I joined POF about a week ago. Met up with the 1st person last night and he was really nice and normal! I have noticed looking in the profiles that a lot of guys like to use 2 phrases which I guess they think will be a big hit with the ladies? "I like the outdoors" and "I also enjoy relaxing on the couch and watching a…

^^^Amazing. Congrats on all your successES!!!! Way to go!

Thanks for posting this. I am saving it to read later! Looks intriguing.

There must be something in the water! I joined POF last Thursday and yeah tons to cull through. I came up with a generic "i'm not interested" that I send right away to those I know it wouldn't work out well with. Actually having ongoing conversations with 3-4 really interesting potentials and a date for drinks with 1 of…

Sorry you are having to go through this. About 6 months ago my brothers dog (13 year old Boston terrier) started havin seizures. It's a scary thing to go through. They would mostly occur when she was in a deep sleep and she would foam at the mouth and release her bowels. The vets did blood work and determined she was…

I love mustard! (2nd to ranch of course) but I like to eat mustard on sweet potatoes & dip my bread in the ranch (haven't done this in forever though :cry:) Also... regular sliced dill pickles on lay's potato chips. Great at summer BBQs!

Saltine crackers with a sliver of cheddar cheese and a slice of pickle on top! Mmm

bump to read when I need a good laugh. My story though... we were hanging out at his house me 18 him 24 and he just kinda tossed it out there... "I love you, you know?" then "I think I could live with you the rest of my life and be happy, will you marry me?" He couldn't keep a job and thus couldn't buy a ring so he gave me…

bump for later

I am working through it now. FYI I saw on another post where Jillian Michaels had a podcast and suggested you do 2 days of Level 1 then a day off then 2 more days and a day off etc. I don't know if this means you should still do 10 days of each level (as implied by the name) or if the off days would count towards the 10…

Do you have a warrant out for your arrest in Florida? :huh: I have another one I thought of today and its fairly new. I have an issue driving next to 18 wheelers. There was one recently that was taking a corner too fast and fell over on its side on top of another vehicle. Scary! I try to reassure myself that if its my time…

I lost 1 of my best girlfriends to a guy. We used to hang out at least once a week until she met her current bf and moved in with him :-/ I've tried to set up a quick lunch or drinks after work but haven't seen her in about 10 months. I think it's a struggle but there has to be some give and take. Both people should keep…

I've tried WW a couple times over the years but I prefer MFP. I still eat some of their frozen dinners. I found the points to be frustrating and would focus on things like oh I can eat 2 plates of whole wheat pasta a day even though it's not good to eat that in a day. MFP just seems to be more well rounded in tracking…

Jessica although I get called Jennifer a lot :grumble:

My type is kind of fluid. I have dated the cowboy, the redneck, the music junky, the tech geek. The only things that stay the same are: 1) Taller than me - shouldn't be too hard as I'm 5'6" but you'd be suprised. 2) Good work ethic - if you can't hold a job, I don't want to be your sugar momma. 3) Likes to play hard but is…

I think you are in the minority at least from my experience. Short hair is so much easier to fix (for some of us) and I've been told it looks more professional (I guess as opposed to those with long hair that wear it in pony tails all the time?). I love my short cut and have had it for 2 years or so now but am growing it…

Ok this is my first time posting pics in a thread. Sorry I couldnt find any pictures of the back of my hair. It is basically really short because I don't like having the weight sitting on the back of my neck. It gets too hot when working out. The pics are newest to oldest. Current: (Evened it all out to grow out for a pony…

^^^ this is one that I had for a while and love! I have had short hair styles for several years now (though growing it long now). I'm on my phone but can post a pic tomorrow when I get on a computer.

Thanks for the pointers. I ran cross country for 2 years in high school but thats been a while so I know it won't all come back at once. I'd eventually like to do a mud run or color run as those seem to be a lot of fun and I like to play in the dirt :smile: But yeah I'll let you know if it looks like I'm going to be able…

Congrats! I started C25K today. Week 1 wasn't too bad but I was afraid to push myself too much on the speed. Have you kept your running and walking speeds fairly consistent week to week? I'm always open to pointers!

I agree with the text-speak although I do occasionally do it (mostly with friends that can't seem to type normal, want to make sure they understand my reply :wink:). My big stupid issue is with house cleaning and this probably comes from having a disgusting brother as a roommate. I am in no way OCD or a clean freak, I only…

If it was a 1st date maybe I would chalk it up to nerves but being the 2nd date I'm not sure I would waste the time of a 3rd date on him. Granted I don't date much but I also believe in not wasting time with someone you don't feel comfortable with. I know relationships need time to develop but if you know without a doubt…

I'm looking into it. Its $35 for the 10k if I register by April 24th so I am going to wait until the 20th to decide. I hate running but am doing the C25K. I'll see how well I am doing in April to see if I think I can make it a full 6 miles in June!

My son is 6 and currently going through a gross phase... where it is funny to burp and fart and the worst is... he won't wipe his butt when he goes #2. I have to constantly remind him or check on him when he is in the bathroom. Boys can be so gross. Edit: And yes he is potty trained has been since 3. This problem has only…

I agree with these ^^^. And would have every able bodied scientist working on cures for all the cancers, Alzhiemers, MS, and all the other horrible diseases that plague the world!

I love this and need to remember it. My best friends parents told her you have to be 18 or older to go inside Toy's R Us. She grew up in a small town without one and actually was 18 before she went inside one!

LIKE!!! Good Luck :wink:

You might also try C25K. Couch to 5K. Its a running program for beginners. I hate running but I am making myself stick to it. Its 30 minutes and 3 days a week/9weeks. I googled it and printed out the running. Its intervals. Today was my 1st day and I burned 375 (by my HRM).

Bump.... does no one have any input?
