False. Good thing too; I'd be heartbroken if I couldn't have milk and cheese! TNP is planning to go out tonight.

False. I can ride one, but I haven't done so recently. TNP can't get through the morning without their coffee.

My 14-YO daughter is about the same height and weight. I would be shocked if her doctor told me any of those things. She's a coxswain on her school's rowing team, and it's really beneficial for coxswains to be small (think like a horse jockey but in a boat!). Anyway, her coach (who has a solid background in nutrition) told…

Welcome Tara! I'm also a single parent around your age with kids who are 21, 16, & 14. Feel free to add me!

Woohoo! What a great feeling that is!!

I'm currently preparing for law school exams, which are insanely intense. I've got three 4-hour exams and an 8-hour one coming up in the next two weeks. If I don't keep up with my exercise routine I really notice it with regard to my mood. But, at the same time, I also feel like I can't afford the extra time. However, my…

False. Never heard of it. TNP loves mushrooms. (the kind that's food)

About 1200 a month for me and two teenagers. I get meat from a local butcher, dairy delivered from a local farm, some of our fruits & veggies from the farmer's market, and everything else from Kroger or whatever big grocery store is nearby.

Welcome!! Ouch!! It's hard to do much of anything when your knees hurt. I had ACL surgery a few years back, and rehabbing was quite a challenge. As far as exercise, consider working out in a pool. The water will take the weight off your knees and probably make it less painful to work out. Good luck & feel free to add me!

Good job on cutting down on the soda!! That's a great move!! :happy:

False. First day of my Hunger Games challenge is today, and I'm ready to kill it!!! TNP skipped breakfast today.

Enter food in your diary in advance. That way when you get hungry you already know what your meal will be and you won't get tempted by standing in front of the open refrigerator trying to decide what to eat.

Nope. I'm a cat person, but dogs are nice too. TNP hasn't exercised yet today.

Try drinking more water every day, not just on the days you eat a lot.

I let Fitness Frog do the calculating for me: http://www.fitnessfrog.com/calculators/tdee-calculator.html

I'm not sure. It's not mine. It's from this internet meme: http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/lawyer-dog

You can do this! You, yourself, wrote that you lost 30 pounds before. That's proof that you can do it again! I'm reminded of that phrase about getting back up after falling off a horse. Just get right back up on that horse, get back on a plan of healthy eating and exercise, and repeat to yourself, "I did it once, & I can…

D'oh! Why didn't I think of that?! Thanks!

My favorite had a Gary Larson cartoon on it saying "The real reason dinosaurs became extinct" and showed them smoking cigarettes. I had it for over 20 years and LOVED it, but I lost it in our last move. Currently, I just use plain ones.

law student---soon to be in-house counsel after graduation

I've drilled this into my teenage son's head so well that he even pays for his female friends' meals and similar things, even though they're just friends and not dating. And he opens doors, pulls out seats, rises when a girl gets up from the table, walks on the side of traffic when they're walking on a sidewalk..... (I'm a…

Owl City (it's a band)

I don't think there's one 'right' answer for every couple. However, in my situation I've never paid for a date with my boyfriend, and we're going on 13 years. He's very chivalrous and would feel offended if I tried to pay. He says it makes him feel good to be able to care for and provide things to the people in his life he…

cleavage!

I took up running when rehabbing from ACL surgery. My PT, along with the local running store Fleet Feet, recommended Asics Gel-Nimbus because of the cushioning, as well as it fit whatever my foot type/running style was (I can't remember). I've gone through several pair now, and I love them.

Daily, because I find the fluctuations interesting to see. I only log my weight once every week or so though.

Do you think many people will be willing to admit that?
