Clams/Oysters/Shellfish
Some vegans are okay with eating these as they do not have a central nervous system and are therefore thought to be "sentient," i.e. incapable or feeling pain or emotion. Thoughts?

Vegan MFPers: What do you eat for breakfast?
As I lift 5 days a week, I like my breakfast to be full of protein and therefore usually default to greek yogurt or egg whites - neither of which are animal-free. Very much wanting to decrease and eliminate these products from my diet, but unsure of what to replace them with.

Anyone using Nike+ technology?
I bought a new pair of nikes for running. They are apparently compatible with the Nike+ running app. Do i need the fuleband in order to sync the shoes to my app? or can the shoes be used in PLACE of the band?

Post your favorite exercise vids
I've been doing 30 day shred but am getting a little bit tired of it and know i risk giving up on it if I don't mix it up a bit and start alternating between other videos. I did Jillian's yoga meltdown last night. Tonight I am doing Ripped in 30 (although it looks SUPER similar to the 30DS, it will at least provide some…
