Beef vs Pork
So I just set up one of my recipes for a stew that I make in my recipe list. It actually had been there but it needed revising as I have change the way I prepare it. Also, I set up a second almost duplicate recipe because sometimes I like to use pork stew meat rather than beef stew meat. Then I realized that a lb of pork…

Smurfs could truly be real!
Benjamin "Benjy" Stacy so frightened maternity doctors with the color of his skin -- "as Blue as Lake Louise" -- that he was rushed just hours after his birth in 1975 to University of Kentucky Medical Center. As a transfusion was being readied, the baby's grandmother suggested to doctors that he looked like the "blue…

I miss my friends!

Alright...
Who broke MFP??? Hmm... can we somehow blame taunto for this one? Well anyway, if you didn't see it on Facebook, they said they are working on it and will have it fixed soon. So no more whining!

Is it trolling if sarcasm is blatantly obvious?

Does anyone have delayed sleep onset?
Melatonin isn't working as well as it used to. I need some new strategies for shutting my brain off at bedtime. I usually watch TV, and then shower and follow my usual hygiene routines before bedtime. I do not watch TV or listen to music or read in bed. But I have made a habit of playing with my phone in bed so that may be…

In for the ridiculous condemnation of...
We see it all the time in the forums. This food is bad... that food is bad. And usually supported with some terrible anecdotal evidence or poorly collected data from a coorelational study. Coorelation =/= Causation. But the truth is food is just food with varying levels of nutritional benefit. My favorite condemned food,…

Spousal abuse from a male perspective
Heavy topic... but I'm curious. Are there any men out there that will admit to having been abused by their wife (or ex-wife)? How did it affect you? Did you get therapy? Are you still affected by it? How did it affect your future relationships if you are divorced?

Supplementing protein
Sometimes I will have a scoop of whey in my oatmeal for breakfast, a couple of protein bars as snacks, and a whey protein shake before bed. I would say that I am supplementing anywhere between 30% to 50% of my protein intake. But if I tried to get my protein from whole foods, I would never make my protein goal. How much is…

Looking for help with routine
I do a full-body workout twice a week. I'm thinking of modifying it and I'm just looking for opinions. I don't think what I've been doing is too much, but I would love to hear your thoughts. Now bear with me, because I don't really know how to communicate in "lifting language". Anyway, I have dumbells, a barbell, and a…

Squatting and pressing
So... I workout at home. I do not have a squat bar so I'm generally squatting no more than I can press. I am really lacking in strength in my arms, but I'm satisfied with the strength in my legs. I do squats because they make me a little more shapely and they add to my overall calorie burn. Also, I have osteoarthritis in…

How do I stop over-analyzing it!!
This is my downfall. I'm not quite sure how I ever actually managed to get in a relationship (divorced and a couple of long terms) before because I study every little thing the guy does trying to get in his head and figure out what is going on in there. I know it annoys the guy. Hell, it annoys me. But I just can't seem to…

Open-mindedness.... And the lack of it!
The concept is pretty simple. We all came here because we wanted to change something about our bodies. Obviously, whatever you were doing before coming here wasn't working. MFP offers this great social aspect that provides us with the opportunity to learn from others who have achieved success. The problem is that too many…

How to dress up a pot roast...
So all my life, I have always loved a good old-fashioned pot roast in the crockpot, but my daughter informed me last night that she thinks they are boring. I use some good seasonings, a nice piece of meat, and a few vegetables. Is there something that I could add to make it more interesting? Any suggestions?

Lunges
I struggle with these due to the arthritis in my knees. Because of the weakness in the joint, I'm not sure I am doing them correctly. Can you describe the proper form for a lunge and possibly post links or pics if you have any handy?

My cat is bulky and it's gross...
I really need some help. My kitteh has really been working out hard, but he's gotten all bulgy and bulky. It's really gross, but I don't know how to tell him. Here's a pic.
