You're stunning, lady! And only twenty to go! You should throw yourself another spa day when you hit your goal, just to bring things full circle.

@Banana: This is fun! Are we allowed to give the creature an occupation? If so, I say viking wolf. By the way, that's one of my favorite profile pictures, to date. :D

@MoJokes: ...because... ...you want to hear more of my jokes! And you like to keep it natural. ;)

Sweet! I told those jokes to the right person. Nerd-comedy fans, unite!

@Jasmine: :happy:

Oh... Well scrap that idea, then--unless diarrhea is your thing. Curses! There goes my street-cred...

None of this would have happened if that woman was a honey badger.

Yeesh... Tough crowd.

There's T-25, although it costs some dollars. Truth be told, some of the workouts are tough on your knees, but there's a modifier in the group (Tanya) that shows a lower-impact version of whatever workout is going on.

Let's test that hypothesis: Exhibit A) Why don't kleptomaniacs get puns? .......Because they take everything literally. Exhibit B) A woman walked into a bar and asked the bartender for a double entendre... ...so he GAVE it to her. Exhibit C) The Higgs Boson wants to take in a Sunday service, so it goes to a Catholic…

...you look like you would laugh at my jokes. :)

It's nice to know there are some things in life you can count on. ;)

Haha! You may as well believe me. I don't stand to gain much by lying on a My Fitness Pal forum. Amped is slang and originated from the word amplified. In this context, I'm using the word to say I'm "fired up" or excited. A bouy is a flotation device--like the ones you see bobbing around to mark boundaries in the water,…

Riggers, you're a badass. I got amped reading your post, and I feel really buoyed by your progress and your positivity. Congratulations, and thanks for inspiring the rest of us!

@Stages95: Did you anticipate this much controversy over your question?

Also, I haven't ready any of the peer reviewed articles regarding the impacts of artificial sweeteners on your health, but xylitol and stevia haven't been shown to have adverse affects. My dental hygienist was actually singing the praises of xylitol during my last checkup. You could always give those beverages a shot if…

Drinking diet soda is better for your dieting in the long run, but just as bad for your teeth. Like the folks have been saying, water is best. If it's not interesting enough or quenching enough for your pallet, you could try throwing a little concentrated unsweetened cherry juice into your water bottle. Some people go for…

Aw...

So... Phostose. Are you gathering data towards a specific purpose, beyond satiating your curiosity?

Bump.

Did I stay within my calorie budget today? Yes Did I exercise for at least 20 minutes? Yes Did I keep track of everything I ate and drank? Yes

I've gotta say, you people are kicking butts. Big kicks, too. I'm proud to hang with you fine folks. Insanity is still going strong. My goal today was to be in a 200 calorie deficit, because usually I'm pretty close to my total limit, and I did it! w00t! Did I stay within my calorie budget today? Did. Did I exercise for at…

And the award for most long-winded post goes to... Sorry about that! Let that be a lesson to anyone out there who doesn't proofread before they post.

I crave-cave a lot, so don't consider me an authority, but I have ideas and would be happy to share a few. If you've eliminated the trigger foods from your house, and you're likely to jump into a car to go and get your fix, try putting a message in big letters on your steering wheel that says something to discourage you…

My challenge yesterday was starting the MAX portion of Insanity one week ahead of time and to run 6 miles--which I did, but I was too tired to talk about it. Now I've talked about it. ;) Today, I ate most of my calories by mid-afternoon and didn't crack later when I felt a strong compulsion to stress eat. <=This is a big…

Hiya, Pink. I'm 29 and looking to lose 15 lbs. I'll add you, and I we can fight the good fight together. If you want to know anything about MFP, or the motivational tools available to you through the site, I can give you a little guidance. Also, as someone looking for more of a community, you might be interested in the…

November 10th, was my adjusted calorie day for splurging, and I very much enjoyed it. I was away from my computer all day and out "On the town" with friends, so I had to write everything down and track it today. I appreciate the opportunity to go all out for a day. Usually, the danger is that I go all out every day after…

Today was pretty stressful. I managed to stay within my calorie budget, but it was more of a struggle than I'd anticipated. Tomorrow, I set my calorie goal for a pretty high number. I need one of those days every week or two. I'll reset it tomorrow night after I check in . Did I stay within my calorie budget today? Yes Did…
