I'm still at work. Hopefully leaving in 40 minutes or so.

I don't post stuff very often on the open feed. I mostly comment on my friends successes and send messages. But I decided it is time to post something for all. I have been a member here at MFP since Feb 2013 and to the best of my recollection I have only missed three days of logging in. I have had much success and many…

I'm premium. Not sure I get extra value except no ads. If you wish to customize your macros and more sophisticated things like that it may have value.

activities are listed in METS burned per hour. there is a formula to converts METS to calories. calorie burn depends on age, weight and a few other factors

check this site out. Lots of good information. https://sites.google.com/site/compendiumofphysicalactivities/

Illinois... Way south of Chicago...

Welcome aboard... and best of luck!!!

My goal is 200 miles. I am at 0 for the month. I have some work to do.... I am signed up for a 56 mile ride on August 1. That will equal my longest ride ever.

I didn't notice the bag on the dresser until someone pointed it out... So, I had to go back and look again. My screen is not the greatest in the world, but i decided after about 5 seconds of looking that is was some kind of rope... and not a hemp rope.... LOL... A few posts later and my thoughts were confirmed.... I think…

Best of luck to you as you try to sort out all the issues you have going on in your life... do you have any close friends you can confide in? Or maybe a professional? Sometimes the emotional weight we are carrying is too heavy to carry alone...

I like your style Jo!!!!

We might even smuggle a case of Absolute to the island...

absolutely with Jo....

I have never done a century.. It is on my bucket list though. I just hope it isn't the reason I kick that damned bucket.... I switched to clipless pedals this season. My third as a cyclist... And have not had a crash yet. I use the shimano spf (i think that is the style) and they seem very easy to slip into and out of. the…

DQ Blizzards do it every time for me.... large one every day, along with a big mac or two per day and i am up 30 pounds in no time..... My weight will go up like a rocket.... takes 6 months to get it off.... Believe me, i know...

I have always been a bud light guy. I have a rule about beers. I don't drink anything I can't see through or that has ale in it's name. Now you know a bit about my taste. I recently tried bud select 55. It is a very light beer. 55 calories. And, as my brother in law says, you can drink a hundred of them and still not get a…

Southern Illinois. Small town near Effingham.

Rachel. Hell yeah!!

Tina and I will get along fine. Welcome aboard.

@ Mia.... she's too young... so, nope... but very attractive..

Nope, but I see Ria in here a lot or in a friends news feed. Not sure which. My memory is going!

Sugar is not evil. This is one of the dumbest threads I have ever seen. Seriously!!!!! I usually don't go off on these things. So, I apologize if you are offended.

Congrats on your anniversary and your success!!!!!

Southern Illinois...

Typical day 2 years ago. Bacon egg and cheese bagel breakfast meal at Mcdonald's, 4 coke's, 4 snickers bars and a couple bags of chips at work. Bacon cheeseburger and fries for lunch. Driving home snack, two cheeseburger value meal at McDonald's. Then dinner.... I am positive I ate 6000 calories some days. I'm doing better…

To fierceforties.... I'm in... for everything except pass.....

Welcome.. There are many success stories start with the first day. Here's to your success...

I thought the thread was meant for people whose age starts with a 6... I'm close to that.... How the hell did I get this damned old... but then I find it is for 6/10. I'm too low for that one... Not my day....

My health markers improved without doing one minute of heavy lifting or HIIT.

I can't speak to your situation. My cholesterol was not incredibly high, but I was on meds for it. I lost weight, ate a bit more healthy and did a fair amount of cardio each week. Blood pressure now normal, heart rate lowered dramatically, cholesterol normal and A1C now lower. I was never at diabetic A1C level, but my doc…
