I still think about my 9th grade biology teacher. I just wouldn't tell the woman I loved about her though.

I love science. It's nice that there is an equation to solve. C55 H104 O6 + 78 O2 ---> 55 CO2 + 52 H2O. This is why most mad scientists are skinny.

I weigh myself after morning ablutions and before breakfast every day. Sometimes it is the highlight of my day. I log my weight on MFP on Mondays and Fridays. Not to track the week. It is actually Friday to Monday that I am keeping an eye on. Weekends get away from routine and I have to be careful. Publishing my weigh ins…

I eat the fruit and maple oatmeal from McDonald M-F. It is high in fibre and it keeps me filled up for 290 calories. Thats a hugely important point. There are things could eat with fewer or similar calories but they leave me hungry after about 90 minutes.

That is the only downside to drinking so much water, the inevitable trips to the bathroom.

I understand the appeal completely. They give women super powers.

Start slowly and give yourself time to start feeling better. Once you start to see and feel results, it's a lot easier to jump into it with both feet. If you need any extra incentive to lay off the soda....that stuff can just plain kill you. " Drinking as little as two soft drinks a week appears to nearly double the risk…

I understand the effects of depression. I suffered from Major clinical depression and PTSD. I became agoraphobic and passed my time by eating and watching television. One of the biggest factors in conquering the spiral cycle of defeat was for me to get moving. Taking a walk releases endorphins and it helps you achieve a…

My intuition tells me to pack on the pounds because winter is coming. I can't trust that guy. My intuition is a byproduct of evolution that has included countless years of famine. I need to know how many calories are in what I am about to eat. Before MFP I didn't pay attention to things like the bun having more calories…

I'm not saying it something I believe firmly. There are too many people that take things on blind faith. I am open to the possibility that someday science will find the cure for cancer is the correct proportion of caffeine, nicotine, whisky , bacon and chocolate.

There is so much information / mis-information out there, but if you can trust that anyone has the data to back it up I will defer to Harvard on his. http://www.health.harvard.edu/blog/eating-too-much-added-sugar-increases-the-risk-of-dying-with-heart-disease-201402067021

So far I have cut my morning coffee from an extra large triple triple to a large double double and now its a medium regular. I have been drinking a lot more water than ever and so far that much is working. As for why I am cutting sugar, nothing I have read anywhere has anything good to say about it's effect on the human…

The fact that I enjoyed smoking made it tough. I love sugar. This is almost mission impossible, My morning coffee was a Large triple triple. Yesterday I changed it to a double double. Baby steps. Chocolate raises your heart rate enough to burn off as much as you eat. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
