I won't ask. But I will ask. Are you angry at yourself? Or someone else? It's always easier when it's someone else. So anyway...whatzup girlfriend? My eleven year old son sent 125 texts in 6 days; I checked his statement online. Good thing I have unlimited texting. Just who is an eleven year old texting so much, you might…

It's a good thing I am allergic to hops, so that makes the beer thing easy, but DQ ICE CREAM CAKE? Come on! I would have caved! You are strong, whether you think so or not.

Nice kilts. No. Really...nothin' like a man in a kilt! :wink: And Gawh! Rugby is the only sport I like to watch on tele, besides Olympic swimming, of course!!

So. Glad. He. keeps his medal!!! Whew! I was listening to the radio in my car, and not even really thinking. I been shopping. I had confidence he could do it without my eyes glued to the tv, but I don't know if I can afford to not watch!!! Dang!

Oh, I totally missed this opportunity to make mj do the time warp. Shucks!

No. Can't see the JT pic and totally bummed!!

Yah, you found my bad side! You knew I had to have one. I work with convicted youth felons, for goodness sake! I can't be THAT naive!!

Oh wait. 6'6", immense wingspan, so yea, I'm pretty sure you can rock it. Will you be my Dr. Frank-N-Furter?:laugh: In case you don't know: http://www.imdb.com/character/ch0010150/bio

Only if you can rock that tutu for the whole show do you get to wear that tiara. You think you can rock it?

Wow. I just woke up and checked my topics, and mjfer123, you killed it. I dunno how, but you did. Any way, sorry. No speedo (or the jammers, the other suits), no go!! Gotta have that swimmer's body. I have been swimming competitively since I was 3 (yes, 3), and there is nothing like a hug from a swimmer!! :blushing:

Hey, you know what they say about guys with big feet? They gotta buy big shoes!!!:wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :wink: :blushing:

Wooww. I did notice that about his suit. Sigh. He's one hunky hunk. I love swimmers....

Here I sit, at the 162-4 plateau, and I have been here for two months. I think I would cry if I had to be here for two years. I am so encouraged, though, that you did break it. I have only 10 or so pounds left, and my goal is really to just keep exercising and eating the right foods, but it is soo hard to not think those…

Don't panic before you need to. Stress definitely is not a good thing for health and weight loss, so don't worry. Or, worry, but realize it doesn't do any good since you really don't know what to worry about yet. Be your own advocate, and take a friend or family member with you if you need the support. Keep exercising…

I think it has to do with blood sugar levels, and when you eat late, your blood sugar levels don't have time to recover before the a.m. I don't know, could be I am TOTALLY wrong. The same thing happens to me though. If I don't eat after 7, I am hungry but not starving in the morning. If I eat at night, I wake up with…

Man Alert!! Man Alert!! Yea!! Welcome!!

I'm impressed:happy: !! I am just this week beginning to run, and it is kicking MY *kitten*. I made my 11 year old son run with me, and he is just as winded as I am. Maybe in SIX MONTHS (!!) I can say I am running three miles with hills. You GO, GIRL. Feel strong!

It is time to rewrite your story. I did this. It was nearly 10 years ago when it was final. Good luck to you. Make it how you want it and do not compromise.

I was just telling a co-worker of mine I want to do a triathlon before I am 50. I have a few years to get in shape, I guess! (well, more like 12, hehe) Start small, and build up! Good job to your uncle. He's an inspiration.

Good luck. With MFP and my gym time, I lost 30 pounds in around three months. I still have twenty to go. If you have any questions, just ask. I am still sort of a newbie too. (My youngest is 5 1/2, so I get the pre-baby thing, Oh I really do!)

Wow! That really is amazing. I really do think that bike builder was a hero. And I really feel like my goal is insignificant and I am a wimp for complaining.

I think the "official" day was the 18th. But I like to push the window of opportunity, and am posting my last weight on the 30th!

Well, well, well. Guess what I did today? I finished my ballet squats with 12 pound dumbbells in each hand and then did lunges with 5 pound weights in each hand. Three SETS!! One goal demolished!

Starting Weight: 192 One Week Ago: 166 This Week: 164 NEW GOAL: 160 by July 30 Four to go in 17 days. I CAN DO IT!!

Kraft Free Thousand Island. It's good. We eat it. Check it on the food database. It's there.

I had the kettlecorn (it was butter rum flavor, for goodness sakes!) AND half a marionberry turnover this morning at the grower's market. Would have gone for half a tamale, but the line was too long (thank goodness!!). Now I am just planning the rest of my meals as conservative, and when I go to the gym I will be sure to…

I ate half a burger and half an order of fries from one of our BEST local burger places, and for two days my stomach ached off and on. Not so sure why the ache, but I am not so interested in those burgers now.

here I am for you to lean upon. I started higher than your highest, and I too am 5' 7" (okay, okay, 5' 6 1/2" geez!). I love the accountability, and learning what is worth how many calories. Good luck. And we are here for questions, and support! G

Banks, I agree. I even can feel the differences in me from day to day. One day I feel like the Bionic Woman, and some days I feel like the gum on the bottom of someone's shoe. But, Elizabeth uses it to torture herself. I am also not sure what qualifies as a serious athlete. I work out more than six hours a week,…

Good job! I did that the other night with the new Rolling Stone Mag. I was so NOT feeling' it, and I got on the elliptical, started reading, and pretty soon, I looked down and went, "holy cow! 500 calories!!" It feels so good when you get it done, even though you weren't feelin' it when you started. Hug yourself! You did…
