So I meet all of your criteria. Have been dedicated to myself and this site for a year now. But is this a popularity contest?

Gave birth to my second daughter and weighed in at 206, which was actually 2 pounds less than when I got pregnant for her. I realized that I didn't want my girls to grow up with the obese parents I grew up with. I want to be a participant in their lives. I want to raise them to be healthy, with healthy habits. I don't want…

Excuse me, but the couple was also seen on Dr. Oz. So they HAVE seen a real doctor about this disorder!! (Or many as they are making the talk show circuits it seems!).... At the point that they are on all of these shows, I call BS to their claims. If no one has actually seen them do it, it never happened. But I bet they…

Can't. Stop. Giggling.

First off, I love the machine you posted. In my gym it also faces the wall, thank god. And as the OP of those thread, just want to point out, I am an overweight 35 year old woman. Its not like I'm some young thin hot chick.... I don't get hit on by guys at the gym. And I certainly don't need to be gitchee gitchee…

WOAH... hold on, so I INTENTIONALLY was nice and held in the weights so he could walk by, so as to NOT hit the old guy. He stopped directly in front of me, preventing me from releasing the weights and potentially injuring myself, I had to ask him twice to move so I COULD release the weights without injuring him, and I am…

I spent quite a few years working in nursing homes with plenty of pervy old guys. I heard this guy tell another woman that he was working out while his wife was in zumba class. He had all of his faculties, as he easily could figure out the machines. And its not like I'm a young one! Totally creeped me out. If he tries it…

Protein shakes always work for me. Drink plenty of water while working out. You could just be dehydrated.

8:00 pm in which time zone?

I am so proud of you. You inspire me on a daily basis. It has brought me so much joy watching you progress and change this past year. I am proud of you for all of your accomplishments and can't wait to see all your future triumphs and successes!! You are truly amazing!

Blake Shelton "Who are you when I'm not lookin"... My oh my your so good lookin. You hold yourself together like a pair of bookends."... Seriously, that's the best compliment he could come up with? That song seriously angers me...

Have you seen someone doing this? Do you know someone on here that does? Were you thinking of attempting this? This is something I would never have thought of attempting. Wtf?!?!

I am a runner, I just run a bit slow, averaging 5.2 mph on a 5k distance. Today I challenged myself to run 6mph for 5 minutes, in the middle of my run. I kept that pace for 6 minutes instead!

It's my understanding, and I may be wrong so please no attacks, but I believe the algorithms used in heart rate monitors to figure heart rate and calories burned, are not meant for long term usage, and if worn all day, you will not get accurate reads on calories burned. To get correct calories for full days, you need…

I am 5'6 and my goal is 148. That puts me 10 lbs into the healthy weight range on the bmi scale. I started out at 208. Am currently about 178. So half way to goal. BUT, along the way, I realized that my goal isn't to get to a specific weight but to get HEALTHY. To be a better influence on my daughters than my parents were…

Yeah you are new, because if you stick around a while, you will learn that mfp and etiquette do not go hand in hand. Of course with some answers you just received, I am thinking you may have just seen that for yourself.

So your boyfriend forces you to put food in your mouth? Do you only do the things your boyfriend allows? If you want to eat healthy, do it. Don't allow someone to tell you what you have to put in your body.

You can add me. I'm 35, and currently getting myself in shape to do my first triathlon this year. I workout a lot, run, bike, swim, lift, etc. I log daily too.

IMO you are definitely not eating enough. You ate 900 calories one day. If that is normal for you, I can definitely see where your doctor would be concerned.

Shoe fittings are not hocus pocus and are free at running stores. They check for how you pronate when you walk. It is important to wear the correct shoe. If you overpronate, but wear shoes the wrong shoes, you can cause injury. Get fitted. Your feet, legs, back, etc will all thank you!!

I hope lifting makes me that bulky. You look amazing. Congrats!!

Having spent many years working in a nursing home, this happens a lot. Some people may not have the strength or stability to walk. But it doesn't mean their legs don't work. Wheelchairs aren't just for paralized people. Nice empathy tho.

Bump cause I want to save this. Thanks.

I am proud of myself for competing in the Cupid Chase 5k, in the snow, and I didn't finish last. This is only my second 5k, and I beat my first 5k time. And I ran my fastest mile ever. That little storm they called memo can bite me!!

Hi and welcome to mfp. Its a great site with great people. Enjoy your stay,!!

The kindest JM workout is one that's still in the package!! I have a bunch of her workouts. She is a beast. And I love them! But kind, she certainly is not!!

Subways website does this too. They include all ingredients. And condiments too.

Those Monopoly folks left it up to a poll on facebook to decide which piece was going to be the new one, and which of the old ones had to go. I think they should have let the mfp people decide!!

Love love love this!!! Thanks for the laugh!
