Wow, all of those ideas sound so good. When I had a job I would take them to work and put them on wheat thins or something like that for a snack. I guess I need to expand my mind.

When my fiance and I first started dating he told me that he didn't care what other guys thought, he liked girls with small breasts like mine, not big ones like his ex (and I was a 34D at the time!!!).

Yes, walking is exercise. I walked everywhere when I was a teenager (often I just strapped on the headphones and walked out of boredom) and never thought of it as an exercise, but I could eat whatever I wanted and I never gained weight. When I graduated from high school and moved in with a boyfriend, I stopped walking for…

I'm glad that you like it. I'm sitting here waiting for FedEx to deliver mine. They delivered a package here earlier this week at 10:30 am and it's almost 11:30 now! It's killing me!

I'm in the same boat. I have been the committed user that I need to be and somehow my weight has slowly crept up to close to the 200 mark, which is a first for me.

If you have a dog, you can try Pooch to 5K. It's the same idea as C25K, but with your dog and it takes 3 months instead of 2 months. My dog and I just started it about a week and a half ago.

My bf, who I only spend weekends with, is about 265 lbs. He claims that he can lose it anytime he wants to. I've gained the majority of my weight while dating him because he loves to feed me comfort food and in the past would almost throw a fit if I didn't finish all of the food on my plate (that he served me....the same…

Pittsburgh, Pa is the world record holder for bridges with piers and stands contained entirely within city limits, beating out Venice, Italy, the previous record holder by 3 bridges. There are many more bridges in Pittsburgh that are not counted toward the world record as they lack piers.

I always had clear skin as a teen. I washed my face with baking soda (which I still do on occasion, love it!). About a year ago (age 37) I started breaking out terribly around the lower part of my cheeks/chin/starting down my neck (probably stress related). I was going to pick up some Proactive, but I found that Wal-mart…

I can go either way with facial hair on a guy. My boyfriend has a chinstrap and mustashe. He screwed up once trimming it and shaved it all off...I hated it. As for me, I always shave my mustashe :laugh:

The first 2 weeks of C25K and P25K are the same. My dog is a lab/shepherd mix, so she's a perfect running partner for me.

I'm doing the P25K (Pooch 2 5K). It's a 12 week plan and since it involves the dog, I'm obviously doing it outside (even though my son wants to get a treadmill for the dog because he saw it on a movie). I've heard of people doing C25K indoors and outdoors. I think it's a reasonable plan, but if you feel the need to take a…

I don't have an answer for you, but just to clarify for everyone, it's NOT her pee.

I didn't realize that you were in Pittsburgh! I'm over here at IUP (Indiana University of Pennsylvania for those of you not familiar with the area). I have a bachelors in Criminology from IUP and I'll be graduating with a bachelor's in Accounting in May '13.

I was on Match.com. It tried to match me with my ex-husband, lol. The majority of people I met on there were players. It was kind of good for an ego boost though.

Dated for 3 years, and now married for 11 years...the last 3 years have been the best because he moved out 3 years ago (so we're technically separated). We get along great now. I can talk to him and no longer feel the urge to kill him.

Yes, it really does make a difference. You look great!

I'm 38 but I like to tell people that I'm 40, does that count?

I work midnight until 730am. Sometimes I'm up for 24 hours at a time, so I created a meal called work food. So, I might eat breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and work meal. Days that I don't work, I don't eat my work meal and depending on the day, I might only two meals if I'm only up for 8 or 9 hours. Some days I'm a…

BUMP for later :wink:

He also doesn't know how to spell my first name and usually mispronounces my last name. But he does know that my eyes are '*kitten* brown' (or at least he called them those exact words when when first met).

I know my boyfriends phone number...it's speed dial 9.

Maybe it's just me and my lack of rhythm, but I HATE zumba for the Wii. I can't seem to figure out what the moves are that they are doing because it isn't an actual person doing the moves, it more like a shadow (hard to explain). And sometimes it tells me that I'm doing the correct movements, but I know that I'm not. I…

I'm 5'7", a college student (again) and trying to lose 30 lbs. I started at 1200 cal but I found that I just couldn't stick to it so I upped it a little. I don't work out enough right now, so I need to find ways to sneak it in. I'll send you a friend request.

Computer Operator in the IT department of a hospital (midnight-7:30am). I've been there for 11 years, before that I worked in a convenience store for 7 yrs, about 6 of it was 11pm-7am. In school right now in hopes of getting a day shift job!

I'm another night shift person here. I totally understand how hard it is getting up and getting motivated to workout.

I work the midnight shift (luckily only part time...3 nights a week), go to school and I am raising a 9 year old boy. I've gotten into the habit of only being able to sleep 3 or 4 hours at a time, but usually I sleep for 3 or 4 hours, up for 8 or 9, and then sleep again for 3 or 4 hours. So,it's like I have 2 days to…

I just don't like soda in general because the carbonation bloats me. Otherwise, I don't have a problem with it, although I tend to just ignore what the news says about it.

Do you know what a serving size looks like? That's probably a biggie, since you won't have anything to measure with even if you do order healthy. Here's a site with serving sizes compared to real life items (there are tons of sites like this, I just googled it and picked one):…
