I was 'dating' at twelve, lol. It was more of puppy love...such as the school dance or a group 'date' to the movies with a parent in attendance. I didn't truly start dating till I was 14...yeah not a huge difference it seems but a lot happens maturity wise in two years. At 14 I was dating an 18 year old...an no...nothing…

Soups, pasta, pizza, roasted veggies with protein, greek style yogurt and a gyro. Yes...all these can be healthy if you make them yourself. Lunch has always been the most fun meal of my day...sometimes I have more of a breakfast style lunch with whole grain home made waffles with PB and a side of fruit and greek yogurt.…

X-Men! I now own then series on DVD. :bigsmile:

It...I watched it when I was a kid...and I am terrified of clowns. The first scary movie I watched was Nightmare On Elm Street...I was 5...I had nightmares for weeks. I should note that I love most horror films...any genre and 'grade'...even the B rated stuff, lol.

As processed as they are...Goldfish crackers. They are still a huge weakness for me and I avoid buying them. I have tried all the healthy alternatives but they just don't taste as good...so I'd rather go without, lol.
-
YES! While I actually am on here to stay in shape and not lose weight...my stomach looks horrible due to pregnancy. The stretchmarks have faded and the skin is as tight as it's going to get. It's been nearly 8 years and it looks about the same as it was a month after I had my daughter. I miss the 6 pack I used to have. I…

I go for PB on bread too, I stick to natural PB and whole wheat bread. Another thing that I really love is berries in fresh homemade whipped cream. Sometimes if I want something sinful I'll have a square or two of Lindts touch of sea salt chocolate. It satisfies the sweet and salty craving and isn't that bad for you…

We share that same problem, lol. The guys in my local running store, REI, and D*cks know me by name....not a good sign. And go for that 4th pair of shoes! I have 4 pairs...two trail, two road so I can rotate them between runs. I don't take my dogs with me because they could not keep up even if I wanted them to. I always…

Add in some grains and good fats. Brown rice, steamed veg, a little olive oil. Since your vegan (or I assume you are)...does your dining hall provide any protein options you could add in? Any tofu, seitan, mushrooms?

While I live in a good area...I still carry mace with me in my hydro belt along with my cell so I can call if an emergency happens.
-
Head lamp is a must! Lol. REI has a great stock of reflective gear for runners...I tend to run at night as it's the only time I can really fit it in...and you need the reflectors. There are some vests similar to what police officers wear that are highly reflective that you can slip on over just about anything. Better safe…

Oh...I have way too many! Fall is by far my favorite season, however...my favorite thing is that it's time for camping! Sure...I'll camp year round but in the Fall it just seems magical some how. The cool breezes, the campfire, the crisp smell in the morning, the food you cook, percolator coffee, the beautiful colors....I…

Be proud! Those pics prove one thing....you rock!

Footlocker and similar stores are not going to have staff members that know what they're doing. You need to go to a store that actually has a tredmill in the store and they will watch you run. Some stores (like the one I go to) actually video tape you and measure your gait, pronation, and if you heel strike. Check out…

:laugh: I really needed this laugh! Awesome!

Friday: Hanging with my kiddo...having a picnic and just being silly. Saturday: Dog park, getting in at least 6-8 miles of 'wogging', and maybe hanging out with the guy I've been dating. Sunday: Church, hiking, apple picking at a local festival.
-
Ditto! Just because my Brooks Cascadia fit me to a T doesn't mean they'll fit you. You need to get fitted to see how you run, your gait, and how you pronate. Also...if you heel strike or not. I'm horrible at heel striking and thankfully I prefer trail to road so my knees aren't too banged up...yet. I'll probably have…

Adopt!!! Check for any local Boston rescues if you can. They will match you to your perfect dog and will help with the transition. While I've never owned a Boston I do have a few 'terrors'....our pack consists of 4 JRTs, a chihuahua, a tweenie doxie, and a chi/jack mix. They are the best...all animals are. I've worked in…

I have a nice long hike planned for Sunday and it should put me over the 200 mile marker...finally. My bad knees are causing way too many problems. I should have hit 200 over 3 weeks ago. Grr. This is one Hobbit that would have been captured by now.
-
I have two siblings...both male and are 10 and 11 years older than I am. I was basically a single child but had the benefits of having older siblings when I needed them. I have a daughter that is almost 8, I'm divorced and in no rush to have another child yet. I had never planned on having children of my own...I had wanted…
-
Bring it on! I'd have to hide a few certain items because I'd totally murder them both if they trashed my band shirts, Tripp clothes, and my work-out clothes. Now...they would highly approve of my work apparel I already own...lots of Loft, Talbots, White House Black Market, NY &Co....but my weekend apparel is so dull. I…

Not yet...however there are a few people on MFP who are. I know UltraRunnerGale is one. She's a pretty kick butt lady too...awesome friend to have.

Who loved last nights episode??? I'm stoked that we finally know a bit more about McGee's family!

Person: Christopher Heyerdahl...Stargate Atlantis/Sanctuary Object: the library...seriously. The smell of books...I'm a total book *kitten*. I read 2-4 novels a week...truly an addiction. Edited to add: BBT! Sheldon cracks me up. I'm currently 'walking to Mordor'. Dragon*Con....I wasn't able to attend this year. :(
-
I was going to try to hit the 200 mile mark by Saturday. I don't think it's going to happen...my hip has been uber sore, ugh. Maybe I'll hit 200 by the end of the month. :) I must state...I am loving the cast for The Hobbit movie...it's going to be epic!
-
Actually you left out quite a few that were added to the original line-up.... Spider-Man Spider-Woman Captain Britain Protector Red Hulk Wolverene My pick is Thor!

This will probably be against the rules and this thread will get shut down or I'll be banned. But if you really think that declawing is okay...watch this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1W7F_XNmzXg&feature=BFa&list=PL09BD101220BF5325&lf=results_main

I love all my Under Armour, REI, and The North Face winter collections. I usually only buy one new shirt or leggings per season because they are so pricy. But they sure keep you warm...they wick away any moisture and yet you don't lose your body heat. Remember to wear a hat and gloves...they'll keep your core temp warmer.…

On my morning runs I do it fasted...in other words I don't eat (also...this is before breakfast...I eat once I'm done). If I do it later in the day I have a snack half an hour before a run. If it's a run that will take more than an hour I take a gel or bar with me to keep my energy up. It all depends on your body. I am one…
-
There are several that I want...an no...I won't share, lol. Get something that has deep meaning to you...no one else. It won't be special if there is no meaning involved. For the person tha quoted Dean Karnazes....you are awesome!
