  • Perhaps we should implement a government enforced policy that anyone who supports taking someone's children away by force for any reason whatsoever should have their children taken away from them?
  • I'm not on the bandwagon of folks telling you to walk away from your mariage based on your OP. There is more to be done before getting to that point IMHO. This book is almost tailor made to address the situation you describe and it walks you through what I think is the right way to come to the decision you are about to…
  • Yes!^^ Do squats all the way down. Toe-out with wide stance is good. Keep that up and you will get the best results in the least time on your legs and thighs compared to anything else IMHO.
  • I got a Fitbit Force for Christmas. The clasp doesn't really work well and it kept popping off my arm a couple times a week. Eventually it popped off when I didn't notice it and I didn't realize it was gone until mid afternoon. It's lost and I don't plan to replace it.
  • OP: Everybody has a right to judge you on anything you offer up as public information. If you post something on line publicly, what gives you the right to expect/demand not to be judged? Besides, I don't do it because I just think sharing your diary is too much a part of the "look at me!" culture these days. If someone is…

  • Perfect way to look at it ^^. If you think he is being judgemental by telling you not to get one, perhaps you are being just as judgemental by being angry at him for telling you how he feels about it. If you don't care what your husband thinks about your body, then take everyone's advice who has effectively said "you go…

  • My FITBIT Force fell off my wrist AGAIN today but this time I didn't feel it fall off. Very bad wristband clasp design so now I'm out the $129 it cost. Definately not buying another if this one is never found.

  • In for the thread. I'm facing the same concerns. Trying to lose body fat while retaining max muscle. It's a constant mental connundrum to decide between keeping useful calories (protein) in my diet and workout focused on weights, vs trying to speed the fat loss with a larger calorie defecit and more cardio. Haven't figured…
  • How would you feel if your boss determined that your post just now represented Hatred and Intolerance of Phil Robertson and fired you from your job? But I agree with you... if your boss decided to do that, he would be within his rights
  • For Women. Would you rather DO Chris Hemsworth, or a minimum wage fry cook who looks exactly like Chris Hemsworth? For Men. Would you rather DO Scarlet Johansson, or a minimum wage waitress who looks exactly like Scarlet Johansson?
  • It is wonderful that you have the freedom to choose professionals of your own gender. I feel like if I asked to have a doctor of my own gender or to have my kids moved into a class with a male teacher that I would be labeld as a misogynist and accused of sexual discrimination.
  • ^^ Yes! Smith Machine will allow you to get used to bad form and neglect the muscles you need to stabilize yourself. You can tell ClassickQC is a reliable source for good squatting advice cause the evidence is in her profile pic :wink: :love:
  • If you think men shouldn't swim in speedo's, then you should have no problem with men saying you shouldn't be at the gym doing pilates or yoga in anything but full sweats. Board Shorts? That would add about 10 seconds to my 100m time! I would get about 75% of the workout in the same amount of time. If it makes you feel…
  • Thanks to everyone here for taking the time to post your experiences. We were about to get my son the Nike Fuelband, but I figured I would check to see what the MFP community had to say first. He's getting a Fitbit Force for Christmas instead!
  • I swam competitively Division I College swimming. We didn't call it Total Immersion back then, but it was part of the whole package. Some of the drills fully drove you to this style. If you practice trying to reduce your number of strokes per lap, you naturally develop these techniques. Some of the biggest gain is "off the…
  • Did you ever bang an actual relative when you were similarly P L A S T E R E D? Cause that would really support your argument that you see him like a brother.
  • Absolutely^^ He's just following up on what he sees as a few clear signals of interest. If as you say, he "makes your skin crawl", then I'm really wondering why you stopped by at his house for a drink of water and to watch a show. That's certainly not a move that telegraphs "I think you are a creep." I don't think he makes…
  • And if your ear itches then someone is talking about you!
  • This is actually not true. Caffeine does have a slight diuretic effect, but not enough to off set the amount of actual water contained in the cup of coffee. The net effect of drinking coffee is a hydrating effect, not dehydration. Coffee hydrates about 80% as well as water.
  • Don't be afraid to be "selfish." Embrace it. If he cooks a meal that you doesn't fit your plan, don't eat it. Don't bother arguing about it. He will probably be angry that, in his mind, he went out of his way to do something nice for you and you don't appreciate it. But leaving him to figure out what to do with the extra…
  • If someone gets an unwanted friend request that makes them a victim? Let's all be victims! :drinker: It's people like you that equate someone sending an unwanted friend request to rape, then accuse others of "victim bashing" who "make you nervous" by defending someone who would commit such a horrible crime. No wonder you…
  • I'd keep doing exactly what you are doing. It try every day too exceed my protein goal while keeping the carbs and total calories under the daily goal. In my humble opinion, maximizing protein within the limits of the overall calorie goal is a great idea - especially if you include strength training in your exercise plan.
