Yeah, I know, TMI.

Every single day, first thing after I wake up and pee. Wish I could poop first thing, but that doesn't happen until after breakfast.

ewwwwwww

My son married the wife from hades - the only person he ever dated who felt threatened by his mother. He has not spoken to me since about a year after they got married. Oh, well.

Their wives will be very lucky.

I know a lot of people with fat reserves. Guess we take after camels.

That is simple terms? Wouldn't want to hear complicated ones.

Hah, my original advice upon reading this thread!!!!

Sad, but true.

Dump the guy.

I would agree.

Yup.

Actually, log it at 1100 calories because restaurants have a way of pumping extra calories in their food. Whenever I eat out, no matter how few calories it should have, I assume it's 1200 and I'm probably underestimating.

Exercise (and just being alive) is part of the calories out in CICO, but you have to start with the calories in. An hour on the treadmill for me only burns about 250 calories if that much, but it does help with my metabolism. However, 250 calories can be easily eaten in about five minutes!

Nope but she won't listen anyway.

It's good that you joined a gym. Exercise at every opportunity, as it will help you overcome your depression. My personal favorite is a treadmill with a built-in television. I time it to watch an hour of one of my favorite shows and burn lots of calories. Also, you can increase the speed and incline to burn even more…

You waste time on MFP? Say it isn't so!

I walk on the treadmill for an hour lots of times. If it has a television on it, doesn't seem like an hour at all.

Yeppers, can't wear a bikini anymore - having kids killed that. Not that I would want to at my age anyway :blush:

So very true!

Perfect!

I can't either, LOL!!!

Oh no! Not crawfish!!!

Where did I say that root vegetables and broccoli are fruits? What's the difference between root vegetables and tubers? I'm sure there some miniscule difference, but they are both clearly vegetables.

Makes a lot of sense. I googled "starvation mode" and the first two or three articles validated that it wasn't valid.

I'll just take my manual pedometer and weigh myself every day!

I think you should cheat every day; just make sure you log it in so that you can calculate exactly how many pounds you have gained.

Exercise between 2:00 and 4:00. Problem solved.

Then you definitely don't need to be eating oranges!!!!

Amen. And to whoever flagged her, shame on you.
