Take a squirt bottle of WATER with you - buy a brand new, preferably clear one so there's no confusion as to what could be in it. The aggressive dog's owner does nothing to control their dog then you do what you have to to protect yours. Kindly ask him to mind his dog and either restrain or remove it should the owner…

You did good reporting to the management - saying something instead of going on in and ignoring the whole situation. Should you be elsewhere that there's not a managerial setup do not be afraid to involve the authorities as it is likely the gym (or wherever) is not the only place the parent leaves the kids in the car.…

I have hypothyroidism also and agree with cary & Jenna that maintaining meds and regular appointments with an endocrinologist are the way to manage it - or at least that's what I do. I also avoid added salt because the hypo makes me retain water like crazy and water = weight (at least on the scale). The other thing about…

I work in a federal detention facility... it's not hard to get catcalls from incarcerated males... :laugh: BUT! It's taken as a sign of disrespect - that's why we have handcuffs and hot sauce! I guess it depends on the source and their level of respect tied to it; I agree with others that creepy comments and leering people…

I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism in the late 90's; one of the symproms being stubborn weight gain - stubborn meaning not going away regardless of how much I ate or moved about. Doctor told me 60% of American women end up with it and 40% go undiagnosed until their mid-life. It's a simple TSH (thyroid stimulating hormone)…

It seemed more personal than Livestrong. I like the affiliated apps that go with it also. Forums are pretty helpful and generally entertaining and a good way to garner support.

Hi! I'm Kris, 46, and just joined MFP last week. Working to get healthy and stay healthy because I sure feel better when I'm fit. Really surprised at how MUCH food I eat - the daily tracker is a very usefully annoying thing! So - I'm currently fighting a cheeseburger craving from my desk at work and glad to have found this…

Adductor exercises with an elastic band attached to a stationary object or to your other leg... if you're not clumsy like me! (Effectively a really big rubber band around your ankles and move your legs against the resistance.) Also, and don't laugh, the Brazil Butt Lift from Beachbody actually works! Especially if you're…

My C25k (Android) breaks down the running and walking - for instance just calculated 1.5 miles in 15 minutes on week 3 day 1 when I went 3 miles in 45 minutes total - but at the bottom it gave me a total and I added them together and plugged them in. Anyway - I've synced my Endomondo to MFP on my Android phone and it will…

Hi! I'm 47 and trying to drop the 25 pounds I've put on since May of 2012. I fell in love and he like to EAT! And he eats LATE! So... trying to get it together, set a couple of boundaries and get back into feeling healthy! Plus - I believe my poor feet will thank me!
