I think I need to switch careers....

Thanks for the write-up, Sara. I'm due for session #12 of Strong Lifts today and I'm starting to finally hit weights that I struggle with. I've not been doing any warm up....and I've been wondering what to do (besides de-load) if my form was breaking or incorrect. Well-timed post for me!

I didn't read anything but the OP, but I just wanted to point out that for THOUSANDS of years, human children have had to MAKE BELIEVE with sticks and rocks and slimy crap they found on the ground. As recently a decade or so ago, entire countries and wars were made and lost with little green soldier men, and we could spend…

Well, then I'll take #1, #2, AND what SHOULD be in the top 10....Doctors. Holding people's lives, literally in your hands, is pretty freaking stressful. Add in the constant fear of law suits taking away everything you've worked so hard for....yeah.....

Bring in a BIG bottle of Peanut Butter. You get your protein and get to laugh at them as they slather 14 servings of it on their celery, apples, etc???

Orange infused dark chocolate bar is my all-time FAVORITE flavor....seriously. YUM!!!!! edited: for rereading the label

*SNORT* I was going to add that I don't like my food to touch much, and definitely not mix (although I'd dip one food into another...like meat into mashed potatoes)....but my thing is that I have to cut EVERYTHING into bite-sized pieces before I start actually eating. All the meat, the broccoli, etc. Once everything is…

You know what's even better about Dolph? He's SUPER smart. Has a couple of Engineering degrees...one from MIT. That's why a couple of his lines in The Expendables are so funny (to those who know). He always portrays the "big, dumb, jock", but he's anything other. *Swoon* for 80s Dolph......

Thanks for the question, and the answers. I'm in the same boat...need more protein, without too much extra carbs or fat.

Is it like buttered fried cheese curds? Because that would be awesome...

Right?

Give it a few more months and you'll be like the rest of us have Mirena wearers....with no periods at all for YEARS....... Ahhhhh, the freedom..........

Thanks for the link. I'd hadn't watched it in a while....now I'm crying with laughter. *proud owner of the Jenkins title for many years* edit: if you're not a gamer nerd or have never raided in WoW (or have no clue about what WoW even is....) you will STILL not get this.... ;)

Do people, who don't play WoW, even get this??

Climb a mountain higher than 10,000 feet. Although I'd settle for getting up a 1000 ft one right now.....

Me: in the buff DH: in the buff when he wants some (otherwise, boxer briefs). It's his version of a "subtle hint".....

Student loan debt?

I have a sexy, hairy man....front side is fine....back side gets the occasional trim (from the waist up...luckily, he was spared the Sasquach-*kitten*) I call him "silver back" when it starts getting a little unruly.... ;)

Oh...tainted love! Tainted love!

Me too!

I have access to one of the BEST gyms anywhere, for free - the Navy gym at the base 2 mins from my house - and yet, I workout at home 99% of the time. Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the Navy gym, but the hours (especially now with the effing "sequester") suck with my crazy schedule, so I have invested in my own home gym, a…

Thank you Sara & SS....MUCH appreciated!! Will start making adjustments ASAP & update as we go. :) Thank you for understanding with the "eating out". It's an unfortunate hazard with my current job. I am doing much better with making better choices, but there's still room for improvement.

Sorry, diary public now...was already open to friends

Gotcha. Well, if it helps, I've been wearing the armband, pretty much 24/7 for almost 2 years. On a "slow" day (go to work, come home, veg on couch, sleep) I'm at 2400 cals. Average days (work, 30 min walk, 8000 steps, no other workout) 2600-2800. Workout days w/ walk 2900-3100. Weekend with a hike, or lawn mowing / garden…

The armband syncs to MFP and my food log here. It then subtracts the two for my true deficit. Or at least that's the way I've understood it. Mayhaps there is a problem?

The post helps me... :smile:

Agreed. And if you were naughty, "at weight", it can only get naughtier. <---naughty at weight.

Top, behind, sideways, top. Hospital tucked bed sheets are complicated!!! :smokin:
