Haha Crash_aly, I like your quote too.

I ride my bike to work. That's how I manage. I enjoy riding my bike so the ride part is nice, but I burn a **** load of calories in the process, so when I get home I have a few extra calories so I can have a beer.

+100 to this. I'm really thirsty now... Damn it! I rode my bike to work today, which is about 800 calorie burn for me, so I can have that 22 ounce Lagunita's Hop Stoopid when I get home...

Well who new I'd get my next bit of brewing advice from MFP... :) Since i'm a home brewer I've always used dry hops, not fresh. My homebrew store doesn't even carry fresh hops... I'll have to see about locating some for my next batch to see how big of a difference it makes. Can you all recommend any wet hopped commercial…
-
Interesting. I hadn't heard that. So the hop cones go in the fermenter as well? I actually use loose leaf hop's in my beers. No pellets so it doesn't have to be pellets to be considered dry hopping does it? How does wet hopping change the character of the beer over dry hopping?
-
+1 and makes my mouth water... To mimic that "wet hopping" , or Dry hopping as its' called these days, the brewer will add the hops to the fermentation vessel, instead of the boil. Really gets those hop flavors kickin'. IF I ever see a new beer that says it's dry hopped that's my 1st choice.

Actually, the "I" stands for India, not Imperial... Quick Beer History Lesson. The IPA style came to be because when the British would ship their beer to India for their troops it would spoil on the long trip over. So, the brewers brewed beers with higher alcohol content and more hops to take advantage of the natural…

I found it useful. Troll on!

+1 to this one! LOL!

^^^^ THIS. Especially Facing the Giants.

I agree with you, way to much information sometime. I finally just prescribed to the simple idea of burn more calories than I eat and living a more active healthy lifestyle. That was back in November 2011 and I'm Down 33 pounds as of today.
-
23 Lbs since November 1st. December was s really bad month for me, actually gained some weight, but I'm back on track now.

Very well said, agreed on all accounts.

mtbiker = mountain biker. I love anything to do with cycling, especially Mountain Biking....

I 2nd this one. My wife is now on MFP so hopefully she'll see this... :)
-
^^^^^^ That's what I'm talkin' about!

I would recommend you go see your doctor at this point. There are certainly some medical reason's why some people can't loose weight and going to see you doctor would certainly be appropriate at that point. Properly prescribed medications under the supervision of a Doctor to handle a chemical imbalance is way different…

Oh, and by the way, don't let the "All natural" label on pills and supplements fool you. Lot's of poisions, like Cyanide, are "All natural"....
-
When it comes to diet pills drugs like Fen-Phen and Hydroxycut come to mind. The supposed "miracle" weight loss pills or shakes that after a few years of use wind up killing people or leading to liver damage, ect. IMO, You don't know exactly what's in the different diet "supplements" or drugs, so no telling what kind of…
-
My advice is to quit dieting. Diets never work. Instead, concentrate on changing your lifestyle. You can't diet forever, but your lifestyle is for ever. Like the other have said, don't beat yourself up if you aren't doing good. Resolve to make your life better and resolve to change your unhealthy habits to healthy habits.…

I'm going to echo what so many others have said here, find something you love. Personally, I hate about anything inside a gym, but love anything outdoors, especially riding bikes, Mountain Biking, hiking, ect. I found that once I started riding my bike it was like a Good "circle". I enjoyed riding so much that it motivated…

That's Awesome! Good Job, and it sounds like your raising a good young man there!
