Darren - Du Depp!!! *PMSL*

Ha! Love it :))

Congrats! :) It doesn't matter if others have lost more, it's all about improving your own health. And you have already done that! Be proud of this!

I've been single all my life - only had two very, very short relationships - so it gets boring quite often; cue eating out of boredom. I'm addicted to the internet so I spend the majority of my time there (Twitter, photography sites, health, psychology, compiling an events calendar, etc.). In addition, I've just started…

Yep. :>

This ^^. The other poster who said they only have as much power over you as you give them is right as well. Don't let them harass and bully you. If they start to give out, you give back. Let them taste their own medicine. And don't give up! Oh, and see if you can find some REAL friends. Best of luck!

Strange. I'm not getting any adverts at all! Neither at home (Chrome) or at work (Firefox). One thing I do when I don't want to see certain things (e.g. on Facebook): I do not maximize the screen. Instead, I make it smaller and adjust the window so I can see the main part of the page, but don't see anything on the sides.…

This is good info, thank you! I'm currently at 31% BF according to calculators (or 25% according to my scales), and have been wondering about this, too. I still have a bit to go, though. :)

Very interesting. I wonder if your results had been different if you had worn the Flex around your ankle? That's what I plan on doing. I always feared that arm movement while being stationary would influence the readings. Thanks for the review!

It's explained here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/974888-in-place-of-a-road-map-2k13 HelloItsDan gives you lots of good advice.

It will be hard to find an activity or event that will appeal to all members of a group, so you will always have some attending and others not. Darren's suggestion of offering a variety of activities, especially some that are "different", is good. This way you can offer something for (nearly) all tastes. Having tried out…

So sorry that you have to go through this. I wish your parents were aware of what they're doing to you. :/ You said you can't move out because of the lack of finances, but you didn't explain why you don't have money. Are you still in school? College? Is there a way you can get a part-time job? Anything that gets you a…

*Bump* Another must-read post.

Spurs, Arsenal, and Man City. And I'm not from London hence don't care about the local rivalry between Spurs and Arsenal supporters.

To be fair to the OP: none of us knows this guy. What if he IS someone who likes to say suggestive things? In that case, "I don't know, you might know her... " could indeed be referring to her. We are all just posting our opinions (including myself), but none of us can actually KNOW what he meant. Some guys are like that,…
-
I'm very sorry, OP, but Chris sounds to me like he manipulated you into believing your ex has cheated (even though there is no proof!!) - and now he's controlling you! You might find his checking up on you adorable at the moment, but think further. You're married, you want to go out - and your then-husband keeps…
-
I completely agree with you, OP! The rudeness so often found in the comments is the main reason why I read and interact so little in the forums. It shows the very ugly side of humans ... :/
-
Easily up to 5 lbs, but fortunately they disappear again after it's over. Very annoying!
-
This ^^. Is everyone at work and at the gym rude to you, or are there a few nice folks? If there are, then stick with those and exclude the rude ones from your jokes, from your lunchtime, from anything personal. Only talk to them when it's business-related. And make sure they see how much fun you're having with the nice…
-
Ha! I haven't actually thought about that. But possibly some clothes item, too.

I don't know anything about smart phone apps, like how accurate they are, but if you really want to log your calorie burn correctly, you will have to get an HRM. I too waited too long until I bought one, but I have not regretted it since. Every body is different, everyone burns calories differently. An HRM will measure…

It sucks having a colleague like that. You could return that treatment, though: Let's say she's waving some soda in your face again while you're sticking to water (or she's eating a doughnut while you're feasting on a salad - you get the point). When she starts teasing you again, saying something to the effect of "oh, just…
-
Actually .... I would quite like to see what you'll do when you explode. So hopefully, there'll be a few more fad diet threads today *hehehehehe* But seriously, I'm with you - and I'm by no means an expert. But it's clear that none of those fashion diets or magic pills really work long-time, or else we wouldn't be having…
-
This. I usually don't invite people (or accept FRs) if I don't know anything about them. Why so secretive? Making your profile public is not going to hurt you.
-
Have you asked him WHY he doesn't support you becoming healthy? It's not just about losing weight, it's about getting healthy. Are there other areas your fiancé won't support you, e.g., when you want to go out and/or do something on the weekends? I can't shake the feeling that this isn't the only problem you have in your…

The analogy about looking at food / calories as fuel to power your body is very good. Everything has been explained by HelloItsDan here: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/654536-in-place-of-a-road-map-2-0-revised-7-2-12 In short, if you don't eat your exercise calories back, you will stop losing weight. You want to…

I don't really have any goals that are tied to the change of the year. Not sure if it's a good or a sad thing to be goalless, though.
-
Because I'm an a55hole, but I'm aware of it. I'm staying single so that I don't force my way onto others - it just wouldn't be fair on them. Also, because I don't like having sex. :>
