Gym Etiquette - Vent
Just had to vent....there's a guy at the gym who is there every morning. Wearing a ton of gold chains around his neck and wearing enough god-awful cologne to choke us all out (and make me wonder if he's hiding something). He's generally a douche, but we all ignore him for the most part. I'm at the gym yesterday doing my…

Broke Up With My Trainer :(
I had a PT for the past year, who has since become my husband's training partner (they are both competitive bodybuilders). I had my last session with him this morning, and it was bittersweet. He knew he had taught me everything he could, and it was a waste of my money to continue paying him. But we built a great rapport…

"If every day were like today, you'd weigh..."
Question about this little statement on food diary. Every single day, after I log my food, MFP tells me that I should weigh XX weight in 5 weeks. Every single day, that number is usually 5 - 7 pounds less than what I currently weigh. I work out 5 -6 days a week on top of logging my food. I am trying to use the TDEE-20%…

Trainers! Question About Injured Forearm...

Over the past weekend, my husband and I were clearing and mowing our property (5 acres worth!) and I pulled/sprained my forearm lifting a big rock out of the ground. I didn't really notice it until late yesterday afternoon, and…

Watch out for Quacks!
Seriously, this was the funniest, weirdest and grossest thing ever...I just have to share. I'm in the loacker room at the gym this morning, almost done getting ready to leave, I'm packing up my bag and getting dressed. I hear this weird smacking sound from around the corner and lean over to see a woman running in place in…

Speaking of Groceries
Sam's Club vs. Costco...which is better? I'm currently a member of Costco, don't know much about Sam's Club...but recently moved to an area that has one. Was just wondering which people prefer and why? Is one better than the other from the standpoint of price, quality, customer service, etc?

REALLY Struggling to Hit Daily Calories
Hey all, I need some ideas for foods that I can eat to get my calorie count up. Right now, I burn roughly 500 - 650 calories a day in exercise (depending on how much cardio I do vs. weight training). I currently try to only eat back 1/2 those calories, just so I can see how my body reacts and to account for any errors in…

Yello~!!
Hey everyone, New to MFP, and love it so far. I have been on and off the healthy lifestyle for years. My husband has always been fit, but I struggle....I am a TOTAL foodie. And it is really hard to reconcile that with a healthy diet. Additionally, I had another baby nearly 2 years ago (my first is 20~! Needless to say, the…
