My smartphone has greatly improved my relationship with my boyfriend. When I get tried of him, I just plug in my headphones and tune him out! Our fights have decreased to zero! :drinker: Ok, joking aside, this: Is wild! I would kick him out of bed so fast!

WOW Grreat job!

Ahh, you look so great! Amazing job!

Yes and no. I was always big since the day we started dating, but he really liked my personality (when I lose this weight, I never want to have to hear how 'great my personality is' again!) and so we got serious. However, I know I'm not really his 'type'. I know he'd be much happier with my body if I lost all this weight…

This is actually what I was taught while I was in nursing school too, but I don't follow it myself. It's also important to note that "8 glasses a day" is a guideline and every individual is different. Fruits and veggies may be enough for a 120 pound woman who is in A/C and isn't working hard, but on hot days where you are…

Grilled alligator tail... it was kinda good :)

Bump, thanks for the good advice ladies :)

Omg!!! Stuck at work so I can't partake but BUMPING or later like whoa, because I am a gif addict!!!

"Shake it Out" by Florence and the Machine. Such a great song and it really encompasses the entire reason I'm working out. :) "It's hard to dance with the devil on your back, so shake him off"

Yes... just yes. I am looking through these replies in shock because for so long I thought I was the only one.

How are we tracking? Was there someone we were sending emails to? So excited!

Hahahahaha This made me laugh so hard! Thank you !

I, too, am a fast eater. I'm a nurse, so even on my lunch breaks, there's a chance I could be called away! I inhale my lunch before it has even had time to cool off sometimes, because I HATE to have to leave my lunch half-eaten to go back to work! Unfortunately, this habit also follows me home. When my boyfriend and I eat…

This Alot is made of chicken! Like you, I eat mostly chicken and have run into the same problems. I agree with the sentiment about a crockpot! I got one a bit ago and it was one of the best investments I've made into my kitchen so far (next to my rice steamer). Also, I also cut it up and make meals with it. Spaghetti,…

I've tried the meal replacement shakes so many times, Slim Fast, Special K, Herbalife, even homemade, and they always worked great for a few weeks until I couldn't stand the feeling of that texture anymore. I missed my food! So now I just make a smoothie if I'm in a hurry and can't get a real meal in, or for post-workout.…

Victoria's Secret! Other than that, I don't have a particular store I'm looking forward too. I mostly can't wait to walk into ANY store and know I'm going to fit into the stuff there. :)

Count me in!!! I did 20 today before work so I'm already on track! :D

I've downloaded but haven't started it yet, though I have been doing some of my own intervals as far as running until I'm exhausted, cooling off, and then starting over until 30 minutes have passed. Anyone is welcome to friend me, we can do this together!!! How cool would it be to run a 5k as an MFP group one day!?

Two eggs over easy on a slice of honey wheat toast and strawberries! Big glass of chocolate almond milk to drink. Yum. :)

The irony in this entire post is so thick I could cut it. Thank you so much for indirectly making my point!

Right, so gay people shouldn't have children because THAT kid was raised that it was ok to bully gay people. That's stupid logic. 60 years ago, a black kid would have been picked on in school, too. How did we remedy that? Did we just stop sending black children to school? NO, the norms of society changed. If we change the…

Back in the day, a family was expected to have a man and a woman so that the 'gender roles' could be assigned. Guess what: we don't have traditional gender roles anymore! Women are not expected to sit at home and quilt blankets and have supper on the table when their men come home, and men aren't expected to be the only…

I was going to stay out of this topic because I accept that you just cannot change a persons mind, especially on a forum, but this comment made my knee jerk so hard I practically gave myself a black eye. There is NO EVIDENCE whatsoever to prove that a child of a gay couple is more susceptible to abuse than a child of a…

GREAT POST!!! Thank you so much!

:love: :flowerforyou:

Also bumping :)

Thanks so much for this info!!! I have ALWAYS had a hard time finding sports bras that can support me. I'll look into these! Also: lol @ ****'s Sporting Goods being censored!

I'm a big girl and my twins are fairly large, so I usually wear a regular bra with a sports bra over top, and then some sort of Lycra top or a t-shirt... it's a lot of layers but I found that I uh, bounce around too much otherwise and it just gets really uncomfortable. :( As for pants, whatever is light and cool, usually…

I love gingers! I'm a brunette but all my life I coveted Ariel's gorgeous red mane. :( /envy

Great job! Agreed with the above poster who said body composition is more important than weight. As long as your body fat % is going down and your lean mass is going up, it's a win!
