I use UltraSwim, and it works great for my hair type (course, with slight wave) and if you're lucky, you might find it in Walmart or CVS. The best I've seen it is maybe $4.50-$5.00 per bottle. I tend to be cheap and just buy the special shampoo and not the special conditioner. You can get it online from Amazon, but I've…

One of my favorite skirts was passed on to me from a friend. She just said that the skirt "didn't work for her" and didn't explain. I was a happy recipient. If someone did emphasize why, I might be miffed, but I'd still wear the clothes if they were nice :)

Yes, I am very interested in Harry Potter and new challenges! Would love to join in the fun.

Count me in! This will motivate me to keep going to my Turbo Kick class at the gym so I can fend off the volunteer from Districts 1 & 2 :)

Hi, We sound pretty similar in terms of goals and interests. Will send FR. I tend to do more road cycling not mountain biking... But I do have a Specialized rockhopper that I do like. Bike purchases seem to incorporate a few factors: your budget, then figuring out if that will get you the components you want (such as disk…

Hi all, I'm in a similar place... I'm 5'8" in the mid-upper 160s and trying to get to 160. Been on MFP twice now. For the past 15 days I have logged everything, been active, probably eaten back too many exercise calories although I do use a heart rate monitor and Wahoo app. I like longer-distance cycling, and I love Turbo…

Will send a FR. I also am struggling with this too. I saw you're a runner, I do a bit of cycling and find it hard to correctly (or not correctly) eat back the right amount of calories. And if I do mess up, to be honest about it. Best wishes on your journey!

Might be good idea to see specialist for asthma. I also have allergy/exercise induced asthma which is controlled by daily inhaled medication In addition to albuterol prior to exercise. Prior to diagnosis and medication I was also experiencing tightness in chest as symptom, but more disturbingly, I was waking up in the…

Hi, I cycle too, and definitely can relate to 'hungry'. I especially find things a challenge after long bike ride days. I try to spread out the 'surplus' exercise calories over the next day so that when I am hungry after a long ride I can stay 'on track'. Will send FR

This is the funniest thread ever and everybody here looks like my kind of MFP friend (not that I have many). I know my motivation won't come from somebody else and I can't deal with having to be "emotionally supportive", but I can "like" stuff. I don't need nutrition advice but a little sarcasm and the occasional "like"…

This is a great idea. I tend to be really enthusiastic at first, but then after a couple pounds come off I loose enthusiasm and stop tracking, or get lazy. I especially have problems after long-distance workouts and thinking I can eat as much as I did when I was younger. If I stay with this for a month and meet the 5 pound…
