Bump!

These sound great, thanks for the recipe!

Hehe, so thought we would give it one more chance THEN tonight he said he is concerned that I will turn into one of the people in WalMart that are too fat to walk and need the whatever that wheeled thing is called. I was angry, mortified, offended, but found the strength to laugh in his face. Yes, we have broken up...

Wow, came back to my post and found 20 pages of responses... woah! Last night I won a spin burnout competition, 36 competitors, I told my guy and his response was "wow, glad you are doing something to get yourself fit and our relationship better, now we just need you on a nutrition plan". I realised that it is a hopeless…

I agree here and in fact we had that discsussion a week ago today. After we went hiking and he was huffing and puffing and I was running all over the place I suggested that while I continue to get FITTER (I am no slouch), he quits smoking so that we can continue our outdoor walks and hikes with more ease. Also, the money…

Thanks for all of the constructive comments and the messages I've received. So much to think about, especially some of the perspectives offered that I had not thought about. I am not obese, I am not ugly and I have a lot to offer someone, hopefully my guy will realise this before I get to the point where I have had enough.…

I am not sure if that is entirely true. On the site I am on almost every guy indicates that he wants to be contacted. I sometimes see the same person visit my profile 5 or 6 times and they never send a message. On the other hand, I am 39 and receive a good amount of messages every day so, maybe there is hope for more than…

Many big time career women are perpetually single, regardless of location. [/quote] Sadly yes this is so true :sad:

I should be starting August 30 - moving to a new country and taking Insanity with me!

It really is tough, I am so new onto the online dating thing and see that dozens of guys look at my profile a day and out of those dozens I tend to get 3-4 messages. Not complaining, I know that is not terrible but it does make me wonder what those other dudes are thinking when they look at my profile lol! My self esteem…
-
Good for you getting back in there! I just started the online dating thing a week and a bit ago and well; I don't think it is for me at all, in fact I already decided to get off OKC as of today. Looking forward to hearing some success and some more updates on your journey; I admire your determination with this, I don't…

Well it's been 24 hours since joining and about 30 people looked at my profile and there are messages from 7 of them... going to go through now and see what's what....
-
I finally joined OKC this past weekend; my first foray into online dating. I have a lot of guys looking at my profile and have two messages, both very generic by the way. I sent out two messages and nada in return. I will stick it ouf for a couple of weeks but WOW I can tell it is already a bit brutal on the ego lol!! I've…

Ugh! This could be me. I actually got asked out more when I was heavier; so that's not the issue. I'd love to meet someone great - probably need to be a bit more optimistic that there is someone out there for me.

As a Jamaican (well half Jamaican) - I gotta go with BOLT!
-
Very inspiring, you look amazing!
-
That is some excellent advice! For me, also going slow and steady with a few hiccups along the way. This week will be a year on MFP; I lost 35 in 2 years before and 20 in the last year. I see progress when I eat balanced meals, stay around 1450 net and work out about 45 minutes per day (strengh and cardio) 5 days a week. I…

Chris Hoy, beautiful blonde Scottish cyclist - those legs. Not to mention he's a "Sir" (knighted by the Queen). Holy hell :tongue:
-
Agree with the above!! Thanks for the link to the article, gave me a good laugh. Ryan Lochte does nothing for me, great body but so what. The grills and his obsession with "fashion" - just Yuck.
-
Where I live there are few places to go outdoors to safely work out. Not to mention, it's rainy season - that makes it tough to get out there too! If I book a spin class or head to the gym, I'l get my workout in. Yesterday I tried to meet a friend for a hill walk but the weather did not cooperate. That's why.
-
I'[m a Wolf! Wow it is really accurate. The rugged wolf is athletic, good-looking and brimming with self-confidence. A close relative of the domestic dog, it is stronger and more aggressive, managing to generate notoriety wherever it marks its territory. The wolf's dark reputation is mainly due to jealousy of its…

Single... blah!!
-
Well, talk about turn of events. We stayed in the friend zone for the past couple weeks BUT he has been keeping in touch. I admit, so have I. In the past week though, something made my gut kick and I acted on some instinct. Today came to find out that he is in fact in a committed long distance relationship with someone…

Work out at least 5 days per week Stay within my daily calorie goals at least 6 days per week Limit alahol to 1 day per week Hopefully staying on target will result in at least 4 lbs gone... we shall see!

I am not particularly insecure or scared of a relationship, would love not to be single and think I have a lot to offer, but no idea how it will realistically happen. I live in a small country where the number of good looking, educated and single women far outweigh single men. The men here are very spoilt because of the…
-
Awww what a great story, can't wait to hear how it turns out! I was in the same boat, kind of - lots of paralells to your experience, we met on MFP, started challenges together to keep each other motivated and accountable, 3 hour time difference, talked and enjoyed that BUT unfortunately, he's not interested in this long…
-
In my gym, I guess the ladies area is the aerobics room? :huh: When I am weight training there are usually only a couple of us women around but I have my music in my ears, and am always a sweaty mess. I just try not to make eye contact with anyone when I am working out, I really am antisocial I am afraid :ohwell: . Once in…

I regret that after about six months of hard work and losing a good amount, I became complacent for four months and put back on some weight. Instead of getting to goal in May, I am still plodding along and hoping by October I'll be there. :frown:

I'm Indian and Scottish and live in the Caribbean but people often think I am from Spain, Greece, Venezuela, Guatemala, Dominican Republic, Syria, Turkey but most often I get Spain...

Hey, I can relate - seven years ago (as of yesterday) I had a near fatal accident and through my two year recovery I put on 70 (yes SEVENTY) pounds. At the moment, I have lost 55 with 15 more to go - it has not been easy but it isn happening. Good luck to you and MFP is a great place for the support, advice and motivation…
