1. When you're in school don't focus on girls, focus on your studies. You're too young to do anything about them anyway, so you might as well be making the most of your time. There's time for them later. 2. Go to the biggest, most well known university you can afford. There's a reason it is large and well known and you…

Like this quote from my son: 'Salad is a promissory note that real food is on the way'!

Hey! I was diagnosed 43 years ago when I was 11. I pump Novolog. I've had pretty good success as I've lost 15 lbs in 13 weeks. Most of this 15 lbs was put on with sloppy control due to stress, overeating, etc. When I tightened my control, I quit using nearly as much insulin and the weight came of systematically. Now I sit…

That is great! You may not be able to tell the difference but others can. Keep up the good work!

1-2 cups a day during summer, unlimited in the winter. Almost any brand will do during the week, but I like to celebrate the weekend w/some good stuff, like Molten Chocolate from Fresh Market. Edited to say: And always black.

I weight everyday as it helps me make minor adjustments in my diet so that I can keep trending downward.

Definitely. Just like how MFP educates on the caloric value of the food eaten, so a HRM educates on calories expended via heart rate and allows you to stay in 'the fat burning zone'

WTG! Keep up the good work!

I was shocked at how many calories are in Bleu Cheese Dressing!

You look great man! Kudos on reading your goal!

I don't know what to do to quicken the healing besides consult a physician, but a trick we learned while in the Boy Scouts was to run hot water over the affected area (as hot as you can stand, obviously don't burn yourself). The area will itch like crazy while flooded with hot water, but he'll get 6-8 hours relief from the…

Thank u so much. <3<3<3 From my awesome wife after running an errand for her she did not want to do.

More 50+ folks here than I thought and a very hearty welcome to you!

^^^ this exactly! If you want to have friends, show yourself friendly!

^^^^ this is the only way to go, moist and tender every time. Update: Just checked this out on Alton Brown's website. It should be 165, regardless, use a thermometer.

Go for it!

Kudos Man! You look great and you've added a lot of healthy years to your life. Keep up the good work!

Don't spend much time in the gym yet, but what you're saying makes sense. You look buff, keep up the good work!

You sound like me. Once the drainage starts, I end up w/a chest cold unless I can get it stopped. Sounds like you've done the right things w/the Zyrtec and the Mucinex. Have you tried using a Netti Pot? I haven't yet, but when I was in to see my Doc last time I asked him about it and he is an allergy sufferer and uses one.…

I just got over something very similar. It took a Z-Pak, prescription nasal spray and a lot of rest before I was able to kick it. While sick I attempted to keep my calories under control (and did so), but my weight loss ground to a halt. My advice: get a lot of rest, eat the best you can and go to the Doc if you have too.…

Hey Anne, The last couple of weeks I've hit a threshold too. I started MFP seriously in March and lost a pound or more consistently every week for 12 weeks. A little over 2 weeks ago my progress stopped. I came down with a wicked chest cold, then went out of town and while I never went over my recommended calorie limit,…

I guess I'm lucky because I like cottage cheese plain. In Greek yogurt, I add some stevia and frozen blueberries. If I don't want the fruit I add either a touch of vanilla extract or almond extract.
-
Dude, that is absolutely awesome! Kudos to you!
-
Definitely buy. I got mine off woot.com for a few bucks. I use it several times a day and it makes certain items so much easier to track, especially if weight is in grams.

Congratulations to you! Wonderful job!

Keep up the good work, you're doing great!
