This isn't always true. Three years ago, I started really paying attention to what I was eating as well as adhering to a daily workout schedule.

Pretty eyes and cheekbones :)

I'm from Waycross!

FANTASTIC results! I am just getting back into things. I'm finishing up college and will be done in August. That, coupled with working full-time is stressful and my health has suffered. Thanks for the inspiration!

Athens. It's hot. Gym it is.

Thank you! I always thought protein was supposed to be after .. but I guess it couldn't hurt to do before. I have problems with sugar and carbs making me sleepy ... but I'm sure I'll find the right balance.

lol, thanks.

There are a lot of nutrients in the egg yolks that you don't get in the whites alone. I feel it's worth it to eat the whole egg, cholesterol and all. Also, organic eggs have less "bad stuff" and more "good stuff" than non-organic. It's worth the few cents difference to me.

Today I just went and ran for a while.. stretched all the muscles out. I feel a lot better.

Congrats.. that's pretty awesome. My gym just added 30 min ab classes... so I'm going to try that out. I'll have to try your way sometime :)

Oh yea, I also left out I'm lactose intolerant . :/ Chocolate milk sounds like a tasty recovery treat .. but it isn't really an option :(

I'm pretty sure this is the only time I've ever been home alone. First 3 years of my adult life I was in a relationship. The following 2 years I was with friends at a bar or a party. This year I've been more reclusive and insanely busy. So while friends are out of town or at the bars and my ex is off with his new…

True life facts. This is why MFP is so awesome!

I didn't know that drink had a name. loveeee 100 proof schapps and hot chocolate. I haven't had it since I was snowed in last year, but so good!

I thought so :) I love cheesy stuff like that.

Blue Moon -sans orange :)

Thank you! I try to "count carbs" but unfortunately my schedule is so sporadic it is hard to do. Lucky for me, since I generally chose to eat things lower in sugar I don't have too terrible of cravings. I love my veggies :). It's good to hear that you have had success. I've lost a pretty good bit in the past month, but I…

lies! lol. I have a Flovent inhaler I am supposed to use daily now, but I don't. I mean of course one medication can't explain it all... but it definitely caused me to swell up like a chipmunk and killed any progress I had made. The crazy thing is that the medication made me feel so sick that I hardly ate, but alas...

"(908): it went kinda like vodka, childhood memories, screaming/cursing, fist fight, tears, broken ****, passing out. in that order. tis the season." lol. Seriously thought, my family doesn't drink. So if I drink anything it'll probably be beer or wine smuggled with my little brother in solo cups . Ha.

What did you do to lose the weight and manage the symptoms. I'm not taking Metformin, but I've tried to eat lower carb. I've lost some weight, but any pointers/guidelines would be nice.

Thanks guys, I'm getting it worked out. I've rested and worked out today. I just have to shake the anxiety. I do have friends and I am not alone. Things usually do work out eventually ... I guess I'm just tired of struggling because it seems like I have been for a while.

That game is addictive, but begrudgingly I admit it's fun. I had an ex cheat on me with someone he met on there. Took me 3 years to find out , but it is what it is. Anyways.. that just reminded me of this : http://youtu.be/9PM5dt3KRzc But seriously, congrats to everyone for putting themselves out there and finding…

I think the embarrassment would come into play because they are people I know... like best friends with my roommate and other random connections... but not close with me. So I feel like they would talk about me to the mutual people. IDK. It's dumb. I guess I should just put myself out there.

I've had it happen a lot.. mostly during stressful times. I have asthma and one time I went through an episode where I woke up on my back. I could hear my roommates' entire conversation in the living room but I couldn't move. I would then slip back into an unconscious state where I told myself I needed to grab my phone to…

LMAO. Maybe it's just been too long. Recent conversation while talking to my friend's dad. In reference to his new TV : "When you told me how big it was, I didn't realize it was going to be this big. I thought I had seen pretty big TV's before, but this is ridiculous. Maybe it's just been a while since I've seen a big one,…

ahh.. the alarm thing. Drives me insane! I'm the type of person that once I'm woken up, I'm up. I had an ex who would sleep through the alarm..and then when did finally hear it he would hit snooze. I would eventually be the one to get him up, which sucks when I worked nights. Glad that babysitting duty is over!

Thanks ! lmao. I have earplugs so we will just see. My first thought when I moved in was that maybe floors are just cheap (they are my upstairs neighbors). I know my roommates and I are the quietest, I have a dog that likes to run laps up the hallway and I can be clumsy first thing in the morning. I asked my downstairs…
