Man, I hate checking. I really wish I could make that go away. Some people think it is amusing, but when it takes up tons of your time and you never really feel that anxiety go away, it's just not that funny!

It *is* exhausting!!! (I've heard that one, too!) I'm also always surprised when people say they are thinking about nothing - how is that even possible??? And I'll definitely go add you! And then I'll double-check to make sure I've actually done so. :)

Ugh. I've been there. Sucks. :( However, I'm glad you got diagnosed so young, and hope that it helped you some to know earlier. I was an adult before I found out, and I think of how much better some things would have been had I been receiving treatment.

Glad to know ya! Zoloft was the first one I tried. I had limited results and the side effects were bad (weight gain that put me at my highest weight ever, and I just felt like I was covered in film - everything was muted). The best med I've ever taken was clomipramine - I was almost 100% symptom free for a couple of years…

Nobody?

Trying again, it uploaded WAY too big before!!!

I've had this on my right calf for about 14 years and I love it. It was my first tattoo, and is still my favorite.

Another Marylander here (transplant, not native) - HoCo! :D You've already made some amazing progress - glad you're here!!!

I have a retirement party to attend this week. I think the menu will allow me to be reasonably healthy, but the dessert is my favorite cake from a small grocery market here. It's something that I never get to have because it is an hour away and I'm not driving that far to get a cake I'd have to eat all by myself. I think I…

I don't think this is a problem for me. I have OCD, and so I am fairly maniacal about logging EVERYTHING. Case in point, yesterday my son got a banana milkshake from Checkers, which he was raving about. Having never tried it before, I had one big sip and gave it back. I logged onto MFP and put in 1/10th of the milkshake,…

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

I love to do Kinect Sports and Kinect Your Shape Fitness Evolved 2012. If it's a gross day and I just want to stay inside, these are handy for a workout. It's also nice to be good at baseball for once in my life, even if it's just pretend. :)

Made this today and it was delicious, and a big hit! Used 2% milk Mexican blend cheese and doubled the corn, but otherwise made exactly to recipe. I think the chicken breasts I bought were a bit thick, so I had to cook about an hour to get the chicken to the right temp. Sooooo good.

I think I love you.

Ohhhhhh. I thought you were supposed to basically do 30DS every day for the 30 days, with maybe one break a week. If it's only a few days then I suppose I could push past the soreness and just take turns on them...

I just started 'The Wise Man's Fear - The Kingkiller Chronicle: Day Two.' So far it is as fantastic as the first one, 'The Name of the Wind.' If you like magic/fantasy, I definitely recommend it.

You can make it all the ways suggested here. I'm not much of a cook, so I heat mine, add a bit of water to it (or milk if you prefer) and mash it into a mashed potato-like consistency. I serve it with tomatoes and snap peas that I sauteed in either olive oil or chicken broth. I love it.

Are you near one of the NY Wegman's? They make a store brand that is great!

You look amazing! I swear to god if my butt looks like that when I'm done, my head will explode! :)

Ah, that's on my list as well, I forgot to put it! ;)

These are in my regular run mix. I would think that many of the songs by these same bands would fit the bill. Bodies - Drowning Pool Bonfire - Knife Party Six - All That Remains Not Alone - All That Remains The Final Episode - Asking Alexandria Arguing With Thermometers - Enter Shikari Aisle - The Bunny the Bear I Will Not…

This is my favorite kind of music to run to, including Disturbed!

I ... I want a store called Comics & Coffee. :(

Hello, everyone! I'm Alice, a 36 year old atheist pansexual nerd living in Baltimore. I am SO glad to find you! I was glad to discover fellow geeks on here, but I think I am even more relieved to find some atheists and agnostics about the place. As much I like meeting other people for support, I'm not really motivated by…

Your results look fantastic! And, as someone recently said to me (and it really made me happy) - you look so much younger in the second picture!!!

I have a fish that has a magic wand and a tophat, and it says RANDI inside. Because James Randi rules. I recently saw the Coexist design done but with sci-fi weapons forming the letters. I kinda want it. And, I see my BFF Katt1320 has posted a Tim Minchin reference. I could not love you more, woman.

He totally did. I was giggling over it in the theater.

I'm on Week 3 and love it so far. I always think I'm not going to make it, but so far every time I'm pushing through and doing great! :) In the Groups area of the Community section of this website, there is a group for people who are starting, currently doing, or finished C25K, so you may find more support there!

I have a solution - go see it on your own!!! :D

Thanks, guys. That's what I thought, and what I am doing. I was really just curious. :)
