Maybe you need to reevaluate your calorie goals? While it could be unlikely, your daily goal could be too high, or maybe you're just not used to eating enough calories because you've been a bit deprived in the past. Try slowly adding small, calorie-dense snacks, like nuts, or add some peanut butter to a piece of…

Chocolate!!! Also, this topic is making my salivate...

Hey there, I'm on 1800 calories a day and aiming to lose about 0.5lb a week--feel free to add me!

I had two moments that contributed to my wake-up call. The first was that I went on a mountain bike ride with my family and new boyfriend on Thanksgiving. I ended up getting out ridden by an eight year old and I was furious at myself for being incapable of keeping up with the group, not to mention how embarrassed I was…

I have high standards. Practice makes perfect!

That hussy! She told me I was the only one.

While drunk at the strip club, a man told said to me, "You have beautiful, sparkly vampire eyes." It was so awful I gagged. Alas, I married him three years later.

You could braid those suckers! Like pigtails.

I love my husband too. He brings me coffee every morning, he lifts with me, we head bang and play video games together, and he knows how to turn the oven and vaccuum on. Pretty perfect IMO.

I'd pick compound exercises to work as much as possible in a short period of time, such as: Thrusters Clean and Press Lunge with side raise Plank with upward row Wall squat with bicep curl Any variation of push up

Rammstein's Made in Germany tour in 2012! I saw them in 2011 for their amazing LIFAD tour as well but the 2012 show was even better.

I have this too! My other two phobias are agoraphobia and thanatophobia. Pet peeves: loud talkers in quiet places, nail biters, uneven numbers, people who shove their beliefs, ideologies, politics, etc down your throat without asking. I could go on and on. It's amazing I get along with anyone, really. Oddities: I have a…

I have bad knees as well and cycling has definitely helped build some strength in my legs, especially climbing hills. Swimming has also been great, as has yoga. I've been seeing a trainer to help build muscle in my quads, hamstrings, and hips in order to ease my knee pain; since then, I've been able to ease into squats and…

I really like doing mine on a stability ball or with the TRX; the latter is especially challenging and interesting. I avoid eye contact, but I will grunt powerfully with each thrust to announce to the world that my hips are glorious and deserving of attention.

I'm sure this is totally possible, however some people may want to be left alone...like me. I am a cranky, anti-social seventy year old lady at heart. I put my headphones on and pretend everyone else isn't there in the nicest way possible, even when I swim lanes. I like to focus when I workout, plus I suppose I'm a bit…

St Lucia for my honeymoon! LOVED it. You can go anywhere in the world but it's a one-way trip: where do you go?

"Yikes, thank God for coffee."

Oh lordy, Wikipedia led you astray too? Honey, I've been there too, and it's something a lot more people need to take seriously. One night at my local watering hole, I ran into a dark, mysterious being that called itself Wiki. I was young and naive, and it kept the drinks and misinformation coming until the sun came up.…

Because he kept using his abs to grate cheese.

Ugh, I know! There are only so many times I can watch Into Darkness! Besides that, all I have are gifs and youtube videos. Do you know which channel it'll be on in the US?

In terms of celebrities, I admire Trent Reznor from Nine Inch Nails. But my real heroes are my parents. Financially responsible, madly in love after thirty years, and fit as fiddles in their fifties.

I get turned on when a man has a cleft chin. It's like, dang, THAT is a man chin, not a boy chin.

He uses kilograms instead of pounds. Like, omg.

I used Livestrong's MyPlate for two years but the site started getting really commercial. I was really turned off by all the product placements in their articles; everything started to feel really biased. The food database was also lacking and it was a pain to get anything added. I use to look up calories in MFP to fill in…

I actually just read about this yesterday on Wikipedia (not totally legit but whatevs!) and Peter Jackson has admitted that they often forgot to put in Orlando Bloom's contacts during the filming of LOTR. I guess they learned their lesson in the Hobbit?

I have this problem, though in my case it's caused by being flat-footed rather than from a specific exercise. In addition to strengthening your quads, hips, and hamstrings, you can also try taping the knee or wearing a brace, though you shouldn't come to rely on these options as they won't help strengthen the knee in the…

1. Weigh, measure, and log everything you eat to stay under your calorie goal 2. Determine what your calorie goal actually is (more often than not, it's not 1,200 calories!) 3. Make exercise a priority in your life. Plan your workouts for the week and don't cancel them; think of it as cancelling plans with a friend. You…
