Favorite Sitcoms?
All right folks, let's hear it. I have two favorites: King of Queens and Everybody Loves Raymond. I own all 9 seasons of KoQ and can pretty much quote it verbatim. I'm working on the same level of command with ELR. Both of my favorite shows are now off the air, which is a bummer. Honorary mention would have to go to…

Was MFP your introduction to weight loss/new lifestyle or...
...had you lost weight before joining? Just curious. Before joining MFP last month I had already lost about 40 lbs (SW: 285, CW: ~250, GW: 200); I now have approximately 50 more to go before I reach my goal. After losing about 30 lbs of those initial 40 I joined WW, but after a few months of that I got the idea down pat…

Clif Bars?

Hello from Oklahoma!
Greetings all, I'm a 28 year old male who's just made the switch from WW to MFP. I'm well on my way to my goal (started at 285, goal is 200, currently at 251...but have been here for a while and looking to get serious about weight loss/lifestyle change). I had to leave WW because the wife and I are trying to save a little…

What are some of your favorite outdoor exercises?
Now that spring is FINALLY starting to show up (it's in the low 80's here finally), what are some of your favorite outdoor exercises? Personally, I enjoy riding my bike and brisk walking. In the winter I still walk a good 1-2 miles (sometimes more) a day but I put the bike away from about October - March/April, so I'm…
