Harley Quinn is a 5 year old Pitt Bull mix I found dumped in a parking lot at 7weeks old, middle of November. All I wanted at the Grocery store was a turkey baster, came home with a puppy. Go…
  • In my living room, pantless, playing Sims3.
  • Nope, my husband and I are child free by choice. Oh the switch has been turned on before, but after a lot of self searching it was more of a "I want what my friends have" moment. I am not emotionally equipped to handle the responsibility of raising a child and I know it. Plus, The desire to raise a child is just not there…
  • Because being unhealthy is easier, I read through the rest of the posts, I totally had a bad attitude as well before I got my swift kick in the *kitten* from my husband. I would be more than happy to be your friend here if you like? :)

  • I know for me it can be a lack of results in the time I expect them. Then my brain turns into Ms. Negative Nancy and the doubts come flowing in. I start to wonder if it is worth it, I begin to question if I can do it. Which is why I have MFP and a group of amazing friends who will literally and figuratively kick me in the…
  • I would so love a family locker room for parents with kids, that would get rid of the whole problem IMO. Adult Men, Adult Women, Parents with Kids. Done lol.
  • What keeps me motivated... • Diabetes, which runs in my family, I don't want it. • Bad Knees at 29 years old • Realizing I would be dead if a Zombie Apocalypse were to occur tomorrow. • I feel better about myself • I look better • I get stronger every day • I am happier In the end you have to want it enough to be willing…
  • I realize that there is "Family Swim Time" at the gym, I do not swim on day's/times I know that this is happening because I dislike noisy children in a pool, but for the love of everything that is holy please stop letting your kids run FULL FREAKING TILT through the locker rooms on their quest for the pool. There are…
  • I suppose it depends on your definition of sore. Some people it means that they can't even lift their arms above their head the next day, others it's just a discomfort but you can still perform daily functions. Best thing I have found when I have over worked my muscles is stretching and rubbing them. My legs get me more…
  • I only weigh in every 2 weeks, and measure every 2 weeks. I think weighing every week discourages me, especially if I am retaining water. I prefer measuring because then at least I know I am losing inches if not weight. I set different goals for myself, rather than just lose 2lbs a week I challenge myself to go to the gym…
  • Don't change your weight, if you were eating properly and exercising that weight is in no way fat and will be easily lost again. I retain anywhere from 3-15lbs of water weight when my TOM show up. Nothing to get terribly discouraged about. I find that keeping my sodium at about half for the week leading up to my TOM helps…
  • @ rockbass, I asked a friend of mine that runs marathons, she said it was odd but might be an early onset of shinsplints. @julieh391, exactly! Mine are gone today but I run again tomorrow. @jsto830, they started itching after a run and it itches on and off during the day. Today I haven't noticed it, but I sat last night…
  • Could school my butt on the topic of protein shakes.
  • @ktilloston14, a Doctor with love for Rock Climbing.
  • How did I miss this thread! Tomorrow me and my fit club friends are having a Doctor Who Marathon! My Bestie just recently started watching New Who on Netflix with me, now my 3yr old God Daughter is a fan and tomorrow we finish up Tennant and start Smith! I dress in garb and do medieval weapon combat with foam weapons in…
  • I know a lot of people weighed in on this and I just wanted to let you know that I also have hyperthyroidism. I was also wigged out at having to take a pill for the rest of my life and I tried in vain to regulate it myself but ended up having to take the pill every day anyways. I have been on it for 8 years. I have had no…
  • I have the low cut socks that stop just at the top of my shoe. The detergent is one that I actually make myself (I have really bad skin issues with detergents) but I thought that it couldn't be that because I would itch everywhere. This itch is deeper, if I could scratch the bone in my leg I think it would help.
  • Honey Raisins Jam (apple butter is nummy) Pureed Pumpkin (and some cinnamon and splenda)
  • I just started training for a 24 week program for a Half Marathon (what can I say, I am a glutton for punishment lol) Start out walking, then walk faster, and faster, until you can complete a couple miles without becoming winded at all. Then move up to something more advanced. The best advice I received was "If you are…
  • http://www.walmart.com/ip/Sportline-Duo-1025-Heart-Rate-Monitor-Black/11996060 This is the one I currently have and I love it! It was cheaper in the store by about $15 and does all the stuff I wanted a HR Monitor to do. Though mine is in Grey. So far it has worked very well for me, I have had it a little over a month now…
  • Oh I am LOVING this thread! I am going to have to add to my music list tonight! Here are a few of my Faves (Don't judge, some have a good beat!) Drowning Pool = Bodies Avirl Lavigne = Girlfriend Hyuna Kim = Change Cher Lloyd = Want you Back Christina Aguilera = Candyman Cypress Hill = Insane in the Brain Fall Out Boy =…
  • Oh, I would have been LIVID if someone had started talking like that to me. You are a much more patient person than I am. All the clothes I would have been holding would have probably been dropped right where I was, I would have guilt tripped the hell out of that man. I would call his manager, it may have been a few days…
  • Easy Butternut Squash Soup, I forget where I found it honestly. 1 Med Onion 1 Butternut Squash 32oz of Chicken Stock (I use low sodium) Olive Oil Salt & Pepper to taste The first time I made this recipe I used 1 whole onion, I found the onion to be a bit overpowering so next time I am only going to use half of one. Peel,…
  • The way I make it is I take a whole head of Cauliflower (Or a bag of Frozen) chop it up and boil it until you can stick a fork in the thickest part and there is no resistance. Drain the water off, put it in a bowl and use a potato masher until it is the consistancy that I like. You can steam the cauliflower as well, some…
