  • Obviously subject to change, but at Blizzcon Ghostcrawler made a reference to that fact that the TOTAL character limit wouldn't be lifted (I think it's 50 per account?), but that they were "considering" lifting the per server (10) limit for MoP.
  • I've at least attempted leveling one of everything - my rogues (there have been 4 attempts now) never make it out of their 20s. Maybe my current goblin will break the trend. Maybe. I dunno...I understand what I'm supposed to do...it just...yeah LOL! Maybe I'm just not meant to be a rogue - which is weird, because I love my…
  • WoWer here! Just got back from cosplaying both days at Blizzcon actually! XD Lesse - aside from numerous under 85 alts... Belf Holy Pally, Forsaken Arm/Prot Warrior, Forsaken Shadow Priest, Belf Unholy Death Knight. Currently rising in the ranks, Troll Restro/Boomy Drood, Forsaken Arcane Mage and Goblin Combat Rogue. Yes,…

  • We've been playing a lot of oblivion around here too! :D I went ahead and ordered the hubster the collector's edition. He is always so great about me getting the CE's of all of the Blizzard games, I figure it's his turn! :D Amazon release date delivery baby!
  • I'm interested that you say this. I eat there a couple of times a month and never have trouble finding something that I can alter to fit my calories for the day. Two examples - as ordered from the menu, the Teriyaki Chicken Sandwich comes in at 900 calories. But, i order mine on wheat, no cheese and no mayo (there's…
  • My husband does the builder bars. He likes them well enough. I personally don't think the 20g protein is a good enough trade off for the 20g of sugar. I should add that I can have one of my protein shakes for less sugar, more protein and fewer calories. Your mileage my vary.
  • While I understand what you're saying - the second part of your equation doesn't work that way in my body. Whether or not it's water retention, I don't know, but my body never actually adjusts to the activity level and drops weight when I'm exercising every day. I've done this for extensive periods of time, and I just…
  • Everyone is different - but for me - I don't lose weight when I exercise. It's likely that I don't eat back enough of my calories, but I refuse to force myself to eat. While my consumption does pop up a hundred or so calories a day when I'm exercising, it's not enough. I've learned over the years to go with a month of…
  • Congratulations! I went through this a few weeks ago when I found a HUGE plastic box of "skinny" clothes in the garage. I had thought that I had gotten rid of them when I gave my MiL a bunch of clothes for a yard sale a few years ago. To my total delight, some of my favorite clothes (including shorts, just in time for the…
  • My boxer is 8 months old now and now that the weather has decided to cooperate, we're working on the C25K program together. He loooooves our walks/jogs. On long walks though he tends to get to about the 3 mile mark and want an extended rest, but overall, he's doing really well!
  • We did the live stream in '09 and LOVED it. It made us really want to be there. It's our one big trip of the year. I'll be in the costume contest again this year (best thing EVER last year!!) :) It's just fun to participate, even if it is from home!

  • Last year there were 5 of us who tried to queue (this was day 2 of sales, we missed day one!). I was the only one in our group to get in the queue. It's definitely about being prepared. Be at your computer early, don't have anything else open, and F5 away. (Here's the F5 page in case you haven't seen it:…

  • I'll be there!! I have enough friends in the community that even if I don't down the queue boss myself, I'll have a ticket with my name on it. <3 my friends. I'll tell you, BC was a HUGE motivation for me last year and I lost 20 pounds from June to the end of October. It can TOTALLY be done if you're dedicated to it.…

  • Personally, I think it's an important part. It's not an easy work out, for sure. I don't really consider Yoga X my rest/relaxing day LOL. Yoga is super important for working the muscles, but also stretching and lengthening them. Try to stay with it. The moves will come to you. The first 45 minutes is quite repetitive, in…
  • Hi all! 5'4" and 29 here! I started working on my weight last year in June. At the time I was at my all time high of 153 and very unhappy with myself. By October, I had myself down to 132. I slacked off a bit from November 2010 to February of 2011 and popped up about 4 pounds. So this March, I got my act together and…
  • My go to at Applebee's is the Grilled Dijon Chicken & Portobellos (served with steamed veggies and potatoes). The sodium is a little high, but it's still a decent choice. Make a point to drink several glasses of water with dinner to help counter act it. It's quite yummy actually!
  • My current main is a Belf Pally (holy!). Also have a Forsaken Shadow Priest, a Forsake Warrior and a Belf DK. On the alli side I have a Draenei Pally (also holy) and a Nelf Druid (kitty).
  • FOR THE HORDE!
  • After hating it for my entire childhood/adolescence/adulthood...at 29 I've rediscovered broccoli. My husband thinks it's weird, but broccoli is my new obsession. LOVE!!!
  • bump! lots of good ideas here!
  • I'm just starting phase 2 of lean. P90X is NOT a weight loss system. You're far more likely to lose inches than you are to lose weight - but that's not a BAD thing. In my first 30 days I only lost 4 pounds, but I also lost a total of 4 inches as well. The system is about getting in shape and being healthy, not losing…

  • 5'4" 128 lbs XS/S shirts, size 1 or 2 in misses, anywhere from 3 to 7 in juniors.
  • It kinda depends really. A lot of people work out their weekly intake and weekly deficit. In a case like that, deficits from one day balance out overages from another. Ultimately, your body doesn't say "Oh, it's midnight, I need to start over" the way that your diary on MFP does. Everything balances out in the end. If you…
  • Is turkey mince what we in the states would call ground turkey? Like ground beef (hamburger), only turkey? These two recipes are my faves for ground turkey: http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/04/turkey-and-black-bean-enchiladas.html http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/08/greek-turkey-meatballs.html (with the skinny tzatziki…
  • As a knitter (married, sorry!!) I have to wonder if you know the amount of time and money it would take someone to knit you a nice sweater. Besides all of that, all knitters are taught NOT to knit for our boyfriends (especially sweaters!) because of the boyfriend curse. (In case you don't catch the sarcasm, the myth is…
  • If it were me, since this dinner/meet-up only happens once a month - I wouldn't worry so much about that meal. We all need a little indulgence now and again. If you feel like you could handle a "freebie" or "cheat" meal without going off the wagon, why not? I really love mexican food. So, when my best friend comes over and…
  • This has been my go to blog lately: http://www.skinnytaste.com/ The husband and I have tried 4 or 5 recipes and they've all been fantastic. Our current faves are her greek turkey meatballs (http://www.skinnytaste.com/2010/08/greek-turkey-meatballs.html) with skinny tzatziki…
  • hehe I did this too. I was laid up from a small back injury and catching some kind of bug, apparently feeling very sorry for myself. Sweet hubby brought me home a fast food dinner (which I ate every bite of) then I made the mistake of watching cupcake wars. Went straight into the kitchen, made the batter and ate 1 cupcake…
  • I had one of these days this week. It can be discouraging. I went to bed, knowing that tomorrow morning, my calories would be reset and it would be a new day. We're all going to slip up every once in a while. That in no way negates all the good work you've done in the last three weeks. Let go of the guilt, it won't help…
  • Definitely indulge yourself every once in a while, otherwise, it's a diet. Denying yourself everything that might be considered "bad" isn't a long term solution. In the beginning, it's easier for almost everyone to cut those things out cold turkey, because they trigger our body's pleasure response. Once you've broken the…
