What's the atmosphere going to be like and what sorts of folks to you hope to attract? Is it country? City? Family? Yuppie? I'd think of a name that relates to the type of place you'd like to have!

The advertising they work into the show is getting to be too much! The contestants often have gotten where they are because of emotional issues and life situations that they have to recognize and deal with in order to make change. That part's very interesting to me, for some reason.

I wonder if you might "accidentally" get rid of this stuff from time to time? We hate to throw things out, but this is poison - not food! Just a thought...

I met my wife online, so it can work! She had a few bad dates and quit the site but didn't realize her profile was still up for a while when I happened to contact her! Cast out your line from time to time - you'll get a bite eventually! I doesn't hurt to change up your profile from time to time. You can have a friend check…

I hope to work out on the elliptical I have in the basement. Then I like to meditate for 15-20 minutes afterwords. I 200 cal enough for dinner? It's good to eat well and be mindful - but don't be too hard on yourself!

Or you can do the same under the broiler - very good!!!

You the man 'Dog!!! Good points...

Is he handy? Have any small or medium projects he could do that don't take a lot of time and money? That sure can help! Us guys don't mind a little gift from time to time as well. I got a nice work light recently to use for tinkering with the cars - and I love it! Hope things work out OK with his job...

Seems to me that this site should have a lot of interesting data on this topic! Just a thought...

Not too strong please - don't want to pass out and miss anything! Anything with rum in it will be fine. How do you say "banana daiquiri"?

Think I'll just sit in my chair and enjoy the show!

Looks like you'll need more guys to even things out, so I guess I could go!

I've got a section of hiking trail I maintain in Eastern CT, so I spend a bit of time up there! Recently put up a wikipedia page on the trail: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nehantic_Trail I'm not sure it's a hiking trail. More of a nature walking trail since the biggest climb is about 200 feet! Photography has been limited…

I've been wondering about this too! some of the entries in the database say "1 cup cooked", so I tend to pick those and questimate. Been losing about a pound a week for the past month, so I guess that's working!

Also, a good elliptical trainer can give you the feeling of running to a large extent with less impact. Keep your eye out for sales and they can be found used pretty often - unless you have a gym membership!

I agree that counseling might be a good idea. Sometimes we just need someone to give us an outside point of view. It doesn't mean there's anything "wrong" necessarily. A good counselor could help you understand what triggers might cause a lapse - or even help you to think about what the best goals are, for you!

I've been eating somewhat less than recommended. According to my diary that is, though I figure I probably underestimate some as most people do apparently! With that, I've been losing a pound a week for the past month, so it seems to be working! How long have you been at this, and how's progress so far?

Great! Couples sessions might be a good idea too. Hope things work out!

That's what I was wondering - it sounds like he's just drifting. You might consider getting in touch with who ever provided his care and see what they suggest to assess this. Good luck!

Throw a little robe over it if that makes you more comfortable. And you can have fun with that too...

I have "Winter Lights" on my house that we keep going till March, at least! Gotta do something to fight these long nights!

Side effects include reduced bank account and no appreciable weight loss...

It might be good to make sure you eat first if you are going to have a drink. The alcohol will be absorbed more slowly so you should be less likely to get carried away... Also, you can have a glass with tonic water and lime -- and no one will know you're abstaining!

Maybe what you need to lose is that dead-weight "friend"! :smile:

I'm working on getting exercise every day, or most days at least, to get back in shape and help lose weight. So it makes sense to me to make sure I'm eating enough if I'm going to shed some fat and build some muscle. So I eat at least some of those "extra" calories. I think it's hard to measure calorie intake and expend…

Apparently pancakes are not that bad - just go easy on the butter and syrup.

Lately...Raisinettes

THC is given to stimulate appetite and encourage weight gain in HIV and cancer patients. If fact, blocking receptors for the drug has been shown to promote wight loss, but seems this seems to cause too many other effects. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannabinoid_receptor_antagonist for more on that if you're…

Do you have caffeinated drinks in the afternoon or evening? If so, you may want to cut those out. Good luck!
