I'll try it.

Old friends.

At this point, 17.0 pounds. The start was on February 17, 2014, so it has been approximately 5 weeks - 35 days tomorrow. I am eating an average of 1840 calories per day, light aerobic "normal activity" workouts - no weights or stairstepping or treadmill, average burn of calories per mfp is somewhere around 200-300 per day…

This will likely be my last post here because of time constraints. % body fat three weeks before starting my 'diet' was 30.9. Percentage body fat at this point, four weeks in (so seven weeks later is 29.6. Lean mass has increased by approximately the same as the loss seen. I am a researcher with backgrounds in mathematics,…

As far as coming back to this thread and bringing all up to date to 'satisfy your need to know', I most probably will not. I work. I work a LOT. and in the summer I work a good solid 18 hours out of every 24. In two months or so, I will be quite busy, and MFP by itself will be a chore to keep up. So, unless one wants to…

BMR - 2116 start; 2035 present. RMR - 2280 start; 2184 present. Just a fyi.

The only REAL difference I made in the diet, per se, is cutting out snacks (i.e. unsalted peanuts, candy, occasional soft drink, popcorn). I did not change the sodium content other than that. Additionally I added cardio and weights, with the cardio on two days of carb shading, weights on two days of enhanced protein. Both…

look in to the Fast Metabolism Diet - I've seen some negative reviews of it (claiming it's super low calorie, etc.) but that is pure hogwash if you follow what the nutritionist who wrote the book says (Haylie Pomroy). I've been on it for 3 weeks and one day as of today, I have lost 12.8 pounds - very respectable, have…

Add me in if you wish. I'm supportive and have friends that will add you as well who are the same. Ignore the crude people. We're better than that.

I was spanked - not whipped - by my parents if I needed it as a negative reinforcement to prevent future behavior unbecoming a child. They stopped when I was about 8 or 9 because I could understand reason then. We spanked our children - not whipped - when our boys needed the same. Under pressure from peers we stopped when…

Made evident by the "global warming / climate change" hoax of the past fifteen or so years. Many of the same 'scientists' were claiming some 40 years earlier that we were approaching a 'new ice age'. What is the quote about statistics, damned statistics and liars? I think it boils down to whatever a human being can dream…

Unfortunately, you appear to be part of an extreme minority. With lawyers pouring from the woodwork in most cities and states, competition for a dollar is extreme and anything that smells like money is going to be attacked with great vigor. Some lawyers are quite honorable. So are some politicians. But both are the…

I would add that you need a balance in strength training and cardio. I do mostly cardio because I walk like a maniac with what I do after my work, but strength training is needed because you need to maintain the large muscle groups - back, arms, chest - that don't get much workout in cardio as much as you need to maintain…

The prosecution did not seem to have much of a case. And the lady that was put on the stand - the one talking to Martin on the cell phone --- honestly, she did more DAMAGE to the case than anything that Zimmerman could have said. From the point where she could not read her own statement, to where the testimony kept…

Put MFP on your smart phone and "test drive" what you want to eat before you eat it, then modify as needed. It works if you do it.

It isn't 'yelling' or 'whistling' that is the problem, my friend. It's kidnapping, raping, murdering for the "thrill of it" that is the problem. I'm sorry your country has deemed its honest citizens to be so untrustworthy as to have taken all means of self-defense from them. The complete fallacy in that philosophy is that…

GREAT post. And ladies, listen to what this woman says! She speaks Wisdom.

Some things are changing even in DC. It seems the Constitution is being slowly rediscovered. Recent USSC decisions have improved your lot - at least now you can possess a firearm now - used to be you couldn't even do that, not so long ago. There may be hope for lawful people to live in DC without fearing the nation's…

It really isn't being paranoid to understand that there is evil and evil people in the world that would harm others simply to get a kick out of their distress. I sympathize with those who cannot carry weapons in self defense. Your government has done you a great disservice. For those who can carry weapons, learn to use…

Very true. Here is a good option for ladies: http://flashbangholsters.publishpath.com/ And a video regarding the use of the option: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8r6CY5UZyw

I agree totally. There is little as intimidating as a barrel pointing at your center mass.

and oh my goodness, you make Yummy look good!!! :D:D:D

It really doesn't matter if all the evidence points toward me... they will NEVER believe that I did it enough to convict!!!

OMGosh@!!! I Love Saturdays!@

My wife and I cause "the wave" .... lol~

I have been a training instructor and technical advisor for a Fortune 500 company for many years, and have always maintained pretty tight control of my 'actions' by using judicious breaks during classes. All failed me one day... I was instructing on the use and repair of a particular machine, and had 15 of my new students…

Oh, and by the way, TEACHERS are NOT in classes to teach YOUR CHILD "manners and respect, etc.". They are there to teach classes. It is the PARENTS who teach manners. It is the PARENTS who teach respect. If YOU don't do that, there is NOTHING a teacher can do to make it happen FOR you. So teach your own child manners.…

Oh come on ... lighten up for goodness sake! Topic's not so "hot" that you have to "try" to be a fireman! People are here to support each other and lose weight and hopefully have a little fun along the way. Bodily functions are bodily functions - and they do just that - sometimes one simply 'gotta' do it. You really do not…

Anyone that wants can add me :D
