love the game - im about half way through - really gives you something to focus on instead of the pain/strain in your legs/lungs etc and I find myself pushing myself more.

1. What is your eye color? Gray 2. What is youre favorite season? Spring 3. What is your favorite Holiday? Christmas 4. Have you ever been arrested? Nope 5. What are 2 things with in arms reach of you right now? water bottle and a dog training clicker 6. Would you rather know how you are going to die, Or know when you are…

sadly when I was 15 I made up my own called the chocolate milk diet. breakfast was a bowl of cereal, lunch was 1 litre of chocolate milk, I felt so full I wouldnt eat most of my dinner...gave me lots of calcium but dont think it was effective in the least LOL I think I just really liked Chocolate milk.

well as promised I am updating to let you know how I did. it was very intimidating when I go there. I can honestly say that I was the ONLY person there that was remotely out of shape. most of the people that were running that day were part of the towns Cross country team and was using it to practice for some other event. I…

Thank you all for the great advice, Im sure its just a case of nerves. I am by nature a very shy person and don't normally do the group thing so this is a big step for me in gaining confidence which is why I wont back down. it is a halloween themed run so I decided to go as a bank robber - that way not to much costume…

looking great! you should be very proud of your progress! Keep it up

I think you have to be happy with your body. so its not what we (men) prefer. its you that has to be happy with it. if you look at your legs and want them toned up then tone them up. When you are happy with your body, your mind, your soul. then the right man will come along and love it to. because the one thing that turns…

my brother made me a salmon sandwich when I was 5 years old without taking the bones out of it first and I choked pretty bad.....I haven't been able to eat any kind of fish ever since. I like seafood though I can eat lobster, clams, crab, shrimp etc. I always say if it crawls along the bottom I can eat it, but if it swims…

My wife and I have signed up for the World CP challenge. Starting today we are pledging to take at least 10,000 steps everyday till the end of September. so far on my lunch break I went to the gym and walked on a treadmill for 30 minutes. this will keep me active and doing something everyday for the month of September and…

well I can't speak for all men but I can say that stress can kill the libido for sure. if he is worried about various things and feels like he is being pulled in a 1000 different ways then it can be hard to perform. the unspoken thing about stress as well for me is that if I am stressed it usually means I don't feel like…

I can totally relate to your frustration as I have currently done the same thing. I stopped logging and poof, the weight came back. I thought I had developed the habits and patterns to make the right decisions to keep the weight off or at least not put it back on but turns out I haven't. it makes you feel like you want to…

Very brave letter! I sure hope she receives it with the love and care that it was meant to have.

I tried to acknowledge that the battle is won in the heart and the mind. if you can dominate the battle in the mind and heart then the body has no choice but to follow. I realized that I had to be honest with myself and find a way to acknowledge my faults and bad habits and then tried to find new ways to overcome them. I…

mine would be "if you believe, then you can achieve"

Your sister's antics do border on the side of psychotic. in short she is a bully and from what I understand, bully's pick on people because they themselves are not happy with their lives. its almost a defense mechanism. I would attend mothers day activities but I would be suggesting an activity that does not involve food.…

try to remember why you joined this site and decided to try to loose weight in the first place. you weren't happy and wanted a change, so giving up and going back to what you did before isn't the answer. you weren't happy then, you wont be happy now, instead I offer the suggestion to try something new, if what you are…

Amazing transformation that is great! and the fact that you ran a 7k I find very inspiring!

My office is the same way, we host a lot of meetings for clients and they are always catered and the left overs are left out for anyone to grab. this is everything from Pizza. Chinese food, donuts, pastries, cookies, you name it and its here on a daily basis! The way I try to avoid it is I try to remember that this is…

do you have any food you tend to eat to try to keep your calories down while your sick?

I could not agree more!
