PSA: HR monitor by PEAR Sports
I know many people here may be in the market for a reliable HR monitor. Don't waste your money & time with one by PEAR. That is, unless you like to buy products that don't work at all (as in not even momentarily) from companies whose idea of customer support includes sarcastic replies to the frustrated emails* you send…

so where'd you get that gnarly scar?
I'm painfully bored at work so I thought I'd amuse myself by asking one of my favourite questions: What's your best scar and how did you get it? I haven't had any major surgeries or broken bones, but.. I have a pretty terriffic one on my left thigh, 3-4" long, from sliding down one of the stabilizing poles of a swingset…

Austinites: Tell me what to do
I don't invite direction often, so here's your chance :tongue: I'm headed to Austin, TX for the first time this week and need suggestions of things to do/places to go/bands to hear/etc. I've been doing my own research, but have been both disappointed and overwhelmed. Help me out! Oh, and I'm staying on E. 4th Street and…

letting them down easy
Maybe this has been discussed before, but the search function is apparently kind of a bust within a group. So. This may seem silly (if you knew my personality, even more so) but I'd like some advice on rejecting guys. Apparently I'm only the Tin Man til I have to turn down a dude who's expressed interest. So guys, in…

tell me what to do, lifters
Let me admit, first of all, that this post is partly about being lazy. I'm aware that I could search any number of posts, as well as Google, to get these answers. I have tried that. I've run out of patience and short on time. And I know there's a wealth of knowledge yet to be mined. So. Moving on... I'm a veteran strength…

Is that your phone in your pocket, or are you..
just kidding, that's awful. Inspired by another recent post. I'd like to hear the BEST ways you've been hit on. I think guys could use a little virtual pat on the back for doing this well (and I'm sure others need ideas). 1. I was leaving the Spokane airport when a cute TSA agent told me I had pretty hair, then asked where…

your favourite MFP-friendly, at-work lunch?
When it's warm (it's in the 70s here today) I absolutely love a big ol' salad with greens, celery, banana peppers, and a scoop of seafood salad. The perfect combination of soft/crunchy and sweet/spicy. Yum! What do you look forward to for lunch?

Poor grammar/spelling make me want to eat ice cream.
I get so annoyed when people post about "loosing" weight, or when I can't find a single piece of punctuation in an entire post. I'm sarcastic and snarky by nature, and I always want to reply with a smartass remark, but I refrain because I know people will actually get butt-hurt. I swear, it's going to drive me to binge…

Let's Be Friends?
Like many of you, I've done this weight loss thing before. Over the last year & 1/2 I have let nearly 30 lbs creep back on (laziness, almost 100% unhealthy eating... the usual). I've done quite well over the last couple of weeks since returning to MFP to take this thing seriously, but I could use some MFP pals for…

Motivation
So... yesterday didn't end well. Wayyyy over my calorie goal. Today I have a plan. Today will be better. I couldn't resist the 100-calorie bag of chocolate-covered pretzels. Not part of the plan. Now I will have to work 100 calories harder at the gym this evening to come out ahead. What I need is the motivation to GET to…
