    Today, I was at my neighborhood park/playground shooting hoops when a group of teenagers came in the court. I stayed way longer than I would have otherwise to prove I wasn't a wuss.

    This made me laugh. I would totally do this. Much too competitive, to my own detriment, sometimes.

    When my niece & I play Just Dance I always get so mad when she beats me.

    Please help me settle a debate.

    What is a normal number of eggs for one person to consumer in a week? Let's imagine this person eats meat, but not necessarily every day, and not big portions of it. This person happily consume plenty of wholegrains, fruit and veg, dairy (and too much sugar but never mind that).

    So normal number of eggs in a week?

    I'd ask in the normal forums, but I don't want my face ripped off by the 'eat all the protein carbs are evil' mob. (Not having a dig at you low-carbers, just at the way some people harp on about it!)

    Um, I do eat meat. I would estimate my weekly egg consumption around 18 eggs.
    I eat 2 every morning without fail and more sometimes in tuna or boiled or deviled eggs as a snack. Some weeks I eat more than that, but almost never less.

    looking at everyone's answers, i'm seriously behind on the egg wagon. if i have any, it's 2-3/week...

    I'm the same. I might eat an egg or two every now & then, but I usually eat my Quest bars in the morning since they're so delicious.

    As long as someone isn't eating as many as Gaston from Beauty & The Beast they should be fine.

    I've relapsed in my eating disorder. I only went over 500 calories ingested once this week, and I refuse to log my exercise because I don't believe that I actually burned that much. I have a concussion, and I'm not supposed to work out, so I do it all in secret so no one notices. I also have started weighing myself at least twice a day, never content with the number.

    *hugs*

    Is there anyone you can talk to personally or professionally? Good luck with your recovery.

    I've been extremely, extremely depressed today. I've only gotten out of bed to pray my five daily prayers and then got right back into it to cry and sleep and cry and sleep some more. I figured that if I slept long enough, I might not wake up again. Didn't quite work, as you can see. *sigh*

    On a related confession, I feel so guilty that I can suffer from severe depression when I have such a wonderful life. A wonderful husband, a beautiful apartment, everything I need or want at my fingertips. So many people have nothing and so many people want to live, so what right do I have to want to die? Also, what in the world is so wrong with me that I would feel this way when my life is almost perfect, especially when compared to my childhood? One of the supreme mysteries of the universe. :-/

    Hugs and good thoughts to you. Please take care of you

    Hoarded 1500+ calories for a work party this evening...and some *kitten* hat didn't make the group reservation for Jack Stack BBQ:( Now I am stuck eating crappy pizza that I NEVER would have wasted the calories on. There may be a DQ Blizzard in my future...

    @Susieq_1994 I hope tomorrow is a better day for you.

    I have to confess that not one vegetable or fruit has passed my lips today. Good thing I take vitamins.

    Edit: This is to Susie:
    Oh, I'm so sorry you're feeling bad. There's no rhyme or reason to depression, so try not feel like you're wrong to feel the way you do. I think guilt is a very common issue.

    I'm very worried about your talk of dying though. Do you have a doctor who's helping you? Is your husband around?

    Not to worry, I've never been suicidal. :) I just want to... Stop existing, if that makes sense. It's almost midnight here and my husband is asleep, but he's around to wake up if I need him. :)

    Nope, I don't have a doctor. I mentioned it like five million posts back, but I'm terrified of doctors. I tried to get help once and I just couldn't make it through the sessions. I broke down after my second one and never went back. I also never spoke to the doctor directly (my husband had to speak for me), because I have selective mutism and couldn't speak. It was a pretty useless attempt, to be honest. :-/
    Ok, glad to hear things aren't critical.

    Can you research a doctor who might be more approachable? There are so many medications and therapies available that might be able to make life a lot more bearable for you. Is your husband sympathetic? Maybe he could make an initial appointment to discuss your issues with the doctor first, so s/he would have a basic understanding before you went along. Is a female doctor an option? I recall that you suffer from agoraphobia - are home visits possible there?

    Unfortunately, therapy options in Saudi Arabia are extremely limited, and the hospital my husband's insurance covers has very limited amounts of doctors. Only one psychiatrist was experienced with my particular condition (Functional Neurological Disorder accompanied by anxiety disorder, clinical depression, and selective mutism), and none of the available therapists seemed to have experience in CBT. I made an appointment with one female therapist, but chickened out and canceled at the last minute, though, so I can't say for sure.

    My husband is very sympathetic and knows exactly what I'm going through because he has some similar issues. He's medicated though, and I'm not. He's my best (and only) cheerleader, actually. :) And on a bright note, he told me a couple of days ago that my anxiety has improved in leaps and bounds over the past month or so, and I attributed a lot my success to the support in this thread. :)

    Home visits don't really exist here, and I'm not sure that they'd be easier or more comfortable for me. :( And the psychiatrist that I did manage to see kind of gave up on letting me talk and wouldn't even wait for me to try to speak after the first session--He just tried throwing medication at me without even letting me speak. I was very disheartened after that. :(
    The lady therapist sounds like a good option. Can you make another appointment?
    It's great that your husband is supportive, and that he sees some improvement. I hope you continue to make baby steps towards feeling better.

    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.

    I bought my swimsuit off of http://www.unique-vintage.com/swim/one-piece-swimsuits.html last year & it was pretty good quality.

    Not so much a confession as such but I've only found out today that steps shouldn't be counted in calorie burn unless they're above a certain number (ie. because I've put myself as sedentary it allows for around 5000, I think?). Instead of going back and deleting all the exercise entries I included for my pedometer I've just left it because I don't want to see some of my days dip into the red :( Only been using this for 5 days though so not too much of a tragedy? haha

    I did that when I was in a weight loss comp, but only on the last day. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water while doing that!

    Not only water, but put a teaspoon of salt in the water.

    I'm headed to my best friend's retirement party. He's only 44, and has to take a medical retirement due to a brain tumor. Many margaritas will be drank. Calories will not be counted.

    Well, it finally happened...something I've been nervous about for a while now. Our (not so bright) 10 month old kitten jumped on the treadmill this morning during my run. The confession part? I finished my run...(for another 7 minutes) before checking on her. I feel awful! She seems fine...but I definitely stepped on her.
    I will keep an eye on her throughout the day to make sure she's ok and doesn't need a vet appointment. But seriously, nothing quite stops your heart like stepping on a cat while running on a treadmill.

    Doh! Glad she's ok. Cats can do the dumbest things sometimes.

    Yup, she's proven that on more than one occasion! I think she's learned her lesson today though...I hope. ;)

    My Fitbit starts giving me a few extra around 3500. I'm set at sedentary as well. Only 100 or so between there and 5000 but extras are extra.

    Food-related confession: I'm completely fed up with long pasta like spaghetti and linguine. Manual dexterity isn't my strong suit and I get so bored with twirling it into a manageable forkful, which seems to take me an extraordinary length of time, and I end up losing most of the sauce in the process so all I taste is the noodle. And there is usually some trailing end that I can't manage to train onto the fork that thwaps me in the chin anyway. I gave up ordering these types of noodles in restaurants long ago since I can't manage to eat them gracefully.

    We had some leftover meat sauce and the SO made it with linguine last night (which obviously prompted this confession!). After the first couple of mouthfuls, I decided "screw it" and started hacking it up into smaller pieces with my knife. What the hell, I was in the privacy of my own home, who cares if I commit Pasta Sacrilege?

    Being over 1000 posts behind due to a crazy week, I am just skimming through and this was the first one I stopped to comment on.....I CARE LOL
    Seriously though, are you rinsing your pasta with water after you cook it? I know a lot of people think you are supposed to do that, but you are not...it makes the sauce not stick as well. If you are not, I am not really understand why you are losing all your sauce, it should stick to your pasta......

    Sadly, I confess...if I ever were to get divorced, though I like to think different, I would probably be "that older guy" that hooks up with someone younger...then feel all creepy about it.

    On the radio morning show the other day, they were discussing the age ranges of men and women's "ideal" match. They went over the stats for women from 20's up to 60's, and generally, they were looking for someone within 5 years as their own age. For the men from 20's up to 60's, they were looking for someone in the 20-21 range. "That" older guy isn't as rare as you think.

    The 'rule' for an acceptable age gap is half the older age + 7. So if you're 24, you can date down to 19. If you're 40, you can date down to 27. If you're 16, you can date down to 15. See, it works, the internet told you so!

    I jest of course, date whoever you like so long as it's legal!

    My father was 19 years older than my mother ;)

    My grandfather* was 25 years older than my grandmother**. It, unfortunately, was not a happy marriage.

    * Not my actual grandfather - my mother always suspected that, and had a DNA test which confirmed it. She confronted my Granny about it, who finally admitted that my actual grandfather was a French-Canadian soldier stationed in our town during the war. Scandal!

    I break mine in half when cooking, so shorter pieces!!

    I used to do that! It also makes it easier to get the darned things underwater in the pot.

    I stopped doing it because my ex was absolutely horrified by this practice and kinda shamed me into cooking them whole. Yeah, I should've told him to get off his *kitten* and cook it himself or STFU.

    Maybe I'll make that suggestion to the SO (he's the cook).

    You guys are killing me with all your pasta-icide stories! These are sins against my people!!! :p

    Yeah, she was what they call 'a character'. Great for a Granny, not so much for a mother, I fear. My poor mum was pretty damaged by her upbringing.

    Ah, THERE you are! *waves*

    If anyone is going to bust me for cutting up long pasta, it would be someone whose username starts with "Italian" lol.

    Yes, he rinsed the pasta in cold water after cooking. But I've had the same issue in restaurants, where I daren't take my knife to the pesky things. And my complaint isn't just about losing the sauce, it was the giant mound of meat crumbles and vegetables sitting there waiting to be eaten after it fell off the pasta.

    I'm just going to ban long pasta from the house. Maybe while he's away I'll stock up on penne and shells and bowties... then when he tries to buy spaghetti I can legitimately say we've got a ton of stuff we need to use up. o:)

    That's how I felt too. They were alright, but definitely not as good as the Target exclusive Cotton Candy Oreos.

    I also finally tried the Lemon Oreos & have to say they're really good.

    I just walked by the local high school on my lunch break. Confession: so glad I'm years beyond high school. Question: did high school aged girls always look like hookers? The amazingly short shorts with crop tops/sport bras! Holy *kitten*-child, Batman!

    are you serious ? calling young girls *kitten* and hookers?sexualizing them ...how nice

    they can wear whatever they want just like any other girl or women

    geezus

    Was it the "absolutely" the "no" or the "judgment" that tripped you up?

    Amen. And I agree about clothes, heck some things that 10yo girls wear make me shake my head sometimes.

    Me too. And I seriously question their parents judgement.

    Sometimes I wonder if their parents know how they're dressing. I've heard of kids wearing one outfit leaving home and changing at school.

    I would do that in high school. Change in the back of the bus. But I don't remember it being that extreme. I had a catsuit that I would wear under ripped jeans (oh, the 90's!). My mom hated that catsuit. LOL

    As well she should have. Really, a catsuit?! I think we all need to see pictures.

    I don't think I have any. It was long-sleeved and flowered and zipped up the back. The cloth would show through the rips in the jeans. I thought I was pretty awesome in that. Wish I had the body I had then.

    ETA: I feel like I should add this from Wikipedia: A catsuit is a close-fitting one-piece garment that covers the torso and the legs, and frequently the arms.[1] They are usually made from stretchable material, such as lycra, chiffon, spandex.

    How did you use the restroom while wearing this thing?! This is why women go to restroom in pairs. :smiley:

    Well, you didn't wait until the last minute, that's for sure!

    I'm all about the jumpsuits right now and to pee, you have to undress to the waist and kind of sling it over one arm...let's just say I won't be wearing them to any festivals this year with any kind of port-o-potties because they are exceedingly difficult to keep off the floor.

    Also, on the clothing note, I grew up in that part of the 90s where crop tops AND low-rise jeans were in style at the same time, so I'm just relieved that at least the trend now seems to be high-rise bottoms with the crop tops so you only see the upper half of the stomach. Way cuter.

    I remember how bad I wanted a pair of low rise Levi's when their "belly button" commercials came out. Remember those?

    Definitely! I also had a pair of super-low-rise jeans that had a LACE UP fly instead of a zipper or buttons...klassy klassy klassy. Looking back I cannot believe my mother let me out of the house in them as I think you could see my hipbones above the waistband. I definitely wore those to school though...

    I had a pair of pants like that too. LOVED them. Christina Aguilera wore pants in a couple videos that laced up on the hips, and I wanted a pair so bad!

    ETA: Although the fashion may be different, I suppose teenage girls are the same lol.

    Right? I see them around and I'm mostly just relieved that there aren't visible g-strings like when I was their age. The leggings and crop tops are not nearly as offensive or revealing, thankfully. And I love that lots of very loose, flowy tops and dresses are trendy now. Way better than those painted-on ultra low-rise jeans and tube tops I loved...not to mention the platforms and huge wedge heels. I had a pair of six-inch wedge sandals that laced up my calves too about fifteen years ago...eesh. Ooh, and the huge chunky highlights on the flatironed hair.

    I'm not even 30 yet so it's a little early for pearl-clutching but I seriously think teenagers today don't look nearly as, uh, trashy as my high school classmates did.

    Oh ya, I forgot about that... I wasn't one to have my underwear hanging out, but there were lots of girls out like that. I guess I can no longer talk about "kids these days" when it comes to fashion choices :blush:

    I remember girls used to pull their thong up on purpose so it was showing and the Head Teacher called a girls assembly in school to stop it from happening.

    Ps. When I'm on this board I find myself constantly questioning if I should Americanize words cos a lot of you are from there. I've thought this about Mum/Mom, sunbeds/tanning beds, Head teacher/Principal, bum/butt, *kitten*/*kitten* and I'm sure there's more... B)

    Jumper always got me. How does that equal sweater? LOL

    I have a friend who got very irritated when I told him that every time he mentioned his "jumper," I was picturing him wearing one of these:

    Nice.

    I have to admit I had some of those jeans with the fold down button fly. I believe they were even acid wash with ankle zippers. I also, I'm sad to admit, had a pair of low rise skintight jeans that had no pockets but did have a huge attached faux belt. I wore these AFTER I had my daughter and I thought I looked hot. I looked ridiculous.

    I'm glad I dress more classic and age appropriate now.
    I try not to. Look at the shoes my sister bought me when she was in the UK last week. I love them an inordinate amount.

    I'm so jealous right now. I have some chucks in aruba blue (aka turquoise) and I wear them everywhere. I love the patterned ones though.
    Thanks! They are Cath Kidston - a British designer whose prints I just love. I'm currently experiencing an urgent need to buy an older travel trailer and do it all out in her floral and polka dot prints.

    That sounds like it would be adorable.
