Huh. I was thinking AF meant Aunt Flo. I've been reading it as Aunt Flo. It's much funnier my way.

More like. Dude: LOL, sumpin sumpin text speak Woman: Do you talk that way IRL? it's weird. Dude: sumpin sumpin text speak feminist wks misc. temporary ban for being a french shower Woman and Evg: Oh, so that's why you're here. Yay us! not Dud: You just bunch of feminists and wks and I'm super strong and awesome and super…

Indeed. You're so un-butthurt that you had to respond. Coming from a woman. Wanna have a logic-off? It's like squats but you have to use the skull muscle.

Convo so far: Women: Dude, you're butthurt. Bro: I'm not butthurt, you're butthurt, doe feminists and wks. Let's have a squat off. Y'all, I'm dying here.

I wouldn't stress the perfect form thing too much. Good form would be a better statement. If you've ever been to or participated in powerlifting, the max lifts are rarely perfect form. Besides perfect for one is imperfect for another because of anatomy. For example, some people can squat far lower than others and both…

I'd hate life is my days were exactly the same for 5 weeks. I've never found that feature to be accurate.

That happens when they fry the donut in stale oil or it sits around for too long. Ends up tasting like butt.

OP, self control is the ONLY thing we have that works. People who say they have no self control have self control, but they don't want to use it. Self control is a mental exercise, not a physiological response. I read your post while eating a cupcake that my daughter baked me. Now I'm going to get up and move around…

These are UK sizes. The middle woman is most likely a US size 6-8. Regardless, it doesn't matter. Constantly comparing ourselves to others doesn't do us a lot of good. People don't always look good at the same size. We're all sorts of heights and builds.

What kind of back injury? A strain? Slipped disk? You really should be strengthening the muscles around your spine. Start doing back extensions and planks. If you don't have a gym membership or access to a Roman Chair, you can use the sofa arm and have someone sit on the sofa and hold your feet. And it never hurts to hang…

Oh dear.

Canned tomatoes all day every day. They're picked at their peak and canned. You're likely to get better nutrition from them than from the "fresh" ones that are picked green and shipped to stores even during peak season. And you are definitely going to get better taste because grocery tomatoes taste awful.

Nobody cares who still eats McDonald's and PopTarts. And nobody cares who eats nothing but non-GMO organic chia seeds and salads. OP, I don't post my diary here because I don't need the approval of the masses, but I eat a nutritionally balanced diet that doesn't involve too much fast food, etc. It includes a lot of foods I…

Depends entirely on the island. Are we talking Manhattan? New Zealand? Oahu?

It's very likely that you're experiencing a gain from the side effect of the steroids they gave you in conjunction with the Taxol and Adriamycin and Cytoxan regimens. Taxol is believed to cause a weight loss over time, but it probably has more to do with the steroids finally working their way out of your body. I am triple…

The first one is coleus and butterfly weed. The second looks like rocket or a type of japanese spinach. The third is a caladium. Just a plain green one. Not the prettiest variety. Fourth is a type of butterfly weed. The white flower is a geranium, a Kashmir White cranesbill geranium. Often used as ground cover. Then more…

There is nothing more unfair than expecting others to conform when you try to change. You control you and you alone. Leave him out of the equation, and certainly don't tell him that any weight you gain, or any inability to lose, is his responsibility. It isn't. Your body is all yours and his is all his. Just like he can't…

I snack on meat that I keep pre-cut in my fridge. If that doesn't work, I eat the cookie and go for a bike ride. But then I go for a long enough bike ride that I am really hungry, so I eat the pizza. Then I lift to make up for eating the pizza. Then I enter it into the database to realize that I exercised enough to have a…

A lower weight higher rep program can be a hypertrophy program. If the rep range puts the person at the one rep max equivalent calculation and there is progressive overload, then you'll get good results. Kai Greene does a lower weight higher rep program. He's not hurting for muscles. (yeah, I know he juices, so what) I…

Survival skills are key. Can you fish and make good snares? How are your machete skills? Do you know how to find water in plants?

Please do NOT wear one of those pastel horizontal striped hipster things, though. Those are for the spaghetti armed, raspberry beer-swilling set. Wear sport tanks. Or muscle shirts. Those look hot.

Just go in there and start with the bar. I was intimidated at first, stuck to the machines for a couple of months, and then I just went for it. That was over 2 years ago, and I haven't looked back.

They are a staple of my diet. I'd say that 20 grams of protein in a 200 calorie bar is a little better than "marginally" better than candy. I eat them for breakfast or as a snack when I'm too far under on my calories for the day. Besides, most of them have a good micronutrient profile as well. Some of them might as well be…

I prefer lemon and/or cucumber in my water just because I want to enjoy drinking it. You can't cleanse your body of toxins with vinegar, cleanses, or gimmicks. Your body cleanses itself. If you're not a drug user, then what would you even need to cleanse?

I took a full week break from lifting 2 weeks ago and just rode my bike a bit. Nothing too exhausting. My strength went up, surprisingly. The body needs rest.

That does stink. For now, maybe just pop them in a tandem running stroller and hit the pavement, I guess.

20 grams? That's crazy talk. It's just a carb. Why do people like to overcomplicate things? Give yourself some macronutrient and micronutrient goals, but why go insane with cutting out entire food groups? Fruits are some of the best sources of micronutrients A and C. To lose weight, eat less and move more. It is calories…

Rule 1: never marry someone who comes from old European money and expect working class American values. Rule 2: never marry anyone who wants to be a rock star when he grows up. Hire a divorce lawyer, realize the error of your ways for marrying an entitled wannabe musician, and move on with your life.

Isn't pretty much anything that isn't still attached to the living animal processed in some form or another? I spend so little time concerning myself with what's processed these days. Except that I'm taking a break from things right now and concerning myself with all sorts of fun things on the net.

In all seriousness, MFP is a buffet where everyone is serving the same thing.
