CONGRATULATIONS!! What an accomplishment - you should be very proud of how far you've come!

I typically get up around 4:45 for an a.m. workout & get to the gym around 5:00 or so. I will sometimes do a spoonful of peanut butter or a mini Larabar, but not always, just depends on what workout I am doing (just cardio or weights & cardio). Right after my workout I have a protein shake & will usually put a little pb in…

I have used a fan for as long as I can remember. I would agree with the PP - if it's too loud, get a quieter one or just turn that one down to a lower level. If I am somewhere & don't have a fan available, sometimes I will leave the fan in the bathroom running to have some sort of noise.

I agree with others about it being a personal decision. I know I wouldn't let someone decide for me whether I got one, what I got or where I choose to have the tattoo on my body. I am all for them. But for me, I definitely took into consideration where I've gotten the 2 I have mostly for work reasons. <---- just got that…

Great post! I didn't get the impression from your post that you were being pushy with her. Sounds like she's taking some control now - with your words & actions helping her.

I'm also a fan of this. Sometimes a splash of cranberry.

I don't discriminate against men with hair but my preference is a bald man. Love it!

I can't get it sized right - oh well! At any rate - it's on my back & is in Latin - "Alis Volat Propriis" (she flies with/on her own wings).

If you go to the tutorial message board it will show you how to upload pics. I'm still working on re-sizing the one I am trying to add.

Hilarious! Thanks for the afternoon laugh. :laugh:

I agree with PP about just going for the wax! It hurts (some areas worse than others) but you won't regret it. It's quick & the pain is over about as quick as it starts. I purchased an ingrown hair serum from the place I go (I also get my eyebrows, lip & underams waxed there - the serum will work for all those spots) &…

Congratulations!! Excellent NSV!

I WI once a week & record that weight (be it a loss or a gain). My start weight I have re-set once since I originally entered it a year ago when I joined MFP. I just re-set it this week (the 'one time') because I have put on over 10 pounds in the last year & wanted a 'fresh start' with the accurate number. I was getting…

I've ever had quinoa before but have a box sitting in my pantry. I have heard good things about it from friends so I figured I'd buy some but have yet to try it. Sounds like there are plenty of options on what to do with it & some good suggestions here.

Congratulations to you (& everyone else who has lost &/or gotten back into onederland) - great progress you've made so far!! Keep up the great work. :) I will get to onederland again - working on it one day at a time!

I just got my second one on Saturday. I have been tracking my food for just at 100 days & told myself when I got to a certain point of tracking I would "reward" myself, so the new ink was my reward. Mine is "Alis Volat Propriis" (she flies with/on her own wings).

^^ This.

I'm dressing up but have no idea as what yet. I'd like to do something along the lines of Marilyn Monroe's material girl.

Congratulations - excellent progress! You look fantastic!! Keep up the great work. :)

^^ This is what I did as well - just created my own & input my calories burned from what my HRM tells me after each class.

Nettajon - I googled the c25k program initially & just printed off the day/week intervals i was supposed to do. You can download the app (or similar ones) generally to any smartphone. OP - I recently re-started the c25k program. I don't love running & I'm not great at it, but I do it. I am overweight & haven't run into any…

I weigh in once a week (Monday mornings) at home. I used to do WW & go by their suggestion of only weighing in one time/week because your weight does really fluctuate a lot throughout the day & I don't want to get hung up on just that # (I like to take into consideration overall health & what I'm losing in inches).

I always eat the edges or 'around' my sandwich first too - I have no idea where I get that from though since no one else in my family does it. I eat my least favorite first & always save the meat for last. I also cannot stand it when my food touches so I either have to have separate bowls or plates for things or like a…
