Magical unicorn ear buds
I'm having some serious issues when it comes to my ear buds. I can't find a single freaking pair that will stay in my ears. I even bought a "sample" pack that came with several different shapes, sizes and materials... None of them will stay in for longer than two minutes. It honestly hinders my ability to work out as hard…

Sigh. Stretch marks!
I know that the angry red color will fade over time, but as I'm losing weight, the skin just looks worse & worse. Each individual stretch mark is sooo deep. It makes my skin looks wrinkly & unsmooth. I feel like even if I weighed 125 freaking pounds, I still wouldn't be able to rock a bikini & look good. :embarassed: I…

How much water is TOO much?
Because I've had about 112 ounces already. I've heard that people can actually overdose & die from drinking too much water... I dunno how true that actually is, but I thought I'd ask. How much is too much? Or is there such a thing?

Progress pics! 45 pounds lost!
Dolled up for Halloween of 2008. This is before I had my son, I was at 150: This is one month after I had my son. I gained 65 pounds with my pregnancy, I was so disgusted with this picture. I have honestly never felt so ugly in my life. :( February of 2011, I was at 195: This is me a couple weekends ago! Using MFP &…

I can't believe how much I used to eat!
I remember one night in particular, my ex-boyfriend & I had been drinking beer all night. We decided that McDonald's was in order, so we each picked up two double cheeseburgers & a small fry. Well, he ended up falling asleep before he ate, so I sat down... And... Stuffed all four cheeseburgers & two fries down my fat…

If every day were like today...
Has anybody ever tested this theory out? For the next five weeks, I'm going to record my daily "If every day were like today..." weight & average them out at the end of the five weeks. I wonder how close it will actually be. :tongue:

Toning inner thigh?
How do I tone the inner thigh? Even at my skinniest I could always pinch a good amount of chub. It just seems like an awkward area to tone. Suggestions?

Somebody PLEASE explain to me...
How the HELL do I lose nearly 25 pounds & not go down a SINGLE jean size?! :grumble: I've been in a size 15 since I've had my son. Decided to treat myself to a size smaller jeans today & came home depressed. I tried on a million different pairs of jeans & they were all too tight, complete with a horrific muffin top.…

New Balance N4 "Pearl" heart rate monitor
Anybody have this? Love it? Hate it? Opinions of any kind? I can't afford a Polar, so I'm debating on this model. Thanks! :smile:

I hurt myself! :(
I dunno what I did, but during a TurboFire HIIT workout this morning I pulled something. The pain is in my butt, which I didn't know was possible. It's on the whole right side of my butt cheek & I can feel it slightly in my leg too. What the eff did I pull? Is it my hip? Ugh. It hurts && I'm irritated that I won't be able…

I'm getting really discouraged...
MFP is a great tool, but it's honestly starting to depress me. I liked it more when I was blissfully unaware of how much I was eating. I've lost twelve pounds since the beginning of May, but what with summer here now I can't stop eating barbeque & other delicious edibles that come with the warm weather. I'm over on…

Do you guys eat the same thing everyday?
I'm always going over on my food because I just eat whatever, log it afterwards & I'm like "Whoa! That was a hell of a lot of calories!" Do any of you guys eat practically the same thing everyday to insure that you eat well? I wish food wasn't so delicious. I think it would be easier to eat the same thing everyday, even if…

My TurboFire came in the mail today!
Yay! I'm so excited to start this program! Is anybody else here doing it? If you are, I have a couple questions. -Did you start right away with the regular schedule or did you start with the prep schedule? -Is this hard on your knees/joints? -Do you use MFP as a food/exercise tracker instead of the TurboFire tracker…

How often do YOU weigh yourself?
In the past, I've weighed myself every day. I found that sometimes the daily scale routine was very depressing. But it's also like an addiction, ya know? You just CAN'T help but step on that scale every day. I'm thinking that I'll weigh myself on the first & fifteenth of every month. But maybe I should weigh once a week? I…

New & looking for weight loss buddies!
Hello people of MFP! :smile: Just signed up today & I'm really excited to get started. I've been working out (Turbo Jam & ChaLEAN Extreme) for the past couple of months now & dropped about ten pounds, but I think that counting my calories will definitely give me the edge that I need to continue steady weight loss. I love…
