KC - I highly recommend Twining's Earl Grey k-cups! Also, it's not a k-cup, but the brand Celestials makes a tea called Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride which is amazing! I'm a bit of a tea enthusiast, haha. I've got about 20 or 30 types of tea at home including k-cups, bags, and loose-leaf!

Hey, I'm about to turn 26 so a little outside your age range, but if you'd like you could still add me. :) I've got a little experience with the ED type stuff, too, so maybe we could relate. I keep my food diary private, so I hope that's ok.

Happy New Year everyone! :) I'm a newbie to this group so I hope it's ok if I join in on this thread. I'm not a fitness/weight-loss newbie if it makes a difference. I just stopped using MFP for a while. Anyway, 2 week goals are pretty standard! 1. Stick to calorie limit every day, and track every day 2. Exercise 2 to 3…

Hello from North Louisiana! About 8 hours away but that's not that far for the South, haha!

Welcome to the group! Good luck reaching all your goals, you can do it!! You seem very committed. :) Drinking more water is a great start! You might find that you're actually hungry less, because what you thought was hunger was actually thirst! I too hate how expensive it can be to eat healthy. People act like it's so much…

That's really cool that your company does that stuff! I work for kind of a small company, so don't have access to anything like that. My husband's job gives us a discount at a nearby gym, and we used that for a while, but we fell off the wagon over the Summer. We want to get some equipment for home, because our biggest…

At first I thought you said "biting the strap on my straitjacket". I'm not sure what that says about me.

If they're not rude or creepy about it (like outright catcalling) then I usually just laugh or smile. One time I wore a dress that was a bit busty to the movies (with my husband!!!), and a man stared with his mouth literally hanging open until his wife elbowed him in the side. How can you not laugh at that! It can be a…

Indeed. Unfortunately I'm at 527 and gaining slowly. Everyone wants 540 min. for normals, which is reasonable. Just difficult to get there when I don't even have a reliable flex group. :-\ I also have terrible luck when it comes to loot, haha. I had blue bracers (450 ilvl) for months, despite opening every TI chest on 4…

Get along pretty well with them! Probably a little better than my own family. There are some religious differences (I'm not religious) but they haven't mentioned anything about it since before we got married, thankfully. Even then, they never said anything to me about it. They talked to my husband out of concern, which…

I play on Windrunner/Darrowmere, Alliance side. Been bored out of my mind lately, and would really like to find a nice raiding group (even if it's just flex, I'm a little undergeared still). My battle tag is Tiru#1166. My main is a DPS DK, and I've got a resto druid too but I don't play him much these days.

Awesome! I exercised for the first time in like 6 months yesterday. I tried to do level 1 of Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred and only made it halfway through. And i'm actually sore today! Ridiculous, haha. Can't believe I let myself get so weak!! What kind of exercise are you planning to do?
-
I'm always looking for new friends. :) I could definitely use help being kept accountable as far as exercise goes! That's my downfall. My food diary is private, but I suppose I could change it if it really matters.

Thanks for the nerdfitness suggestion, Jester. Very helpful, simple routine!

There's nothing wrong with doing body-weight strength training. If you don't have access to weights at all, you can just do normal pushups, crunches, planks, squats, etc. I don't know an exact routine (looking for one myself, actually, same situation as you for weights), but searching around on the internet should give you…

Corn-mushroom risotto (leave out the bacon) - http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/corn-mushroom-risotto-recipe/index.html Taco soup, like this one - http://www.food.com/recipe/vegetarian-taco-soup-29121 Although I only use beans (no peas, corn, green beans) and don't use a ranch packet. You can also…

I'll toss my hat in this ring as well! I'm about to be 26, I'm 5'5", CW 135, GW 125ish. Especially looking for folks who eat around 1200 cals a day. All my friends quit!

100% of people exposed to dihydrogen monoxide DIE!!!

I think it's because our body prioritizes keeping itself alive over reproduction. If you're losing weight, your body thinks there's not enough food to support a baby!

Gonna chime in for the booby donations. Currently a G cup. Take some, PLEASE!

The Walden Farms "peanut butter" is the worst thing I have ever tasted in my entire life. It was so bad it killed my appetite for the rest of the day. So, I guess you could lose weight that way?
-
If you only went over a small amount, don't sweat it! Everyone goes a little over sometimes. As for the 3500 calories thing, it doesn't necessarily mean in one day. Say you're meant to eat 1500 calories a day, but instead you eat 1850. If you did that for 10 days you would gain 1 lb of fat (barring any other factors). So,…

What would be the logic in making it worse, especially if you just said you were satisfied (not hungry)? If I go over, I'm very careful about what I choose for the rest of the day/evening, to minimize the damage. If you were more active than usual, what's the problem? No need to freak out. **** happens.
