When companies admit their mistakes: Awesome!
Shutterfly sent my wife an email congratulating her on her new baby. There was no new baby. Two days later she got another email from Shutterfly apologizing for the error.

Friend Updates: Every Time they respond to a thread?
Is there a way to turn that off? I think it is turned off for when I respond to one so it doesn't post to their walls but is there a setting that will turn it off so I don't see everyone else's?

Thinking of shaving my beard
To see how many chins are still visible. It has been a LONG time since I was clean shaven and I don't know if my wife has ever actually seen me without a beard. If I do decide to go for it straight razor old school shave might be the way I let it go. Anyone ever had one of those before? I will be growing it back quickly as…

Worried I am losing too quickly
So today is the 55th day I have logged into MFP, and as of my weigh in yesterday I have gone from 253 to 229.6. So just over 23 pounds lost thus far.

Coworkers and Weird Email Habits
I have a few people I work with that always use way too many ... in their emails. Like one guy sent me a reply with Thanks... I don't think he knows how to use ellipsis properly. Is there something unsaid after that Thanks?

Things you wish you had done or been? Just for the stories

Recommend your perfect exercise album: Not a mix
If you had to listen to one album by any band while exercising what would that album be? You can obviously have different albums for different exercises like walking versus powerlifting One that was perfect for a walk a couple of nights ago for me: Beth Orton "Central Reservation"

TMI discussion: Poop talk
Since eating less and cutting out all the fried crap, keeping track of what I am eating, drinking a ****ton more water, and adding exercise, one thing I was not expecting has happened: Pooping WAY less than I used to.

Saying goodbye to gas station cappucinos :(
I've never been a big coffee drinker (for years I had a giant soda every morning which of course added to my weight drastically) but over the past couple of years I have grown to love gas station French Vanilla Cappucino. The ones where you hold down the button and it is so obviously full of fake crap that your body starts…
