Things That Make You Irrationally Angry
Today I was reminded of how irrationally angry tootsie roll commercials made me as a child. Why did those stupid kids keep giving their suckers to that scammer owl? And that owl - what an a-hole! I hated all of them! Show some initiative, kids! If you want to know how many licks it takes to get to the center of your crappy…

Date decided I was too fat after getting naked
This is embarrassing. A couple of weeks ago a guy I'd been dating decided after seeing me naked got the first time that I'm too fat, and he doesn't find me attractive anymore. He did (helpfully) provide a list of the parts of me that ARE attractive (basically everything but my torso). His comments are really messing with…

What is the person above you up to tonight? Having a drink? Getting lucky? Or reading at home alone?

Thread Topics/Questions You Just Can't Even Anymore
What are the thread topics or questions that make you feel like you're about to lose it? For me, it's anything related to this:

Shaving Legs and/or Other Areas of Your Bod
How many of you shave your legs/face/underarms/special places ;) everyday? I hatehatehate stubble and will always shave my legs and underarms (unless I'm seriously ill, and even then I won't go more than a day). Anyone else hate the stubble as much as I do?

Dry Clean Only - Help me avoid being dirty, lol
I usually disregard the care instructions on my clothes and just do what I want, but I recently purchased some nice dresses that are dry clean only. :/ They're expensive (for me) dresses that I got on sale, so I don't want to destroy them, lol. How often do you guys dry clean your items? Do you just wash some of it? If so,…

Need help with running issue
When I run I feel like I'm swiveling my hips, so today I had someone watch me for my entire 30 minute run to see if I'm actually running funny. Turns out I'm kicking my feet out to the sides on each step, and this weird swivel-kicking was consistent for the entire run. My entire torso twists on each step (think squeezing…

Advice about weight lifting gloves
Today I noticed that I have little blisters from my weights forming on both of my hands. :\ I like for my hands to be soft, so I'm not really excited about this. I'm planning on buying some weight lifting gloves, but I'm not sure if there are different kinds. Do you use gloves, and if so which ones? I don't want to buy a…

Should I do my sad, pathetic "girl" pushups everyday?
I recently decided to start doing push-ups after my weights sessions and discovered that, despite my recent strength gains, I still cannot do an actual push-up. I started doing 3 sets of 20 "girl" push-ups 3-4 times a week after my strength training in the hopes that I could build up to real push-ups. Lately I've been…

Why aren't troll posts on MFP bingo?
This seems like an oversight. :frown: Oh, well. It's still fun! :drinker:

People who do squats
Okay, so I've been doing goblet squats when I do my strength training, but I've been thinking of doing squats everyday instead of every other day. Do I need a rest day between squats if I'm using weights? Does it matter if I'm using weights or not? I mean, should I only use the weights on days that I do strength training…

A note about whey protein powders
I debated about posting this and decided to go ahead. For several weeks I experienced stomach issues (bloating, cramping, nausea, bathroom fun, the whole shebang) that seemed to be worsening. A few times I thought that I might have food poisoning, but it didn't make sense that I could be getting food poisoning several…

Pain while/from running
Hi everyone. I have been working out consistently for over ten weeks now doing cardio and strength training. For the first 7-8 weeks most of my cardio was walking, though I also played some tennis (I played in high school and have periodically as an adult) and did some high impact aerobics. I began jogging occasionally…
