    I wonder how many parents in my kids class just either do the homework for their kid, or just give them all the answers so they turn in perfect work

    ... do parents actually do that? Seems kinda detrimental to the development of your kid, if so.

    right, but if it LOOKS like the kids are doing good then it LOOKS like the parents are doing even better. My kids have high C's and B's. They've earned them all and I couldn't be happier about it.

    Anyone else this way or am I just unhinged?!

    Sometimes on a core day I feel the exact opposite. It’s the ONLY time I feel like stopping in the middle of a workout. Cuz...my neck feels it...my legs feel it. My *kitten* core doesn’t feel it. I’m doing it all wrong cuz my core is non-existant. So...I feel you in opposite. Normally I feel good before and after.

    What exercises are you doing for your core that are hurting your neck etc?
    All of them. Lol. Things like V-Ups. I don’t know the names of everything we do. But I’m compensating for having super weak abs by using my leg and neck muscles.

    Ah I see. I have managed to eliminate the neck pain by weighing down my feet lol. Core work sucks 👎

    Lose 2lb gain it back over night , is this what they mean by yo-yo dieting? 🤔
    Someone HELP ME!

    Daily weight will fluctuate. Look at the weekley average, then monthly in the overall picture. Also, think fat loss, not just weight loss

    There are other forums in the community chat part of MFP with knowledgeable peeps who can help you a bit more. Hope this helps

    Thanks 😊

    Do modified versions until you build enough strength up. That way you dont injure yourself. For instance... instead of this...

    Currently that I hate the feeling of having a hard, dried booger in my nose. It's gross to pick it out, but also.. it's annoying as *kitten* to have it wiggling around in there and not a tissue in sight. :neutral:

    :lol: That mentality is hilarious to me since my kid is an A honor roll student (all on his own) and I'm over here being a hot mess. Trust me, NO ONE thinks I'm "doing better" than them. Unless by "better" you mean alive.. and not homeless, then yes.

    People crack me up, man.

    Not nearly as beautiful as @bojack5 ‘s flips, but I finished my living room late last night. It made my wife happy, and that’s all that matters.


    Looks great!!

    I just wish MFP would edit out all the nonsensical food measurements like ‘1 slice’. It drives me to kilojoules trying to find foo expressed in grams or mls, preferably in multiples of 10. Just saying.
