Disciplining your child
Touchy subject sometimes but do you think it's ok to spank your child? My parents spanked me when I was a kid (only when I deserved it of course) and actually not very often because the promise of a spanking or an "I am disappointed in you" would work after that. I know one thing that I dislike as far as punishment goes is…

What a healthy lifestyle can do for you
I am an x ray tech and I had a patient come in one day who was roughly around 67. I asked him to take his shirt off for the x ray. OMG I was frickin blown away, this guy had a body like a 35 year old and I am not even close to kidding. Wasn't even wrinkly nice and taute, picture Hugh Jackman with less chest hair. I…

Anyone seen the movie Two Days with Paul Rudd
I really liked this movie and thought it was very different and though it is a darker subject surpisingly light hearted. Paul Rudd plays a failed movie actor who is doing a documentary of his own suicide. Sounds dark and depressing doesn't it..........it's not, it's really a great movie. I have just never met anyone else…

friend driving me crazy what would you do?
So I have a friend, now we are not close friends. She is kind of one of those people that you like to hang out with but after too long she really gets on your nerves.

Reality Shows
Do you love them or hate them? Personally I can't stand watching people act like drunken *kitten* to each other, and I wish snooki would get some kind of alcohol poisoning real soon. I mean **** she's only like 4'11 she's probably already had it 7 times, we just need one to stick. Don't like my opinion? Bring it on *****es!

Flash Mobs
So lately there have been a rash of flash mob robberies at convenience stores. 20-30 teenagers will roll into a convenience store and they just start taking whatever they can and overwhelming the cashier.

God I can't ****ing stand them. Don't ask for someones opinion when you have no plan of using or taking it. I just can't stand it when women let men treat them like crap (or vice versa) and want to ***** to all their friends and damn strangers about it, and then do absolutely nothing. It's like they like to be pathetic and…

Ionic wrist bands
Anyone try these and feel like they worked for them? Personally I do not believe that they work, I do believe in the possibility (very slight possibility) of a Placebo effect from them but maybe only for a few true believers.

question about calorie distribution
So a UK mfp pal and I sent each other a box of yummy treats and staples. I got into this box last night haha and went over my calorie limit, so I decided to use my calories for today on my calories from last night. So I am fasting until dinner. Is this a horrible thing to do just for one day. I am not that hungry anyway…
