Haha, yes. I confess to making a rant here. But have you never met this kind of attitude before? This was just a small, to me semi funny scenario, but I find that sometimes there is this really excluding attitude, I remember bringing one of my best friends along to the gym a long while back (He's this nice skinny guy) and…

I'm not sure, he was wearing sweatpants. :)

Yeah, well it was in kg, I just converted it. And of course I thanked him! I might have done a rant, but I'm actually quite nice. :) And since it's an outdoor gym it's a solid bar, so it's quite hard to get the heavier once up safely into the rack alone.

I think on my worst days I have had serious issues getting out of bed, and did fall in a staircase once because my legs just gave away! I have found that the best way for me to handle these days is a lot doing really light things like taking a walk, a slow bike ride and after a while your muscles will warm up and after…

Haha! Waow, the word that rhymes with fit was actually censored. I guess you can all figure out what it's suppose to say. :)

Hey! Yes, I did go out again yesterday and after being a bit stiff it felt really good. I do however have an old, quite bad hamstring injury (it really went popp) and it tends to come back and haunt me. Stretching and yoga does help with the pain though, so I'm hoping it will get better and better with time. throoper;…

Hi Chris! Mud-runs! Really? Haha, that sounds awesome but slippery. It's really easy to get caught up in the all or nothing approach when it comes to fitness I think, everyone seems to strongly believe in goal-oriented superdiciplined fitness and we seem to forget that the point of it all is for it to make us feel good and…

Hah, now I realized it's actually 7 weeks! Anyhow, feels nice. And yes, I do occasionally have treats! You should have, keeps you sane.. =)

Yey, so good for you guys! I'm just really amazed that it has made such a difference in so many different levels of my life, and I just realized it today! Sitting on the train, having my pre packed AWESOME salad and realizing I was longing to pick ut out of my bag and eat it, I did however forget my water bottle, so I head…

Interesting topic this. There are many myths surrounding calorie intake and metabolism, so much so that I did an extensive (Medical-student-dorky) research on the topic. The fact remains, calorie deficit = weight loss. You will loose weight at 1200 calories if your DCN (Daily Calorie Needs) is higher then this and as you…

Oh, what a great thread. I live in Sweden and it would be really nice to talk to people from other parts of the world. :)

Yeah, the title was suppose to be New and on the lookout for other diet/food/fitness-nerd-mfp-FRIENDS! But obviously, I was being a bit ambitious. :D

Hi again! Haha, so I was really tired when I posted to this Roll Call but I was just so happy to find it I had to answer right away. :) So I thought I'd tell you a bit more on who I am. I used to skate when I was younger, I have never been tiny, even when I used to practice a lot during high school. I quit when I was 15…

Hey all! I have actually started to to my warm-up routine in the past year or so (Getting older puts things in perspective... :)) Mostly, because if you do a lot of jumping, figure skating does really strain your body, I'm not so sure that it's always a healthy choose for a sport. :P Depends on what you do on ice,…

Yey! Oh man, I was so happy when I found this group here. I'm also an adult skater, I used to skate when I was younger but I have also added on about 50 lbs to much so I can't really jump any more. So i decided to change things and, well. Here I am. Actually, my main motivation for loosing weight and working out is to be…
