  • I as well was in quite a state the minute Carlisle's head flew off....the friend that I went will actually got scared because I reacted so violently! Then remembered that Stephanie Meyer was one of the movie's producers and knew that something had to be up because there was no way she would let all that happen. Then I just…
  • I don't think of it as a "cheat day" because that implies some kind of hidden action that I should feel guilty about! I have made the conscious decision that Sundays are my days off! I don't have to go to work....i don't go to the gym...I don't count calories. I spend the day enjoying my time with my friends and family at…
  • I find that anywhere that has a cut called "curvy" or says that is it made for more curvy figures is usually the way to go. They are cut for larger hips/butts but smaller waists. I know both old navy and the gap have created cuts like this. you might want to check them out.
  • so first of all, I work at Starbucks so trust me, I understand the temptation! I get them all for free when I am at work so that makes it especially difficult, but it also means that I know all of the secrets!!!!!! First of all, When you feel like treating yourself, consider this. Our typical recipe for the Eggnog Latte is…
  • I was the music box ballerina in the Bobby Vinton Christmas show in Branson, MO for one season when I was younger.....other than that, I consider myself a rock star at my job so I'm kind of famous everyday!
  • To become as hot and sexy on the outside as I feel on the inside....and to end this 27yr single streak!
  • When I first signed up for the site, I put my goal loss at 2 lbs. per week and it only gave me 1220 calories per day! I told a nutritionist friend of mine about this and she said it was way too low! But when I changed my goal loss to 1lb. per week, it bumped me up to 1600 calories per day which she said is much more…
  • Only been active on the site for about a week and already have confessions! 1. I spend more time on MFP than working at my job. 2. When I have a bad day, I stop logging because I don't want to get even more discouraged. 3. I really hate the "rate somebody" forums...I think they are counterproductive to the whole point of…
  • Hey darlin! Feel free to add me! I'm always looking for friends who will be active motivators! I joined a long time ago but never did anything with it. Now I am back and better than ever, doing what I need to do!
  • When I was in college, I was studying musical theater which can be a very appearance-based industry. it was the end of my freshman yeah and I was already getting sick of the entire atmosphere of judgement. No one had ever said anything to me outright but there were always suggestions that I needed to lose weight. At our…
  • kuddos to you my friend! I think it is incredibly important to pat yourself on the back every once and awhile!
  • I am a devoted friend, fiercely protective of my people, and strong enough to handle anything that get thrown at me! Oh, and I have fantastic dimples!
  • Great taste in television!!!!!
  • I was just wondering the same thing! I tend to eat ALOT of protein throughout the day...mostly because alot of the things I like are high in protein (turkey, chicken, etc.) so I find that some days I am eating almost double the protein that I am supposed to! I am eating under on calories usually so my question is whether…
  • was at work and had someone ask me if I was the assistant manager! She said that I am so good at my job I just seem to be in charge! Made me feel so good because I have been trying to move up in the company FOREVER and it is nice to hear that my efforts are being recognized!
  • I've heard that running can be addictive! Personally, I am still in the place where you were before you started so I have trouble believing that, but just know that you are apparently not the only one!
  • Eat some protein! Seriously, it is probably just some midday exhaustion kicking in. We all feel it. But I find that if I push through it with what I am doing and have a little snack for a pick-me-up, I can usually push through it. Also, I find that thinking about how I am going to feel in the morning knowing that I was too…

  • pick one or two days a week to do some exercise with the kids! it is a great way to get them involved and interested in staying healthy. If some of them are too young, do it during the young one's nap times so that they can rest while you and the older kids get some exercise in! There are alot of videos and routines geared…
  • ok so I was once very similar to you in the fact that I thought a personal trainer would be way too expensive but let me tell you IT WAS WORTH IT! I signed for a 1 year contract (I would only recommend a 3 or 6 month though) and learned so much! A trainer will help you figure out what you need to be doing for strength…
  • I actually love listening to the movie scores while I am working out! I LOVE Twilight and BD1 because they are Carter Burwell and I think his music has been the best, but the other two are good as well. They help me imagine that I am a kick *kitten* vamp who is strong enough to make it through anything! 1 hour on the…
  • Welcome to the community Matt! I also recently joined and the outpouring of support I have received has been so helpful! Don't be afraid to reach out to the community with questions, celebrations, or even just the occasional need for a kick in the butt! We are all here for the same reason and we all want to support each…
