I know I'm getting older (33) but I'm not that old. Blackheads, blotchy-ness, wrinkles (there's this awesome upside-down curve over my chin now), bags under my eyes, ect. I know sleep, I'm going to work on that. More water? Vitamins? Fish oil? Fruits, veggies? What helps nutritionally?

We are both about 5'9" and 160lbs, his shoulders are bigger, my *kitten* is bigger. His feet are slightly bigger, fingers…

Anyone have any fun meal planning aps?
If I had infinite time and computer programing skills I'd make a program where I could enter in all the typical meals I make/like, their ingredients and their nutrition. Then the program would populate say a month's calendar with meals (with nutrition info) AND generate weekly shopping lists.

2166 calories works.
So I've been tracking calories consistently for about 5 weeks. During this time I've consumed on average 2188 calories a day.

So say I wanted to get this symbol: possibly colored in in same way, or maybe in brown instead of black ink, where should I get it and how big. I already have a tiny one on my hip, and one on my shoulder blade. And I'm kind of wanting to be able to see this one (unlike the current one on my back). And GO!
