Heh, nice avatar.... that's me today.

.... oh.... and we had a group for this: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/6297-mfp-skeptic-society Although, its been sadly far too dormant, lately.

Yeah.... I've found my place. Someone pass the HCG drops.... :wink:

For me, this is like my 3rd serious attempt in the last 5 years, and both times I failed it was because of a loss of motivation from stringing a few bad days together leading to a backslide into overeating and overindulging in alcohol and a lack of a support system of friends. Most of my friends, it seems, would rather me…

Oh man.... did anyone mention Flagpole Sitta by Harvey Danger? I heard that tonight and had to put it up here...

You're better off seeing a medical doctor who has been through years of training and is licensed to practice medicine. Chiropractors are not medical doctors and are not qualified to treat people for ailments. A chiropractor is no more qualified to provide medical treatment than you or I. Here's a nice semi-quick background…

Pretty much anything except those chewy peanut butter monstrosities that they wrap in orange and black wax paper....

Lets Go Pens!

Definitely exercise... it's the only way to stay sane. It is also the only way you're going to get your body to look the way you want, regardless of weight.

Nice... sounds like a pretty good re-combination of traits!

Nice addition! I haven't run across many of those, but they sound like they'd have a field day with my diary.

Yeah, that one is definitely me too...

How did they get that cat to sit with those glasses on long enough to take a picture??

The feminist in me had a hard time writing that one without getting on my own nerves. ;-)

+1 :drinker:

I totally called out the creepers....

I ain't fancy.... Meijer brand crunchy....

Personally, I'm definitely the junkie, the sisyphus, and the scientist.... :smile:

The ones who aren't willing to read, are the ones who aren't worth the effort.... and nothing kills an appetite like a tall glass of feline. :laugh:

*crickets and groans* Thank you, I'll be here all night! :wink:

There's no better, board-friendly way to put it!

Heh.... looks like someone already ran with the 6 worst.

I'll get to the 6 worst later!! ;)

Thanks for your expert opinion.

To the guy who said that the government did not shut down: You have no clue what you're talking about. To the OP: The government shut down because of right-wing extremists.

It was never really a question.... I was going to be a software programmer, and program software I did.

The idea is just to finish.... don't kill yourself in the process. Once you can get through C25k, then you can worry about speed. When I was doing it, there were people walking that I was having a hard time keeping up with. Just make sure you maintain the form of running and don't revert to walking (unless instructed…

Personally? The people I *perceive* as the gym-going types are the same people who made my life miserable as a kid. This is almost certainly a fallacy, but regardless of the accuracy, it plays a big role in the reasons I don't want to subject myself to going to a gym. To the OP, I really like what I read so far in your…

I struggle with the same thing as far as the alcohol and/or money goes. I've spent 10 years building up a social network of people who love to drink and suddenly I don't find that as amusing as I did when I was 25. Now I have to figure out how to balance my social life with my desire to do good things for myself. I don't…
