Lower Abs, no experience, weakling!
Hello again :) I lost some weight and I am rather happy with my body, BUT I would love to show some lower abs this summer at the lake (who wouldn't?).

Calorie tracking Excel Sheet!
Hellow fellow MFPals. There is a great Excel Sheet floating around here somewhere. I wanted to wait until I'm home from work, but then forgot to bookmark the site (BOOO)... Could someone post me the link to it? It is a red template to track weekly calories and weight loss/BF%/measurements. Thank you! :)

Gardening, shoveling, calories
Hello everyone :) My mom an I created a complete new flower bed out of an old pond. We dug out at least 50 big rocks, which easily weight 15-20 pounds each and put them on a pile.

Horrible Breakup...am I overreacting?
first of all: Sorry for grammar and spelling errors...I'm not a native speaker (I'm German) I guess I just need someone I can tell all of this....My GF broke up with me at the beginning of February.

Out of control?
I started MFP 23 days ago...and I'm totally out of control. I'm basically obsessed and long for a 4 digit number at the"calories remaining" field. It started last week, not a long time, but I already know deep inside that this is not good. I'm 5000 cals below my weekly goal and it is Sunday night in my part of the world. I…

Common/stinging Nettles for Salads and Spinach Substitute
Hello :) Has anyone tried collecting nettles and use them in salad or as a spinach substitute? I read, that they are in fact delicious and contain 6x more calcium per 100g as milk and more iron than red meat (beef)! I could use some more iron and calcium, since I am vegan and struggle with calcium from time to time :( I'm…
