There was a thread recently on the top 5 foods that people can't do without, that might give you some ideas.

I ship marcus/esca and remus/sirius. Can you have two OTPs? I also like RPS.

I can't think of anything I enjoy that I feel guilty about! I only feel guilty about bad stuff I have done, when I've hurt people or done something wrong out of negligence or laziness. I guess that's the major benefit of being brought up without religions.

Chalk it up to experience. Go forth and sin no more.

LOL! Sorry, I had a mental image of your husband strapping bananas to his legs. As long as you plan for it (so that it doesn't put you over your daily calorie allowance), you can eat it. Bananas are not evil.

When I used a gym, I used to go straight after work. I couldn't be bothered to remove my makeup before I worked out; I'd remove it afterwards when I showered. Some people probably thought I had dolled up to go to the gym, but they were dead wrong - I sweated like a pig on the cardo machines and lifted free weights and…

Did it occur to you that she just wasn't into you?

THIS! If you try to find a code way of putting it, she might not understand (i wouldnt have understood the suggestions for phrasing it made by other posters). It might be embarrassing but the alternative is that she misunderstands, and you end up having to avoid someone you quite liked as a friend.

Sounds like a good idea to me :) fines are supposed to hurt, after all.

The only thing I would steer clear of in that list is the doughnuts. Even McDonalds does salad so why not go with them but just choose healthy options? MrDude: totally!

I can't drive, I never learned.

Agreed! Moving porn is vital :)

Agreed! Sacha is hot :)))

I couldn't agree more! How many times have you sat in a pub with a mixed group of friends and heard men shriek with laughter when girls start discussing they actors they actually fancy? I find Jack Black, Jamie Bell and Edward Norton extremely hot, but George Clooney, Tatum Channing and Brad Pitt do nothing at all for me.

This is a myth: all the women I know, including me, go out with nice men. Re: the OP, I would be interested to hear which celebrities he thinks are "hot": I bet they wouldn't be the same people who are on my list. I think men and women have different ideas about what is attractive in a man.

It also tastes like carpet glue.

The children who play in the ornamental square under my apartment balcony for hours, squealing and yelling while the noise bounces off the walls of the complex. There's a park right next to the complex, with grass and swings etc. but the parents use the square as a sort of outdoor crèche. On hot days when you need to open…

How about if you log your weight as 20lbs heavier than you really are, and enter 30 minutes into the exercise log? Then it will give you the number of calories burned at that heavier weight. Then you can change your weight back to your real weight, but you'll know how much you'll burn with the extra 20lbs, and you can…

Plan your meals a week in advance. Throw out anything in the house that doesn't fit in with the plan. Don't take any money or credit cards out with you, just the food in your plan in a lunchbox. Avoid social occasions. Exercise to earn extra calories and eat them, but don't log any walking of less than 20 minutes duration.…

It's 22 weeks away, and I would like to weigh 145 lbs by then, which is a weight loss of 25 lbs for me. I hope to hit goal (140lbs) by February 2013.

I totally agree. It's verging on racism, IMO.

What a very rude old lady!

I am English with a Welsh mother and Cornish father, and I have pale skin, blue eyes and dark hair, which is not unusual for a someone with that background. I have been mistaken for Spanish, Egyptian and Indian more than once, and ALWAYS by people from those countries. Totally ridiculous. I find it creepy and sort of…

None, and I'm right on target!

Re: almond milk - thanks for all the info, I will definitely try it! Eggs are still way out in front for MFP-ers.

Yeah, my mum was exactly the same; mothers aren't universally supportive, unfortunately. Best advice I can give you is to make sure you always have some protection in your bag - perhaps buy a special little cosmetics purse just for sanitary stuff - and go and see a doctor just to make sure the irregular heavy periods are…

You're embarrassed by having periods?! That's awful, what are you afraid of? You're not losing blood, you're losing the lining of your womb, it just looks like blood. You might need a bit of extra iron in your diet if you shed a lot, but you don't need to eat tons of stuff to get back other nutrients. I am going to post…

I have very pale skin so they all look rubbish on me. Some have green undertones, and suit people with slightly olive skins, some have red undertones and suit people with more of a rosy skin when they tan. It depends what tone your natural skin colour is and what colour you go when you tan. If you're going on holiday and…

Take some of those pills that help with bloating/water retention (I don't know what brands you have in your country but the pharmacist will be able to suggest something), allow yourself a little of a food you crave, and track it, try to take extra exercise to win back any extra calories you eat, and make sure you always…

Oh, that's disgusting! LOL!
