Muscle vs Fat
^^^ and that is how you link to a thread when you reference one, so everyone can see the train wreck unfold.
I refuse to even read that thread.
Confession: I'm going in!
I also "went in" and I think my favorite post was "ugh!". My thoughts exactly!0 -

I look forward to those avacados.
Confession 2: If you asked me personally, I would tell you that it's not worth it. I feel like I'm so far down in it that I've committed myself. But I miss food. I miss coffee. I stopped dreaming about cheeseburgers and grilled chicken after I added protein shakes, but it's still a daily struggle. 22 days.
But... why?I went to the gym last night for Zumba and got there about 5 min early. I figured, hey, while I'm waiting, I could warm up for 5 min on the treadmill. Then I was like, Nah, F-it...I don't feel like wiping down the machine for a measly 5 min.
<---lazy
I wouldn't even bother wiping after 5 minutes. I only wipe if I actually sweat (which is pretty much after 10 minutes).
THANK YOU. So many posts about wiping before and after and such. I am not one who sweats other then the pits/groin so I wipe it mostly so I don't get shunned by the other people. I bring a towel to sit on for weights but cardio machines doesn't seem like a big deal for me. I always wash my hands after a workout so what's the biggie if I don't wipe after a 5 min warmup?0 -

I have to coach people on why that's not an acceptable way to speak on the phone to customers. Or, at least, I used to. Now I have to coach people on how to coach that. If you think it's tough hearing it, you should try correcting it.

This is funny because most people think I'm a very sweet, shy person when in reality I am a fiery inferno of rage held together loosely with caffeine and death metal.
Oh, that's a great description! This exactly describes my youngest son as well. I may have to steal this from you! (and I'd try to put a stop to the "honey" business; that IS condescending)
When ever someone calls me 'honey' and I don't like it, I can them 'sweet pants' or 'honey bunch' - they usually get the hint pretty quickly.0 -

I worry that it is too severe and you are setting yourself up for failure. If it's just a hurdle and you are almost over it, then all the power to you but a week in and it's this stressful? *hugs*
It's a personal challenge, and it's a difficult one. But I feel fine (truly). Breaking that food addiction and resetting my tastes a little are the major motivation - the quick weight loss really isn't. I'm all too aware that that water weight will come back, etc. And if it makes anyone feel better, I am being Dr. supervised 0 -
Confession: I'm not a violent person and would never hit someone out of anger, but when I'm doing a workout with lots of punching/kicking and I'm getting tired, I imagine I'm punching my stupid ex in his stupid face, and that helps me push through the workout.
(also, when I originally typed this I accidentally put "hit someone out of hunger". That might actually happen)0 -

I used to put butter on bread and then a mound of parmesan cheese and toast it in the toaster oven. Yum. Especially good on english muffins.
You really shouldn't be giving me ideas. I am not creative enough to come up with this stuff on my own.

Yes, sacrifices, exactly. *claps*

Glad to hear. I was more worried about the mental aspect of the challenge. I have no willpower though so although I pick better things to eat I would be unable to go without grilled chicken or food that I can chew in general. I like chewing! I like my protein shake but I couldn't drink all my meals. I hope this helps you and PM if you ever want to chat to distract from wanting food.0 -

There's a song that I think is funny that starts "your booty is delicious", so if that word is used around me, I will immediately start singing it.0 -
Confession 1: I totally skipped my workout yesterday because when I did it on Monday it made my cramps 3x worse
Confession 2: I woke up way too late this morning to go for my run - I'm too embarrassed to run after 7am because then there are too many people around to see me. So that's two days with no exercise...0 -

They have both told me that I can't buy a pole and put it in the house, but one day in the near future (once a sale comes around) I am going to put a pole up and they're just going to have to deal with it.
I wish I had the courage to do this (I even looked into a local class) but I have a fear of falling--sit-ups on a Yoga ball scares me unless I have a stand behind it just in case I roll back too far. Good for you!
When I first bought my exercise ball, that's all I did with it - climb on it and roll around on the floor, falling multiple times and laughing my a** off. I still do it from time to time

Please tell me you're going! I LOVE those guys. Especially Jensen Ackles. AKA Dean Winchester.

That's alright. Now you've had a couple rest days and will be fresh & ready to go for your next workout!0 -

I confess more than anything I want to be hot again.
Messed.
Not messed at all. My fitness motivation is easily more than 50% aesthetic and I'm sure there are many, many other folks here who feel the same way.
And a heckuva lot of my current appearance-related motivation is due to my stepdaughter's upcoming wedding. If I'm going to be "on display", even peripherally, I want to look like "someone who works out". Especially for the ex.
Now how shallow and immature is that?
Not shallow in my world at all. I lost 100 lbs. in preparation for having a sex life again after nearly 20 years of chastity.

Friends, family acquaintances... no one is safe from my fact-checking. No Uncle Jerry, I'm sorry. Thomas Jefferson did not say that about gun control.
I will shamelessly Snopes people my newsfeed, too. I have no problem letting someone know they're posting stupid *kitten*.
Right here with you guys.....why post something you saw without knowing if it is actually true or not? Stupid......
I've done that too... I always check snopes and just post the link, lol.
I used to cut and paste links to show people their own foolishness, but I'm on an outdated version of Firefox (and too lazy to fix it) and there's a conflict with Facebook, so I can't cut and paste in the comments. I'm forced to type out any links I want to reference.
Confession: I'm such an *kitten* with my need to correct disinformation that I will type out full links, sometimes a hundred characters long, into comments because dammit(!), someone on the internet is wrong!
They can't put anything on the internet that's not true.
It always amazes me how many people keep posting stupid stuff long after it's been shown to be false! I immediately jump to snopes.
The one that constantly amazes me is when the "I hereby revoke half the crap I agreed to in the facebook TOS by posting this legally worthless wall of text on my wall, because I seem to have a disorder that causes me to forget the dozen people who tell me it's a scam every 3 months when I post it like I've never seen it before" thing happens.0 -

I'm not seeing the point to a lot of them anymore. Had someone wish a heart attack on me yesterday because I mentioned that ketchup and baked beans have sugar added to them. Starting to wonder if MFP gets the same troll influx that other sites get around school vacations?0 -
Okay, confession time. I have been overeating by 500-1300 calories over my goal various days over the past couple of weeks. I'm refusing to call it binge eating because I don't want to break my six months binge eating free streak (and it doesn't fit the definition of binge eating, but it is definitely overeating.) I have been logging but not completing my logs because I don't want people to see.0

When my daughter was about that age, we were looking out the window and our dog ran by. She said, "Where the hell does he think he's going?!" To which her dad replied, "Wonder where the hell she got that from." You definitely have to be careful, everything will be repeated, many times, at the most inopportune moments.
It's funny how moments like that stand out in my memory. She's 21 now!0 -

Lol we all have those weird things that bother us. I can't think of any off the top of my head but I will confess that I think the word delicious is kinda sexy.
Yes we all have weird things that bother us. Or at least I know I do. I cannot stand to hear grown women refer to their periods as "Aunt Flo". That sounds sofa king stupid.0 -

Hahaha that's awesome. I'm actually shocked that my kids don't swear, considering who they live with.0 -
Ok, I am about to take the dive! I have been creeping this site since the very beginning. It makes me laugh out loud.
Haven't been brave enough to join in...But I guess the waters fine! I must admit that the links to the other discussions distracts me from reading this one (which I prefer) but confession time I can't resist.

Yep. Told my son we could not stop for ice cream on the way to day care (7:45am) the other day and he stared forlornly out the window. Under his breath, barely audible, I heard, "Dammit."0 -

Haha those are both great! I have no kids yet but I have many younger siblings and I always cracked up when they learned a new bad word but had no idea what it meant!
