Hi Michelle, I'm so sorry to hear about your dad. This loss would be just as devastating if you're 21 or 61. The only thing that will help is time, friends & remembering ls the good memories & experiences you had with him. Try to believe that he would not want you to be devastated by this. My dad told me that his passing…

I don't think anyone said soda was "good " for you in moderation did they...they said not harmful...in the quest for fairness, let's be accurate

Hi, I've sent PM's to 7 others from Louisville. Will we also invite So Indiana members? Thanks for initiating this new group. Tony

Great idea...I can get you a number of Louisville MFPers names or can also send them the link.

First, STOP listening to your boyfriend. Honestly, he doesn't seem to know **** about nutrition to put it very bluntly. MANY of us on here are dring protein shakes because we want the protein, not to bulk up. ((% of us on MFP are here to lose weight. If you have a significant amount of weigth to lose, I suggest trying to…

A friend of mine who was on a journey to lose a very significant amount of weight, rewarded herslf with a variety of items based on the progress. The most significant was a new JEEP when she lost 100 pounds, and a small lady-like tatoo for achieving different levels.

If the MFP calorie calculator determined you should limit your daily intake to 1290 calories which seems low for a person who currently weighs 268 lbs, it was because you must a) your activity level is sedentary B) you said you wanted to lose a signifigant number of pounds per week or C) a combination of A+B.......your…

Another MFPer suggested this website: www.scoobysworkshop.com This site breaksdown nutrition and workouts into the basics. It's a very extensive, information packed site that has a wealth of information on anything nutrition related. I hope this helps you.

Yes. & Yes...several...not at the same time though.MFP has some great potential for that purpose

First, don't settle or don't rush things. I married someone with a child (now my ex) and you have to understand if you end up living together that child living with you (girls that age are in a hormne raging drama filled life ) is a full time responsibiity part of your family. You will be responsible for driving them…

First, you are a beautiful woman. If you're really a tad bit soft I don't think 99% of men would never think about that. The 1% that would are probably body builders that are perfectionists and aren't worth being with long term...in my opinion. Most men will value your intellegence, your personality & your natural beauty.…

Also checkout www.sparkpeople.com they have a lot of exercise you can do at home with a few hand weights or resistance bands...these can be printed out to use at home or the gym.

Most here are suggesting walking however it depends how badly out of shape he truly is. Walking is very good, but its a bit more difficult to reach a heart rate that will put you into a cardio / fat burning zone because most can't walk fast enough at the start. Swimmming is excellent because it's easy on the joints and you…

I certainly can empathize with your your situiation. I too have had a hip infection that required a removal and it will be replaced in November...this isn't my first time either. I've endured a tremendous amount of medical challenges which also destroyed my career path. Yes some days I throw myself a pity party, but I look…

Even if you gave them in leiu of selling them, that is a CRIME. Narcotics are serious stuff. You & her would be arrested no questions asked. You would be charged & convicted of drug disribution. I think you should contact aaw enforcement. If she asking you, she's asking others too. She could be a dealer and not a user…

First...if this procedure makes you feel more attractive, desirable & it would complete your transformation, I say absolutely. It's about you- for you. If this is something you've always wanted you should do it because if you don't you'll have regrets. Since so many women have a new sense of confidence after an enhancement…

My girl...Intelligent, sarcastic,stunning, funny, thoughtful, kind, romantic, affectionate, great eyes, charasmatic partner and loving..to start...hot & rich would be a plus. I met one like that recently...on MFP

If you are going to ask that question on MFP, I suggest you send FR's out the men & women body builder / lifters who are extremly familar with this subject matter. Become their friends then send them messages. They will happy to help you. You need accurate information so you need to ask those that use the proteins &…

Let's not forget how our American culture has changed since the 1950's. Now we have most households where IF there are 2 parents, both are working full time and 1 parent households are extremly frantic juggling many many balls. We live in a society that is much more productive, more competitive and more time sensitive.…

LABS ROCK !!!! I've had two one black lab/great dane mix & a full bred chocolate ( who just left us 4 months ago). Both were fun, loyal, protective & so intellegent it was scary. I think I grieve more when my dog died than when some people I know have passed. They are great friends.....just wish they'd live much much…

Honestly, it sounds from a psychological perspective you need to proceed with the procedure as long as you don't have any underlining medical condition that would put you & your health at risk during the procedure. I say go for it because it will bost your morale, self esteem & confidence. I think most men would perfer the…

Wow..Dutch man...you sure have an inspirational story to tell...you should be very very proud of pulling yourself up and making changes in your life. You've learned that if you want to change you are responsible for doing what you have to . Now please remember that it's only been a little time since you stopped all the bad…

I'd suggest that you get fully involved in MFP, add friends, log your food and participate in discussions. You will get to know people all around the world. You'll see that many people are on here because they have the same (problem) that you are experiencing, you'll become friends with body builders who are here to tone…

Kyette..sounds like you might have yourself a know-it-all that always has to be right about everything, has to get the get the last word in during a conversation and might refuse to comprimise. I Had a spouse like that and still have friends like that. They just are iggnorant and foolish because in the end they are the…

You need to eat the 1200 calories after the exercise...because if you don't, your body goes into starvation mode...it will then "store food" because it thinks it will be starved again and you will end up gaining weight. Also, you need the nutrients in the food.

If you are accustomed to eating ( in moderation ) everything in 1-5 and give it up because of that article, I guarantee you, you will self destruct and crash. It's not realistic. Remeber, all these articles reflect usually just one persons opinion. I bet I can find you articles that say sugar is good for you. Everything in…

If you're accustomed to having red meat in your diet because you enjoy it, I personally don't believe it's realistic to eliminate it completly from your diet. I won't. I love cheeseburgers and refuse to give them up...as long as I'm the cook and I use very hi quality lean meat. I believe that it's healthier to make long…
