I'm a recent newcomer thanks to TNT's marathons - I went through the first 9 seasons this past summer right up into the premiere of season 10. Gods bless the DVR. I am a devoted Sam girl, I absolutely love Crowley, and I love what they've done with this season. I'm looking for a '67 Impala, actually. And I'm really looking…

My favorite pair is the NERD version of these. They are orange & black. I'll dig mine out and post a pic tomorrow. ETA: LOOOOVE the boots. :D

Yeah, delay your food... I can't eat within 3 hours of working out, or I *will* hurl. I can eat something very small on weekends when I go work out first thing, but more than half a banana? Yep. Water doesn't have any affect. Though, I will say, there are times when even then, I push it too far and have had to pull over on…

REALLY?!?! http://www.businessinsider.com/herbalife-halted-2014-3 http://www.consumeraffairs.com/nutrition/herbalife.html http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2014/11/03/herbalife_pyramid_scheme_lawsuit_15_million_settlement_in_class_action.html Oh, and then there were the people that were made sick and died because of…

Truth: I was sitting here trying to figure out how to improve its performance.

I tried to come up with something good for this, and I realized that most everything that kicks my trigger is rather rational... for me. But lately, mine has been shopping. I'm about sick of the catering to homogeneity. No, I don't have an Apple or an Android phone, and so the fact that ya'll refuse to support Microsoft…

And Hafthor is officially one of the strongest men in the world, breaking a 1,000 year old record: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2939595/Game-Thrones-actor-played-Mountain-World-s-Strongest-Viking-smashes-1-000-year-old-record-carrying-1-433lbs-log.html BMI is useless. When I was 180 and a size 16 at 5'9",…

I'm not trying to be too snarky, but this is the 3rd thread I've read this morning already where people *CLEARLY* aren't reading the OP. Really guys?! It's not that hard to take the original post into thought when responding to a question. It's really frustrating. It's NOT a bowEl obstruction if it's cramping in the legs…

I've used this within the IT industry: http://www.edrawsoft.com/visio-replacement.php That might help. There's also some others out there, but this one I've used. :)

Also, measure your liquids, and double check your labels periodically. The coffee creamer I was logging as 1.5tbls was closer to 3. As in over. And then I accidentally bought the same creamer I always do, only to find that I didn't check close enough and it was the full sugar version, not the sugar-free, and I only…

Roughly 90 minutes 4 days a week. Tues/Thurs is split between cardio & lifting, Sat/Sun is all lifting. If you're getting over it, find new things you like to do. If you get bored with routine, rotate things in and out.

I ended up getting a refillable pod for my Keurig. http://www.amazon.com/Solofill-K3-GOLD-CUP-Refillable/dp/B00C3828WA/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1422368364&sr=8-3&keywords=solofill+refillable+k-cup That was really awesome for me. But I tend to stick to the same thing... but I ended up giving away my Keurig after about 18…

Wasabi mayonnaise & minced ginger...

I use a salt scrub and wonderful hand creams to reduce their roughness.

I mix in 1/2 a cup of liquid egg whites. It makes them fluffy and makes them stick for 6-7 hours. I also mix half water & half vanilla almond milk, and sweeten with Stevia or Torani sugar free syrups.

This is how I made it easier for myself. I used my Fitbit for a month of normal activities. Then, I went through my Fitbit reports and averaged out all of my daily calories burned for the month (by the weekly reports, this was easy). Then I subtracted 500 from there, and set my custom goal in MFP for that - which gives me…

I have seen the McCafe beans/grounds at my local grocery store - so they are coming. My current obsession is the chocolate coffee from Trader Joe's. Or the Illy medium roast beans. I found some things here to try, thank you! I absolutely adore my AeroPress though. I do have a copper french press as well, but for ease of…

I had the Flex for 20 months and found it to be very accurate, and it did really well at helping me determine my real TDEE. It helped keep me in balance as I checked everything on MFP vs Fitbit, and made them match up. When I was tracking, I consistently lost without stalls. I just got the Charge HR Monday, and I love it…

You can do it right from the MFP app... it's right next to the search field.

1) Yes. Tues/Thurs, I do an hour and change of cardio walking/jogging on the treadmill before my training session with my PT. 3) I do it because I have severe anxiety and asthma issues, and it helps control both of them. For the first time in my adult life, they are both under control. I still have to take medication, but…

I just added a bunch of Junksista & Ayria into my standard industrial/futurepop tracks. I've got a 64GB card in my phone that's now full. *eek* I just put the whole library on shuffle while on the treadmill, skipping through per my pacing. On straight lifting days, I've been listening to whole albums. My current favorite…

I skip the rolls and go with sashimi if I'm having to watch my intake. I can eat a ton of tuna & mackerel for the protein/calorie ratio. If I do want rice, I'll get a little bowl on the side and seaweed salad. NOM! Now I want Japanese food.

All of this. A few years ago, I broke out in head to toe hives for 3 months, so severe that I couldn't wear normal clothes. I couldn't wear anything but cotton. Round after round of antihistamines and prednisone and they kept coming back. \ I ended up seeing an allergist (who is a godsend)... my cortisol levels in my blood…

I am part Wookie, but no, I don't shave my arms. I did a few times when I was young for the summer, with bad side effects. Fortunately, it's blonde, so it's pretty much invisible unless you know what to look for.

Did they release the Charge HR yet? I want one so badly, but thought they weren't coming out til 1st quarter 2015. Because my Flex is dying...

Yup. Raised in the Springs, detoured for a while, and ended up back up here in North Denver. Not EVER leaving again. :D

Nope. I got talked into it once, and I'll never do it again. All of my family has worked retail and my best friend does too. I'm a party pooper, because I don't do any spending at all Thanksgiving weekend. Except maybe groceries if I am out of something.

Context is everything: http://www.today.com/style/model-myla-dalbesio-calvin-klein-using-me-groundbreaking-1D80280707 She was cast as a CK Underwear model - not a runway model, not a catalog model. This is a first for the industry, and I think a healthy move forward. The fact that she is being shamed for this is abhorrent,…

On the 10th anniversary of 9/11, I did the Memorial stair climb at Red Rocks. It consisted of the mile and a half hike in from the car and 9 laps around the entire stadium to simulate the 110 stories of the WTC. You didn't *have* to finish it, but as soon as I saw the firefighters in full gear with tanks, and kids ON TOP…

I love love love my Bluebuds. I resisted replacing my corded Sennheisers for years because the sound quality wasn't there. But these sound just as good, have great range, battery life and amazing fit and comfort. They don't move and I have funny ears. :disappointed:
