  • Hey OP, I'm sorry you're in such a tight bind. I can't give you too much advice on asking your Uncle for help (I'm pretty bad at asking for any type of help myself), but I can suggest that you check out SitterCity if you're really considering babysitting as a source of extra income. It's just a really neat way of finding…
  • When I have time, I really prefer to buy my produce at farmers' markets. I just find that it looks fresher and tastes better. I've found that it's best to shop farmers' markets just before they pack up for the day (like 30-45 min. before it's scheduled to close) because the sellers want to get rid of their goods and not…
  • When I was in eighth grade, my school's chorus was invited to perform in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade as part of a group called America Sings (led by John Jacobson, the guy from 'double dream hands' fame). My dad taped the television broadcast for me and I found myself on screen a few times. It was really cool! Now,…
  • Poison Ivy!
  • I'm saving the huge clothing haul for later in my weight loss (that way I can buy a new wardrobe!), but most of my rewards are going to be from DSW or Ross.
  • 21 year old college student from Florida here! Feel free to add me :) I'm also pescatarian, so any other pescatarians/vegetarians/vegans should definitely add me (But really, anyone should add me... I like friends)!
  • Mia Thermopolis from The Princess Diaries! She's nerdy and sweet and overcomes bullying to rule her own country. And her grandmother is Julie Andrews, so that's pretty awesome.
  • I really love mine raw (especially salads). A great way to add flavor without many calories is by adding a little lemon juice, pepper (and salt, if you must) and a dash of lite olive oil.
  • 21! Feel free to add me!!
  • Yayyy! Women who are actually my height are on here, too!! I'm 5'10'' and would like to get down to 160. I think that's a good number for me since I have a very curvy body and my doctor and I decided that would be a healthy, manageable weight for me. Any other tall ladies that have 60ish (or more.. or less!) lbs. to lose,…
  • "Part of Me" by Katy Perry. It's so motivating!
  • I'm pescatarian as well! Feel free to add me!
  • I've been pescatarian (meaning the only meat I'll eat is fish and even that is a rarity) since November 2011 and I'm so happy I took the plunge! I didn't notice a significant weight-loss, but my skin is clearer, my hair is shinier, I have more energy, and my blood pressure/cholesterol has gone way down. I personally also…
  • I share a family membership to the local YMCA with my mom and brother. When I'm at school, I use my university's gym but it is always packed with kids who are simply there to socialize, which can be very irritating.
  • I'm not much of a runner, but I am trying to get back into swimming. I used to be in VERY good shape when I swam competitively, so I'm thinking that might be a good cardio exercise for me now.
  • You go, girl! You can definitely do this!! Add me and we can support each other.
  • Hey! I recently joined MFP to loose about 60 lbs., too, and would love some inspiration from a pescatarian like myself. Please feel free to friend me and we can motivate each other!
