Okay, all you high-fructose-corn syrup haters......
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/david-katz-md/fructose-fruit_b_3694684.html How's about a little devil's advocate??? I'm sure there are probably other threads with similar messages, but........well, I just felt like stirring the pot a bit. muahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

Anyone running Grandmas Marathon in Duluth?
I live in Duluth..........have volunteered for the Marathon for over 20 years, and will do so again (not a runner, so have never run the thing!) If you're running, I'll be at the stop just before Mile 23!!! Will give you some water or electrolyte drink :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou:

Any Candy Crush Fans?
I am finding Candy Crush Saga to be my new addiction.........it's sweet and delicious, with no added calories or high fructose corn syrup!!! And I'm SURE I'm burning a LOT as I curse and swear and sweat over those difficult boards! :bigsmile: :sad: :bigsmile: :sad: :bigsmile:

My LBD, two years later!
Wow, I can't believe this one myself! I wore this "little black dress" to my niece's wedding in Aug 2011....................saw it in my closet and thought "hmmm, wonder how that one fits now?" I guess it DOESN'T!! :bigsmile: :heart: :bigsmile: :heart: :bigsmile:

Bathroom photos
I find it rather hilarious that so many people take their pics in the bathroom - never SEEING the obvious stuff behind them! Just saw a post on another thread here with an open toilet in the background.............tacky, people, tacky! (this was NOT the pic I saw on MFP...........but you get the idea ) :bigsmile:…

Salads.......how I love thee!
So, I've been MFPing about a year..............LOVE this place :heart: Have made many changes in how I eat, how I act, all that good stuff. And I've decided that I love salads. Green, crispy, nummy salads. Oh, I've ALWAYS liked them, but didn't eat them very much. Too much like work to chop all that and who has time for…

TESTY people......
No, I'm not talking about people WITH testes, I'm just talking about the ultra-sensitive, can't-take-a-joke, somewhat-psychotic individuals who invade our world...................even HERE................... So, do you know anyone like that? What do you do to handle them??? (yes, even the ones WITH testes!!) :bigsmile:…

Didn't think I was doing that well!
I just compared a pic of me taken this past weekend, and one in the SAME outfit from May of 2010. Hmmm.......I think I see a difference! Although I'm not at my goal yet, I need to remember that I started this journey about a year ago, and I can DO this!!! (dang photobucket!)

Do you "check in" when your weight goes up?
I have been plateauing for a while.......and the scale has gone up and down a little...................and I hate it! I decided NOT to weigh more than once a week, because it's depressing me. So.............question for ya'll..........DO YOU note your weight GAINS in MFP? Or just your losses. Me? JUST the…

CHOCOLOVE! wow, amazing.........
So, I have never been a real big fan of dark chocolate. Having grown up with Hershey bars & Snickers & such, dark chocolate just tasted too strong to me........ BUT NOW - I was given a Chocolove Almonds & Sea Salt 55% cocoa candy bar as a little gift..........holy *kitten*, this thing is just amazing! Am trying desperately…

DEEP THOUGHTS.........
ON another thread, someone mentioned deep thoughts and such, and I couldn't HELP myself..........had to go and look up some Jack Handey Deep Thoughts (any of you who used to watch SNL in its Glory Days can relate.) Enjoy, and if YOU have any Deep Thoughts of your own (original or not), please share! If a kid asks where…

Happy Easter! Let the fun begin!
Okay, then.................I saw this, and thought it needed to be shared. But NOT by any easter bunnies, cuz they'd just EAT them!

Kid related- not weight related
I am worried about my grandson, and how my daughter and her fiance are raising him. Now, maybe this is "normal" behavior for a 4-yr old, and I shouldn't be concerned.......I raised girls, and he's a boy, and maybe this is to be expected? Anyway - for about the last 6 months, he refuses to go places. Now, I could understand…

VACAY pics - Isla Mujeres
I apologize to anyone who doesn't care to look at my vacation pictures.......but I've had so many requests from my MFP friends to post a few, and can't think of a better way :blushing: :blushing: What a lovely island - Isla Mujeres is a half-hour ferry ride from Cancun, and is a beautiful, laid-back, family-oriented,…

Very controversial? Or just stupid?...
Okay, I hope that people bring some intelligent discussion to the table on this, because I'm just more than little floored by a recent 'racism campaign' going on in my town. A few organizations thought it would be a good idea to raise awareness of racism by basically saying that white people are privileged, don't "get it",…

Toe pain
Hi all..............I have had the problem of toe pain for years.........ingrown toenails and other issues really make my hikes and walks a pain. I bought some new boots this fall, and I love them........but no matter what socks I wear, they seem to "scrunch" up in the boots and cause pressure on my toes. I've tried…

MFP pet peeves.....go on, you KNOW you have one!
My biggest pet peeve with MFP posters is those who have to quote the LONGEST post in the thread, making that thread a gazillion pages long..........really? We get the point........just quote a bit, we've all read the previous post, we GET it. (or is this just me?) lol.

THE DREADED Plateau Plague!
Hello everyone! I know this subject is a popular one, but I wanted to know about other people's experiences. I have been on my weight loss adventure since early August. I've done well.........lost about 13 lbs, been happy with that. I am not on a mission to lose weight in a big hurry - I figure it's taken me quite a long…

Beautiful things you can see on a walk!

How to lose this BELLY without doing situps?
My trouble spot, like a lot of women of my vintage, is my tummy! I know I could wear a much smaller size, but this danged gut just gets in the way! My measurements are approx 40/35/39.................If I could just lose more of that belly (and I have lost about 3 inches so far :) , I'd be able to wear smaller clothes!…
