yeah, it's a side effect from the hormones convincing your body that you're already pregnant (which means we gotta prep the boobies for baby feeding) and therefore do not need to prepare itself to conceive (as is releasing an egg, no egg release, no conception)....or something along those lines, I've heard this somewhere…

less fries won't make them fat and die either. edited because I didn't mean to be a jerk and I'm sorry if I sounded that way :ohwell:

after imagining what that would look like, I want to roll around on the floor laughing! :laugh:

I honestly don't know if hypnosis actually works, but for kicks I have bought a couple subliminal CDs :P my first one was titled "pass your driving test" because I HATED driving while I was learning and was always stressed out. what was cool was that the CD I got had a "silent" track that you could play but wouldn't hear…

I'm not jiggling, as much, while wakling :drinker:

I should be studying right now for my last final exam of the week, but I'm messing around with MFP :) I just changed my ticker picture too hahah....

so far I love it with fruit, especially pineapple! I love it plain too... recently I've had it with some cayenne pepper sprinkled on top over an english muffin, OOOHHH and I love eating it with pan seared salmon or with pan seared seasoned chicken <3 I have heard of and want to try adding salsa or cucumber

I don't lie, I procrastinate like crazy though and manage decent scores...it's 6am and now I'll go back to studying for my 4pm final today :grumble:

hmm, that sounds like one cute pizza hahah, portobellos are big but I've never thought of using it as a pizza crust, does it turn out crispy or soft? I usually use a wheat pita

hee hee, I ADORE my bf's biceps... I giggle like pre-teen little girl whenever I feel them after he flexes for me :blushing:

a friend of mine recommended I read them 3 years ago, but at that time I was into more romances and mysteries, so after I saw the trailer for the movie and after all the hype, she let me borrow her personal copy of the series haha, went through them in 2 days and then saw the movie LOVE THEM. LOVED THE MOVIE. CAN'T WAIT…

I just got a HRM, the New Balance Pearl :bigsmile: I went through 40 minutes of Jillian Michael's Extreme Shred and Shed and had an average heart rate of 144 through out the video, as compared to 70ish at rest I plugged the average into two calculators online, one said 530 calories were burnt while the other said 512....…

I just bought a HRM so when I used it to figure out my average HR I forgot that it counts calories too and cleared the data after my workout :blushing: oops I googled and plugged my average into a couple calorie calculators I'll have to compare numbers after my next workout to see how consistent the they are:smile:

ooh, I've got lots of battle scars, mostly right above my hips and on the thighs, they range from 2-3.5 inches long. the longest one was from probably christmas weekend ( battle of the beef stew, rice crispy treats, gingerbread cookies, shepards pie, and egg nog) and then there are the smaller ones from battling too much…

spotting happens for a lot of reasons, even if you're not on BC, you could be spotting from high stress, changes in diet/exercise routine, changes in hormone levels, and etc sometimes your body will decide it's not in optimal condition to "re-stock" your uterus completely before your period so you get some spotting if in…

same effect after starting MFP for about a month or so. been on BC pills for almost a year now and halfway through last month's pack I had some spotting and now I'm back to normal :flowerforyou:

ok let's say your daily goal is to eat 1500 calories IF: instead of eating 3 meals consisting of 500 calories each through out the day, you fast for lets say 19 hours and give yourself a 5 hour period to eat ALL 1500 calories, BUT NO MORE THAN THAT. :noway: if you eat more than your 1500 cals in that period you're supposed…

not gonna lie, got a little palm on face cheek action as we speak, along with some face-palm action in response to some of these comments haha

i realized it after joining MFP and reading all the success stories, which unsurprisingly did not happen overnight but over many months, and just let it sink in My hopes were to reach my goal weight my june 15, and that was about 3 months ago hahah now I'm just hoping to reach my goal by New years because that's about the…

:noway: you. look. AMAZING.

3 AND 4 !! the designs and colors look nicer on you than the first two!! :love:

agreed! if it's not something you do regularly and causes you to start huffing and puffing after a while, I'd log it. whether I eat it back depends on how I'm feeling after all that walking and what choices I have to eat otherwise, HAVE FUN!!! :flowerforyou:

YEEEESSS... chipotle :love: I have always gotten a burrito with steak, no beans, corn salsa, cilantro lime rice, cheese, and sour cream and since MFP, I've switched to just a bowl and brown rice, keeping everything else the same If I could, I'd eat there so much more often, but that would cause harm to my waist and wallet…

I'd second the water weight and under eating concept From what I've learned on MFP, your body retains water to help repair the little muscle tears that happen when you work them out, I'd give it a few days, making sure I drinks lots of water and avoid foods that can cause excess water retention. I just started JM's 30DS…

I'm going to spend a few days at several malls and just try on all the clothes I was never able to wear because of the bulges around my middle I like the idea of getting a tattoo but it's not gonna happen until I figure out what I'd actually want pictured on my hip xD

I've been using Bio-oil for a few months, cost wise it's not so bad and my stretch marks are fading slowly, they're also not reddish colored anymore :) like everyone else said, the way to go is to : moisturize stay hydrated exfoliate

congrats on getting to level 2 and dropping 4 lbs!!! I tried doing level 1 via youtube on thursday morning and only got through the first 20 minutes of the video (plus cheating because I can't handle the cardio parts very well yet) I'm STILL really sore, and I totally understand the above knee pain!!! It hurt to walk,…
