  • Sounds like a 3rd World Problem to me. Much more important things to worry about than someone eating a product in the store that they intend to buy anyway. I've busted open a a bottle of water in the store as I'm walking to the register to buy it because I was really thirsty and dehydrated.

  • Nothing like hard boiled eggs. Nonfat greek yogurt with a good protein granola thrown in for good measure should last you for a while.
  • OP, are you suffering from depression? Depression can completely ruin your appetite and sleep. I wonder what medication you're taking to help you sleep. Drugs like trazedone and mirtazapene are sleep meds that also work on depression/anxiety. Your appetite could also increase when your not as depressed, thus feeling…
  • Snowpiercer was good in a dark, dismal, I'm glad my life doesn't suck that bad kind of way. It was weird but enjoyable.
  • Two a days can be good or bad depending on what you're trying to achieve. Most people that do two a days are training for some particular purpose. I did two a days for a long while becuase I didn't feel like I could get a good enough workout during my morning workout (due to time restraints) and split it into two separate…

  • Machines are a great for beginners as you don't have to worry to much about form but the downside is that it restricts your natural range of motion. Free weights are infinetely better and offers more variety but, for now, machines seem to be what you need to get mobile, strong and active. When you are stronger and feeling…
  • That type of leg press machine sucks in my opinion. I'd only do single leg press on them because of weight restrictions.
  • There are a lot of squats you can do without loading a bar on your shoulders. One of my favorite I like to do is Jeffersons. They absolutely kill the quads. If you don't want to do lunges or squats with dumbbells, there are variations where you can do with a barbell. I do this typically because I want to lift heavy and you…
  • Just a quick look at your diary indicates that the likely reason that you're hungry is that most of your calories are coming from carbs, which it should, but you might want to switch it up a little and start taking in a lot more protein and shift down on your carbs. Protein takes longer to break down and makes you feel…
  • I actually do eat at least 75% of my calories back because I don't log my strength training. Any variation in accuracy of my cardio burn is neutralized by my uncounted calories from strength training. It works for me.
  • Sometimes I'll hit the blinker even when I intend to go straight just in case I change my mind.
  • From a guys perspective, you're likely worrying too much. Guys like variety and difference. From your pic, you don't look unhealthy and you look very attractive. Some guys are superficial but many of us care as much about personality as we do looks. Obviously he's found many things he likes about you. Honestly, many guys…
  • I would not waste my money on weight loss programs like herbal one. A lot of them are fad diet plans that may work but are not designed for lifelong weight management. You have to learn good eating and exercise habits. The key is getting a good, healthy diet with the right amounts of protein, fats and carbs and stay below…

  • That movie was amazing. Very different way of making horror. The second one wasn't anywhere near as good but VHS is a classic to watch for fans of horror.
  • Oh yeah, Battlefield Earth. Totally screwed up an Isaac Asimov classic.
  • The Fountain with Hugh Jackman. I thought that if the guy that played Wolverine was in it, it had to be a winner. I left the theater not having a clue what the movie was about. It was one of those movies that no one said anything at the end and just got up and left. It was that bad.
  • You might want to have some protein in the morning instead of a slimfast shake. Eat a couple of hard boiled eggs for breakfast instead of a shake as the shake will give you some nutrients and calories but it's going to do nothing for you hunger. Snack on nuts, cottage cheese or maybe edamame or some other legume. The big…
  • My best results have come from doing single muscle groups. I tend to hit them harder than doing compound movements and doing compound or full body routines, stronger muscle groups tend to compensate for weaker ones. Isolation exercises are pretty much what I do now except for the tried and true lifts (bench press,…
  • That could be from a variety of different reasons. If they're sore, that could be from muscle soreness, or your shoes, or medical reasons. What is "normal" for one person isn't always normal for anyone else. You have to learn and listen to your body. If it's muscle soreness, it shouldn't last too long. If it goes on for…
  • Are you saying that men look more pumped longer than women? I imagine men look more "muscley" because they typically have more...umm...muscle? The bigger the muscles, the more they show, regardless of body fat. Cut more body fat off and the bigger the muscles look. Women's muscles aren't more naturally relaxed than a…
  • I haven't tried a whole lot. I have found what works for me and stick with that and there really isn't anything that I can't go without. However, I typically like a pre-workout before my gym visits and I use No-Xplode 2.0, which gets me amped to absolutely kill some weights and cardio. I've had some pretty good results…
  • Simply because MFP doesn't care what source the carbs come from.
  • Is she in the US? If she has a job, she should be able to get health care, or at least Medicaid. Anyway, give it to your cousin. You and your husband have insurance and he can easily just go to a same day ER clinic, get medication and get your insurance to cover it. He just needs to tell them that he's finding it more…
  • I get oily skin and like to shower on a daily basis. It works well for my skin type. I may skip a day on the weekend if I'm just hanging around the house. For a while I was showering up to three times a day because I was working out twice a day and did not like starting my day off without a shower. I wouldn't say that…
  • BMI might work well for the nonathletic masses but doesn't work well for anyone that is sports or fitness focused.
  • I saw elusive unicorn and thought of something completely different. This is so amazing, I'm not sure if I should be disappointed or not.
  • I typically grab a bunch of towels that my gym has and use them as barriers between myself and the weight benches if I use one. If I'm particularly sweaty that day, I'll grab one of the wetwipes that my gym has in dispensers all over the gym and wipe it down. I don't particularly care if someone else does, just don't leave…
  • What would I call it? A sexality?
  • Only honey bees, they are probably one of the most important species of bugs in existence. Without them, a large portion of plant life would die off. Lady bugs are pretty important too. They keep other bug life and parasites under control.

  • I'm sure it has everything to do with how you're logging your food. Do you weight your food or just guesstimate or go off of the packaging. The packaging itself can be incorrect as manufacturers are allowed to be a few grams off on the weight, up or down. If you're not losing weight, you are either eating more than you…
