    Confession: I keep telling my 4-year old that all the cars and trucks with Transformers stickers are either Autobots or Decepticons and actually transform into giant robots to fight each other. He's starting to give those cars a wide berth when we walk by. Sometimes I'm an evil dad.

    Now I'm sad there aren't more cars around us with those stickers. Our neighbors tend to go the stick figure family route or the truck nads. *sigh*

    I totally judge people with truck nads. Crude rednecks.

    @quiksylver296‌ I find them disgusting and 100% unnecessary. Why does your truck (mostly likely lifted) need testicles?! Are you compensating for something, little man?
    I belong to a Fiat 500 forum and love the bumper sticker I saw there that says "I drive a tiny car to compensate for my giant p e n i s".

    Oh, I don't do it for anybody else--it would bother ME if I didn't shave my legs. I only need to do it twice a week or so to keep up.

    Between swimming a couple of times a week, doing dance fitness in capris about three times a week, dance practicas in capris, and wearing dresses, I guess I am bare-legged a lot, even in Winter.

    I also do it for me. All year round, whether I'm seeing someone or single. I'd feel gross if I didn't do any hair maintenance all Winter. Is it just legs people let go or is everything left to grow wild?

    I'm single so I can get pretty lazy when it comes to hair removal. I do usually shave once a week, but if there's a week where I don't have a training session I'll leave it up to two weeks. That's my limit though.

    Confession 1: I don't eat healthy! There I said it. I have a friend who dropped 100 pounds last year and I'm very proud of him. I assumed he was eating healthy and exercising. Nope. He confided in me that he still eats like *kitten*, but just...less of it. I was so amazed that one could do this. I had always thought to lose weight it was salads and bland baked chicken and brussles sprouts for life, but then I decided I could try to lose weight if I could do it that way. I'd tried the healthy eating approach before and always fell off the wagon. Now I still eat my favorite foods, but in small portions and drink water instead of calorie-costing drinks. I've lost eight in the month or so I've been on this track. It's awesome.

    Confession 2: Because of confession number one I get a little irritated when I see or hear people saying that since they've started eating healthy the foods we used to eat together (and now only I eat) make them sick and that they think they are disgusting. I mean, your opinion is your own, feel what you like about whatever, but don't talk down to me just because you've "transcended" the things I still love. You used to eat them too, so get off that high horse. XD

    Confession 3: I really really miss beer...I wish I saved up more calories for my nightly beer. My husband home-brews so we always have such good beer on tap at home, but I rarely get to drink it without cheating. ='(

    1st bold: Awesome! Good for you! I wish you continued success.
    2nd bold: I can no longer handle lots of foods that I used to eat, including fast food and lots of prepared items, BUT I would never tell anyone else eating those things that they are disgusting! You're right: people like that ARE on their high horse and are probably trying to convince themselves more than they are you. That is rude.

    Confession #1: I've been shaving and lotioning my legs more often because of acupuncture.

    Confession #2: I'm happy my friends confide in me and come to me with their problems but I'm starting to become emotionally drained from them.

    Confession #3: I'm terrified that I won't be able to hold my own during the half marathon I am training for...

    Confession: I'm sitting in the bathtub eating a Fibre One lemon bar. I may or may not shave my legs (I will).
    Wait! Wrong thread! Did I cross the streams? Will the universe end?

    You are my hero.

    Off topic, but your profile pic cracks me up :).

    I paid no attention to the pic for the longest time and for some reason thought it was a sheep. I only noticed it was a dog when I was about to write a post asking why they had a sheep for an avatar.

    Ah, yes. Story: I was sitting on the couch, eating watermelon, and my dog desperately wanted a piece. She squeezed her face between my knees. I took a picture before I fell over laughing.

    It's my picture because it seems to attract less creepers.

    I love your avatar as well and it's even better knowing the back story! Watermelon. Silly doggies.

    Me too. I won't judge anything people say in this thread, but if they have bollocks on their trucks in real life, I'm definitely judging.

    My husband used to work for a guy who had a huge stick up his butt. This guy just... was like Michael Scott from The Office, but not funny or endearing. Just wildly out of touch and so uncomfortable. Also was extremely conservative. I really, really, really wanted to put truck nuts on his sedan as a prank. I could never talk my husband into it, though.

    As usual I'm late to the party.

    #1 I almost forgot my 16th wedding anniversary last week. In my defense I know what day it is, I just didn't know the date until I got a message from my mom wishing me a happy anniversary. I rarely look at a calendar. I don't feel to guilty because hubby also forgot.

    #2 I do way to much cardio and I don't log it all. In my defense my life is extremely stressful right now and it's exercise or drink (a lot).

    #3 about a month ago I was in a Fitbit challenge with someone who was being a total jerk, they would also post in the challenge about doing a extra walk just to stay in first place, but on MFP they were logging bike rides. So I tossed my fit bit in the dryer on fluff just so I could beat them...

    lmao

    I shaved my legs for the first time in nearly a month last week because I was going to see my physio, and she makes me take my jeans off for pressure point release. I'd just been hiding in long capris and tights since February. #joysofbeingsingle

    Confession: I used running a 10K on Saturday as an excuse to eat Hot Cheetos and a Reese's egg for lunch. Then I had pizza for dinner. Think I totally killed that calorie burn...

    I did the same thing but with Crapplebee's food. Not only did I blow through my calorie burn, but I also ended up eating just shy of maintenance for the day.

    Confession: I actually like Crapplebee's. I know I can get a 500 calorie meal (and that usually leaves room for a long island iced tea in my daily calorie count.)

    I also love Crapplebee's 550 calories meals. I know that people say that they have too much sodium but I've never had as many issues with them as with some other restaurants, go figure.

    Confession - it's gorgeous out and I should really go for a walk but I had a great 40 minutes workout this morning so I'm going to use it as an excuse to stay home, enjoy the quiet while the kids are at school, and read my book (if I ever manage to get myself away from MFP, that is). And I will probably go for a walk after dinner while my husband keeps an eye on the kids instead.

    Isn't it funny how much mfp can reduce your productivity? Yeah, in 60 days I've lost 20lbs and now am 10x more active than before, but I also spend an embarrassing amount of time on here.

    The only reason I shave for training is because sometimes we do things like assisted chin-ups where the trainer has to give me a boost and I don't want her to have to feel my stubbly/hairy legs. When I went to physio last year & had training I was kind of annoyed because I was like "I have to shave twice this week?!"

    Other confession: I LOVE to write. I'm not good or anything, but it's something I've done since I was a teen and I do it for me. My boss is away this week, and I have hardly anything to do, so I brought my notebook with me to write. So it's like I'm getting paid to write :D (in my defense I talked to her about my lack of work so she's going to be getting stuff together for me, but it won't be until next week at the earliest)

    Confession: I spent way too much time catching up on what I've missed in this thread since Friday.

    Two things stand out
    1. I'm glad I don't have to shave very often, even in Summer. (Thank you genetics and my Native American Grandmother!)
    2. I love a good beer, but dang @tincanonastring! That must have been some GOOD beer!
    I spent $107 on 12 beers today.

    I was at the St Patty's day parade on Saturday, and as the LGBT float went by, I thought to myself, why hasn't someone of the LGBT community glossed themselves Optimus Pride yet, it'd be an awesome handle.

    It takes all of the restraint I have to hold my tongue as the clerks that sit outside my office at a site I'm working on temporarily discuss their "diet".

    #1 - You would both be better off if you quit smoking first.
    #2 - Why eat yourself silly on Friday "cheat day" and starve and restrict all the things you like to eat the other 6 days? Its counterproductive.

    I'm not a fan either, but I think they are supposed to be a fundraiser for testicular cancer.

    Confession #2: I'm happy my friends confide in me and come to me with their problems but I'm starting to become emotionally drained from them.

    You know what's super frustrating? When you give good sound advice because you're on the outside looking in and they keep repeating the same destructive behavior over and over again and then wonder why their life is so full of stress and drama.

    I have found myself distancing myself from these people because I don't want their S#!t spilling over into my life. I have my own things to worry about.

    I really thought that a frequent poster here was in his 50s based on his picture...turns out he's in his 20s. This is someone who is adamantly anti-exercise.

    Yeah, tell me that working out doesn't matter!

    I confess that doing the spring leg shave is on my to do list this weekend.

    I suspect that you are not alone.

    It would drive me nuts not to shave all Winter, but I hear a lot of women say that they don't.

    I swim and dance, so my legs are always shaved and my toenails are always painted. Confession: my toes are currently a sparkly aquamarine.

    Same here! I see my legs and toes all year. I like them to look good. Cannot stand to be unshaven.

    I also shave all year round. If I go more than three days without, I feel gross.

    I don't understand the craze around Gitl Scout Cookies, I've tried a couple different types and think they are gross! Even my kids won't eat them. It drives me insane that my husband buys them from his coworkers and brings them home where they sit on the shelf in the pantry for months before I end up tossing them in the trash. I always end up feeling mean when the girls are trying to sell them outside the store and I won't buy any, but unlike my hubby I refuse to buy food I'm just going to toss.
    You can try buying some to send to the troops if you want to buy something from them.

    I typically shave once every two weeks. I hadn't shaved for over nearly a month recently because due to medical issues and I felt disgusting.

    I confess that I've eaten so badly and so much in the last two weeks that I've put on 2.4 kg (About 6ish pounds). I also confess that I'm going on vacation in three days and WILL be putting on more. ;)

    I confess my eating hasn't been great these passed weeks but I somehow managed to lose 12.4lbs since beginning of Feb!

    Also I'm still trying to workout what my calorie goal should be, I'm constantly changing it & I ignore my 'net' figure on here and just subtract my exercise from my food intake. Maybe I should stop fitbit neg calorie adjustments.

    Spending my whole life after thirteen years old being over 220lbs, I've dropped too much and afraid to go back to normal eating because I don't want to every get where I was again.
