Cholesterol and tasty food
Doctor jumped down my throat today about my LDL being 120, said I can't eat more than 2 eggs a week, no pork, red meat only once a week :sad: :sad: :sad: I know I've heard and read anecdotal evidence that dietary cholesterol doesn't impact blood cholesterol as much as was previously suspected. I tried googling, but just…

Difference between a Yankee and a G--Damn Yankee
If the only difference between a Yankee and a G--Damn Yankee is a U-Haul, what happens when the U-Haul does a U-Turn? Can the that person be considered a Yankee once again, or are they forever relegated to being "That G--Damn Yankee"? This G--Damn Yankee would love to know what you born and bred southerners think!

moon moon
Please tell me I'm not crazy and I'm not remembering this wrong. There was at one point a thread of nothing but "moon-moon" pictures, a goofy, derpy, wolf with hilarious captions. I cannot seem to find it, and damn I need a laugh today. I've tried the search function, and all I'm getting is Sailor Moon and Super Moon. Does…

Personal trainer: worth it or not?
Had a consultation today with a personal trainer, and now I'm trying to decide if it's worth the money. Can I afford it? Yeah, if I don't mind not having a date night with my partner and cutting down on a few other really small things that I don't HAVE to have. It'd be stretching the dollar to the point it can't go much…

August 25th exercise
Hey everyone Since today officially marks the 4-month to go mark, I have to ask: what have we done for exercise today? Today, I played baseball (including base running!) for 90 minutes with my other half. MFP calculated it as 687 calories burned, but because I've learned the hard way to never trust this site's…

Dealing with cravings
I ate lunch about 30 minutes ago, so I know I'm not really hungry. I am sooo badly craving all my favorite comfort foods. Fried chicken. Mac & Cheese. Mashed Potatoes. Pizza. Hot fudge Sundae. Like I could seriously eat all of them in one sitting, as gross as it sounds. Of course though, I'm at work and don't have a…

recovery after surgery
Hi all I had an emergency appendectomy on Feb. 20th and had a nice long 5 night stay in the hospital as a result. Well, two weeks later, as a result of not being able to eat the absolutely horrid hospital food and not having any appetite at all when home, I'm down 9 lbs and feel like absolute crap and weak. Now that I'm…

Cake for lunch
Forgot my lunch at home, and well, I was starving. Coworker had a birthday, so ate some cake. He says his wife made it with very little butter (half the amount that the recipe calls for) and used Splenda instead of sugar. At least I won't COMPLETELY regret it. How should I try and record this? Should I google a basic…

Being overweight is good? Wait, what?
I heard on the radio that apparently a study had come out saying overweight people live longer. http://www.npr.org/blogs/health/2013/01/02/168437030/research-a-little-extra-fat-may-help-you-live-longer I've also been seeing quite a few people on facebook posting things like "Don't tell me I'm fat, that's "fat shaming" me!"…
