Actually I talked to her on text after that and everything was okay ... maybe I was worried for nothing

Maybe it won't be a good thing to bring anything up - I feel it will just make things more awkward, and it's not like I look like any super model myself so its whatever. Hopefully she forgets about it by Monday... I should learn to not talk so much!

I agree. Honestly I feel a lot of pressure from people about the fact that I'm 35 and am single. It often feels like the end of the world. But I really believe that love happens when it is meant to happen...

Yes your right. I shouldn't immediately be thinking about the future etc. I just have to slow down my mental train that's going 100 miles a minute I guess...

Hi Everyone, for those who read this thread, I did finally tell him that I'm 10 years older than him. He still seems interested in talking and getting to know each other. So I'll just keep talking to him I guess. I just have to be careful not to get too emotionally involved and just think of him as a friend. I actually…

That is helpful. I try to do the same thing - If I go over one day, I try to stay under by that much the next day - or I don't eat my exercise calories.

Okay that is helpful information.. my goal right now is to try and meet nutritional goals and to stay on task with being able to lift more at the gym. My goals right now are more about gaining strength and becoming tone vs just losing weight on the scale...

This is what my weekly digest looked like last week...

Thank You for this link - it is very helpful

I am not a beginner.. I've been lifting and workout out for a few years... I used to weigh 175 and was a size 12/14. Then I got down to a size 4 and was 130 lbs. For the past 5 years, I try different lifting programs and meal plans, work out, and am around 147 and a size 8. I'd basically just like to be less flabby and…

Pretty close 1187

Do you guys think I should tell him about the age difference before meeting up with him?

So I’m 35 and he is 24. I asked him his age but he didn’t ask me how old I am as of yet! When I met him at the club I thought he will be around 30... but he’s way younger. He’s just asked me to hang out ...but since I really liked him I don’t want to get emotionally caught up... I have a hard time thinking that someone 24…

As promised .. day 2... 1250 calories .... I didn’t get to workout today but I will tomorrow :)

True! I'm honestly a fan of cooking, and that's why eating out seems difficult to me sometimes. I ended up having the sweet potato quinoa bowl, it was pretty good.. quinoa, black beans, onions, basil, kale, sweet potato.

@Amerek412 - Thank You!

Thank You.. it's very hard to not be focused on the scale. But I'm going to try. I'm 5'5 and 146-148, I'd like to get down to 136-138 - seems impossible sometimes!

I take it that it's a no from everyone lol

@aeloine - Yes that is what MFP gave me. :) I am trying to lose 10 lbs. I weigh 146-148 and I'd like to be 136-138

Thank You! Yes, my goal weight is 135.

I do track my calories. But I do go over goal a lot as well. I'm setting a 30 day goal to stay on task.

I do have a food scale. I will start using it.

I am 5'5 and my weight as of this morning was 151.5

Thanks for the suggestion guys!

Hello All, thank you for your responses! Actually this friend of mine often comes to me for diet advice because I have lost weight and kept it off. I just wanted another opinion because I know what works for some people does not work for others. I myself try to go with foods that are more nutritious and will help me reach…

So that's what I ended up doing. I just ate whatever all my friends ate and tried to log everything. I also tried to save a lot of calories for dinner yesterday. I had 985 calories left for the day by the time I made it to dinner. I had 8 or 9 boneless wings with the following sauces (Parmesean Garlic, Honey Bourbon, Asian…

I logged and was over the past four days and had some baked chips at night tonight ... but gonna go workout in the morning and I’m not gonna let anything get me down this week!

This is the second week and I’ve done it so far !

Ive actually been lifting for several years now! I just started using mfp seriously and hence the question about calories burned. I've been lifting and going to the gym for 10 years now. I started off a little over weight...175 at 5'5 and got down to 130 at one point - now I've been in the 142-149 range (up and down) for…
