on and keep track.

I have a confession to make.
I may not have been completely faithful to my diet/exercise, and I've been steadily gaining back the weight I lost... *sigh*...

Little Deer
I heard my papa's voice in the back of my mind today, though he's been gone for 5 years, urging me to run faster... "Go, Little Deer (his name for me), go!!" I pushed myself through the wall I'd hit, triumphantly shouting "on your left!" to the group of the slender Barbies I'd been trailing the whole way as I left them in…

Great quote!
I subscribe to a weekly quote from the Franklin Covey website, and I thought that this week's quote was fantastic! "The true purpose of recreation should be not merely to amuse, not merely to afford pleasure, not merely to 'kill time,' but to increase our fitness, enhance our usefulness, spur achievement. Any form of…

We can continue to do this throughout the week, and then next Tuesday start a "Twenty Somethings Week 2" Thread. Sound good? I'll check back in a bit with my weight and…
