I started a group so we could all chat and not have the discussion get buried in other chatter on the forum! Please join :) http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/6239-london-olympics-2012

Actually, that's the exact same reason the humanities became so competitive. Most programs only accept fully funded students and since so many programs lost so much of their funding, programs where they used to accept something like ten students per year could only take maybe three.

AAAHHHH I am so excited! My favorite sports are gymnastics (including rhythmic) and diving, but I will literally watch any sport if it's an Olympic event. And I will cry and cry at every medal ceremony, regardless of who wins. I just have so much respect for the athletes.

I have not actually run into this, but the humanities are not the place to wait out a recession. For one thing, it became exponentially more difficult to get into a humanities program after 2008-2009.

Honestly? I think going blond should be left to the professionals. Put down the box and get thee to a salon!

Hunger Games is nothing like Twilight. I loved the books and the film! I know Jennifer Lawrence was somewhat controversial when she was cast but I thought she was brilliant. I basically sobbed from the reaping scene to the end of the movie.

Westside Market is an amazing place to eat. It's kind of an indoor famer's market but with everything you'd possibly want in addition to produce. Cleveland does have good food but it's not exactly light fare most of the time.

I do this. I try to look at my weekly intake rather than daily.

I'm very competitive but I hate team sports so I take a lot of fitness classes. I wouldn't say it makes it fun but it pushes me.

Another surrender. Caffeine isn't all bad.

Well, the thing is, it's a functional park as well as a cemetery and sort of a site of historical interest as well. So you could argue that you're exploring nature and history (and getting some exercise, lots of people jog or walk their dogs there).

I am also having trouble breaking the 130 mark. I'm 5'6 and have 21% body fat but would like to be smaller. Some bodies just fight for it, I guess.

As a dancer, I am mighty impressed with Quick's flexibility and reflexes.

The art museum is pretty great, as is Westside Market. Also, this may sound strange but Lakeview Cemetery is absolutely beautiful.

Thanks! I did not think to look for a group. Just joined :)

True, but the Kings really ran him ragged last night. It was like the first goal they scored really shook him up and he never recovered.

Be careful with boxing! There is a lot of quick, lateral movement and bouncing that can hurt your knees.

The host should have the reception he or she can afford to pay for. Guests are entitled to be treated as such, and should not have to pay for their attendance at your party in any way. YOU invited THEM. I know that there is gratuity paid to the facility, the host should also tip the servers separately.

The host of the reception should tip the bartenders, not the guests.

I did the exact same timeline! It took me until I was 28 to finish my BA because I felt like I had to choose between dance and academics and I figured, you can only dance when you're young. However, I would say that over half of the grad students in my department are around my age so I don't feel at all out of place in…

No, not really. I think it's more about how familiar people are with etiquette. I mean, I have been to several weddings with dollar dances. My cousins all had them at their weddings. Familiarity with it doesn't make me consider it any less tacky. I don't think this is something that can be excused away by cultural…

I have no regrets except that I wish I had fought my surgeon harder to make them smaller (she insisted I wouldn't want to go from one extreme to another, I was 18 when I got the surgery. She was wrong). where you overweight at the time? No what happened when you lost weight after? They shrink. But they get bigger when I…

I'm doing my PhD in art history. I have two more semesters of coursework before I take my exams.

According to both wrist and elbow data, I am large framed. Which is interesting because I have always been considered pretty petite and small. But it makes sense that I'd always look smaller than I actually am because I don't have to lose much weight to have protruding bones.

Be excellent to each other, or party on, dude?

Oh. My. Goodness! That pudding looks delicious! How have I never thought of that before?

I love avocado so I'll eat them with a spoon out of the shell. They're delicious on sandwiches and salads. Throw them in a blender or food processor with some lime juice for yummy salad dressing. They also go well in smoothies. Breakfast burritos. Heck, any burritos. I am from Southern California so I'm actually having a…

So a few weekends ago I decided to have a cheat day I wouldn't log. I had been DYING for chocolate cake and I was going to eat as much of it as I wanted. I chose a day and gave myself permission to eat ALL THE CAKE. So I sat down with a giant piece and I could only finish about half. At a certain point, I really did feel…

Cultural relativity can't excuse everything.

I tried it for a month and my weight loss stalled. I don't think it works for everyone.
