Back To Finish Up
Hey fellow food freaks! I'm not necessarily new, but am trying to get back to maintaining accountability. I don't want to call this my New Year's resolution because I think those are matter from the back side of a bull and they've never worked for me. I got promoted at my job, but also moved back to night shift. My eating…

Dream Life
What would be your dream life? And try not to go with winning the lottery and being able to do whatever whenever. If you still had to work, what would you do? If you could live anywhere, where would it be? Who would it be with? That stuff.... I would love to have a popular blog or website and be a freelance writer, and…

I am bored
...and I should be entertained....somehow....but I'm tired of rating the person above me, or saying what their profile picture says...or trying to link 2 actors in 6 connections, and all that other blah blah blah blah

How Deep Do You Want It?????
If you were building a swimming pool for next summer? How deep would you want your pool? Some of y'all are very dirty minded ... and you know who you are...

I was doing real well....
It seems that I reached my first mini-goal by getting under 300lbs and then my motivation just packed its bags and hit the road. I want to get back on track and I don't know why I fell off. Everything was going so well. My eating is slowly starting to creep back to bigger portions, but I have got to start getting back to…

What Really Annoys you???
My pet peeve is when people don't know the difference between your/you're, to/too/two, their/there/they're, where/wear/we're/were, loose/lose. I also love it when someone posts something like, "your a dumb@$$."....wrong "your"...supposed to be y-o-u-'-'-r-e....AAAGGGHHH!!!!!!

GUYS ONLY!!! No girls, please!

My first goal reached this morning
I finally dropped out of the 300's and into the 200's. I can't lie and say I didn't have tears in my eyes. It has probably been at least 6 years since I have been in the 200's. I still have a road to travel to get to 200, but as long as I keep seeing progress, I'll keep walkin' that road. I can't express how glad I am that…

Did MFP Screw You Up?
MFP recently adjusted my calorie intake due to my weight loss. Now it seems harder to lose the weight and for the first time in almost 3 months I actually gained. Only a 1/2 pound so I'm not torn up about it, but it just seems that I had a hold on what I was doing before it got adjusted. Now I feel like I'm lost again.…

EMS NSV
So I worked yesterday at my part-time EMS job. I usually wear medium gloves because I like them to be tight in case I have to put on two pair. It also helps my dexterity a bit better. I can't stand medical gloves being too big...I can't feel anything and it's harder for me to grab things. Well, yesterday I noticed that the…

Bringin' Back The '80s!!!
Got this idea from a friend's post. What are some things you remember from the world of the 1980's? Clothes you wore, hairstyles, things you just HAD TO HAVE! Here are some of mine: 1 - slap bracelets 2 - tear jerker gum (used to sell it at school - $.50 per piece) 3 - Pump high tops 4 - Bon Jovi - Slippery When Wet album…

Quick, Easy, Healthy Weight Loss
THERE IS NONE!!!! Here's the secret. Eat right and exercise!!! I was at the pool yesterday with my gf. There was a woman there reading a magazine that should NOT have been in a bikini. She told her husband she needed this magnetic belt thing that would tone the muscles in her stomach without having to do exercises. Then…

I Need Advice
So, I work full time for the school system, part-time for an ambulance company, and under the table for a moving company. I used to be full time with the moving company until I needed to move on, but I still help them with big projects from time to time for some cash $$$. Anyways, my full-time job is a 9-6 job. I make ok…

What's a weird dream you remember
I meant to post this earlier but forgot. I had a dream last night that I bailed 2 girls our of jail and then went to take them to buy crack. :laugh: Then when we get out of the car this woman comes up to me and says that I don't look like I'm 19. Evidently one of the girls told her I was 19. I said I'm not, I'm 30. Then I…

Hardest Thing He Ever Had To Do
I was at the gym this morning on the elliptical and I see this guy walk in. He had to have been in excess of 400 pounds. WAY in excess. He couldn't get on any of the machines because of how big he was. But dammit he walked around the machines doing laps and then would sit down on the stairs after 1 or 2 laps. He would…

Things I Have Learned
The past 30 days (give or take a couple) have been the biggest learning experience of my life. I had just gone through two years of learning how to take care of other people (Paramedic School), but now I am learning how to take care of ME! The thing that irritates me is when people see me and ask what diet I'm on. Also,…

In Need of Advice
I mentioned to my GF that I was thinking about joining a gym and she wants to join too. However, my workouts are the only time I have to myself and selfish or not I wanna keep it that way, but she is gonna want to go with me. What would be the "nice" way of saying I would rather go by myself without it sounding suspicious…

Advice On Chain Gyms?
I have been using the weight room at my fire department so far. And although it is nice, not crowded, private showers when I'm done and need to get ready for work, plus I get to count my time there, I'm debating on joining a larger gym. I've been thinking about this because I would like to have access to more…

Heavy Balls
You're a sick-minded individual. I like that. Now send me a friend request. Just wondering if anyone works out with medicine balls and what you do with them. There are a couple in my fire dept's weight room and would like to utilize them, just don't really know of anything to do. Suggestions?

Insanity or 1,000 calories/day challenge?
I'm looking to change things up for the month of May. Just figured I would get some input from my fellow MFP'ers. What do y'all think I should do. Insanity or burning 1,000 calories a day?

New NSV
So, in the past day or two I have come to terms with the fact that the belt that I bought about 2 weeks ago is almost to the useless point. It is too big. My jeans that I bought about a month and a half ago are falling off my *kitten*. And for the first time in the 3 years that I have had my boots, I have had to tighten…

Fuel Prices
It is outrageous how bad the cost of fuel is. The bad part about it is that it drives the cost of EVERYTHING up!!! Here we all are, trying to make positive changes and I can hardly afford to do it. It is so much cheaper and easier to take advantage of the value menus at McDonald's or Burger King. The government is…

Burn More Than You Eat
I don't understand this concept. Maybe someone will put it into words that click with me. If my calorie goal for the day is 2,040 (or something like that) and I just burned 891 calores, that adds to be 2,931 calories. How much am I supposed to be burning? Today was actually supposed to be my rest day, but I got a wild hair…
