I also never order ribs. I hate getting my hands dirty, even if it's because of delicious ribs.
I stopped eating meat 25 years ago because seeing raw meat grossed me out. I stopped eating anything you had to rip off a bone 35 years ago. Completely turns my stomach.
That's very similar to my explanation of how I eat: if it reminds me of what it was when it was alive, I don't eat it. Sometimes it's appearance, and other times (like pork) it's texture that puts me off.
I can force myself to cook it but I won't be able to eat the end result, having handled it.
But I can eat ground beef from time to time (bears no resemblance to dead cow, in my mind) or small pieces of meat like ham in pea soup or chicken bits in fried rice with no problem... just don't plop a steak on my plate.
I'll volunteer as tribute to eat your steak. Oh, and pork.
I accept, thank you!
You get my steak, roast, porkchops, bacon, ribs and chicken parts -- never been able to eat wings.
(Needless to say, anything with a bone in it immediately fails the "it used to be alive" test.)
And apparently my egg consumption isn't as high as I thought...
I know I've got you beat, but then, that's keto problems
For the first time in my life I care about muscle mass and, sadly, I can confirm that protein intake has a huge impact on the success of lifting. "Sadly" because I've happily eaten high carb/low protein until about a year ago.Ready2BFitMom wrote: »I have binge eaten so badly that I got sick and threw up, on multiple occassions.
Thankfully I am on the path to seeing a therapist to deal with my emotional eating!

I hate it.
I close my eyes. It seems like it drags on and on when I stare at the time on the elliptical. I also listen to music and tell myself 1 more song, ok 2 more songs, now 3 songs, etc etc.
Eh, it works for me.
I do 20 minutes of cardio every morning before I lift, and I get through that by telling myself at least I'm not doing squats (my least favourite lift).
When I'm into the lifting part of my workout, I just keep reminding myself that at the end of it I get my reward, my delicious Dyna Whey iced cappuccino protein shake (you're reading this, aren't you @JPW1990 ?)
It's a 3 hr drive to Windsor, and I'd have to get my passport renewed. You're mean

Today's confession: It REALLY p*sses me off that you can't outwork a bad diet.
The last month, I've been logging everything as usual, breakfast, lunches & snacks have been on point, but after analyzing the data, noticed my avg cals per day have been quite a bit higher. Exercise burn has been at its usual levels, avg about 550 cals a day. I usually net about 11-1200 cals per day after exercise, but this last month it's been more like 1700. And not good calories either, a lot of crap at home after work. Chips, cake, cookies. Bad habit creeping back in, getting complacent, I've figured this out for years, blah blah blah.
End result? a 5 lb gain for May.
The fire has been lit.
Thanks for the compliment!
I thought you could outwork a bad diet if you were male. All the males in my family do it. They workout simply so that they can continue to eat their fast food, drink pop/soda, and satisfy their steak and bacon obsession. Sorry it's not that way for you, but you will be better off in the long run!
Some guys can. I'm not one of them, unfortunately!
Being fit & trim, I am the freak in my family...everyone, and I mean EVERYONE, is overweight. My younger brother looks like John Candy. If I stop watching it & stop exercising I can put on 5 lbs in 10 days, no problem. It's a main focus of my life to stay fit & trim, and I've been on it for 8 years now.
Here's my DL photo from 2007, at 240 lbs:
And here's my new one, taken last month, at 175:
Still way behind! That is a dramatic difference in those pictures, you should be very proud of your accomplishment! One day when I figure out how to post pics on here I will show you mine.
That's really amazing and you truly look happy now!0 -

This is Owen. I fear he's not to return. It's been over 3 weeks now and haven't seen him. That makes me sad because he was my baby boy.
This is Lucy and Otis. Lucy is the big (for her breed, she's actually on the small side) Staffy, and Otis is the little one in the background.
Awww, they're all so cute but I love big dogs so can I have Lucy?
ETA: I love their names and I'm really sorry about Owen
You'd have to fight (physically more than likely) my husband for her. That's his baby and he was heartbroken when she ran away a few years ago. That's a long story and she didn't run away on purpose. Anyway, NO, you can't have Lucy. Although, you're more than welcome to come and visit her.
Edited because sometimes reading and typing is hard.
Deal, I'll bring my Hannah she's my profile pic
And she's adorable! I also love big dogs. Grew up my whole life with them. I just don't think I'm a small dog person. The smallest I think I could go for my own dog would be a Frenchie. I love Frenchies.
I totally want a Frenchie!!! So cute!
I KNOW!!! I mean how freaking adorable is the this little pile of rolls and fur?! I already have a name picked for when I get him. Pierre. Cute, right?!

I just now finished my protein shake. It was warm and gross and tasted nothing like chocolate cake @quiksylver296
Unless I have a huge dinner, I'm going to have a hard time hitting my calorie goal today. I'm just not feeling like eating. I just want to lie down under a blanket and not be working. I will force myself to walk the treadmill at lunch so at least I can get some kind of physical movement today.
side note, does anyone have any experience with Anthropologie? I found the CUTEST swimsuit on there yesterday but I didn't want to fork over the money if it's not good quality or has a crap return policy, etc.
What do you think? Now, I won't look anywhere close to what she looks like, but I think it's sexy pinuppy but still super modest and conservative.
I don't have an experience with Anthropologie, but that swimsuit is very nice!
Love the suit! Worth a try!
That's what I was thinking too. I better hurry and get something because I have to leave for my trip in less than a month. And a month from tomorrow is my 15 year anniversary!!! I'm so excited. I should probably start thinking about what I'm going to get my husband. You know, other than me.

I am over at the neighborhood high school several times a week because of activities and I can confirm that my parents would have never let me out of the house in the things some girls are wearing. Now, they look great and I'm glad that they are confident, but holy crap - not in my house.0 -

I confess, that's a hot picture. I may have to save it to my hard drive so I can double click my mouse later, if you know what I mean. Or would I be clearing out my cookies?
Well I get what you mean but since you're a dude ( I think) you would not be doing this.
LOL American Pie reference.0 -
Yes, I agree with @kellienw335. It is really cute, but you generally don't want the bottoms to fall at the largest part of the thigh. Of course, that may not be true in your case. How do you think it will fit?
Sorry, but I have no knowledge of their quality or durability, though.
I tried on a pair of swim shorts that hit in about the same place and they were super flattering and they made my butt look incredible. I should have bought them. I'm not sure how it will fit and I'm nervous about spending $148 on something I can't try on first. But I'm 100% in love with this swimsuit and it got all 5 star reviews on the site.
Well, then, as long as you can return it for a full refund if it doesn't fit for some reason, I'd go for it!
Thanks, I think I will. I will check out their return policy this weekend and if I don't find anything else I love just as much, I'm going for it!

The next time you start, aim for 4 days and build on that. Never give up! Remember the story of the tortoise & the hare! Don't give up!I've lied in bed researching diet plans and exercise routines umpteen times but have never worked out for more than three days when I eventually start.

ModCloth has ones like that, I think, and they're far less expensive, I think! I can't check right now, but I strongly believe they have ones that are very similar! (I only state this because I've had very, very good experiences with ModCloth and their shipping/quality/return policy!)
I checked. Because I'm running on about 5 hours sleep right now and I'm too braindead to do my job competently.
They had lots with similar top but a regular leg cut... as far as I can tell on my crap monitor, which distorts images horizontally. Not many with the longer boy-short style leg though.

I'm so in love with Mod Cloth. One of my fitness goals is to get down to a size where I feel comfortable shopping there. I know they have a lot of really cute plus sized stuff, but I'd like to not be in that size anymore when I drop tons of cash in there.0

They are sexualizing themselves. I, as a women, wear what I want, too. My butt cheeks don't hang out, because it isn't appropriate in any situation outside a strip club or a bedroom.

I feel like maybe calling them *kitten* is a bit much, but I agree that they should not be wearing those things at school. Like everyone everywhere, kids need to learn that there is a time and a place to dress provocatively, and school/your job is not it. I am so over the dress codes saying girls can't wear regular tank tops though. That is going too far in the other direction.0 -

She didn't call them *kitten* & hookers... she said they LOOKED LIKE *kitten* and hookers. Big difference.
