Because I'm a Numbers Geek
And because we're celebrating 800+ members today, I wanted my 800th post to be here :bigsmile: Also, because most of my friends list is made up of Squiddies :laugh:

Headache NSV
I started this journey not only to look better, but also to feel better. At 32, I am far too young to feel tired all the time, get sore from a 1.5 mile flat stroll, and deal with aches and pains every day. The biggie was my headaches. Every day, I had a headache it seemed. They ranged from annoying (because it just really…

A weight lifted, old clothes NSV
Since the clothes that didn't even fit when I started are now comically baggy on me, I decided today it was high time to go through my closet and say so long to that part of my life :smile: It feels amazing to see those old clothes that represent a rather unhappy (with myself) time in my life all bagged up and ready to…

Need a good net nanny rec
What would you suggest as the best program for internet security for a kid's computer? Obviously we'll be monitoring him, but would rather be as safe as possible :smile:

Question for the married/long-term relationship folks
Do you guys have any subjects that you just agree to disagree on? I love my husband dearly but there are a couple of subjects that I KNOW, as soon as we start discussing them, he is going to go into a huge long ranty rant trying to convince me he's right, and we're just going to argue. So I've started heading him off at…

What do you eat now when you're nauseous?
It used to be crackers and Sprite, but I don't want either of those right now :frown:

Tim Burton's Dark Shadows
Why am I just now seeing a preview for this movie? What do you think - is it going to be good? Looks good to me! (But yeah, Johnny Depp, of course it looks good to me) http://screenrant.com/dark-shadows-trailer-images-sandy-159444/

What's bookmarked in your internet favorites
(Feel free not to incriminate yourselves :tongue:) Mine is full of various blogs and forums, everything from geek to cooking to parenting. I also have TONS of great recipes bookmarks (if only I could use them now!) And if you haven't already, check out Cake Wrecks at http://cakewrecks.squarespace.com/ I've been reading it…

Gals (guys too, if applicable :p) what color are your toenai
Mine are currently painted black, as they almost always are, but I'm thinking I'll go with bright pink in honor of the springy weather :flowerforyou: What's your fave toenail color?

Encourage me to eat, please.
I have netted less than 300 calories, and it is just after 4pm. I do not have an ED, but I have been down this road before and I k.ow it isn't good for me. I have lived on probably 6-800 calories per day for months at a time, but since I never get below 'normal' weight, all I get is positive reinforcement in the form of…

If you wake up hungry in the middle of the night
Do you get a snack? If so what? I don't usually have this problem but I woke up at 2am last night and could NOT go back to sleep. I finally realized I was hungry (sleepy brain fog, ok?) I got up at 4 and ate some walnuts, but I was still awake when my alarm went off at 6 :grumble:

For all the mothers/homemakers out there!
:laugh: I soooo know the feeling!

I need earbuds
That won't break after a couple of months! Right now I have some frogz I picked up at Wal Mart, but only one side is working :grumble: I also have freakishly small ears; most buds fall out even with the smallest cover. Cheaper is better :laugh:

Bananas are good for me but...
Every time I record one in my diary and see the sizes ranging from xs to xl, complete with inches, my mind just goes right in the gutter. Once I made that connection I just can't help it :laugh: Please tell me I'm not the only one!

Egg question: does it matter how it's cooked?
An egg is an egg is an egg, right? Barring added stuff like butter for frying or mayo for deviling, it doesn't matter if I eat an egg poached or boiled or poached or slurped down raw (eww!), right? There are like 29 different entries for boiled eggs and boiled egg whites, many with different nutritional values (whites are…

Bruising?
Anybody else find that they bruise more easily after cutting back? I've gotten several bruises recently in places that don't normally get bumped, like the inside of my wrist and the top of my foot. I have very fair skin, so they really look horrible! I do take aspirin daily for a blood clotting factor, but I have done that…

What's your totally VAIN goal?
We all want to live longer, feel better, be healthier, blah blah blah, but I know almost everyone has some specific goal in mind that is completely arbitrary but keeps them motivated nonetheless. Mine is a pair of jeans. Specifically, the jeans I wore one my first date with my husband 13 years ago. We went bowling. How…

Calorie goals versus range
If someone were to look at my food diary they would see that I rarely ever meet my calorie goal for the day. I have seen it said by some members that they don't like giving kudos to someone who was under their calorie goal for the day because they aren't following the guidelines laid out by MFP by eating less than they are…

Hey geek friends, hit me with some entertainment!
I'm bored with my usual online watering holes. Expand my horizons! Any geekery related to gaming, television, movies, or books is acceptable. With the exception of Harry Potter. It was fine the first time around, but I'm over it now. And for goodness sake, no Twilight!
-
When did you post progress pics?
Like a fool, I didn't take any proper 'before' pictures - all I have are candids my husband snapped when I wasn't looking because I have been avoiding cameras like the plague :laugh: Did you wait until you met your goal? Half way? Or did you update all along the way?

So anybody NOT watching the game today?
I've seen several posts already today about how to handle the Super Bowl parties and stay on track. No football fans in my house, so it's just a regular day for us. I feel like such an oddball! Although I guess our members who live anywhere other than the US aren't quite as interested in it either :smile:
