My dad gets teary eyed when he watches Secretariat hahaha :laugh:

Just wanted to confirm the glycogen stores thing. For a while, I used to weigh myself daily. As soon as I ate 1600 calories instead of the 1200 I'd been eating, the next morning the scale shifted a pound. I worried that if I continued eating 1600 calories every day, the scale would continue to shift a pound every single…

Hey! Yes, I'm with ya on not feeling the whole ice cream idea as much now that it's getting colder! Some warm snacks I eat: - Swiss Miss Diet Hot Cocoa (25 cals) - Microwaved Apple w/ a dash of cinnamon (tastes like apple pie minus the crust!) - Bowl of Oatmeal (To make this savory you can add some brown sugar, berries,…

Haha I know, right?! :drinker:

Ah yes! I can check out my local TJ Maxx and see if I find anything! Thanks for the idea. :smile:

^ Aww they drag their poor children into it? Yeah, you're probably right. That's craziness! :laugh:

These sound great! I will definitely try them out. Thanks for sharing! :happy:

I love your haircut! Bangs look really good on you. :)

Your haircut makes you look nice and clean!

Apparently no one else coupons. :ohwell:

SANTA BABY IS THE WORST!!!!!!! :explode: The Little Drummer Boy sometimes gets to me, too.

Bump! Umm so I hardly coupon, but I figured I'd respond anyway. I'm a member of this coupon website called coupons.com and once a month or so go on it and print out some coupons for things like $2 off Chex cereal, $1 off a four pack of yogurts etc. I don't do it too often, since when I do, I just find that it's too much…

Running with high heels on works your calves really well and is better than running with sneakers. :glasses: And make sure you drink at least three glasses of water before going on your run so you don't get dehydrated.

I think the term "regular" can be a bit degrading to those who are skinny. They should've just titled it overweight women/obese women in lingerie. Being obese might be common in the US these days, but it's not what we want to promote as being regular IMO. My main opinion is that I'd like to see regular people at healthier…

A heated swimming pool or a hot tub. I love just floating around; it's so relaxing. :happy:

No problem! Yup, it definitely does, and is actually a common problem. You weigh more after exercising because there's fluid retention to help your body recover from vigorous activity. If you read number two on this website it explains it a little better.…

I definitely don't think it's because you're eating too much. Okay, so some possibilities: -Did you have a harsh workout yesterday? Even if you didn't have a lot of sodium our muscles retain water to recover after working hard. - How much did you gain? If not too much, perhaps you just need to go to the bathroom, if you…

I'm a huge advocate for Insanity. I completed the 60 day challenge and loved it! Shaun T motivates you so much and I just find the workouts a lot of fun. So Insanity is basically all cardio with strength training built into each cardio workout, whereas with P90X some days are cardio/plyometrics and others are just like…

But, I thought a BMI from 18.5-25 was considered healthy? WTF if a woman has a BMI of like 24.5 they go from being in the healthy range to obese range? That's ridiculous. :explode: :angry:

Woah woah woah, the majority of women workout without wearing underwear? Seriously? I'm a woman and I was never aware that people do this. :laugh: Not judging, I simply didn't know it was a thing and have never thought to go without underwear while exercising haha

Weight loss/fitness crap. Shaun T's Focus T25, a jump rope, free weights, heart rate monitor. :tongue:

I don't even have time to read all the responses, but just in response to the title of this thread... Don't take it personally- being bashed for eating clean. No matter what you do on this website, there are trolls that are going to have something to say about it. If you promoted eating all junk food, trolls. All things in…

No way!! I used to just use a notebook and write things down on my own. The only reason I use this website is for convenience. And the support is wonderful, but I'm sure I could find support elsewhere.

Bump! This is an interesting topic and I'd love to see some responses from other parents.

Hey! So I have no problem with protein bars; I think they're delicious and they help me reach my protein goal. :smile: I'm a vegetarian so I don't eat any meat, so I have to find other sources of protein. I prefer to have protein bars as snacks or along with a lot of fruit and veggies at lunch. On their own they don't fill…

Hey there! I log daily and generally stay under my calorie goal, post fairly often, and make sure to comment and keep my friends motivated and supported every day! I keep my friends list small so I can give all my friends my attention and not leave some just hanging. Anyway, feel free to friend me. :smile:
