Rosemary Movie starting with P.

Dancing Queen from Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again. I've had my Modern Broadway playlist on all day today.

yeah, i did and now it has given me another number 1491 and MFP is telling me i now need to eat 2000 calories more. i am so confused.

I know a few people who use it, but my problem is that it gave me two different kcal burn amounts and i don't know which one is the right one. My phone said 362 and the website has it listed as 697. which one would it be?

I have a cousin like that. she's convinced herself that if she eats certain foods--like ketsup that she's going to get a headache, which somehow leads her to believing that it will make her fat. I remember being at a food court with her when she was 10 (she's 14 now) and she criticized the ketsup I put on my burger because…

If there is room, I'm in. Good Luck, all!

Thanks again everyone. I can't afford a heart rate monitor right now, so i'll have to do the percentage thing people have been saying. I haven't really cut any food out of my diet, although I am eating less than I was before starting and I am seeing weight loss. I was starting to think that I was going insane when I saw…

I am hitting the 1700 before working out, but then it drops a lot, so I'm under 1200. Also, apparently, the amount of calories burned is determined by weight + duration (I googled to see if maybe MFP was over-estimating the amount I've burned and every calculator I've found takes my weight into account and gives me an…

I get the total calorie burn off of MFP's search engine. I input what I did and for how long and that's what it gives me.

Thanks for all the replies. Most of the time, I pre-log my meals, although I leave the snacks off until I have them, and when I workout it tends to be late at night (around 10 or 11) because I don't want to be interrupted.

It is a strange thing--high school reunions--I haven't really cared about how I look to others since I was IN high school, but now that we're having the reunion, I'm right back there.

there are so many things... I'm a huge fan of science fiction/fantasy (Doctor Who, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Quantum Leap, OUAT, Charmed, Supernatural, etc.), I love history, and I am a crime junkie (learning about them not committing them, lol).

No, the sun is hot. What is your favorite song?

My short-term goal is 45lbs (245-200), but long-term i want to go 80-100 lbs. Feel free to add me.

My aunts are both heavy smokers and have a lot of mucus every morning because of it. They constantly have to clear their throats and throw up mucus. I don't get how they think smoking is worth it, especially since they're killing everyone around them with that crap. Anyway, the sounds are so disgusting and they are…

For most of 2013, I lived in close proximity to 4 really loud chewers. At dinner it was like surround sound--and the really good Dolby 5.1 Surround Sound. Awful. It drove my mom and me crazy. I don't know what they did, but it sounded like someone put a microphone to their mouths when they chew because I have never heard…

I think it depends on how it was said. I know that when my family members start to notice my weight loss they'll be smug about it, so a comment like that would piss me off. However, if it was said in a less "I told you so" way, then you might be over-reacting.

I've had two proud moments today. The first was resisting the French Butter Crumb cake that is sitting on my counter (I had a Yoplait Light instead) and the second was a few minutes later when my mom asked me if I lost weight. It felt great to tell her that I had lost 3 lbs in my first week. Don't even ask me how I did…

I don't know if anyone has ever mentioned this but you look a lot like the new woman on Law and Order SVU. I don't know the actress's name or even the character because I don't watch it very often, but she used to play Di on All My Children, so I know what she looks like.

I'm pretty new at this (only at it a week), but I like to pre-log because it helps me not to overeat. If I know what I want to have for my meals, then I won't deviate unless something drastic happens. It also tells me just how much I can snack during the day and if I can have that can of coke with dinner, especially if I…

My 10 year high school reunion is tentatively scheduled for June 28th (might be changing to early July because the other area high school is having theirs on the the night we wanted to have ours in the same place--both schools have since closed and the reunions are being planned by former students). I want to lose at least…

My long term goal is 80-100 lbs, but I'm doing it in increments, so it doesn't looks so depressing. Right now my goal is 45 lbs (it started as 40, but when i actually weighed myself I realized I was 5 lbs heavier than i thought--i didn't have a scale until yesterday). I'm at 245 now, so hopefully by June I'll be 200.

Let me just start by saying that I am in no way a psychologist and that I definitely have issues of my own... It sounds to me like you're clinically depressed. I know that is a scary thing to hear, but it is something that you can treat. Please go see a psychologist/psychiatrist. It may seem like the world is ending right…

This is also part of my problem. I know that they don't accept me the way that I am because they have always said little things, cutting remarks about how my weight will keep me from getting a boyfriend or having friends because no one wants to be seen with someone that looks like me. When I was a teenager, my grandmother…

Thanks for all the replies. I have told my mom because she is the one buying the food (I'm unemployed and living with my family until i can move out), but I don't think I'm going to tell anyone else--maybe my brother or my cousin, both of whom wouldn't have anything to say either way. My family (I have 2 aunts,…

Hi, everyone. I'm Elizabeth (or Liz, but not Lizzie or Beth, lol). I'm 27 and I was born and raised in Queens (currently in Howard Beach aka the boonies). I've always had weight issues--at least it has always felt that way. I remember being 10 lbs overweight at 14 and having my gym teacher shame me for those 10 lbs because…

Thanks!

I'm right there with you. I've been using youtube videos (i really like the Denise Austin aerobic dance videos) and I'm always afraid someone will catch me. For me, it isn't about not wanting them to see me work out because it would disgust them or turn them off, but it is about not wanting them to know that I am trying…

I'm with you there on the obese/normal blood pressure and blood sugar thing. The weird thing is that I think I have always been classified as that--at least since I was 12 or 13. I plan on walking/running when the weather is better (another near foot of snow expected tonight and tomorrow) and I will try youtube for other…
