I not only suck at running, I don't like it much, either. Elliptical is still my friend... I can crank it up nice and steep and not destroy my joints. People who run hours and hours on end amaze me.

Ugh. Stupid feet. I'm struggling with my heels, too.. pain every damn day. I need to lose weight to help them feel better, yet working out makes them hurt.. it's a terrible cycle. So sick of my feet hurting. Hope yours improve, and fast.

Mine are 9 & 11, and while I don't need to physically feed them, they're still time consuming. They each have their own activities, homework, etc. My husband works nights and I have an hour long commute each way from my full time job. I don't see life getting less busy until they're driving themselves around. My gym time…

Wish I wouldn't have taken so much *kitten* from bullies. Wish I would have made my fitness a high priority sooner in life. Wish I had been able to see the Beastie Boys live.

Running bores me pretty fast. I prefer to break it up somehow. I marvel at people that can run marathons. There's a lady in my office getting ready for 100 mile super marathon. Blows my mind.

Best post on MFP I've read yet.

Could it be that she's jealous of your 48# loss, and that comment was designed to get to you? An intentional dig? If she's jealous, you're doing something right. And if she'd dig at you that way, she's not the kind of person that should have any influence over you. Let your haters be your motivators.

Exactly. Good beans + good brewing method... yummy toasty goodness. Kinda smoky, with that really fine layer of oil on the top... hell yeah. OK now I need to go get some joe. We were big Alton Brown nerds when we got married and he convinced me to use a French press- have never looked back.

Took me a minute to figure out 'coffee regular' = cream + sweet. Isn't that an east coast thing? Black for me.. French press at home. Though I'm pretty OK with a double latte, too... just too cheap to spend the money most days. I'm a coffee snob.

I haven't figured this place out yet I guess. I'm trying, but at times it feels a little bit like high school. I took some pretty gnarly before pictures... when I have some 'afters', then maybe I'll put them on my profile. Avatar will likely remain something other than me, though. I'd much rather see an orangutan, myself.

In my opinion, diet coke just isn't very good without rum.

Bald is AOK with me. Husband shaved his head entirely when his dad lost his hair from chemo and it looked gooood. Generally, a shaved head increases the badass factor significantly. BRUCE WILLIS JOE ROGAN

I love Comic Con with my kids... I just put my energy into their costumes. Last year I had a Monster High doll and Ash from Pokémon.. this year, Star Lord and Rey. The Star Lord costume took me many moons for last Halloween and I'm pumped he wants to wear it again to a convention. I can't imagine people being *kitten*…

Yeah, that's me. I totally don't mind being a fly on the wall. If I ever get hit on, I'm mortified. I've realized this over time that maybe I've held on to this weight for this long because I don't mind being invisible. I'm definitely doing this for ME and my health, NOT so other people will think my body looks better and…

PB banana combo is crazy satisfying.

I'm a freaky streaker like Winnie the Pooh T-shirt and no pants, I dance the boogaloo. long live the King Adrock.

I work with a bunch of yuppies, taking care of other people's money and pushing around paperwork all day long. One day, I will quit this place in a blaze of glory. And I will make all my money with food and art and will be very happy. For now, I take one for the team.

I am a Michael McDonald fan... because so much of his stuff might as well be coming out of Kenny Loggins, and Kenny Loggins is the man.

But she doesn't notice the lack of vacuum tracks?

Mercilessly. Although there was a day when my big brother pinned the head *kitten* against the hood of his own car and told him to leave me alone, which was pretty rad. One of my biggest regrets though was just taking it, and feeling ashamed/embarrassed by it. I should have fought back. But I've thought on it as an adult,…

I know you guys say it all the time... but there's no way I could use my 1,200 calories a day on nothing but cake and lose weight. Maybe your bodies.. not mine.

A good beard and a sense of humor.

I need friends everyone. I'm not needy... I just like seeing other people's work rolling by on my feed and pushing me to keep up.

Aww but you look so happy with that icy cold beer. You need a new 'after' where you don't look so bummed to be beerless. Good work!
