Jackie Fans!
Okay, I am starting a Jackie Warner fan group! It's time this lovely lady gets some much deserved attention. This can just be a place for us to talk about her workouts, our struggles & progress, and whatever encouragement we may need to keep at it. Is anybody currently doing their own workout plan of hers? I got out of the…

High school body
I find it interesting that my current goal weight is the weight I was in high school. However, at the time I thought I was so fat. It's so silly how our self image gets so distorted. Anybody else feeling this way? For fun, feel free to add a picture of your high school self. It'll be like an old MFP yearbook. :)

Famous Last Meals
Sorry if this has been posted before. I know it's an old article, but it was a new read to me. It was pretty interesting to see what these people were served. Enjoy.. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/06/17/famous-last-meals_n_879020.html#s293776&title=Robert_Dale_Conklin

Unconventional Celebrity Crush
During a recent conversation with a friend, I found out this guy who is in his 20s has a thing for Martha Stewart. This led another girl to admit her crush on Dr. Phil :-) I thought it would be interesting to see the unusual "crushes" you all have, or have had.

Someone you wanted to punch
Name someone you wanted to punch today. I'll start. I work at a vision center and this gorgeous girl was looking around for new glasses. In her valley girl voice she is fighting with her mom about the glasses she wants. She picks out some big, plastic frames (the kind you would see on your Grandma) and decides she wants…

What did you last laugh at?
My husband just told me that on his way home from work today he saw two dogs humping right in the middle of a country road. He said he didn't know what to do. He didn't want to honk and scare the female because he was afraid she would make a sudden movement and end up injuring the male dog. He also obviously said he felt…

Shedding For The Wedding
I can't wait to watch tonight to see all their transformations! Anybody else excited? Go Adam and Dawn! :) :)

Late Learner
Somebody posted something similar today on Facebook and it had lots of fun responses, and was full of information some of us still didn't know, so I figured I would try it out on this board as well. "What is something that you learned later in life than most?"

Pajama Jeans
I've seen this infomercial so many times in the past few days, that I just had to ask... Has anybody actually bought a pair, or known somebody who has? I found it interesting that the commercial says they look good on all body types, and yet none of the models looked overweight by any means, and all had a nice booty. I'd…

Shedding For The Wedding
Did anybody else watch this show tonight? Thoughts? I think it'll be fun to watch.

Subway Februany
In honor of Subway's February deal I thought it'd be fun to see what everybody's sub of choice is. I've only ever had 2 different kinds, but then I think of the endless possibilities that are out there to try. So, what do you order?
-
Golden Globes
I just browsed through a gallery of photos showing the celebs arriving at the Golden Globes. I love looking at the dresses. However, all I was noticing tonight was just how tiny they all are. It seems like every year they shrink a little more. It's a sad feeling. I'm just glad I'm starting to finally be accepting and happy…

hello, dexter morgan
*Sigh* Could someone explain why I have such a crush on Dexter? I never knew I could swoon over a serial killer. Ha Ha Ha :) My hubby likes to laugh at me about it too. He's a good sport. I guess it's the bad-boy thing. Or... that dang tight shirt he kills in; yum :) Anyway. After recently seeing how many Dexter fans are…

Cute Love Stories
This past week my husband and I found out that 2 different sets of our mutual friends are getting divorced. Both of us have had several of our separate friends break-up too. Sometimes it feels like everyone around us is crumbling down. I just thought it'd be nice to have a thread that reminded us of the joys of love.…

Needing some spice help
Hey there. Tonight I was standing in the kitchen staring at my spice rack we received as a wedding gift about 3 years ago and realizing that I had probably only used it a handful of times. That may be an exaggeration. I went through and smelled all 20 of them, but that was about the extent of it. I would love to use them,…

Stupid Job Market
Just a post to see how many of you are working in a job that has nothing to do with your degree. I don't know how the job markets are around you, but I know here in Indiana it has been very rough. In fact, of most of the people that I know who are my age, only those who got degrees in nursing now have full-time jobs in…

childhood memories survey
A "Childhood Memories" Survey. Why? 1. It's cold and snowy out and I'm stuck inside being bored. 2. It goes along with the theme of everybody's cartoon icons. 3. It's fun to read other people's answers. Here we go: * Where did you spend most of your childhood growing up? * What was the name of the street you grew up on? *…

Days Logged In Goals
I was just curious if anybody rewards themselves, even something small and silly, for continuous days logged in. Obviously, the weight-loss goals are where the bigger rewards go, but I feel like giving myself something small for a long stretch of days logged. This is only because I have a hard time sticking to anything, so…

Anybody feel weird with success?
Okay, nevermind. I don't think weird is necessarily the right word here. Today I reached my 20 lbs lost mark. (only 10 more to my goal!) That's been over about a 3 month span. It just feels, too easy. I haven't felt deprived of anything. I haven't necessarily been on a health food kick. I haven't cut out the occasional…

Photo Booth Funny Pics
I've realized that anytime I'm having a bad day, I just have to open up my Photo Booth pictures on my Mac.... you know, the ones you take that horribly disfigure and distort yourself, and it automatically brightens my day. So I thought maybe a thread of funny pictures would be fun. Go ahead and post yours ;)

Popping Ears
Let me start by saying that I do not have a head cold. Lately, whenever I'm in the middle of an intense workout, my ears start popping and cracking. It gets really annoying, like to the point today that I gave up in the middle of the workout because of it. Anybody have a clue what could be causing it?

What gift do you want?
I saw a thread on here asking people's wish lists for Christmas, but they were fitness themed. I figured I'd see what people are wanting of any category. (I admit, I may have slightly selfish reasons. I'm trying to compose my own list for people and am stumped for ideas) :)

Stupid addicting games
It all started back in the day with a little game I like to call Snood. Then came Bloons. Then Diner Dash. Then there was Bubble Spinner. Currently? Clusters. (Can't beat level 21! Been stuck for 3 days now, lol) *....sigh....* If only you could burn calories playing silly computer flash-type games. Anyone else have this…

Keith Urban - Get Closer
Hey Keith fans! Just wondering what you guys think of this newest CD? I for one, can't stop listening to it :) Personally, I think he's one of the most underrated performers out there. His guitar skills alone should be recognized, and yet he's always getting jipped out of awards! Okay, done ranting and back to listening :)

Useless memories.
So I thought it would be a fun thread to ask this question: "What is some useless piece of information that you can remember from your past that serves no real purpose to recall?" For instance: I'm 25, but for some reason I can remember the last Barbie doll I ever received before I became too old to play with them. It was…

What small accomplishment have you made recently?
I remember when I first started doing my Zumba Cardio Party DVDs. The first time through, I don't even think I made it through the DVD. Awhile later, I would collapse on the ground and lay there for a good while after it was over, haha. Well, today... I got to the point where I decided to add a little extra to my work-out…

I need to re-train my thinking
My poor hubby. When I'm dieting and he asks me about how everything is going, inside I automatically think "Oh, so he must think I really need to diet. He's making sure i'm sticking to it." When he asks me how my weight loss success has gone, I automatically think "Uh huh. He thinks i'm fat and wants to know how much I've…

Looking back...
The other day I came across pictures from prom. I could not believe how skinny I looked in them. When I was in high school I was always self conscious and felt overweight. Most of the girls my age were twigs. I looked healthy. In fact, I'd go back to that weight in a heart beat! Isn't it sad when you take for granted what…

they should rename the love handles
..... because I'm not loving them! :P I know diet and good cardio routines are important for losing weight, but... just wondered if any of you have good specific exercises or information about how to work on getting rid of the love handles. Thanks for any help you guys may add.
