Please don't ride your bike on the sidewalk!! It isn't safe. You should be on the shoulder of the road and you should obey all traffic laws (including stopping at lights, etc.). I know it can be a little daunting at first, especially if you haven't ridden a bike in a while, but the road is where you belong. It's great that…

Amazing

I'm sorry, but after watching Rousey cry on every single episode of TUF, I freakin' can't stand her. Sighhhh

Not where I thought this thread was going to go. *sits back to give it time*

Congratulations!!! That is absolutely amazing :)

Weird trick, but the scent of vanilla has been proven to satisfy cravings. My mom carries a little satchel that smells like vanilla in her purse and swears it works! If that's too silly for you, try chewing gum or drinking tea. I have an amazing chocolate tea that I have in the mornings - it tastes exactly like hot…

I'm going to get a tattoo when I hit mine, hopefully by this summer :)

Bad personal hygiene and poor table manners. Ick!

I told my mother that I wanted to be a migrant worker (I lived in Florida and it seemed like a fun, outdoorsy job at the time). My sister wanted to be an ice cream truck driver. We were DREAMERS I am now an event planner and my sister is a lawyer. Hmm. *Edited to include update on current non-migrant worker/ice cream truck…

I use Neosporin on a daily basis with it but it hasn't really been helping :-/ I'm thinking it might be exercise related - I have a really short torso so my pants or shorts sometimes rub on it when I run. That plus the sweat and loose skin probably make for a gross pool of bacteria! I do shower right after I workout and I…

The most difficult thing for me was finding time to work out. Lunch breaks aren't an option for me, and I rarely actually made it to the gym after work because I was so exhausted that I just wanted to collapse on my couch! I finally started going to the gym in the mornings before work, which took a while to get used to but…

I'm worried that since it's irritated and gross looking it'll close up if I take it out. I want to stick it out, but getting infected probably isn't a great idea haha. I took out the bar and replaced it with a ring so that I can clean it more easily, but it's definitely still having issues.

I cut most dairy out of my diet because I have really high cholesterol. Also, dairy is like crack to me and was a big part of my weight gain!! I found a few good dairy alternatives that will satisfy a cheese/dairy craving pretty well... Go Veggie! products are my favorite. They have dairy-free shredded cheese, sliced…

I got smart after that and was sure to remove them earlier if there was any chance of canoodling. Live and learn (and then take off your Spanks!)

I once had to explain my Spanks to a guy I was hooking up with. I went out with him looking great, forgot I was wearing them to hold everything in, and then when we went to hook up for the first time HE COULDN'T GET THEM OFF! And by then I didn't want him to because I knew I'd have crazy indent lines all over my body from…

Back fat? Let's talk about back rolls! Or BACK BOOBS! Hehehe
-
I wear three sports bras when I run - it looks like I have one massive uni-boob but it holds them in place! I buy workout gear all the time because it's cute or on sale, yet end up wearing the same things over and over again because they are comfy. Sometimes I sleep in my gym attire so that when I wake up all I have to do…

Hahaha you are horrible. Also, if he then has a kid with her, her children will be both cousins and siblings?

So you potentially become your nephew's step father? I'm reminded of an old song... My little baby then became a brother-in-law to dad And so became my uncle, though it made me very sad For if he were my uncle, then that also made him brother Of the widow's grownup daughter, who was of course my step-mother

More fruits and veggies!! Eat some prunes and you'll be moving along in no time ;)

My cat resents this thread.

This is an absolutely amazing story. You look so happy (and handsome!) in your "after" photos and it's absolutely wonderful to hear about how you were able to turn your life around with nothing more than dedication. Thank you so much for sharing your story.

If you're going to try juicing, put a whole apple in anything you juice. It will provide sweetness and override the more bitter flavors. Carrots, spinach, celery, and apple is my favorite juice blend.

I'm just amused by the Three Musketeers candy bar ad on this page. Heh.

Heat and stretching are helpful. If you have chronic upper back pain like I do, I recommend getting one of these bad boys: It's called a Bed of Nails pillow and has really helped me. You lay on a flat surface with it under your neck - it works kind of like acupuncture by increasing blood flow to the area. Search Bed of…

I used to be severely hypoglycemic. If I was getting close to a crash, I'd start getting EXTREMELY irritable. And it's funny because when I got like that, I didn't want to eat. I'd have to force myself to do it. What worked best for me was having a schedule and sticking to it. I'd eat a snack between meals at the exact…

In high school I had a friend who was born in India and had a very traditional Indian family. He invited me to a graduation party, which he said was going to be a big group of friends and really casual. Being the awesome person that I am, I show up in jeans, flip flops, and a HOOTERS t shirt. His ENTIRE family was there in…
