Did you buy hydrolyzed protein? I tried different brands and with protein powder you get what you pay for. The cheap stuff clumps when you mix it and has a strange taste. The better hydrolyzed protein's mix smooth and have very little taste. For me personally I like Isopure.

Yes you can lose weight without exercise. You an also paddle a boat with your shoe, crawl instead of walk and ride a bike with a flat tire. Eating right and exercise go hand in hand and make everything work much more efficient. I personally just don't see the point in dieting without exercise. The last thing I want to look…

As someone who not too long ago had a loved one reveal they hid and lied about a Eating Disorder for 14 years, I completely agree. I don't know if previously you hid the ED from your family or not. But in my case, it was hidden from me and it is taking me a long time to learn to trust again when it comes to food with that…

Around $200 per week for our family of 6 . Sometimes it goes as high as $250.

Some people have made the statement (Your diary is so boring, same things pretty much day in and day out) which it is. I do it that way on purpose. For me I am trying to retrain myself to not think of food as something to look forward to, but something to use to fuel my body. I've had an unhealthy relationship with food…

My wife is currently suffering from it. She uses one of those elastic weight lifting bands and puts it under her foot and does stretching exercises that way while watching tv. She also immediately after exercise puts a frozen water bottle under her foot and rolls it back and forth. It's been helping her a lot, and she's…

7 days a week. 3 cardio/weight lifting 3 cardio 1 martial arts

Well, then don't get snacks for a few weeks and only give them plenty of food you cook. They will eat it, I promise they won't starve. :-) Yeah, it sucks you can't keep a few treats for yourself, but for now that's really your only choice. Show them you mean business by not buying a single snack food for a while. They will…

I dunno, we have 3 boys (and a young girl) who eat us out of house and home. I have no idea how you spend $75 per week (Our average grocery bill is around $200 per week). We don't buy garbage, but the boys are hungry and eat whatever isn't nailed down. I consider it a "price" we pay for having children. No one made my wife…

For what it's worth I met my wife on AOL (remember that service?) back in 1997 while I was working for them and she was a member. We started talking, I made her laugh. and things grew from there. We have been married for 12 years; have 4 wonderful children and couldn't be happier. The "forum" in which a match happens…

I married this absolutely gorgeous freckled woman twelve years ago. So no, freckles are NOT ugly, I find them very attractive! :-)

Thing is, most people don't understand how hard having a ED is to people. Someone very close to me struggles with a ED and I know she works incredibly hard at getting better. Some days she doesn't reach the 1,000 calorie mark, and other days she does. But she's trying and is getting better at it, albeit slowly. ED isn't…

I don't have anyone I trust enough yet at my gym to spot me doing any kind of max right now. You'd be surprised how much having a spotter you trust unconditionally will allow you to increase the weight you are able to lift.

That's why even never being an Adonis or Greek God body; I never had problems getting a date. And, why I married "up" over my normal "perceived" range. Confidence, humor and a good attitude can get you really far as a guy. I always figured if a girl rejected my advances, she rejected them. I got my share of rejections, but…

Agreed. If your injured, your body needs the time to heal properly. Pushing an already hurt body is a recipe for disaster. A week or so being off to heal a sprain is a heck of a lot better then 6 months of healing because of a ruptured tendon, etc.

We have 4 and i'll gladly give you a few of them, no take backs though!!!! j/k 4 was it for us and I made sure of it!! I love them all, and they are one of the biggest joys in my life and I wouldn't change a thing!!!

Uh huh, suuurrreeeeeeeee.... ;-)

I'm no gentleman either. I prefer whatever color hair it is my wife has since she is currently looking over my shoulder... ppppsssssttttt (I prefer redheads)....

Me too!! But in my case it's Dionysus...

Nope, no grappling background at all. In a MMA match, I would be screwed. But I would love to learn grappling techniques one day!

In it's rawest form it's street fighting. While we share common forms with other styles of Karate; and we focus in more on actual combat (we also incorporate kicks heavily). Knees, kicks, elbows, ridge hands, etc. It's not grappling, so our goal is to keep our opponents from actually grabbing us. Most of our moves are 3 to…

Nope, Soryu Karate.

I bet that's an awkward call if it's a pocket dial... "Sorry Mr. Recoil, I meant to call Mrs. Johnson, but my pocket must have dialed your number".... That would be my luck. ;-)

I know what your problem is (it's something I've done too many times). See, you have your wife mixed up with your cat. Your wife is the one who is yelling at you to take out the garbage. The cat is the furry naked thing on your bed rubbing up against you at night nibbling on your toes. It's important to remember that,…
