  • Looks fantastic! Can't do it this year ($$) but if it's there next year I'm up for it.
  • I started with a 15lb curling bar because I thought I was weak and as I'm shorter the full bar seemed too long. It helped me get into it. Now I'm looking for a long bar because I don't want to buy more weights just yet. :)

  • Good question. I'm intrinsic when it comes to my activity. If I push to get extra steps or extra miles or faster time or lift more, it's because I am competing against myself alone. I know I'll never be a world class athlete but that's not the point. With weight loss it's mixed. I have never been fit or thin and I just…
  • Yup. We even have a group: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/groups/home/631-doctor-who-fans Groups are cool. :)
  • Eep on that commute. Sounds like you don't have much time to do dedicated walking, but you can try to make it part of your day by increments. Here's a post with some good ideas- http://hr.csumb.edu/tips-increase-steps I employ a lot of them. Some, like parking at the far end of the lot may seem like they'll take more time…
  • Covert-Bailey was touted as more accurate but from the anecdotal evidence I've seen with my own checks and posts here and about the web it seems to regularly give a lower number than the others. My advice? If you really want to be accurate, get a DEXA or similar test. If you are just wanting to track progress, pick one, or…

  • David Tennant in glasses. Yum.
  • First, thanks! :) I'm quite proud of the changes I've been able to make in just a few months and your recognition gives me a warm fuzzy feeling. :) I have an iPod nano 6th generation that has an accelerometer. It's the same device that the FitBit uses, but the nano doesn't have an altimeter to measure stairs. It measures…
  • You can take it as a progress marker. To her eyes you have achieved your goal, the journey finished. You may have many miles to go in your mind, but it's good to have that outside perspective...even if it was a bit backhanded. She on the other hand is still at the fork in the road. She may think she's ready, but her feet…

  • Been there, although I didn't have any cute guys offer to spot me *pout*. :smile: You can buy nipple shields at most dept. stores or if you really um stand out, nursing pads offer extra padding and coverage.
  • I think guys (and gals) should be proportional. If you have big arms with chicken legs or vice versa it just looks odd to me. I like muscular calves and appreciate them. The best part about summer is all the guys running in shorts. :)
  • I've suffered horribly from it at times. It's not pleasant to want to go to sleep but be unable to because of the stupid twitching legs. Hot showers and stretching can help when it comes. To try to prevent them, make sure you are getting enough potassium as the above poster said-here's a link to a list of foods that are…
  • I think 150 miles is a great achievement. You are setting your sights higher for this month. You are making progress one step (haha) at a time. That's something to be very proud of.

  • I'm unique, just like everybody else. I've been called flaky, but never a snowflake. *sniff*
  • Not sure I can condone that. I pronounce "Every" with three syllables.
  • So are you saying these people are excluded from the ban?
