I eat Lundberg wild rice mix...it is awesome! Much healthier than white rice! http://www.lundberg.com/products/rice.aspx

I am here to lose weight and learn to live a healthier lifestyle. I am not the grammar police, nor should anyone else (be). If I start spending my time critiquing the spelling/ grammar of others on MFP I have taken my attention off of my goals. If someone can't spell....that is none of my business. A misspelled word…

I don't drink. It isn't healthy for me and besides I am a recovering addict (4 years clean). So...for me it's just virgin drinks.

One word...anonymity!

I lost almost all the hair from my temples and across the top of my head. I looked like a man with a receding hairline. I was so self-conscious. I started taking oral Biotin (3000 mcg a day, preferably the oral disintegrating kind) available at Walmart (Natrol brand) found with the vitamins. I also went to a health food…

I use to live in Laurinburg and Rockingham.

I didn't take time to read pages and pages of replies. I just posted my reply...so I had no idea what had already been said. I just think 6000 calories is a huge amount. I was not able to look at her diary to see the trend of her daily exercise routine for a week or so. You can't count stuff you do in a regular day as…

I'm just starting back too. I gained half of the weight I lost back. You are not alone. There are many in your shoes. I have a horrible self-image of myself. We are always our worst critics. Hang in there. You can do this.

I have a major anxiety disorder. I became addicted to Xanax for 13 years and had to go to rehab. I now have a service dog for my anxiety. She goes everywhere with me. That is her in my profile pic (Sweetpea). She helps me more than anything I have ever tried. She even goes to the gym and pool with me. She just sits quietly…

What are you doing to burn 6000 calories a day? You have your diary so we can't see it. Are you recording everything you do like housework, etc. Anything you do in your every day life doesn't count. If it puts your heart rate in the target range for an extended period of time and makes you sweat then it is exercise.…

EuroDriver12 beats you by a long shot!!

You remind me of diarrhea. Every time you think the $h!t is gonna stop....more and more and more keeps coming out! Dude, take some Immodium and plug it up. You need to channel all this energy somewhere else.

And what is your goal?

I could really care less. When it all comes down to it, it isn't what is on the outside that defines us. What is in our heart, mind, and soul is what leaves an impression on the world and those within it. Some of the most beautiful people (on the outside) in this world are ugly as tar on the inside!

Because it clearly states in the rules for the discussion boards not to discuss religion or politics.

Why would religious preference make a difference here?

I think feeling guilty after eating something we shouldn't is a good thing. Before I started this I never felt any guilt after eating anything. I could stuff my face and not care. The fact that you felt guilt shows just how much progress you have made. Just don't make a habit of it. You know how it made you feel...so try…

Sorry, but the pinup looks all dysmorphic and out of proportion. Her face is short, wide and squatty and her abdomen in wide and twisted. Not very feminine looking. Sorry.

I use Dymatize Elite - - Gourmet Vanilla and I mix it with unsweetened Almond Breeze and add a pack of stevia to it. I think the taste is great. I also add a cup of frozen fruit to it sometimes. I buy it from GNC, but I think you can order it online too.

If you have gone 30 years needing beer on a daily basis maybe you should try something like AA. Sounds like an addiction to me.

Why aren't you eating lunch? You can't just skip meals. It makes your blood sugar drop and will slow down your weight loss. Also, I saw several days where your calorie intake was way too low, especially on those days where you are burning over 1,000 calories in exercise. Eat more protein and less carbs too. That will help.…

1200 net calories - 400 exercise calories = 800 net calories...so...800 net calories + 400 calories eaten back from exercise= 1200 net calories. I hope this makes sense.

I live in Kokomo, IN. I have been struggling since the new year. I love encouraging others...however, could use some of my own right now too. Would love to connect.

How long ago was the one on the right taken. I am asking because the tattoos are different than the pic on the left.

My dog is also my service dog (that is her in my profile pic). Her name is Sweetpea. She has been by my side for the last 7 years of my life...everywhere I go. She has been to college with me when I got my bachelor's degree, church, Walmart, in taxis, on busses, the hair salon, flown to California, there isn't a place that…

Do people honestly think we have time to read these long *kitten* posts that go on forever? Keep it short and sweet and get rid of all the fluff! I don't know about other people, but when I see a post as long as my let I automatically skip it!

Ummmmm......you lost me at the beginning of that long-winded post! However...last I checked a pound is a pound. I think your post was way over the heads of many!

I had a thread I started (about "loose" and "lose")get deleted too. I think some of the moderators are quite anal about what we talk about here.

An elephant heart.....ewwwww! But I have a two month old horse to go!
