I mean how can it be Resse's puffs? They don't even have a manic wild eyed cartoon character selling you their product...unless you count E.T, but he phoned and went home ages ago.

I'll eat cereal on occasion....but only with half a cup of low fat cottage cheese instead of milk. Works well with cheerios.....not so well for cookie crisp.

This won't be even remotely helpful, but I was a pretty big kid going into middle school, but then my parents started giving me lunch money and that money went straight from their hand and into my piggy bank, thus lessening the calories I was eating in a day and thus causing me to lose weight. Now, you can argue this…

First soak them in water then place them in the freezer for two to three hours then go to the nearest overpass then....ohh wait....we aren't talking about the same thing are we.....carry on. In all seriousness it was salad for me. Instead of ham sandwich or tuna sandwich, ham and tuna salads, instead of hamburger or hot…

People not putting their dogs on leashes at the park, part of this is just psychological because when I was six my brothers leg was thrashed by a dog while I hid and cowered in a tree... No I take it back, it is all psychological. I am terrified of dogs so please keep them on a leash.

Do you feel like the reading and research helped or was it more of the instruction. Just curious because I feel like the internet gave me a false sense of bravado and security which lead me to my latest fish fry. I felt I didn't need to go to the gym and have someone qualified show me the ins and outs of weight lifting…

I live in a similar area, not a single flat plain for as far as the eye can see. I'd recommend walking as you want to make exercise as easy as possible, and nothing beats just waking up and being able to walkout the door and get it done. Once you get bored with walking i'd recommend trying to jog, just be sure to take it…

Yeah I know but I have twelve hour work days on Fridays Saturdays and Sundays, so anything more intense then a light jog is going to knock me off my feet, or affect my performance at work. I'm the most in shape guy there (which is sad) but as so, anything heavy is my problem. I'm on my own "clustercuss" routine which I…

It's all about the time. I wake up and exercise, I don't have thirty minutes for some food to be doing the rumba in my belly while I run...although, now that i'm thinking about adding weights to my routine, i'm thinking of adding a protein drink....but I really don't want to wake up at 4 in the morning just to guzzle down…

Baby Carrots, are my everything! They are a great replacement for chips, french fries, nachos, and doritos! Also what I have with my coffee in the morning. Baby Carrots, you HAVE to love them.

Now that i'm looking would it be more beneficial and economical just to pick up a rack and a bench separate if all i'm looking for is the ability to bench an squat safely? *just saw that someone recommended this to me last week, so shout out to SexyStef, I think that is what I may do.

Couldn't get web md fitness tool to work so I came here....only to find i can't get the tools to work here either (i'm using obsolete technology), so now I just use google docs (Week 5) and just come here to weigh in.

I'd have to wake up probably another 90 minutes earlier to make it out to an actual gym, so not really in the cards, (although if I wanted it bad enough i'd go after work) I am thinking about dropping 3-5 hundred dollars on some basic gym equipment, so if anyone has any suggestions to what the bare necessitates are for…

Yeah It's kind of a hodgepodge of exercise I saw online, I only have the barbell and dumbbells. Would you be able to run after one of the programs your suggesting? I willing to wake up thirty minutes earlier to get some weights in but I feel like I probably still need to be doing cardio 4x a week at least until i'm down to…

You only eat once a day all the time? Is that in the morning mid day or night? In any case I dropped a hundred pounds with a "cheat meal" once a week, I found it kept me motivated to do well through out the week. My cheat meal would come early in the day, like 10 to 11 o-clock and would consist of 1500 or 2000 calories,…

Just going to drop this off here and let everyone come to their own conclusion. Fit Bit Fraud Lawsuit

Had something to say but lets face it, there is no other reason to get in shape. Bravo good sir.

I know people swear by Fitbits-- but they are really expensive and more or less do the same thing as a 20 dollar pedometer. I'd save that money for--- well in your case, diapers and more diapers. I agree to a point, you should keep a few of your favorite things (like crisp apple strudel and schnitzel with noodles) but your…

The first step I made on my own personal quest to lose 100 pound was cutout all liquid calories and anything with mayonnaise, it was quite a challenge switching out my once delicious sweet and creamy coffee to something black and bitter (actually had to start by chugging it down cold to get use to it.) But it had to be…

At a young age I got my head stuck in a fishbowl, causing my father to explicitly say, in less then gentle terms, "Way to go dumb *kitten*, guess we don't have to worry about you ever getting a PhD!" And thus Doctor Fishbowl was born!---or in this case stuck. It's actually quite traumatizing to have to go thorough life…

That can't be the end of the story! The guppies of MFP need details DANGNABBIT! But truth be told I too once idolized a one, Taz the Tasmanian Devil. I have fond memories roaming the outback---of Baltimore emulating my would be tornado hero. Waving my arms erratically, yelling and screaming in inane speech, even…

Well exercise makes me feel giddy while eating low number of calories makes me cranky so it's kind of a 50/50 split for me. I just started going to bed early, didn't want to hang out with my stupid friends and their delicious food anyways.

I regained 15 pounds once I stopped, so this time i'm going to make sure I stay on top of it.

Eating has become such a cultural and and social process as oppose to being strictly the means of acquiring energy and nutriment that I would agree; Short people get the short end of the stick on this one, and will be paying a HEAVIER price for a night out on the town.

Well that's good because it means i can double down on my question then; So are you referring to his skits in the classic Loony Toon cartoon.... or his stand alone show in the 90's? https://youtube.com/watch?v=4d0Ld53Fp0Y

As in Taz the Tasmanian devil? And if so......why?

This man has his *kitten* together, well done. edit: ah the kitten asterisks mystery is now solved! I was wondering what the *honk* was going on with all the *R2D2 Beep* kitten sound effects all the *Kame Ha Me Ha* time.

To lazy to look this up and apparently iv'e lived in a dark fish bowl all my life, but why are people calling people kittens, and whats with the asterisk? Are you emulating the sound of a kitten? Is this a compliment since kittens are cute, fluffy and adorable or is it an insult because kittens are cute, fluffy and…

First break: 2 Hard Boiled Eggs and black coffee Lunch: Ham Sandwich, Baby Carrots and more black coffee Second break: Peanutbutter crackers and *drum roll* even MORE black coffee. Which ever you do i recommend making it boring and simple, i tried varying it up early on but that just tended to lead to disaster.
