Says you...

Great NSV, great story, cool bike. I had a silver and black F4i for awhile, rode some track days on it. Miss that bike. Currently on a BMW R1200R BMW R1200R Honda VFR800 Honda CBR600 F4i Honda Superhawk VTR1000 (2)

Another vote to read Starting Strength. It was recommended to me by a friend here on MFP and I bought a hard copy and Kindle version. It's a great reference. If you have a Kindle, the sample chapter you can download for free is the chapter on squats. RE: the anesthesiologist comments… I agree that an anesthesiologist isn't…

The only thing that makes watching Idiocracy better is watching Idiocracy with chocolate chip cookie dough.

OK, the chocolate chip cookie dough sandwiched between two chocolate chip cookies kinda blew my mind...

With very few exceptions, I let taste by my guide. There are some "fat-free" or "low-fat" products that I prefer the taste to full-fat (I like 2% cow milk when I drink it, for example). But unless the calorie difference is HUGE, it's not worth it to me - and even then, I may just select another product. I don't subscribe…

That's your post, quoted first up there. You do realize Tony Horton wants to profit from you, right? Not judging him or his products. Just pointing out that he wants to make a profit off of you.

The time you eat doesn't matter. What matters is staying within your calorie goals. The reason "late night snacking" gets such a bad rap is because it often is *additional* calories - going over a calorie goal. All those articles, the advice that talks about not eating after 8:00PM (or some other arbitrary time), that it…

I honestly didn't know you were a BeachBody shill until now. I generally ignore user names (or don't try to read much into them), so the "coach" thing didn't clue me in. That you stand to profit doesn't necessarily discredit what you say. But not following a full disclosure guideline does discredit you, in my opinion.…

Great advice in here. I think it's pretty cool that after two pages of responses, the SM phrase hasn't been used.

Love them both, but totally different shows. Walking Dead has character archetypes, the ability to make the viewer ask "what would I do?" hard questions, and well, f'ing ZOMBIES, with pretty good effects. Justified has better character development and nuance, in my opinion. Both shows are tough to watch caught up - having…

You forget that it's drenched in ZOMG! PANIC EVIL FOOD! sauce. Which adds calories.

Missed this until just now. Great story. Great writing. Thank you for your honesty and patience - with yourself, your progress, and the community here. I am grateful for our friendship.

I don't think this gets talked about enough (part I bolded). Just counting calories - using a tool like MFP or similar - and not attempting to change anything about your diet will generally result in less calories consumed. Just making ourselves aware of what's going in has an effect on people. We want to attribute it to…

There are legitimate reasons for fasting. Detoxing isn't one of them. Generally, neither is weight loss.

Brilliant call-back.

One of the problems with how MFP is set up, in my opinion, is the "reward" when you are under your calorie goal (the way your update gets posted to your wall). The point of a calorie goal is to reach that goal. So at the end of the day, 0 remaining calories should actually get you star stickers and bonus points. But it's…

Agreed. While it's true that MFP is free, that does not mean respectfully asking for improvements are out of line. I don't get that attitude at all. Even if OP didn't bring up the offer to pay for improvements (though that's worth noting again), I don't understand the "it's free, deal with it" approach. I don't think MFP -…

Good info. I wish there was a way to filter out anything with an asterisk. I entered a protein bar today. It was a Honey Stinger Dark Chocolate Mint Almond bar. I typed in "stinger mint" and all three entries that came back had the correct nutritional values. But all three entries were misspelled. Maybe that shouldn't…

I know it does seem like there is a fast food place everywhere you turn. I wish there were more healthy options easily available too, but the reality is that it's cheap to produce, ship, and prepare fast food. And people are buying it. I end up eating at home a lot more, and bringing food to work. I just started a new job,…

You're right. Not sure what I was thinking. I'm not very good at math, apparently.

You've been posting about a plateau for a few days. You say your started your diet two months ago. Dropping from 205 to 194 is a lot of weight very quickly. Unless you are needing to lose 100+ pounds, that's not a healthy weight loss rate. I know how frustrating it is to be stuck at a certain weight after losing some. I am…

OP's post are hidden from all but her friends, so there is not much context to go by. Posting a "rattle the cage" topic in that manner is suspect.

Will this AOL CD-ROM I got in the mail work?

Trying to order "Game of Thrones: A Storm of Swords" in Kindle format. Why isn't this working?

I hear you. I hate when people don't automatically know what my personal preferences and communication style are before I speak to them. Don't they know how important I am? Geesh!

Were you getting yelled at for not paying attention or getting distracted easily or for being judgmental?

1) You don't have to explain not wanting kids, or kids being a deal-breaker in a potential relationship. Completely understandable. 2) As a parent and a pet owner, I will tell you that responsible pet ownership and responsible parenting aren't that dissimilar. My kids love their crates.

Agreed. Although I only consume honey that was gentle coaxed from bees in a soothing environment at 78 degrees F.

Wasn't Poopy Coffee Drips a kids television show in the 80s?
