I've counted calories forever (used to have a real paper food journal!), but this makes it so much easier!

I'm a project coordinator for a global power management company. I have a desk job, so I bring all my food to work and I walk on my morning, lunch, and afternoon breaks.

Coldplay, The Fray, and DMB! Can't wait!!!!

What a fun topic!!! I'm the tennis star! My 4 songs: Pimp Juice (Nelly), Through the Wire (Kanye West), Slow Jams (Twista), drawing a blank on the 4th I planned (didn't happen) to be a genetic counselor Latest technology was TEXTING!! Don't remember what I watched on TV Best thing that happened senior year was getting into…

I usually don't log less than 30 because my goal is at least 30 a day. Anything less than that (a 15 minute walk around the building at lunch) I just see as a bonus.

Hot yoga! Eeeeeek! That scares me, lol!

I've know my husband for 13 years, we dated for 4 years, broke up for 4 years, and now we've been married 3 months! It's wonderful :)

I have a 2 story, 6 bedroom house, which is mostly hardwood floors. When I spend 2 hours mopping, scrubbing, and going up and down stairs, I SWEAT! That said... I don't generally log it as exercise, but I don't doubt it burns some calories.

I love No More Trouble Zones. I also have all her DVDs, and this one is one of my favorites. You just need some hand weights, not too heavy because you will use them A LOT.

Thanks girls. Let me clarify, I net probably about 1300-1500 a day, but with all my exercise, I am allowed around 1800 usually. So I should eat the full 1800 calories? Or whatever my exercise calories add to my allowance?

My girls bought their dresses and shoes, but they were able to choose both themselves. I didn't mandate that they buy a crazy expensive dress or shoes. I bought their jewelry. I told them if they wanted their hair or makeup done, they could pay for it, but I didn't mind if they didn't get professional hair and makeup done.

My hubby is Mexican... he says I'm Latina on the inside, does that count?? ;)

Yep, "unsubscribe" them. You don't see their updates but they are still your friend. My fave fb feature.

OMG I logged MILES on my Skip-It

Did anyone make those paper fortune tellers?

Beaches... shot to the heart!

I LOVE MY IN-LAWS!!!! Big ol' Mexican family :)

Yikes! Just trying to find some kind ways to get around people who aren't very supportive... Should have known better than to post in the forum. It always turns nasty.

I count hot tea (decaffeinated) because it doesn't add anything to make it "not" water anymore. Coffee does have like 3 calories or something, but it also has the caffeine and other substances that wouldn't hydrate you the same way water does.

Anything mushy- avocado, banana, tomatoes, omg MAYONAISE GAGGGG!!!!! Ew I'm nauseous now.

RED WINE AND DARK BEER!!!!!

You can keep the sweets, but carbs and salt are my weakness! Chips, bagels, MARGARITAS (with lots of salt), fries, pasta... ugh I'm hungry.

Yep! She's on the other side of the state from me though ;)

Me too! We also have: Zach Galifianakis Jenelle from Teen Mom (ha!)

Whoever said this is why people don't go to gyms is exactly right. This thread is mean and really pretty dumb. It's crazy to me that anyone would take the time to sit down and write about the wardrobe of perfect strangers in the gym.

The one above me wasn't there when I went to post! Guess they beat me to the "post reply" button!

Pink flowers are pretty :)

To the OP- since you are new to MFP, I will just go ahead and tell you, you WILL be crucified for anything and everything you say. If people don't criticize the content of your post, it will be your spelling, grammar, punctuation, SOMETHING. Trust me, it's happened to most of us on this site. Just a little friendly tip!

I definitely log my cleaning. I do it once a week, and it takes a good hour. I work up a sweat, and go up and down my stairs a zillion times. Not sure why it bothers anybody else!

I didn't gain until I got to college! (no longer in college, but trying to lose what I gained there)
