Hey old friends!!
I had to stop over and give a shout to this group! I was a member here on my old MFP account and recognize many of your names! I know that while I was here, I was in the best shape of my life and the encouragement and challenges kept me going. I made a change in my hobbies that required me to sell my carbon road bike - I…

I am starting 21 Day Fix today. Got chastised for it.
Hi everyone..I'm new to this group. I posted a thread or in the main motivation and support section asking if anyone else was starting the program on Jan 1. I immediately was told it's a waste of my money and I have to change my attitude and now the thread got deleted. Is this a safe place to talk about it? Why the hate?

Is the founder of this group still on MFP?
I'd like to know if SAMB the creator of this group is still on MFP. If not, I wonder if we can get the admins to add a new moderator to the group so we can keep it going and try to get it more active in here?

What's our 2014 horse related goals?
The difference between a dream and a goal is having a plan. What are your goals for 2014? I've always dreamed about competing in distance riding so I put a plan in place last summer and I'm slowly going to reach my goal to compete in my first ride in May. I truly believe its not fair for me to condition my horse while…

Tell me about Running cadence...
I bought a foot pod to track my speed/distance on the dreadmill but now I see from garmin connect that it gives me cadence as well. What's an ideal cadence? I know in biking what that is and why it helps you, but I'm not sure about running.

Bluetooth HRM recommendations for use with Iphone 5s
I have a garmin 310xt with a HRM but when I'm out riding horse, that's dedicated to capturing my horse's heart rate. So..I was thinking about getting a second heart rate monitor strap to use via Bluetooth with my iPhone 5s. I use Strava, MapMyFitness, and Endomondo for apps so ideally I want something that works with all…

Anyone in the DietBet 6 month Transformation Jan-July?
I just dropped $145 on a 6-month long diet bet.. I have to lose 10% by June 7th which should be no problem at all...that's less than 1 lb/week. I refuse to LOSE MONEY so this will be a huge motivator. I'm guaranteed to get my money back if I succeed, and depending on how many other folks succeed, I will actually win a…

Setting a realistic target weight?
For YEARS I've attached the same number as my target weight - yet I haven't been there since before my 10 year old son was born. (Granted, I haven't tried very hard to get there) I've researched it quite a bit and have looked at my age, my height, my bone structure, etc. I'm just wondering how you know if it's realistic or…

Black Ice air freshener argument - i'm out of ideas!
We own 3 vehicles. The Loser Cruiser Van that my hubby drives to work 15 miles, a Dodge truck that is used for plowing snow, towing the toys and horses, and a car that I drive to work. On occasion, I have to drive the truck or loser cruiser to work. Within 15 minutes, my eyes are burning, my lungs hurt, and its all I can…

My daily Internal dialogue - need some tough love
I've been on again - off again with my committment to losing weight. It's tiring and infuriating, yet I can't seem to stop the cycle. I've never met my goal weight - something always derails me. Today I decided to write down my typical daily internal dialogue. I have no idea if this will help or not, but it's something.…
