Love the hair and eyes!

very pretty :)

I don't think she's necessarily degrading being a size zero.... but the fact that a lot of women believe that to be beautiful they need to be a size zero, which isn't true. If your body type allows you to be strong and healthy at a size zero, go for it! No one is stopping you :) But for women who have larger frames and…

Uhm. 68 =/

I wasn't expecting this post to get quite so much attention, but I do enjoy getting to hear opinions from either side. I don't need to argue. We can respectfully agree to disagree if needed. But thanks everyone for contributing :)

As my original post said..... sexual attraction can add dynamic to a friendship, but that doesn't mean that you have to act on it.

Thank you.

We can agree to disagree. You cannot group all men together. And I don't consider myself to be ignorant either. I just tend to want to know reasons behind things, and wanted some other perspectives.

My apologies. The research in question looked at cross-sex friendships through the perspective of evolutionary psychology. They posed questions to individuals in opposite-sex friendships and found that men were more likely to be attracted to their female friends than women were to their male friends, and that men also…

It's apparent to me that maybe some of you just haven't found a person that truly GETS you. Not one that wants to sleep with you, but just understands who you are. This type of person can be male or female.

I agree with this completely. I'm not married but I have seen marriages fall apart due to another woman or another man. It's sad that people don't know boundaries. But that doesn't mean that men and women still can't be legitimate platonic friends.

Of course. This explains it all. lol

I've seen it, and I still disagree. I think that they are trying to show is that men are more likely to try to push a friendship into romantic or sexual territory, and between nominally platonic friends... that is a burden. But it’s a huge leap to suggest that this completely prevents friendships between men and women. YES…

Congrats! That is truly fantastic! :)

french kiss

yes

To focus on the waist, I've learned.... do reverse crunches and bicycle crunches

don't you like living life on the edge?!

blasphemy! All facial hair is good :)

Personally, I am 5'8" and my goal is to get to 160lbs which is at the very top of the "recommended" weight I be at. It varies from person to person because for myself, if I even drop 5lbs and get to 155, my ribs and hip bones start poking out.... and I do not find that attractive. I have broad shoulders and wide hips…

Don't think... just do it! :)

Lucky for all you men reporting... there are tons of sexy bodies underneath the weight that us women are here to lose ;)

Here as well =/

Facial hair is just.... for a lack of better words... masculine. And sexy as all hell. Love it!

^^^^ This. If you are serious about dieting and getting your health in order... WHY ARE YOU STILL DRINKING SODA?! No Soda is "okay" for you. End of story.

the more the merrier!! All are welcome. Even if you started a few days ago, or if you plan to start next week! the more support we have the less likely we are to give up or fail :)

I saw the other groups and have added a few people from those threads. But since we have different start dates I figured I'd post my own thread :)

I completed day one of level one! Only had to take two 5 second breathers, which was better than I expected. I used the 3lb dumbbells today but might use my 5lb ones tomorrow. I didn't feel the burn in my arms much. I'm sore, but I can't wait to feel it tomorrow.

I'm the same way. I would like to develop a group of MFP friends so feel free to add me! Just make sure you're willing to hold me accountable, and I'll do the same! :)

I used to be addicted to snacking also. Try looking into trying different types of food that keep you full longer. Also, chewing sugarfree gum helps me. It lets me chew, without consuming all the calories and whatnot. If you snack a lot while you are home... (this is going to sound weird...) but eat NAKED and in front of a…
