First 4 weeks done! Down 2lbs and 2 1/2 inches (pics)
Hello! I'm really pleased with my one month results. Looking at the schedule I have posted on my wall, another 16 weeks seems so daunting but since I'm already shrinking and it's only been 30 days, that gives me encouragement to keep going! I've only lost a couple of pounds this month but over all in inches I've lost 2…

Bunions and exercise... Running Shoe advice in Seattle area?
Hello all. I feel like an old woman at 29 years old! I have bunions forming on both feet and have for a couple of years, but since I upped my exercise to 6 days a week my left big toe joint's been bugging the crap out of me.

How about a weekly chat thread? Mon 1/28 to Sun 2/3
I think what this group is missing is a general weekly chat thread. To talk about whatever. TF..... life... funny things... whatever. It's a great way to get to know eachother on here. Being such a large group though, I don't know how well it'll turn out. Let's see if anyone responds!! I'm Starla, I live in washington…

A used set that's missing the fire 45. MISSING THE FIRE 45!!!…

"active" vs. "lightly active"
How would you define active and lightly active? I hate the vague descriptions MFP gives.... It should be defined by how many steps you take in a day. I get about 8,000 steps naturally during my workday.... active or lightly active? My first six months on MFP I used lightly active but weight loss was incredibly slow. I'm…

What do you guys think about a refurbished 8gb iphone 4 for $50? With a discount through my contract I can get one at that price through At&t.

low sodium protein powder or shakes?
I'm really trying to cut down on my sodium intake- i'm too often going over 2500 a day. I think an easy way to cut a few hundred would be to change my pre and post exercise protein shake. I'm a fan of atkins pre-mixed protein shakes mostly because they're EASY! I have one either before or after working out or half before…
