I met her in Denver last year while I was there for business. I didn't know that comic-con was going on in town. A friend of mine bought her a drink at a hotel bar not knowing who she was. I came up a little while later and he introduced me to his new friend Denise. I took one look and went "Oh my god, Lt. Yar!" We sat and…

I rearranged my office so that if my boss walked by he couldn't see that I was catching up on 12 Monkeys instead of working.

I really enjoyed it. I thought it might have dragged out a little in the middle though. If think it could have been better at maybe 6 episodes instead of 8. I hope they bring it back. I really like the whole story arc over a shortened season format. Especially as a filler while Agents of SHIELD is on hiatus.

Book 2 of The 100 series called Day 21. I'm also making my way through the Hellraiser collections. I'm on Vol 4 right now.

I used to be a "Start Monday" kind of guy. I must have started on dozens of Mondays and it never took. That mythical Monday where I would be serious about getting in shape was always just out there somewhere. Finally something happened and I took a stand and just went for it. Now its been a year and I'm down over 100lbs…

Just got this Kona Dew+ yesterday. I'm very excited, I've been riding a department store bike that's been falling apart for over a year. I plan to put a lot of miles on this one.

I had my office get me a tablet so I could leave my laptop at the office. Now I carry my clothes and tablet in a backpack as I ride.

Did you do your flint hills ride? How was is? I'm from Missouri but I do a lot of work in eastern Kansas (Wichita, Topeka). I thought I might bring my bike along sometime and ride some.

Once again thank you everyone for the great advice. Thought I would give an update. I fixed up my department store bike and rode it over 900 miles last year. I have decided that as reward to myself I am going to upgrade and get a new bike. I have decided on a fitness hybrid. I've narrowed it down between a Trek FX and a…

I live in the Midwest so I have never actually been on it but a friend of mine rode the Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes in Idaho. The pictures I saw were amazing. One of these days I hope to get out there and ride it. If you ever get out to Missouri, the Katy trail is an awesome ride. It's 240 miles and pretty much flat the…

Wow! Thank you everyone for the information. This has been very helpful, even though I'm such a newbie I don't really know what some of this stuff is that your guys are recommending. lol. It gives me lots to go on, and to do some research with. I went to a local bike shop yesterday and bought a new wheel for my MTB. I…

Hello Everyone, My Name is Mike. I started trying to lose weight back in Dec. I was at a little over 400lbs then. I have been doing really well and have lost about a hundred pounds so far. A few months back I dusted off my old mountain bike and decided to give it a try. I instantly fell in love with riding. I hadn't been…

Have you tried mashed cauliflower? With some salt, pepper, and a little low-fat cheddar, it's pretty good

MFP says it is about 375 calories per sandwich.

I've been making a Mushroom Sandwich lately that is just awesome. I take some sliced portabellas and fry them in a little olive oil. Just enough to coat the pieces (not deep frying). I sprinkle some steak seasoning on them while they cook. When they are just about done, I add some sliced hot cherry peppers and some lowfat…

The only thing I have completly cut out was Soda. The last time I had one was this last Superbowl weekend and I had a few Diet Dr. Peppers. I ended up gaining back 6 lbs over the weekend. Never again. Other than soda I eat whatever I want. I just make sure not to overeat it. Things that are really high in calories such as…

I'm having a similar issue right now. I have to have clothes for work but nothing is fitting right now. I'm determined to keep up my fitness routine so I know if I go buy something it will only a short while that I will be able to wear it. I can't afford to do that every few weeks. I've decided to buy a few new things like…

Same here. It's 11:30 and I told myself I'd be in bed an hour ago. I just wanted to check something real fast on MFP first. lol

I have been doing very well with my progress, thank you guys for all the support. It really means a lot. I want to add two more short term goals to the big ones I listed earlier. These two were pipedreams just a few months back but now I think I can actually achieve them. 1. I have a scheduled doctor's checkup on July 23.…

My son was eating the most delicious looking pepperoni pizza tonight. They all look like the most delicious looking pizzas, its the one thing I'm having the most trouble with not eating. But I can't because I just don't trust myself yet to eat just one or two slices. Tried that a few weeks ago while traveling and ended up…

Today I did something that in the past I would have never done. It seems like every time in the past that I have tried to change my lifestyle and loose weight, around once a week or so I will just get incredibly hungry throughout the day. It is no different this time around. Normally on days like these I would binge eat…

Here is a recipie I like to eat when I just have to have pasta. I'm sure a lot of you get those cravings too. I use Barilla-Plus Pene. Because it's pasta, it does have some carbs but it is made with lentils, chickpeas, and egg whites so it is also pretty high in protein as well. I boil the pasta to al dente. Strain and…

Cauliflower Crust Pizza I found this recipe from the group " Recipe Swap" here on MFP. I made this last night and it was so good. I used a low-fat mozzarella and I put the crusts in the freezer few about 10 minutes to help them firm up before cooking them. I made 2 of them (1 for me , 1 for my wife) and cooked one on…

I made this tonight, turned out awesome. I will probably make pizza this way from now on.

I have several goals I'm hoping to reach. Over the last 10 years or so I have completely let myself go to the point that in November I topped out at 405lbs. Thats when I said enough is enough. I have been hitting the gym at least 30 minutes a day 5 to 6 times a week and started watching my calories. I got the MFP app on my…

I'd like to be added. I'm new here, very overweight and realizing I could use a little support. I'm pretty driven so far, this time, but have a history of getting frustrated and resorting back to my old ways. I would love to meet some people online who may be able to keep pushing me to stay on track.
