Hmmmm. I wonder what the ancient Mayans, Egyptians, and Chinese would think of this definition of when "science" was "invented."

My inner circle is varied in color, gender preferences, and politically to the old left. We vary in size but the common denominator is "very active" --cycling, hiking, swimming, dancing, walking, protesting.

This. Particulary separate bank accounts.

I'm 61 and have about 12 lbs to go and want to reduce my BF%. I am also an avid cyclist. Add me if you would like.

We seem to keep ourselves entertained with outdoor activities/games/sports in the summer. I recall the programs many of you cited, but I don't think we spent all that much time watching television. I remember the Ed Sullivan Show -- all the plate spinning acts, stand up comics (George Carlin!), the Beatles, Mamas and the…

You Are Your Own Gym, as others have suggested, is also an app you can download.

Thank you for the resource.

Agree with the poster above . Applegate is my go to meat/cheese deli cuts. I am carefully pace my use of these products due to the sodium content on a given day.

Bump and thank you

Unfortunately, this may well be the case, particularly without a start date from the other employer (which in itself is odd). Being on the "other side" of this equation, if one of my staff gave me notice, verbally or in writing, that they had employment elsewhere, I planned to find a replacement as quickly as possible. I…

I've gone from nearly 100% humidity and heat in the low country of SC to 45-50 degree cool dry mornings. I've switched from mid thigh compression and shorts or no sleeves to leggings, short sleeve with a light cycling jacket, or arm warmers. I still wear fingerless gloves and figure I won't need full gloves and long…

I like Pete and Gerry's the best. However, I think their distribution is limited among New England states, maybe Mid-Atlantic region. I usually buy Trader Joe's organic eggs, and occasionally Eggland. The best eggs I ever ate were while I was staying on a farm. Can't get any fresher than that. I wonder if the cases they…

I'm 4'11" and consume about 1600 calories daily. I am in the last stretch of weight loss (I lost 27 lbs using another site). All of the calculators, including MFP, are estimates. Your height is already factored into the various equations. I'd suggest at least upping your calories to 1300 NET. In addition to the unfortunate…

I'm 4'10" and 60 yrs old. I consume around 1600 calories daily, some days more, and cycle between 20-30 miles every day. I already lost 27 lbs using another site and am in the final stretch here. I suggest you go to the fattofit radio site and calculate what your maintenance calories should be and your TDEE (total daily…

Although yoga and its various forms are often treated as "exercise," it is an integral part of the way many people embrace living, and its practice has nothing to do with gender.

Excellent.

I think ElegantElle recommendation of taking a walk is excellent. Maybe a conversation with your husband, "honey I need you to cover me on _______________. to help me with my weight loss efforts/fitness efforts" as far as tending to the day to day stuff. Since the bulk of that will still be on you, a book like "the Five…

Agree. Get over it. You can't control their behavior, only yours.

Just gorgeous! Wow. I love the second one and would add it to my package. I enjoy cycling so my package would include a collection of different brightly colored and "fun" cycling shirts and matching socks do rags to wear under my helmet arm warmers that are printed like tats cycling bottoms for all types of weather…

I am postmenopausal since I was 40. I recommend that with your next gyn appt (not regular MD) you ensure that all your questions are answered concerning the hormonal changes and their implications for your body (think of it as reverse puberty). A book I found very enlightening, "Younger Next Year," describes t he aging…

My Mom had an uncanny resemblance to the actress, Kathyrn Hepburn-- very slender, patrician angular face. She was often stopped by other people because they thought that is who she was. I was an obese toddler, child, teen and young adult (during the late 50's and early 60's when fat kids were few and far between); and she…

If you are cycling, Terry bikes offers beautiful cycling jerseys and cycling knickers, capris and compression shorts.

Gorgeous! My pitbull Bonnie sleeps on our bed. I don't mind if she cuddles up near my pillow as long as it isn't the butt end.

OP, First, it sounds to me that you are quite determined to achieve your fitness goals, particularly since they are tied into a commision as an officer in the navy reserve. I can't speak directly to binge eating; except to recommend that you in your food diary track 1) trigger foods which could be based upon taste,…

I consume around 1600 calories, sometimes more. I don't buy into the petite (I'm 4'11") post menopausal women (I'm 60) should restrict themselves to 1200 cals. I also cycle 20- 30 miles daily.
