Guess the expensive part kind of rules out the Fitbit depending on your budget. Being US military station in the UK I keep forgetting how much more expensive things tend to be on the UK economy compared to US prices.

Get a Fitbit Charge HR. It has a fairly accurate heart rate monitor that uses green LED's to help the sensor see your capillaries. You basically hold the button when you want to start exercise and hold it again to end. You can then sync it with a PC or smartphone and it'll give you stats. I wear mine all day and can even…

Pseudo unrelated but... Ever notice when a guy accuses a woman of cheating he has trust issues, but when a woman accuses a man of cheating she's a psycho. With that said... just flip it all calm like on him and ask him if he's cheated on you and that's why he's got issues. If he says no then reassure him you love him and…

My issue here is he ALREADY has trust issues. Unless you've given him any reason not to trust you this is pretty much uncalled for. No relationship can survive long without trust and this is a really poor start imo.

Step 1. Deny him sex until you are in the shape you want to be in because getting pregnant sucks for weight gain and I'm glad I'm a guy. Step 2. Get in the shape you want to be in. Step 3. Deny him sex after you are in the shape you want to be in because he couldn't love you for who you were before. :devil:

Do they make a cuddle version?

Wow! That's fantastic. Now you'll get tons of fan mail asking you how you did it...:laugh:

What in the heck is TDEE?! *googles* Okay, seriously. Just when I think I got this thing figured out... Resistance, strength, or whatever training. Build muscle. At least this is what worked for me last time. I'll let you know how it goes this time.

What's wrong with getting a manicure? I mean I won't because I'm not quite THAT metro... but really isn't something like that about taking care of yourself? :tongue: Oh... and... you suck! :wink: Love, SH

My suggestion is do your own research but look at ALL the sources. I've found multiple sources that are referencing studies done in the last few months that say high rep with low weight works almost as well for strength gains. When it comes to fitness you'll find the rules change daily. Worst case try one and see if it…

Disregard. Not site specific...

Not doing it sooner will probably be a top on here. Had I kept up my childhood habits I would have never gotten up to 240 in the first place. The other thing I regret is not learning enough about weight lifting. Got a bum shoulder now because of it.

From my understanding you just need to keep your knife super sharp.

I have to giggle at the fact that people are so brainwashed by what the perfect body is that people are actually judging her negatively.

Easy answer: Because women are shallow. Slightly less easy answer: Because women are hard wired to be attracted to men who can protect them. Height, muscles, etc are specific indicators. Totally wrong but entertaining answer: Because Tom Cruise is short and he apparently is crazy.

I can't eat pasta, fast food, or ice cream! Know why? Because I have NO freaking willpower when it comes to those things and I know it. So here's the rephrase: I WON'T eat fast food/ice cream (pasta really isn't an issue). This is a failing on me and would normally be an off hand comment and not the focus of my dietary…

A sock... on my... well ya know... Although it's an ankle sock. :tongue:

Kityngirl is definately mine. Gained and sadly lost a lot of friends... mostly my own choices. Kityngirl was the first person to reply on my first every MFP post.

Nicely done. Wishing you the best and that you have the happiness that I have with my MFP love.

Working nights sucks. Then top that with being limited to chow hall (or cafeteria food for non-military). Not conducive to a healthy diet. Food schedule is jacked. Sleep schedule is jacked. Stress levels are up. If you are fortunate you are able to work on duty. I feel your pain. Honestly though, all I can do is…

Think there are laws about refusing care and options to get free or low cost care. Potentially dying or having severe lifelong issues... it may be a good idea to look into these options now. And I mean this in a no nonsense caring kind of way for anyone who may be in the situation. :flowerforyou:

If 16 pages of replies with what I hope are all supportive comments, that should be a clue that you are in the right place. If you need motivation, something that helps me is checking the success stories. Find some friends and don't get discouraged. I think a good part of the "battle" is making the decision to make the…

I use the GNC under the tongue 1mg tabs. Pretty much helps me fall asleep in about 10-15 min. The stuff you swallow doesnt do a damn thing for me. From my understanding even 1mg is more than our body normally will ever produce. Think it has something to do with how it is absorbed. Would have to do more research, I only…

I'm seriously an amateur and an oddball. I got a Sony a33 with a Sigma 180mm macro and a Sony 3.5-6.3/18-250. Love macro and landscape but I really want to get a really good portrait lens. Still learning a bunch (part of why I came here). I'm also a Paint Shop Pro user... debating on switching over to Photoshop though.

I'm screwed even if it's the worst thing on the planet. I HAVE to run.I I HAVE to run in shoes. I HAVE to fun a certain distance for a certain speed. If I don't... I HAVE to find a new career. Curse of being in the Air Force. On the plus side I am in better shape than I have been for about 10+ years because they got…

Stalking my wife and stumbled here. *wave Kityn* So gonna try these. Wonder how they'll work in the Nuwave.

And every time we take a picture together I try and make you smiles as big as you can. Personally I like my genuine smile just fine. My "trying to look good for the picture" smile is horrible. Might just be that I am NOT photogenic at all.

First goal is to maintain my excellent on my FA and get max points on my waist. Second goal after that is to run a half marathon and/or get my 1.5 mile run to under 11 min. Third goal eventually is to reach a full marathon and/or get my 1.5 mile run to about 10:30.

I've met three and married one of them. http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/Sam_Hain/view/married-my-mfp-sweetheart-174072
