What Do You Put In Your Omelette?
I want to make some stellar omelettes in the morning. But the thing is, I don't know what to put in them, other than cheese. Actually, I don't even know how to make one. But I can make a scrambler! [: Note: Allergic to tomatoes.

Exercise while Sunburnt?
My mind is telling me no. But my body, My body's telling me yeeeeeehessss. Okay, now that I got that out of the way. Anyone think it's okay to exercise with sunburnt legs or should I keep off of them for fear of the extra body heat causing some pretty intense pain? (I've got a zumba class tonight that I want to go to but…

How do you keep yourself distracted?
I work a 9-5 and my eating is just fine (for the most part) when I'm at work. But when I get home and have the house to myself, sometimes I end up snacking far beyond what I should. Anyone have any tips on how to keep yourself distracted from eating when you're home alone?

Back again!
I lost about 60 pounds using mfp in the past but due to horrible circumstances including the loss of my brother, I fell into a depression and gained it all back, plus about ten extra pounds. I'm back to losing again and could use as much motivation as possible! Feel free to add me. :)

Tried to change it up a little.
I figured since that description and image hasn't been updated since the group was started, I should probably update it. What do you guys think? Any suggestions?

Prevent the Binges!
I know that the BEST way to prevent binges, is obviously to make sure you don't get exposed to the binge-triggering foods; but I think another good way to prevent the binging is to keep yourself busy. What are some things you do to keep yourself from over-eating? I like to: -Dance -Go for a walk. -Read. -Watch "I Used to…

...Can a hookup turn into something more?
I just want everyone's opinion. Do you think that a casual hookup could ever turn into something else? (Back story for anyone that cares) -I met this guy about a year ago. Him and I saw each other around a few times before we ended up hooking up. It has become a sort of re-occuring thing now. Whenever we're both single and…

I Need Your Opinion! (Outfit choice.)
Friday I'm going out with the guy I've been seeing and all his friends (whom I've never met) to celebrate his birthday. From what I've been told, we're going to a sports bar to watch the Red Wings game. I'm having a fit over what to wear! I'd like some opinions. I've got a couple ideas, though I'm not sure about them. I…

Any Other Ice Skaters?
I took up ice skating a few weeks ago and I fell in love with it. I definitely work up a sweat, regardless of the cold of the arena. I'm just wondering, does anyone else ice skate? Do you consider it exercise, or just a hobby? Thanks! [:

Welcome!
I sure do hope that with all of us working together, we can help each other overcome our binges! :)

What if...? (Goals)
If weight were not a measurement of progress, what would your ultimate goal really be? AND, what would your goal be if numbers in general were completely relevant? For me, my ultimate goal would be to be able to put on ANY exercise video, and complete the entire workout with no breaks. :)

Go Red Wings!
Is anyone as HUGE of a hockey fan as I am?! :D

Would This Be Weird?
Okay. So. Back story: saw a girl at the gym today. She had, hands down, the most toned legs I've ever seen in my life. I then saw her in the locker room, as we were both leaving at the same time. I wanted SOOOO bad to ask her what her routine was, because I strive to have legs like hers. Would that have been weird? How…

Date Ideas? (Meals, please!)
Okay, so I got one great idea from a friend (thanks!) but I'm looking for a few more ideas. Does anyone know of any good easy/cheap/low-cal meals for two? Looking to cook dinner for my man, and I'd like to prove to him that I actually CAN cook (or at least fool him). Thanks in advance! <3

Self-Control NSV
So I had my day all planned out. Perfectly balanced meals, plenty of protein, and under my calorie goal. I got to work and my boss brought cookies. I decided I would have one. Ate it, then checked the nutrition label. 240 whole calories! Damn. Well this wasn't much of a big deal, because my day was pretty low anyway. This…

"Starvation." (All opinions wanted!)
Do you (personally) think that it would be more detrimental to a person's health to eat only 500 calories per day, and no exercise OR to eat 1200 calories per day, and burn off 700 through exercise? (Both would leave a 500 calorie NET for the day.) Assume this person has a typically sedetary lifestyle. Opinions (backed by…

Want to Trade?
I have the EA Active 2 game for the wii, used once. I'm not digging it. I was thinking since it's just going to waste, maybe someone would like to trade? If you have a game, or dvd, or something you feel you'd like to trade, hit me up! (I've posted this on my status before, but no responses.)

Wii Fit Aerobic Workouts?
Does anyone have a sort of "plan" they do to get a decent workout on their wii fit?! I'm trying to come up with some ideas for workouts lasting about 20-30 minutes that I can do when I'm bored. :D Ones that will actually give me a decent burn. Do you have a good plan? Please share!! Thanks for any/all responses!!

I think we need a support group...
For those of us that have ONE specific part of their body that they absolutely HATE! I think everyone has something that they can't get over (or maybe they can), that seems to really affect their opinion of themselves. For me, it's my hip bones. No matter how much weight I lose, they will always be huge and sticking out.…

Anybody Else Afraid of Weigh-In Day?

Your Opinion on Gatorade?
Hey guys! I'm just wondering everyone's opinion on gatorade. Is it good to drink? Is it nutritional? Is it good enough to put into a healthy body? Does it fit into "clean eating"? Thanks! Kailee <3

My Worst Fear is Coming True.
That's right. I'm talking about the P-word. No, not pregnancy!! Plateau. Now, I've done enough reading that I know how to bounce myself out of it. But I'm just wondering, for those who have been stuck one a plateau before: -How long were you on it, how much weight had you lost, and what weight were you stuck at?- Also, if…

This isn't really very happy. Am I alone?
Is there anyone else that isn't really at all excited when they get to each mini-goal? I thought I'd be excited when I hit ONEderland, but all it did was make me think about how much more I had to lose. Today when I looked at my scale I was out of the 190's. Still wasn't near as excited as I thought I'd be. Am I the only…

Vitamin Experts: Help me!?
I know it's possible to overload on Vitamin C, but really, is it common? Let me give you the scoop, here. I'm sick, as always. I have a horrible immune system. I take a multi-vitamin every day. Today I picked up some Vitamin C chewables, and some Echinacea my pharmacist recommended. I also bought some Vitamin C drops for…

How Much Water Should You Drink?
Just a fun little calculator to tell you how much you should drink. I liked it. Told me I should drink 99.5 ounces. Which sounds about right. http://nutrition.about.com/library/blwatercalculator.htm
