Thanks, someone else told me surf wax would work. Crazy stuff, but I guess getting them pierced now is out :)

I don't really have rest days and It has worked out okay. I don't do the same thing every day and some days I just play basketball with my son or ride my recumbent bike for 20 minutes. I am not sure anything is wrong with being active every day. Weights every day is pretty bad, and everyone now and then my body or my…

Damn, wrong forum again.

This is a well written post that is not as preachy and condescending as half of what I read here, or if it is, I just liked it. Thanks!

When I partook of smoking in the past it never made me gain weight, it did however, make at least 20 Reeses Peanut Butter cups a night and that in turn made me gain weight.

I cut my drinking to one day a week and mainly Vodka and diet tonic or Michelob Ultra, close to the Bud Select and tastes better IMHO. I usually drink on Fri or Sat and what I have done is track my calories and add that to the next day's normal workout. 5 or 6 drinks makes for some serious punishment the next day. I know…

I travel a lot for business and I try to eat at least one thing I really want each day. I also supplement by as much walking and of course the hotel fitness centers which can be a mixed bag. I am usually somewhere that I don't know well though, so walking is huge.

They make little hand shakers that do not require a power blender, this might work.

Yeah, this happened to me last week but it wasn't pictures. I had just hit 35 lbs lost since joining MFP and over 45 lbs lost overall and we had a health screening at work. They measured my waist line and did it from the belly button around for a 46" measurement. It really had me ready to go eat an entire cake and chase it…

I never eat before a morning workout, unless I go later on the weekends. I got at 5:30-5:45 on weekdays and more like 10AM on weekends.

Please feel free to add me as well.

I drink it either straight black or with Irish whiskey.

I would just have been for dinner and log it, but that is just me. You can always pick something close from a similar menu, when in doubt I estimate over or add quick calories.

I've had this happen, but I would rather have their derision from being in shape instead of their ridicule for being fat.

I am fat because when I was married I was determined to eat myself to "till death do us part." It started with wedding cake and sort of never stopped.

Hi again and good luck!

Okay, please ignore the last week, I was traveling and then feeling crappy, but before that I was usually in that range.

I am generally in that range, so feel free.

I have a great recipe that includes Diet Coke. I call it the Self Denial Coke Float • 2 scoops Blue Bell Vanilla Ice-Cream • 8 OZ Diet Coke • Top with Reddi-Wip • Drizzle with Hershey Syrup

No problem, just noticed we are in the same town. Hopefully the lying salesman was not one of my old buddies. What I can tell you is that being in sales for 15 years is that we usually think we know what we are talking about, but that is not always the case. Also, with mattresses, you really cannot tell unless you sleep on…

I used to work in mattress sales (don't hate me for it) and even a Sealy pillowtop can be hard on the side and hips and the better the mattress, the worse the hardness unless it has just a really thick topper. Pressure points can be a tough one and I am just finding mine again. You can add a mattress topper and this should…

I guess I am curious too, and wait, the whole beer point is interesting. So can you not drink beer on a paleo diet either? I guess you couldn't eh? Ugh, that will kill it for me.

I quit almost a month ago and commutes are the wost time for me. I drive 45-60 minutes each way to work and back every day. I want cigarettes still so badly on those days, but gum and lollipops are helping. I have lost weight since quitting, mostly because I can work out longer and harder I think.

- Haha, funniest thing I have seen all day!

Black coffee or a Caffè Americano. I keep it simple.

My order of preference real pork bacon > virtual bacon > shoe leather > turkey bacon > old tires > tofu bacon > getting stabbed in the eye with a pair of scissors. I might even reverse the last two in order. I also like bacon crumbles on vanilla ice cream. This is the eighth deadly sin.

I know that standing desks do a good bit for you as well. http://blogs.hbr.org/your-health-at-work/2010/08/the-many-benefits-of-standing.html

I am part of the Curves Party. Especially that curve between the waste and hips. Love that one.

Well, weirdest for me is not food, but exercise related. I finally started running and am dropping weight and am dealing with the odd for a male problem of nipple chafing from running. So now to counteract this I am wearing bandaids on my nipples to the gym. Very odd if you ask me.

Great job craft338. Still right behind you and will hit 3 weeks tomorrow!
