Anyone care to crush on me???

LOL, I love this post!

Why have an entire day of eating nothing but what the community labels as "bad"? It may take some mental effort, but if you eat those "bad" things in moderation and incorporate them into your daily diet then you should be good to go. I'm in the Army living in Korea in a set of BEQ that doesn't have a full kitchen. I do not…

To each their own. I actually lost only a pound or so with MFP, BUT I enjoy the company I get here and the fact that everyone is motivated. My loss came when I started on Weight Watchers (only online, it's way cheaper). I know not everyone can afford it, but I'm just saying that THAT'S what did the trick for me. I think…

Congrats on your decision to wanting to get a tattoo. I will add, aside from what you've already listed, the inside of your arm near your arm pit supposedly also hurts like crazy (at least everyone I've spoken to - and I'm in the military and there's a lot of Soldiers who have tats there - has said that hurts like crazy).…

Definitely would like to join. SW: 158.6 MGW 1: 153 MGW 2: 148 MGW 3: 143 MGW 4: 138 MGW 5: 133 GW: 127 I've lost almost 10 lbs so far. I've changed my eating habits and workout habits as well.

Seoul, South Korea - missing my home of Fort Bragg, North Carolina, and will be reporting to Fort Carson, Colorado at the end of this year. All over the place is home for me :)

Which is exactly what she said :wink: I think she was restating the question so that some folks wouldn't get confused reading the OPs question. HOWEVER, your statement I would imagine IS correct. I don't see how the machine would take your BMR into consideration even if you put your age and weight into the machine. I think…

Lots and lots of motivations out there I see, and many of them I share with you guys. But my primary motivation is ME. I am the only one who can actually make the change. Influencing factors to making this change are my job where I HAVE to meet certain weight requirements, getting back into shape after a serious surgery,…

I concur with you. I weigh myself pretty much every day. I noticed that of course, like most others here, my weight fluctuates. But I record my weight when it goes down past the last recorded weight. I do this only because I'm curious to see if I will actually lose an average of 2 lbs a week. I suppose it's all about…

I haven't really kept track to establish a pattern since I really just now started the road to weight loss, but I have noticed that, during this past week during my cycle, I had absolutely no issues continuing to lose weight. However, I will attest to the cravings of chocolate and other easy quick carbs that are a complete…

I think that commenting is a good thing. I haven't read any of your comments, and if I have I definitely don't remember lol. But I think that giving your opinion to a question someone asks is fine, as long as you don't start an argument since some of these threads can become heated battlefields.

Bump! It's clearly been some time since someone has posted to this thread but as the OP was, I am also curious. I am saving up for an HRM, but I want a good one and am sure I'd end up paying a lot of money for it so it will be a while. I've been wearing heels, of course inter-changing with flats since I also run in the…

I must agree. I've done a bit of looking around online and came across this article. http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/nutritionsource/healthy-drinks/sugary-vs-diet-drinks/ I find that it's about moderation also. I'm not a medical professional by no means, I just find that we have these discussions to find what each others'…

I definitely think that I can participate in this. Never knew this existed until you posted about it yesterday. Thanks!

If I was in your shoes I would google the general description of the exercise. MFP does not have ALL exercises on here, so when you DO find the name and it doesn't populate, you can add an exercise. When you do so, you will need to know how many calories you have burned, which you could probably find out through other…

Henry1969, Yes, just click on the "MY HOME" tab, go to settings all the way to the right and then you should be able to change it there under Diary Settings.

Do people always have to look and interpret comments negatively? What's the matter? I was backing her up nonetheless! I was merely giving an example firstly, secondly, an individual had posted information regarding the OP's prior wall posts when the individual was "befriended" to her. And thirdly, you're merely giving your…

I'm not a doctor or a nutritionist, however, I've spoken with nutritionists in the past regarding things like this. If you're consuming only 1000-1100 calories and then you vigorously work out and don't make up for the deficit you are losing when you work out then your body will probably retain weight to compensate for…

*Like button* if there was one. I completely agree.

I suppose the original subject here is interesting. I don't know. Do people find it arrogant that, every time you finish an exercise on MFP, it logs it on your wall? Or every time you close out your diary (if you have it set for public view), your "friends" look at your diary and find that you eat something that's maybe…

When I first joined this site I was looking at some information regarding this subject since I also had questions about it and found it rather interesting. Below is a message board that I had on it with information I found. Feel free to take a look :)…

Bump. I had a post about this. Just gotta find it.

Absolutely gorgeous and amazing! AMAZING JOB! Keep it going!

Thanks sonybalony, I tried that and then pasted it. But it says that the image was moved or deleted, which makes absolutely no sense whatsoever since I'm staring at the image and the image code.

Good work! Keep it up and never touch one again. I, like you, also used to smoke. I'm in the military. I went to see a plastic surgeon about getting a tummy tuck. He approved a tummy tuck that the Insurance would cover due to medical reasons (and there were medical reasons, it wasn't a bluff or anything like that) but I…

Definitely look at what you're changing while he's gone. Are you eating out at all while he's gone? Are you changing your menu while he's gone? If you work out, when do you work out? While he's there or while he's gone? I understand all too well, your frustration. Being a military spouse is difficult. I was a military…

I see disgusting things when I look in the mirror... i.e. butt's too big, tummy poofs out a bit too much, etc. I try to avoid the mirror as much as I can.

*like*

Thanks for clarification on "IF". I fail to see whether there is a "certain amount of calories" he takes in on a daily basis. No specification on that. I do understand the method behind all the madness, but where is the regular caloric intake? Is there one or do you just eat, say, a pizza slice worth 280 calories one night…
