Really ticked off--no Survivor!
My local CBS station is not showing the Survivor finale!! There's some storms moving through--heavy rain--and all they're doing is having "live reports" of the rain and showing radar. AAAGGHGGGGGHHHHH-- Must have Survivor--must see show! Anyone watching it that can give updates?

After getting lots of great input online last night and doing a little research of my own, I ordered the Chow Har Kew. Shrimp with assorted vegetables in a white sauce. I asked for the meal to be steamed instead of fried and for the…

What do you all wear when working out?? I tend to wear sweat pants and a men's white cotton t-shirt! Oh and my Nike baseball cap! Kinda boring I suppose but it works!! And it's comfortable. Hmm, maybe I should vamp it up a little huh?? Also, something funny happened a couple of weeks ago. I had these capri type yoga/sweat…

I have been thinking!
I am a teller for a credit union. I sit most of the day but get up and move a little. I was wondering. Obviously I am perfectly capable of standing up instead of using my chair. I guess it has become habit. I wonder how much of a difference it would make if I just stood all day. If you remember when you started your…

Hungier the next day
I am fairly new to MFP and I've been working really hard at being accurate with all of my recordings. I have read all of the newbie stuff and I think that I have a pretty good grasp on everything I should be doing. For someone that is overweight with more than a few extra pounds after pregnancy I had been under eating. So…

What do you do about clothes?
Okay, so now that I'm losing pretty normally (I've lost 16 pounds since I've started. Woo-hoo!), I am wondering how I am going to buy clothes to fit me all the way down to my goal weight. My husband and mom bought me a whole wardrobe in my goal weight size, and I (thankfully) hoarded my favorite pair of pre-preggo jeans,…
