Don't forget the bump
for all you newer members, don't forget, if you like a post, or think others might enjoy it, bump it so that it stays up high on the list. (For anyone that doesn't know, "bump"ing is just adding a new reply so the post goes back to the top) Like this one :wink: LoL, Yes, I admit it, I'm shameless! -banks the "Bump-o-matic"

I was at the grocery store today, and I was getting my kids out of the car..and some woman said, "Isn't it time you acted like a parent and got rid of the "hot rod"? I was flabbergasted...since when does the type of car you drive (1969 Pontiac GTO, and I:heart: my car) make you a better parent? I wanted to tell her off,…

I am that mom.....
I can imagine that we have all been shopping at one point or another, and come across the family with the screaming child.

I am going to ask you to perhaps step outside your little bubble and consider that…

The dangers of Fad Diets
Quick-fix weight loss programs are everywhere these days. They claim to produce easy weight loss and immediate health benefits. While losing weight will better the health of an overweight individual, these diets often produce more health problems than they cure. Some are yo-yo diets where you put the weight back on as soon…

My husband is a bad influence!
So I did really well yesterday and today, but when I got home tonight he decided he reeeally wanted ice cream.

Dieters looking for another edge might want to consider exercising their sense of humor -- scientists have found that a good laugh is a calorie burner not to be ignored. It may not be as good for reducing the waistline as going to the gym or resisting that ice-cream sundae, but American researchers have found that 10-15…

Is there a quick way to record salads on your meal tracker?
I've only been on MFP for a week and I was wondering if there is an easy way to add salads (or other meals for that matter) that I haven't discovered. Right now if I have a salad, I enter the greens on one line...then add tomatoes...then each additional ingredient as I go. Same for my home made sandwiches and dinners. Is…

Annoyed..
The other day I went to Costco and as I was leaving I saw a family having their lunch. I'm assuming it was a grand-mother, daughter and maybe a 7 or 8 month old little girl. I don't normally judge people but these 2 adult women were very obese. My issue is that they were feeding this beautiful little baby girl french fries…

I'm loving MFP!
I started a couple of weeks ago and I am loving MFP! While I realize that we are responsible for fueling our bodies with healthy foods and that our calorie allotments are a license to eat 1,400 (or whatever your amount is) worthy of junk, it is nice to realize that occasionally it is okay to plan to have a treat without…
