sigh.... age is just a number right?? I'd love to actually think that... i'm 27... i've met guys and liked them, whether they be older or younger, and i don't really think anything of it until it hits me.... he's older than my uncle (who is really only 13 years older than me)... or he's younger than my cousins (who are…

my NSV today was looking in the mirror at work and feeling like i am finally starting to see some good changes :D

Yes, i'm eating chicken, fish, meat, pork, etc. I try to have eggs as often as possible (admittedly, I often oversleep and don't have time to make them, orr, i'm just not in the mood.) I still feel like i'll never hit my protein goals unless i have 2 servings of protein powder per day (i only have 1 right now), and have…

not knowing the extent of damage to the cartilage, i think your best bet besides walking would be riding a bike, especially a stationary one that you can put on a low resistance and work your way up. If you find that you can do it for 15 minutes the first day, then aim to increase it by 1 minute each session. also, if…

THE LUMINEERS. Great song. Great band.

you can tell how much weight you lost bc in the first pic your wedding band is on your ring finger... in the second, it's on your middle finger... got a little big huh? lol

Thanks everyone for your suggestions!!! I do make omelets, i guess i just forgot to list them, usually 1 hold eggs plus 2 egg whites with mushrooms, pico de gallo, and 1/4 cup of mixed cheese. My yogurt or some sort of fruit is my mid morning snack. I leave pretty early because i live an hour from work, so i need that…

can't be too easy or we all wouldn't need MFP. PS. :tongue: smokin' hott

26 and.... felt hot after about a year on MFP before i foolishly stopped logging and working out... working back towards it now.

i had this conversation with my friend last week... i'm all about a guy's back... triceps are a close second... but broad shoulders and a strong back are an INSTANT turn on for me

any kind of standing balance exercises will help strengthen your ankle... trying standing on one leg, throwing a ball against a wall or in the air and catching it... standing on a foam pad, or a boss ball, or even a pillow or thick folded towel to start with.. single leg calf raises... single leg squats.... for all of…

i'm 26, 5'5" .. started MFP at 174 lbs in Jan 2010. Got down to 136 at one point. Then gained most of it back and i'm now 160ish. my calorie goals are around 1350. Admittedly i'm not as dedicated as i was when i started, so i could use some extra motivation.

my problem with this is the following: Guys compliment girls in FR by saying You're hot, I think you're cute, blah blah... and most of us take it as a compliment. But it's a usual, every day occurrence that a guy is basically hitting on you through a computer. If a girl, turns around, and FR a guy, and sends a message…

how many bridesmaids are you having? when i was in my friend's wedding, we paid for the dresses, and had to get our own shoes (as long as they were silver, they were long dresses, so matching shoes didn't matter). The bride and her mother in law paid for getting our hair done and pedicures. The bride also made our gifts…

ok so my info was apparently wrong... this ISNT chris odonnell... but he's still gorgeous.

top post of the day. I decided that since i was single i'd spend a little more time at the gym today. then i made myself a nice dinner, and i'm currently babysitting my Valentine, my Godson, and drinking some delicious wine. o, and I bought myself a present earlier lol... well nobody else was going to, and i deserve it!

since we can't post videos, i've had this eye candy in my mind since the super bowl http://www.nfl.com/videos/nfl-super-bowl-commercials/09000d5d8268e196/HM-David-Beckham

True, but he made it awesome again.

GO GIANTS!

another Barney Stinson-ism?

TRL. and the real first forms of text messaging: pager messages: 43770 = hello 143 = i love you 1 177155 400 = i miss you (okay well the pager numbers looked better lol)

for all the reasons the above posters have mentioned.... dump BOY #1, and try things out with MAN #2. And do it quick, because the "Friend Zone" is an awful place for all involved, and it's difficult to get out of it once you are there.

this just became my favorite thread.... bump bump bump so i can look later, tomorrow, make it my background, etc : P

can't watch the video but agree with this entire post... piriformis is a very common cause of sciatic nerve pain. also, some warm heat on your low back and buttocks might help to loosen it up before you stretch.

Couldn't agree more.. A lot of people think it comes from impaired circulation, but it's actually nerve compression. It happens to me as well, especially since i sprained my ankle and am on the elliptical since i CAN'T move my foot a lot. Shifting weight always seems to help me. I think people tend to put more weight on…

Every personal trainer and every person they train is different. Some people need that push just to get into a gym. I had an experience with a personal trainer a few years ago when i joined the gym, before I started with MFP. I almost passed out. It made me realize how out of shape i was. I went home and sulked, and felt…

I have a workout playlist with about 200 different songs on it, with all different genres. Country is one of them, and while there aren't a lot of songs out there that get me pumped, here are a few: Devil Went Down to Georgia - Charlie Daniel's Band How Far Do You Wanna Go - Gloriana My Kind of Party - Jason Aldean One…

i got 30DS from walmart for $8

just did a search for this because i was having the same problem... I know you posted this a while ago but i just wanted to tell you the stupid mistake i made. the "electrode" part of the strap is not the middle where the connector snaps in... it's on either side of it. i was wetting the wrong area. I have to say though,…

does anyone know anything about the hard drive of the xbox?? the one in the bundle is small, but i know the xbox comes in huge capacities like 250 GB. is the crazy large amount of memory necessary??
