Making the Most out of Gym Time
Good morning, I typically run for my cardio exercise but as the weather begins to get cold and rainy, I've decided to start taking advantage of the free gym at my college. I work on campus and I get an hour and a half break, which allows me for about an hour's worth of actual exercise and a half hour of…

Five Napkin Burger
Good morning! Has anyone on MFP ever been to Five Napkin Burger? They have locations in Atlanta, Boston, and New York City. My friends and I are going there tomorrow but I have no idea what I should order, or if I should just skip out and go somewhere else while they eat. Here's a link to their menu.…

Lifestyle Change?

I don't think I'm very sedentary anymore. Class is only about two hours, two days a week and the rest of the time I'm studying at home or doing chores. There's a…

Jogging (Sort Of)
Hi everyone! Today I went out for a bit of jogging. Being that I'm no expert, I found myself breaking the session into spurts of jogging, combined with periods of fast walking. I'm not sure if I should log this in my diary as jogging or just walking really fast, or break it into 15 minute sessions of each (I was out for 30…

Iced Coffee
Hi everyone! First post here :] I'm a coffee addict. I typically get by with hot coffee, skim milk, and one sugar. However, it's getting really warm here and I love iced coffee. But I noticed that the big chains like McDonald's and Dunkin Donuts all have iced coffee with a butt ton of calories. Does anyone know why this…
