Bad news, but now I know why he has been acting the way he's
I hate to dump this on you all, but I found out tonight that my husband is having an affair. THE WOMAN SHOWED UP AT MY HOUSE!!!!!!!!!! *not too bright of him to tell her to come over* She asked if he was there, and I asked her who she was. She said that they'd been seeing each other for almost ten months:noway: and that…

I've Been Sick... AND INACTIVE! Will This Set Me Back!?!?!?!
Hi everyone. Those who are used to my constant questions will see that, yes, I am still around. The children and I have been sick, and my exercise (walking, bouncing on my rebounder, etc...) has taken a nosedive. I've done little to nothing but chase after my eight children this last week. I've still been watching…

Preferred treadmills
HELP!!!! Ok...this is to all of you true runners. My husband and I had a Horizon Treadmill bought from a local sporting goods store. It lasted 4 years and for as much as we run, we felt that was a pretty good life span. However, when the service technician came out to quote me a repair cost he said the machine isn't worth…

How did I only eat 800 calories?
Okay, I'll admit it, I'm not feeling my best, which leads to eating less. But how do I go from eating up to 2400 calories one day without breaking a sweat, and then having to work to break 1000 the next? I'm on this site to help me with overeating, not undereating.

Health Magazines
My boyfriend and I are both interested in subscribing to health/fitness magazines. I have had Self in the past and it was ok, but I would prefer to try something new. I'm thinking about Women's Health. Does anyone have opinions about it? Also, for you men, is Men's Health good, or is there a better one? My bf is already in…

Workout ball
OK... Per a suggestion from a post a couple weeks ago, I purchased one of those workout balls to keep at work - sit on at my desk.... Is there any particular way I should be sitting on it? By the way - my boss thinks I'm a complete dork!

The March of Dimes Walk for Babies is this weekend in NJ. I will be walking 5 miles while pushing my daughter in a stroller. I am excited because it is for a great cause, however I can not remember the last time I walked so far. I am some what nervous about this situation, but I will take my time and get through it,…

Did you know...
DID YOU KNOW? Peel a banana from the bottom and you won't have to pick the little 'stringy things' off of it. That's how the primates do it. Take your bananas apart when you get home from the store. If you leave them connected at the stem, they ripen faster. Store your opened chunks of cheese in aluminum foil. It will stay…

I cut 200 calories off my favorite splurge.
When I go grocery shopping for the week, I usually splurge with the rotisserie chicken salad from the deli. Its very creamy so I know its probably crazy high in calories. They don't give nutritional information (wonder why? :smile: )but since straight mayo would be 400 for half a cup I know I'm at least under that because…

Lame Friends
I started MFP on January 31st and went from 145-136.5 pounds. This is an accomplishment for me but the first thing my best friend said to me today was "you should have lost more weight." I believe she's upset because she can't get to the gym herself due to work, car payments, and credit card bills. She has about 20k in…

Lame.
If anyone knows me, they know i'm obsessed with Subway. I freakin' love Subway. I could live off of their sandwiches for the rest of my life and be happy and content. Okay, so now you get the point. And mamma doesn't just eat a six inch either, I scarf down a footlong and feel no guilt. :bigsmile: When their $5 promotion…

Great tool!
I found this while searching for BMI and Maintenance Calorie calculators. It is a pretty simply, fool-proof way to understand how many calories you should be aiming for, whether it be to maintain, for fat loss and extreme fat loss. http://www.freedieting.com/tools/calorie_calculator.htm#

Something new
So all I drink is water, and lately just kind of getting bored of it, so I heard about putting a couple of slices of cucumber in the water. OHH so good, taste very fresh and a hint of cucumber makes it a little different. Not so bored now! :smile:

Frustrated w/family members...

I am the oldest child and grandchild on both sides. I come from a very very poor family. I am the first in my family to "get-away". I was the 1st to graduate…
