I live in the woods so I don't go walking, I go adventuring. I pick a beach or a trail I am not used to and find something I did not know was there. Are there any wildlife refuges, state parks, or other outdoors places near you?

I want to be able to hunt in some of my old spots this fall. I also wish to become a defensive tactics instructor for our academy.

I would bring you a coffee first. And, as you have no idea what I look like, I will just predict that you would be completely smitten. ;)

I often eat a hard boiled egg and light string cheese before bed to help me sleep straight through. 150 calories. Or maybe a half avocado smeared on half a toasted pita?

I am a single guy but my situation is similar. I took a three year break from dating just so I could learn what it is like to actually be single. I was married from 18-35 so I really did not know how to be alone. I just recently started putting myself back out there and yes it is easier(anxiety) to go out when I am lighter…

I keep lean pockets and lean cuisines in my freezer and in the freezer at work. I work 13-16 hour shifts much of which is often in a vehicle or a place away from any food resource other than fast food. If I can nuke up some pre-portioned food and get by with a 400 cal lunch where the option was a slice of pizza for 900…

I use fake butter from various brands as well as fat free cheeses, yogurts, and sour creams. I get most of my fats from olive oil and from whole eggs.

I guess it is up to ones relative perception of healthy. I live in a market inundated by drug money and it is trendy for the weed growers to shop at the natural and health food stores. At these stores they pay around 5$ a lb. for chicken breasts and hamburger up to 21$ a pound for porterhouse. I can shop at a major grocery…

The more I discover who I am, the less I depend on the validation of others, especially strangers. I know it hurts but for me the best response is none at all. I work in a profession where I get called names quite a bit. In nearly every situation there are two offended parties and one of them is going to remain offended…

I deleted my comment because I don't think it was constructive.

this one time I posted my stupid momentary mistake on the internet where prospective employers, my current boss, friends, family and the entire world could access it forever and ever.

I was so mad about breaking the vacuum, I dropped your sandwich.

Hey new guy, I was new two months ago. Welcome

Happens all the time. Just have to remember to love yourself too. I recommend you find that one thing that you are great at and embrace it. If you ask your friends you might find you don't even know what it is. You have your whole life to succeed. life is about failures and successes. If you aren't failing at something you…

Actually, Weight Watchers is just calorie counting with a different points based system. I used it for my first 80 lbs. or so then I found this app. I don't attend meetings and have no "community" connection so MFP is what I use now.

Curvy women are my preference and if she happens to be under 5 feet tall with blue eyes and dark hair, retro, gothic, roller derby type...................................I notice a lot.

I want to learn the secret to complete and lasting happiness. Then I want to share it with you. Not for the insane price of 99.99, not for 89.99, not even for the rock bottom price of 59.99. No today I want to give you the secret to lasting and complete happiness for fifteen low, low monthly payments of just 9.99 I really…

My clothes started fitting better at three weeks. My friends started noticing at three months. I haven't weighed yet because it discourages me when the scale numbers don't match the effort by my mind's standards. I thing going from a 4x shirt to a 2x shirt is enough confirmation for now. I just recently was cleared to lift…

I make fake ranch with the seasonings packet, FF Greek yogurt and FF buttermilk. Works good for me. Also, I measure my dressing into the bowl and then add my salad and mix it before plating it so I am not eating puddles of ranch to start and then dry salad at the end.

reduced fast cheese stick or a hard boiled egg or some cottage cheese and a *kitten*-ton of water.

I don't want to hijack this thread so here. Welcome to America. http://magazine.foxnews.com/food-wellness/most-fattening-menu-items-at-10-fast-food-chains

I have, I've eaten entire large pizzas and then eaten burgers on the way home. A single large milkshake at a fast food place can be 1500 calories. When I had a physically demanding job I ate this way and never gained an ounce. Now that I ride a desk and a car I gain easily. Forgive yourself and go back to your deficit…

You must be where you are at, to get where you are going. It's never too late to never give up.

I'm from the government, and I'm here to help.

One cannot be disciplined for insubordination if one uses the phrase, "With all due respect......"

it's crap because there are too many variables. It is particularly bad for me as I only log weight every 90 days because I get discouraged by the scale. On the other hand, it is simple math and the calculations would be spot on in a static environment.

I make a giant egg white omelet with spinach, caramelized onions, peppers, FF cottage cheese, a slice or two of turkey bacon and salsa. Sometimes I will caramelize a bunch of bean sprouts in a bit of soy sauce as a chutney to dump on top. Its filling and good.

Tattoos require maintenance. All of mine have been filled and detailed three times over fifteen years. My recommendation is to wait until you have the foundation you want, pick a great artist that will be there for touch ups for decades to come, and then wait a few years until the impulse passes. They are addicting, cat…

I make a Costco rotisserie chicken and dumplings a couple of times a month. For enhanced portion control, I use canned low fat biscuits for dumplings. I roll them flat and cut them into strips with a pizza cutter then throw them in the pot in batches. This way I know that I will have exactly 180 calories of dumpling in…
