THANK GOD FOR APPLES!
I just finished P90X Plyometrics and I'm sitting here sinking my teeth into this red delicious apple and I realize how awesome apples are. They are really good for you (both vitamins and fiber) and they rehydrate you with the juices while being one of the most delicious flavors ever. CAN I GET A HELL YEAH FOR APPLES?!?!

I'm slumpin'
NOTE: THIS POST IS PART VENTING, PART REQUESTING HELP AND PART SUCCESS STORY. Lately I've been on basically a zero exercise routine except for a 2.5 mile run on Saturdays. I feel like a bum, please yell at me and whip me into shape :) Haha. I'm trying to get back on the 5 a.m. cardio routine I was on until about a month…

How do you pack your fruit/perishables?
Hey everyone, I want to start cutting out the sugary granola bars at lunch and replacing them with fresh fruit. I chopped up a bunch of strawberries and bananas and mixed them up with some blackberries, orange slices and grapes. However, I can't use an ice pack to keep them from going bad during the six hour period between…

Crazy @$$ Diet I Heard About
Okay. Since my mother and I were talking about exercising (as weird as that may or may not be), she told about this diet that her boss (my ex-boss) and the secretary at work are doing. So here it is: They eat one serving vegetables with water four times a day for three weeks, then after three weeks they add in one serving…

First Outdoor Run of the Year!
Hey all, It has been a while since my last message board post but the occasion calls for one today. It was finally warm enough to go for a run outside tonight and I was hoping to get some feedback on my results. After all the indoor cardio I've been doing since I started using MFP, I completed my first (and fastest) mile…

Need some opinions...
I have found myself cheating a bit lately. Not etremely, but I'm eating the amount of calories to maintain my current weight about three days a week and it's slowing down my weight loss. So, I made a list of ways to get back on track and I came up with this: In order to curb my recent binges, I plan on drinking two glasses…

Anybody want a good workout playlist?
Alright, I did some googling and some poking around and found some great songs that are extremely fun to workout with. Here's my new playlist for the time being. Some are older some are newer but they all kick @$$ and can be found on playlist.com. Enjoy! BTW: It's mostly rock-based so not really intended for hip-hop…

Favorite Songs to Workout To?
The music on my iPod is getting a bit dated and I'm looking to get some fresh tracks on it. So if you could pick JUST TWO SONGS to listen to for every workout for the next 6 months, what would they be?

I Can't Believe This Is Happening!
I've always been the chubby kid my entire life and as it turns out I became a "husky" man...as my mother calls it. To be honest, 270 pounds is a little past husky. Haha. I first started counting my calories and making sure I wasn't overeating in December 2010. I then found MFP in either late December or early last month.…

How much have you really lost?
I'm new to MFP as of today, I switched from MyNetDiary because it wanted money for all the good reports and stuff. I was just wondering, because I have been serious about losing weight for about three months, how accurate are the calculations on MFP? When your "My Home" says you lost a certain amount of pounds, is it close…
