Your S/O said what?!
Ladies...gentlemen... if your significant other tells you that you need to lose weight, put their *kitten* to the curb! I see so many people on here, especially women, saying how their fiancé (the "man" they're going to marry!) basically belittles them on a day-to-day basis. Ladies, don't settle!!

You burned how much?!
Don't get me wrong, I love to see that people are working out or doing some sort of activity, but....I do hate when people say, "I just cleaned HARDCORE" or "I just went on a walk for an hour" and they burned almost 600 calories? I mean, I'm not a beast or anything, when I work out it's only for a half hour at a pop right…

What do you think about when…

GROCERY SHOPPING LIST FOR HEALTHY MEALS
Hi all. So, I went to the store today and wanted to shop for groceries to make healthy meals - I came out with feta cheese and some Special K waffles and a few other things, but nothing to make healthy meals with!
