For my reward...
If I can maintain a healthy lifestyle, and keep myself fit and upbeat, I think I deserve a reward. I'd really like a tattoo with two of my favorite kanji characters (I speak Japanese). But I want it on my hip (right below the bikini line, basically, on my tummy) and I have questions to anyone who has one there. How badly…

It has been awhile since I have posted!
I am starting back with MFP again. I really never meant to quit. I found out that I had cervical cancer about a month ago. I completely stopped logging. I was really suprised about the fact that even though I stopped logging I was still aware of what I what I was eating. I have to admit the stress of everything made me…

Losing weight to fast?
Okay so I start on May 19 and I'm down 25 lbs. I'm exercising regularly (not constantly) and I eat all my calories, give or take. I just want to make sure this is okay- since it's averaging about 3-3.5lbs per week. I just don't want my body to shut down (even though i AM getting all my calories) or when I get to my goal…

Do you think a preteen shouldn't try to stay healthy?
So many adults underestimate kids and teens and think they should shut up and eat their ravioli. I for one think us preteens should be able to exercise and portion our food. It's not like I'm anorexic. What is your opinion?:flowerforyou:

How can I lose weight faster?
I've lost 4lbs in 6days. Is that a good rate? How can I speed up rate of losing weight or would that just be unhealthy and I should let my body do what it does? Will I keep losing weight (I need 9 more lbs to go by Sept.) if I walk 2.5mph for at least 45mins a day and eat up to two snacks and also eat 1000calories a day…

George Carlin on Aging...(AMAZING!)
George Carlin's Views on Aging Do you realize that the only time in our lives when we like to get old is when we're kids? If you're less than 10 years old, you're so excited about aging that you think in fractions. 'How old are you?' 'I'm four and a half!' You're never thirty-six and a half. You're four and a half, going…

size and spacing of meals
Hi, I recently heard that breakfast should be your largest meal of the day, lunch second biggest, and dinner the smallest. Mine usually end up just the opposite, but I'm wondering what you all think. To all you big losers out there - how do you structure your meals and which are the biggest? Do you stick to 3 meals a day,…

Ok fine!
I'm back! I tried to go it alone without mfp, but it didn't work. Well, it worked until we decided to buy a house, and got all stressed out, and stopped exercising, and started eating a lot of fast food on the run. I'm back where I started in April @ 147. My low in June was 141, halfway to my goal. Let's try this again!…

Yes, I know many here have gone so long without losing anything but I've been losing so steady since I've started--about 3.5 pounds a week--and now NOTHING! And, believe me, I know all the reasons it could be: --not fluid: sure of that --not…
