  • I don't understand how this is possible? I've been married/engaged for about 15 years now. We still do date nights, spontaneous lunch or coffee hook ups. It takes work and effort, even more so than when dating!! Hoping things change around for you!!
  • I think you are beautiful, and would totally date a girl that was bald (by choice or illness). Ditto to what was said above, loving the captivating blue eyes!!
  • Ditto to most of the posts above. Don't rely on the scale as the sole judge of progress. I stepped on the scale the first session with my personal trainer, and we did the measurements. She hasn't asked to for a second weight yet, and it's been 5 weeks of workouts. I primarily judge how I'm doing by how my clothes fit, and…
  • Good morning, just did your survey. Good Luck! Like most surveys the questions where moderately directed to a pre-determined outcome. Particularly the loyalty questions, ie. I'm loyal to this company, and I wouldn't do anything to harm it or its reputation, but if a better offer came in, I'd jump, but I wouldn't divulge…
  • Welcome Kelly, If you believe you will succeed, then you will!! My advice (and I'm no expert), start focusing on healthy eating, and making good choices (ie. no chips, etc) then work your way into calorie counting. I've found small, incremental steps, have helped me to continue with the program!! Good Luck. You can add me…

  • Don't be lonely!! There is tons of support here, and from a lot of good people! Like everything Internet, ignore the trolls! I'm not the best for updating, and I am still learning how to eat, workout, etc, etc. So I'm no expert by a loooooong stretch, but I'm here and you can add me if you like! Good Luck, this is a step…

  • You can add me, I'm just a boy. Married with kids. Try to eat healthy and train enough to keep up to them! I log all exercise and food, even the beer and nacho binges!! >:)
  • Shave. Shave. Shave. Buzz looks lazy and makes you look like a dirty Q-tip. Shave daily in the shower, adds 5 minutes to your shower time. if you are getting dry scalp and such, check out Headblade for all your head shaving needs. I swear by their shave cream and lotions!
  • Hi Charlotte, That is quite the combo or I guess trifecta. Definitely could put you in a tough place, if you let it. A couple of my secrets: 1. Every morning when I wake up, I tell myself I'm going to have a great day. I know, sounds corny, but every day I have a great day. 2. I am careful how I word things like goals and…
  • I use the fitbit flex, as does my wife, brother, his wife, my cousins, etc, etc. Seems fairly accurate, not very fancy so I only charge it once a week. Links directly to MFP so all the food / water / fitness tracking I do here transfers over and vice versa. I find that because I wear it every day, every where I go. Its a…
  • My wife and I both have the Fitbit flex, and I know that we both are very happy with them. Is it 100% accurate no, if you move your arm quickly when sitting you will get an extra step, but if when you are walking and your hand is in your pocket, you might lose a step, so in the end it probably averages out. I have my…
  • For starters, you have made great progress!! Now, do not give anyone the power to take that away from you! Who cares what somebody says, who isn't an important part of your life. If a friend takes you aside and says "you've got spinach in your teeth", take that seriously, but if some random d-bag on the street makes a…
  • I'm a Fitbit guy, so I use the Fitbit scale to track weight and BMI/%Fat. It's nice since it's wireless it uploads right to the Fitbit app, so no having to record and enter the data somewhere. Kind of expensive at $100 (CAD), but seems to be pretty accurate for weight and no worse when compared to the drugstore one it…
  • Gummy anything (bears, worms, etc) or shoe shopping - and I NEVER feel guilty! :glasses:
  • Our office has a bit of a split, office casual for our Office Manager/General Cat Herder, and for us the Property Managers, its suits (no ties) or slacks and jacket. Pressed shirts (button ups only), dress shoes. During the summer, on Fridays a golf shirt and slacks is ok, as long as we are not doing collections that day.…
