Sprint Iphone for Life Plans
Anyone on this? I currently have unlimited everything for $85 a month and I was told by sprint that if I join this plan they will let me lease the phone for $5 instead of the $20 as Im a long time customer. Im only interested if my total bill will go down. How much is your bill? Worth the change or not?

Getting Frustrated and Talking about Giving Up
I admit I whine when the scale doesn't move in my favor, if I dont feel like my body is changing fast enough I complain. I say "thats it, todays the last day Im not doing this anymore." But guess what, when I get up in the morning I still work out and still count calories! Its like an addiction now, I cant stop. I not…

I bought a used weider pro bench press and I dont know how much the bar alone weighs. Anyone know? I was unable to find it online. I dont own a scale (go me!) so Im not able to check it at home myself. TIA

Calories in vs Calories out
I understand the calories in vs calories out. My question is if I have my burn (from a fitbit) and my intake (weighed) correctly. Should I be losing exactly my deficit every week? Example. This week my deficit was calculated at 8468calories. But yet I only lost 1 pound. Does that mean Im miss calculating? Or are some weeks…

Play List
Whats on your playlist while you run? I have a playlist of Marine Cadences and I love listening to them while I run. They make me smile, help regulate breathing and give me a consistent beat to run, walk to.

NSV...thighs!
Last night my guy was casually rubbing my legs and suddenly stopped looked at me and started asking if I had lost weight in my thighs! Since this is one of my problem areas I was SO glad to hear it because yes I have. I have just been quietly and anxiously waiting for him to notice so it made me feel great.

Buttoning them was a bit of a struggle..and I took them off and said "I'll wear them next week when they fit better" but they fit! This was my first goal...now onward and…

Two New NSV's :)
About 2 weeks ago I made the decision to start drinking more water, this meant no more Gatorade or soda. A week later I joined MFP. Now that I'm getting in to the swing of things I have noticed improvements besides my weight loss. My skin is softer and less sensitive to the touch (I used to always complain about how if…

Not so good: Today a repeat customer (he's in his 60s, Im not, LOL) said to me "damn girl your looking good in those jeans" gross I think both guys meant the same...one was…

The Desert
I drink my 8 8oz glass of water per day but my legs still look like the Sahara! I always thought I had such dry skin from not drinking enough water. Does any one else have this problem? Can I drink enough water to get rid of it or is it lotion for life?

The Little Things
What types of things do you do BESIDES focused exercising to help with weight loss? I read that even standing up burns about twice as many calories than sitting down so at work I try do do as many jobs standing as I can, less sitting at my desk. And then when I am sitting I try to keep a foot tapping or something moving. I…

An Unhealthy Obsession?
A friend of mine has been on this site for about a week now and though we are both trying to lose weight I was trying to avoid it. Why would I avoid a site that helps with my goal? Well, because I know myself. Things like this quickly turn into an obsession and I start to lose focus on everything else in my world. The only…
