I periodically clean out my "friends" list ... you know, to trim the fat. Too soon? :laugh: Anyhow, if any of the people on my FL have been inactive for 2 weeks or more and haven't provided a reason for their extended absence beforehand (e.g., "I'm going on holiday, so I might not be around very much"), then I nix them. I…

'The Bacon Suspects' 'A Nightmare on Bacon Street' 'Bacon the 13th' 'Full Bacon Jacket' 'The Texas Bacon Massacre' 'Cabin Bacon' 'Office Bacon' 'Bacon of the Titans' 'Kramer vs. Bacon' 'Shaun of the Bacon' 'Bacon Fuzz'

That's an amazing story, Brian. Way to go! You're living proof that anyone can move forward in the right direction so long as they are in the proper mindset, have the dedication, and possess the will. Thanks very much for sharing!

This whole flirted with / being hit on thing? Yeah ... I've heard about it, but it doesn't happen to me, so I'm out.

I actually workout at home, by myself, but I've been known to talk **** here and there .... to myself. It's all in good fun. :happy:

Erm ... I'm pretty sure I wasn't making any gross sweeping generalizations. In fact, I'm fairly confident that I made the following disclaimer to cover my *kitten*: "here's my opinion, which is based solely upon my own personal experience"; additionally, I thought I used "I" and "my" consistently throughout my post with…

Of course, the reason for your coming back is unfortunate (i.e., lack of weight loss), it's great that you joined up again and are heading down the right track. If you need motivation or accountability buddies, feel free to add me.

I've been diagnosed with BPD (Borderline Personality Disorder) and MDD (Major Depressive Disorder) and here's my opinion, which is based solely upon my own personal experience: Assuming I can muster up the energy to actually exercise, the flood of endorphins does in fact help to alleviate -- or at least take the edge off…

Erm .... no, too young.

Sure, why not?

I'm not on your FL either, but damnit ... whiskey! In for the shots.

Have you tried Skinny Cow's fudge bars? *om, nom, nom*

*raises hand* Yes, I live in Hades (a.k.a., Tucson).

I may not be very active in the forums, but I'm here and I log daily, so feel free to add me if'n you want.

Thinking back, I now realize that the majority of women I've gone out with have been older than me by 1 or 2 years up to about 10 or 12 years. I think the only one who wasn't older than me was my ex-wife, who was only younger than me by 1 year. I never consciously sought out older women, that just seems to be how it's…

Right? I know that there must seriously be something in the water where I work because there are pregnant women walking about all over the place who are on the verge of popping, women who have recently had kids (within the last couple to few months), or women who go on and on about having kids. And it's not just the women…

<- Metal-head right here. I listen to several different kinds of music, but metal is ALWAYS in the rotation: Pantera, Slayer, Death, Venom, Deicide, Cannibal Corpse, Job for a Cowboy, Slayer, Metallica, Megadeth, Obituary, Sepultura, Slipknot, and Lamb of God (for a few).

For me, if I'm riding the stationary bike, I like to stick to watching TV or catching up with my Netflix queue. If I'm strength training though, it's all about the music and I always go with bands such as: Pantera, Megadeth, Metallica, Dead Kennedys, DRI, Circle Jerks, Minor Threat, Fear, Bad Religion, Austrian Death…

Exactly. It's bizarre. I'm kind of beginning to think there are some miniature troublemakers going through my closet every night to swap my existing clothes out for larger sized ones. :laugh: *grumble*

In all honesty, I'm approximately 34# down and I STILL do not see a difference in the mirror or in pictures. I DO see it* and feel it in the way my clothes fit, though. I would of course like to be able to see the changes in the mirror and in pictures, but I'm good (at the moment) with seeing it* and feeling it in the way…

If, in a parallel universe, the person above sent me an FR ... yeah, I would accept it. I mean, she's wearing a freaking Heisenberg shirt. C'mon, now!

@s_yeatts "Hello, nurse!" was a popular catcall used during the heyday of vaudeville. It was also a running gag on 'Animaniacs'. Oh, nevermind. How the hell do I get out of this thread? *finds door and flees quickly to the sound of applause*

Helloooo, nurse!

I'm pretty much just waiting to be the last guy on Earth with the last girl on Earth so I actually have a chance to even consider this topic. :)

*le sigh* It's going on about 4.5 years now. So erm, yeah ... I pretty much got this being single gig down pat.

It looks like everyone else went the literal route with their answers, so let me go in a slightly different direction: Don't lose the forest for the trees. Seriously, I've seen so many people lose sight of the big picture because they were so focused and caught up in the minute details, they eventually just gave up…
