Learning to box
Recently, I have had a real urge to learn how to box. I've been watching videos online about learning some technique, bought a heavy bag, and have been looking around for gyms with boxing classes/lessons. Anyone in here box regularly? Any advice/tips? I'm thinking I may want to get into a bit of actual fights eventually,…

couple of small succsses that made my day
Well I’ve been on here since early this year. Did pretty good for about a month or so, then for whatever reason I kinda fell off. I gained that back and it bothered me so I got back into it the beginning of October. So far I’ve been real good with my eating. To the point that the other day I ate some McDonalds fries and…

Just curious on people's thoughts on this. Me and some buddies got into a drunken debate over the weekend on which accent is the sexiest. We were stuck between an English accent and a slight southern accent. What are your thoughts?

Lillt bit of success so far
Well, I've been on MFP since the beginning of March. I've been really working on my diet and cutting out all the bad crap that I used to live on and replaced it with better foods. I had tried that in the past but it never really stuck for more than a couple weeks. As of now, I've been pretty good with it for almost 2…

BIG TOE PAIN HELP!!!
After getting home from work yesterday, I did some work around the house. Light, easy stuff like dishes and laundry. After that I was sitting on the couch and fell asleep for like an hour. When I woke up I tried to stand up and nearly fell to the floor in pain. The muscles above and below my left big toe hurt like hell. My…

raw vs. cooked... What do I do???
On of the things I do is chop up a bunch of different veggies a couple times a week. I throw them in a big bowl and leave them in the fridge. I tend to sautee them up and throw in some rice or pasta or whatever I feel like that day. My question is, when I go to log all my veggies, I've seen that there are options of "raw"…

how to make protein powder taste better??
I just bought my first jug of protein powder last night. I got it because I don't get enough protein from what I eat, so I'm just trying to up the intake I'm not on one of those crazy get-ripped plans. The thing is, I mixed it with water like was suggested and it's not that good. The package says I can mix it with milk or…

Bike plans and recommendations??
I'm working on a C25K plan right now to get up to running a 5K and to burn off some weight. Every now and then, my knee starts bothering me after running for a while. When that happens, I jump on a bike. The thing is, the programs on the bike don't seem to being to much for me. I don't know if I'm not programming them…

is here such thing as too much vitamin A and C??
Well I've been tracking my foods for the past week and have noticed something I'm not sure if I need to be alarmed about or not. I have replaced a lot of junk food snacks with an apple, orange, or other kind of fruit or veggie. After filling out my diary I'm seeing that a lot of days I'm like 100% or more over my Vitamin A…

new guy with a couple questions
OK, well I'm new here (started this week) and honestly, pretty new to eating healthy. I admit my food choices in the past haven't been the best when it comes to health, that's why I'm where I'm at now. I have decided that I'm going to make a big change and fix that. I've been eating good foods for a few weeks and cutting…

Wii fit, worth buying??
My son got a wii for Christmas and I'm thinking about getting a wii fit board and games. Are they worth buying? I work 2 jobs and some days don't have the time to go to a gym to workout, but I thought having this available to get some quick workout time in between jobs might be beneficial. Thoughts??

Just signed up today, looking for some friends and encourage
Hi there everyone. My name's Matt. I'm 27 and from Cincinnati, Ohio. I have always been known as the "fat kid" and finally hit a wall to do something about it. Back in high school I was very active with marching band and playing sports, but even then I was a little on the heavy side (200-215 lbs). After graduating HS, I…
