African mango supplement?
Does anyone know anything about this African mango supplement, Mango Trim Ultra? A friend of mine sent me a link to look at and there are a bunch of testimonials but I don't know if this is just some "magic pill" like so many others claim to be. Anyone try it before? How well did it work?

I'm sure it's been asked before, but how do I get pictures into my posts? I can't copy and paste. Thanks....

Treadmill recommendation
Hi folks, I'm looking to purchase an affordable treadmill as a Christmas present. Does anyone have any suggestions? I see a bunch of them on Ebay but without actually seeing them it's hard to tell just how good they are. Preferably under $300. Thanks....

Hey gang, several of my local friends here are looking to plan a local get together so we can spend some time with all the great locals from our area and share successes, setbacks and stories with each other.

Pet Peeves
A big part of my fitness program is my daily walk/run interval. There are always lots of people out there in the neighborhood walking when I'm out there, which leads me to my pet peeve. So many of these people walk on the wrong side of the road!! Is it just me or did these people not learn as kids that you are supposed to…

NSV = Now Shamefully Vain
lol...yep, at least for me does! For the first time in a long, long time, I actually looked at myself in the mirror today and said, "wow, you're looking pretty darn good". It just makes me want to keep on going until other people say that about me, too...lol.

Negative calorie foods
This might be old news to a lot of you but I just stumbled across this and figured it was at least worthwhile for us that are new to the site. I can vouch for how accurate or how true the statements are, but it does appear all over the internet on a number of different sites, so perhaps there's some validity to it. This is…

Cooked off calories?
Okay, this may sound like a silly question, but sometimes I'm a silly guy. Does the calorie content of food change when it's cooked? For instance, if a spare rib has 200 calories in it raw, do any of those calories cook off during the barbecue process? Would that same rib have fewer calories when cooked? Thanks for your…

Self discovery about eating habits.
Since I've joined MFP and have kept vigilant track of my calories, I've noticed that I tend to eat more and feel more hungry on the days that I don't have a bigger breakfast. When I say bigger breakfast, I'm not talking about bacon and eggs. Even if I have 1/2 a bagel with low-fat cream cheese, I tend to eat less during…

If you ever thought you couldn't do this......
For years I put off dieting because it took too long to see results. I tried supplements, crash diets, fad diets, you name it, I tried it. I was looking for results and fast. I convinced myself that I was fine being overweight and when my friends were cutting down on their portions, I grabbed for seconds. Then I stumbled…

Is this even possible?
Hi folks, so here is what I'm wondering. I weigh myself everday (yes, I know you should weigh yourself once a week because the weight will flucuate during the week but I enjoy watching the ride everyday). With that being said, I went out and bought a new scale and a fairly pricey one, too, because I want as accurate a…

Potassium
Can anyone recommend foods that are low-cal and high in potassium. That's the one nutrient that I continuously fall way short on. I even take a potassium supplement but it doesn't put me anywhere near the daily requirement. Thanks.....Bob
