Well I am the exact opposite, my wife is a lot like you... The whole on and off thing... As for me. I am either 100% committed or i am 100% off the wagon... I don't seem to fall of and on, I am either on and driving, or rolling in the dirt... Right now, i am on the wagon all the way... I have short and long term goals for…

You should pull/push when possible... Another trick is to Free walk (Without using hands) This makes you body use your central core to hold your balance... I did this for an entire hour work out and my mid section was soooo sore... If you do a combination of Push/Pull, Run/Walk, and Free Walking, you can get a goof work…

Hmm, the whole breast feeding thing has be confused. You don't burn calories while the actual feeding process is going on, but you do burn calories creating the milk? If that is correct, shouldn't that be part of you daily burn, and not be logged? its kinda like breathing or your heart beating, you cant just quit making…

I have heard of this coming from many people. I am going to give you some advice that my grandpa gave me a long long time ago... he wasn't speaking about weight loss, but i thin kit applies. "When you get thrown from a horse, get up, shoot the Son of a B****, get a new one and ride like hell..." I took, don't ever give up…

This times a million... Sweet heart, You are eating less than my pets at home! 1200 cal per day is a minimum... If you are really dealing with anorexia, you must, must, must consult a Doctor before dieting. I do not know how long you have been eating that little, but i can tell you that you can not do it for very long. You…

Unfortunately, a lot of cultures still hold to the old world beliefs that being fat was indeed a good thing. During the Roman empire, if woman were skinny, they were considered undesirable. Mainly because, if you were fat, it meant you could afford lots of good food and wine, where as if you were skinny, you could not. The…

Yea The Zombie thing is kinda over done. I like the style of the race though.. The Survival aspect seems neat... Gives you an additional incentive to run and try to avoid stuff... Makes it more interesting, rather than I have 5k to run, i want to get my time as fast as possible.... Know what I mean?
-
I am ready for the hard work! Honestly 2 weeks in to a very serious goal driven, exercise program, and I am feeling great.
-
Request sent! I am really liking the way the Zombie Run looks. Luckily my workplace sponsors dozens of 5k runs a year for different charities, so I will be doing most of those. I am really upset at myself for how far I let myself go. I guess i knew how bad i was getting, but it just didn't register, know what I mean? The…

If nothing else lay on your back on the couch/floor and bend you knees, by slowly pulling your foot back to your butt. The idea is just to keep the stiffness from setting in.
-
I have horrible knee problems after the Army. I can tell you a few good tricks to help you out. 1. Take Motrin or ibuprofen in instead of Tylenol, Honestly I prefer Naproxen Sodium( it is a pain reliever and anti Inflammatory.) 2. Do not just use heat or Ice alone... Put Ice on for 10-15 Min. Then go to Heat for 10-15 min.…

Do you feel like this before you ever begin to work out? Or is it during the work out?

No One done this before?

As a new person to MFP, I don't find this post to be bad. I agree, with you in fact, I guess the main point you are trying to make is, dont rely on just one source. If you Treadmill says 450, MFP says 600 do an average. Don't just take the higher number because it looks good. Where I work, we have a full gym, and the…

C25K is working for me, also I hit the elliptical most every day here lately. Easy on my knees and ankles! I eat really lite if I am going to run. Lean protein and complex carbs (If I cant go cardio on an empty stomach.). Then I do a cool down period and eat my real lunch... When I was in the Army I would do a Pre Run…

Some people just do not understand how hard just walking away can be... You have the 'I Paid for it, im Eating it" mindset. Also, just saying no is hard for some people.... That is how McDonald's makes millions on the "Would you want two pies for a dollar?" Good job on seeing how bad it was, and walking away!!!!
-
Yea the Subway thing really gets me... Sure you can get it healthier, no sauce, no cheese, loads of veggies..... I get that, but like you said, the Sodium is through the roof,.... As a matter of fact, everything at a fast food joint is bad for you in general, i do not care if it is *Healthy* or not. This is the problem…

That is what was found at area 51.... Coffee

I like this... I give it two points

Ah, I am used to being told what to do, and how to live... The Army beat that into me... I just smile and Nod.

I just started the MFP thing, but I have been in seriously good shape (Military Career) and my current horrible shape ( Civilian life) I can tell you, that Lean Protein is the best thing to keep hunger at bay... I actually just proved this fact to myself.I have been doing The MFP Diary for 4 days.. Compare the first two…

Never Mind! I found it under the Diary Settings!

Sorta off topic here... but is mine open... I dont remember what i chose when i set it up, and I only have on friend... lol which is my wife. So yea. No hiding from her, no matter what i do.

Sadly, I can agree here. Between my wife and myself.... Good lord. Sure was easier taking those loans out than it was paying them off....
