Years here
I was one of the OG members here back in 2008 when you pretty much actually new everyone on it, in addition to the creator of MFP! It was before it was made an app (pretty sure “apps” didn’t even exist back then unless you wanted appetizers! LOL) Sadly, I need to get my flabby butt back in gear! Just stopped in to say HI!

No, too bozo looking for me. What can I do? I just want to dye it back to brown. I was trying to get rid of the grays and got something…

Need help! Arguing with husband on pasta
Can you tell me how you add your pasta? If I have a little over a cup of cooked pasta with sauce, I'll enter 4 servings of 2oz. pasta. But he said, that that is the dry calculation and it's impossible, that if I cooked a pound of pasta, and it's 16oz, that I at half of it. Which is right, b/c I didn't... he had a big bowl,…

Say Hello To My Little Friend.....
my size 6 jeans! woo hooo!!!!!! I OWNED 1 PAIR OF 10'S, NEVER OWNED A PAIR OF 8'S, LET ALONE 6'S!!!! (maybe when I WAS 6!) It's been a long 10 months. I can only take off around 4 pounds a month. Which is what it averages out to. I would lose 1, then nothing, lose 2, then nothing for 3 weeks, gain 1, lose 2 and so on and…

not new here, but back and disgusted
Hi all I am so mad at myself. 2 years ago I looked GOOD, thanks to MFP. Well, I stopped smoking and stopped logging my food, and stopped watching what I put in my mouth, and low and behold, 30 pounds back on. I'm going to be 40 at the end of May and I can't be this disappointed in myself when I turn it. So hopefully, I can…

25 TO LIFE February
Starting a new year, starting a new thread! I started this thread in March of last year. It kind of had 2 meanings for me. 25 to life, playing off a jail sentence, which is what I felt like. I was stuck in my own body being weighed down and not being able to get out. And the second meaning.... if you've got 15, 20, 25, 30…

OT - PRAYERS NEEDED for mother in law
She was just notified that she needs a full hysterectomy and has Clear Cell Endometrial (?) She is having more tests done. I was thinking of a large group for a prayer circle (church yes,) but I figured I'd get more out of this large group, even if you read this, and just say... "I'm praying for Charlotte, that she makes a…

A little nudge Email... Thanks Mike
Well, I have to say that I haven't been on much. I'll come on and read, but haven't logged my food in months. I started to the other day, and didn't finish. Then today going through my emai I get an email from MFP giving me a little nudge and support to get back on there and track my food. That was kind of nice. Maybe…

WHAT!? WHAT? Oh no they didn't!
So, I went into Goodwill yesterday to see if they had some kind of furniture to fit my shoe fetish (he he!) Couldn't find anything, so as I was about to leave I passed the jeans/pants roundabout and say, hmmmm, let's see what they have there. :ohwell: So I found a couple of DKNY, Banana Republic, Gap and some other great…

My Dog Needs Your Prayers!
Today, my dogs legs collapsed underneath her. I rushed her to the emergency vet where they had to get her out of my truck with a gurney and I spent 2.5 hours there. She had chest x-rays and bloodwork done. She is exhibiting signs of vestibular disease. The tests that were performed were normal, but they are concerned that…

Dance Dance Revolution
Anyone else do DDR for their exercise? I do the workout mode for about an hour and burn about 400 calories (which is what the tv says) personally, I think it's more. Considering how out of breath I am by the end! It's very addictive. Then I turn my radio on, grab my hand weights and dance and workout my arms for 20 minutes…

Joined the gym once again
Okay, so I finally got my butt over to the Y to sign up. First I signed up, because my son will be going into afternoon kindergarten (yeah) and the Y offers a program in his school before his class (he gets to go on the morning bus and everything, and they transfer him to his class) and I get a cheaper rate if he's a…
