Lol, I feel that way too sometimes. I'm so great at procrastinating it kills me. My excuse for not logging? Killed my iphone and the phone I have until I'm eligible for an upgrade in September won't let me download the MFP app. Yes, I could log online, but of course I don't do it. I'll just wait until September, right? How…

Well! In my bigger days I used to down a Popeyes 3 piece meal, biscuit and soft drink included. Nowadays though, I struggle through eating a full two pieces and rarely am able to eat the biscuit. And only drink water with it. That makes me happy. God that Popeyes is so good. But it makes you feel soooo awful after.

For both you and OP, though I'm not sure OP will be a huge fan (based on our differing opinions of Jane Austen and Joseph Conrad. Like Heart of Darkness for you, I have way too many versions of Pride and Prejudice): Nathaniel Hawthorne's Blithedale Romance. One, it's REALLY well written. And writing is the reason I stay…

I hate when anyone references WoW. Or fantasy things in general. It makes me crave it almost more than I crave sugar.

I am the same way. I bought skinny cow ice cream sandwiches ONCE. And never again. Because I ate them all in one night. Sigh.

Maybe we should. I'd rather talk with him about it first though, because I do like the guy.

He's discussed it with me. We are definitely supposed to be exclusive.

DITTO. Seriously, it was a one night stand. We met at a bar. And then he's like, is that all this is? And the problem, @sillygooseie, is that now I'm supposed to be in an exclusive relationship. So basically I'm not allowed to look for other men, but I'm not REALLY in a relationship. It's just annoying. I'd rather be…

Boo. I am in a similar situation. And it's driving me crazy. Why are we exclusive if our relationship practically doesn't exist? It's not like I'm the one that said let's be bf/gf, so why do I have to deal with having a semi-present significant other? I think I'll talk to him about it when I see him...this weekend...unless…

No. I'm losing nothing. No inches or weight. :frown:

Great video, you definitely had me tearing up a few times. You seem super sweet and awesome and I hope it goes your way!! If not, I have faith that you can stick it out yourself and one day you'll be running that half with your husband!!

I'm in a really similar situation and curious to hear the answers. I'm at 155 also. And had previously been at 147! Grr. I had a few bad weeks of eating and at the same time I started heavy lifting and I've been steadily at 155 for about two weeks now. And nothing is changing. NOTHING. Sigh. Hoping it just takes time?

ditto. Color me not happy!! :grumble:

Hey! I think swimming till your arms are exhausted is a great amount of time to swim. I have a hard time focusing in the pool, which is why I joined a summer adult league. At practices, we stay in for an hour. Usually, I get to the point where I don't feel like I can finish, but I do. And I love that feeling of exhaustion.…

I am proud that I was able to run six miles! Something that I never EVER thought I would be able to do. I am proud that I was able to do ONE HUNDRED REGULAR push-ups yesterday! Mixed with three minute intervals of running...I almost died yesterday. So I'm proud that I kept it up and did all ten sets, even if I had to…

Amazing story! Thank you for sharing!!! You look great :happy:

Awesome! I've been training for a 5k but have yet to actually complete one. Which leads me to... I'm doing the Zombie Run too! Mine is not until September though. It's wayyy away. And I'm doing the Rugged Maniac in August. I'm so excited to try the obstacle courses! Everyone looks like they have so much fun!

I found myself in a very similar situation a few months ago. Meh. I wasn't technically in a relationship with my friend, but it felt like one. We were really close, could talk about anything, held hands, fooled around, etc. I moved away (graduated from college) and things obviously came to an end. And for a while, I just…

I have a REALLY hard time logging my weight gains as well. In fact, I haven't logged my most recent gain of just a little under ten pounds (thank god it's finally starting to go back down). I was so excited to get under 150, I can't bare the thought of changing it again so soon. =[ But, since you posted this, I may…

I really enjoyed that article! Thank you!

I'm curious about this also. I started lifting about a month ago, but I want to stick with running and ideally, I would like to complete a marathon. But, if I weight train on MWF, have swim practice (adult swim league, yay!) on MTW, and work my second job Thurs, Fri, and Sat nights, the only day that really leaves me to…

LMAO. LOVE this list!!! Thanks for posting. Hopefully I can run through some of them before I crave also

I'm so close!! well, kind of. 5'8, 22, 155lbs. Trying to get down to 135-145, I'll stop where I'm comfortable. Definitely going slowly. Soooo slowly...

HAHAHAHA ditto! Although, I usually end up getting a small snack after I've gotten nicely buzzed on an empty stomach. IHOP at 3am on a Saturday night, best food EVER.

It was hard for me to balance at first too (I just started about a month ago). It got a lot easier REALLY quickly.

I did the minute plank. crunches kill my back as well.

Can I do a minute plank instead? I'll even do it at the office...mwahahaha

Great post and you're awesome for fighting through it. That's the one thing I hate about running, how mental it is. It's so easy to just say you can't do it and get off. It's a constant war. When I was running on the treadmill, if I had my incline at 2 and my brain decided I needed to lower it because it was too hard, I…

I like the double-stuffed ones too, and I was at Wal-Mart a few weeks ago...and they had like triple-stuffed oreos or something equally awesome!! I was fighting so hard with myself. oh my godddd. the sugarrrrrr.

Well, I am too. Every day. I have a ton of stuff to do, but I also am a first-class procrastinator. I usually waste time the first half of the day and then spend the last four hours buckled down, getting *kitten* done. And that time is very quickly approaching...
