Um... do you know that people respond "bump" because they like your thread and want to be able to get back to it later?? My go to foods: Frozen broccoli, green beans, asparagus, peas, corn, etc. Just plain. I take 2-3 cups for lunch every day. Fills me up for not a lot of calories and I get my fiber. Tuna in water. Protein…

This rule also applies to restroom stalls. Geeze, give a person a little space!

WTF??? That is absurd.

THIS ^^^^^^^. Plus: Loud cell phone talkers. Perfume / cologne People who "reserve" a machine with their towel and then go off to who knows where forever. People who spread ALL the crap from their gym bag all over the counter or bench in the locker room. People who jump on the cardio machines before I can wipe them down...…

yummy-yum-bump

Maybe split the difference? Try 140 or 143 and see how that goes? If you're still not satisfied, just keep going. If your numbers are adding up, I don't think the argument that you look skinnier than you are is a good reason to stop before your goal.

She called the cops? Do you two have a history that would make her jump to that so quickly? That's pretty extreme. If she's not cheating physically, she is cheating emotionally... on you and your children. She can't be parenting much if she's on the phone for three hours at a time with anyone, male or female. And if it's…

Sarcasm, what's that? I thought everyone on here was totally serious and supportive all the time and forever. OMG, can I be your friend???

Stupid hormones. The FDA should outlaw them.

Yeah... I am with you. It took me until college to start to realize how blunt / sarcastic my family was and to learn that doesn't fly with everyone. Don't get me wrong, I knew I was loved, but love was expressed through sarcasm and critique. For me, it ended up making me a really hard worker and I became extremely…

Feel free to add me. I'm trying to lose 20. I know for a fact that losing a little is just as hard as losing a lot. I haven't been very successful so far in terms of losing, but I have stopped the gradual uphill trend and am at least maintaining. I am also eating a lot healthier. I try to be motivating and constructive...…

OMG, you don't even look like the same person! Fantastic job!

End it. Done. Over. He goes to the bar every Friday night with his friends? I understand time alone, but every Friday night... even before a big event that the two of you were doing together? Doesn't seem worth holding onto IMO. You need to have more value in yourself than settling for that sort of treatment. Just my take.…

Man... apparently I write a crappy post. How many times do I have to bump this thing to get some interest? Maybe I should just go search the forums like a good little MFPer!

:-)

And we definitely need more "What is this Meat?" threads!

I need a nana like that!

3-4. You can definitely tell when I've been exercising. And yeah, I sweat on the treadmill. But I don't go super fast all the time anymore. Sometimes you gotta stop and smell the lovely gym odors!

2 gallons of milk = 16 lbs. Great work! Low sugar and CRABS is a new one... sounds like it'd get expensive ;-p Good luck with continued success! Jen

Oh, and I am kidding about the cult thing, so please don't get all offended and sulk off. It's juts that every review I've read RAVES about cross-fit, which is good and part of why I want to try it, but there is nothing in the world that doesn't have some downsides. Trying to get a more balanced view, and to find out some…

Never mind... found my answer.

Just looking for any input really, good, bad or otherwise. I'm looking for a fairly quick strength workout that I can add to my mountain biking training. Wondering whether anyone has any tips for what to look for in a gym, what they like about crossfit, what they don't like about it, etc. Good experiences, bad experiences?

Really, no one else does cross fit???

I don't yet, but will probably use a heart rate monitor.

Wow! Glad it turned around for you!

Awesome! I have probably lost the same... lose 2, gain 2, lose 4, gain 5, lose 3, gain 1... and on and on! Feel free to add me if you'd like. i'm here most days and I try to keep my comments constructive and motivating! Best of luck to you, Jen

ah.... this. again. yeah, I don't get why people get so amped up that they have to bash other people either. it's the inter-webs people, just do what works for you.

a little green, NO spots whatsoever, thankyouverymuch!

Any guy in spandex that isn't in spin class.

You usually eat only 100 calories per day??? Yes, please seek professional help. Even if you're talking about sodium, that's still really, really low.
