30 Female, Bi Cameron, North Carolina Age Preference 29-42ish Planning on moving to Wilmington, North Carolina in the next year or two, but my company has 2600 locations in the US! :)

Anyone come up with a game yet?

In the last year I have quit smoking and lost weight... I have found that especially your family and those around you who you engage in bad habits with (both of my parents are smokers, my mother and brother shared the same eating problems as I had), tend to subconsciously wish that you would not change your lifestyle…

You'll have to join our Spinsters United Club :)

We need a Spinster's United club or something :)

Am I the only spinster on here? D:

ZUMBA! It's so much fun and you aren't concentrating on just working out, but learning the dance moves, so it feels less like exercise :) I also do yoga because it is low impact, keeps me feeling centered, and helps keep me from getting hurt while doing other exercises. Mix it up! Working out shouldn't be so boring!…

ooohhhh.... I am trying out War of Immortals right now, but I am up for trying anything. Oh yeah, add me as a friend too! :) Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

I went all day in yoga pants (and was not doing yoga) and huge tshirts. I was having a hard time sleeping because I was so uncomfortable. I could barely make it through the day without a nap. I was not spending enough quality time with my son. On March 30, 2011 I quit smoking and I decided, if I can quit smoking and be…

Good luck! Just focus on one day at a time... I am several months into it and that's how I have handled it :) Add me as a friend if you like, I try to be as upbeat, optimistic, and motivating as possible! Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

This is too funny, I signed on and saw this topic after watching Big Daddy where the last scene they have a birthday party (for an adult) but with kids present at Hooters and I was just thinking about how kind of sketchy I would feel having my 7 year old son there.

I feel similarly. The truth is the President is not ALL powerful! He cannot change everything, including and especially social issues. Look at other hot topics across history, slavery, women's rights, african american rights, abortion rights,.... these are not decided by one person, but by growing consensus across the…

That is too funny!

Such a great first step! I see all of the inspirational responses you have received, but I have to add mine too! I am halfway to my own goal and I remember the same feelings. One day at a time sunshine and you can do it! At first I was frustrated at the "slow" weight loss, but the pounds add up quickly and next thing you…

Dear 16 year old me: Just because your parents say you can't go to any other college, it doesn't mean you can't put yourself through college. Do not accept limited expectations for yourself, work hard and make some phone calls, there are people out there who will help you - get yourself out to the west coast, because yes…

I am 5'3" and when I started MFP almost 2 months ago I was over 190, I now weigh 178. My calorie base is 1400, I work out about 6 hours a week. I don't always eat back my exercise calories, but sometimes I do. I have seen very good and steady results and every time a pound comes off, it stays off! Following the guidelines…

Love this one! and I never thought I would be able to look into the mirror and smile again! Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

Tell her to get back in the kitchen and make a pie to go with all of that!

Bump!

Mine is a simple one that I used to quit smoking and now I am using to lose weight "No more excuses!" Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Weight Loss Tools

There is a diet plan (really it's a lifestyle change) for people like you, I am on and have lost 32 pounds so far, I eat right around my calories (without exercise) each day and am never hungry! I eat 5-6 smaller meals a day, and at the end of the night I usually have plenty of calories left over for a tall glass of…

Stretch, stretch, stretch! I started my weight loss journey by doing a run/walk, but I kept getting extremely sore and out of breath. So I added in an hours worth of yoga before I went and no longer have those issues. Take it slow and enjoy the time you spend doing it and you will go back for more :D Created by…

YAY! I quit after 12 years of smoking over a pack a day almost a year ago. I used Chantix, but I quit taking it after about 2 weeks after my quit date. It worked great for me. I never cheated at all. The best thing to do is once you decide to quit to never take another puff again, because before you know it, you will be…

have not had the focus I needed to keep going! <3 MFP!!! Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Nutrition Facts For Foods

If you want to calculate zumba calories try zumbacalories.com. I compared it to my heart rate monitor and it was pretty close. I love zumba, but I do mine at home on the wii.
