HELP: NECK PAIN WITH LYING DOWN TRICEP EXTENSIONS
Hi everyone, So today I was doing some lying down tricep extensions and I was really pushing for this last rep. As I lowered my weights down after pushing for that rep, I noticed a very sharp, tense pain running from the point of my chin downwards on my neck--like a vertical line of pain up and down my neck. I tried doing…

My reflection now vs. a year ago: a failure
Just about a year ago, I started extreme dieting to get in shape for my high school prom. I was in denial at the time. I felt great; I looked great; no one could get me down from the high of being thin. Then summer hit. With summer came copious amounts of food and drink, face-stuffing at family dinners almost every day--it…

I'VE GROWN A SWEET TOOTH!!
I have no idea when this started happening, or this occurrence's specific time of origin, but I *do* know that it is *very* detrimental to my weight loss/general healthy diet. I'm in college atm and we have an "all-you-can-eat" style cafeteria. There is a huge centerpiece shelf constantly stocked with cakes, cookies, and…

I love it when people call me "hun" or "sweety"
It makes me feel very loved ^^ (from females though - from any other male than my boyfriend.. it's a little creepy:indifferent: ) What do you guys (as in all of you c:) like being called?

i feel like a fat potato lump
:sad:

Anyone on Nike+ here?
I just joined, and would really love to challenge someone to a game of TAG! >:D

I'M TIRED OF BEING PEPPY.
It seems like everyone on here is FILLED with exclamation marks, smiles, and almost TOO zealous pep. Not that being nice or friendly is discouraged... but there *is* a line.. Frankly, I don't know how many of these people are ACTUALLY that peppy because I know that the "good cheer" I dished out at times was just to match…
-
young, chill, meme-lover?
add me - I need some friends with a sense of humour who aren't totally peppy all the time.

Some of my friends not being as supportive...
I mean... I don't need everyone to jump on my statuses and updates.. but a few words of encouragement once in awhile would be nice :frown: On that note... friend me, mfp-ers :flowerforyou:

Is this pushing too hard? - Need advice
Hey guys, So I was doing p90x today (Cardio X), and I was trying to track my calories burned (with an online calculator... don't have a HR monitor), and I put in my average HR, and it wouldn't let me!! Said my peak was supposed to be like.. 174 bmp, but my average was 183.25 (at one point, I got up to over 200....uhh..) I…

AMAZING TRICK FOR COTTAGE CHEESE HEAVEN
Hi everyone! So, I want to clue you in on a little way to make cottage cheese taste AH-MAZING for a dessert or snack (hint: inspired by rice pudding!!!) I like my cottage cheese sweet (I usually have it with fruit), so this is one for the sweet tooth's out there :) I start with 1/2 a cup of 1% cottage cheese (100 cal) and…

I've lost exactly 2 pounds since last week :smile: Are your target calories working for you?

ANY LOW-CAL, FILLING SNACK IDEAS? :(
IN DESPERATE NEED HERE :sad:

Scared of relapse :(
I'm on a pretty strict "diet".. as in a layed out meal plan right now, and I have a problem :( I'm super hungry, but I worry that if I stray a little from this "diet", I'm going to go crazy and think "oh, I've already had this and ruined today, so why not?". I have self-control issues :grumble: I also can't go to sleep…

girls who hit on guys who are taken (or vice versa)
One: Is this wrong? Two: If it is, who is at fault? The person who does the hitting, or the person who allows themself to be hit on? Opinions.

Crossed the line - never going back!!
Hey guys! This little success definitely isn't as dramatic as "50 pounds gone!" or "Down 4 sizes!", but it's really exciting for me. In the past when losing weight, I've never *really* been able to go below 150 (at 5'9"), and it's been really frustrating because that 150 mark has become this prematurely judged plateau…

look at my drawing!!
it keeps me concentrated, and my hands busy (and not grabbing for foods!!) virtual cookie to whoever knows who this is :smile: (I hope this image thing works!)

CAN YOU PLEASE TELL HIM THIS IS NOT HEALTHY.
My boyfriend just joined mfp yesterday, and I think he may be taking the whole tracking and being under your daily calorie goal thing a LITTLE far... and by a little.. I mean he has a 1400-1500 calorie goal, and his net calories for today is: THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY CALORIES. He says "Oh, I'm full though" and he tells me…

I *know* it's water weight, guys.. but still feels good :)
So in the past couple of days, I've been strictly following my daily calorie intake of 1200 calories/day... and, after 5 days, I weighed myself, and I've "lost" 3 pounds! Now, now, before you all get your feather ruffled up, I *know* it's just water weight :) I *know* it's not.. "real" weight loss.. but hey - it is a bit…

Come support my tumblr!!
Hey guys! I was hoping that I could get some support and followers from the mfp community for my weight loss tumblr. The goal of that tumblr is to blog about my weight loss, basically, so that I know other people are watching and (kind of) judging my progress. It's a weird psychological motivation. BUT.. I STILL SUCK AT…

motivation help please :(
When I'm tracking my calories, I do really well up until I get home...which is when I'm just surrounded by all sorts of basically untrackable homecooked Chinese food. I generally watch a bit of T.V. after dinner, which is when I get the munchies, and I snack constantly. :( I need motivation argh!! What do you suggest,…

Lower heart rate and more time, or higher heart rate and les
I was talking to my friend the other day about the "weight loss" option on a lot of exercise machines. You know those ones that basically give you an interval program to your work out. The other day, I tried it, and I found that it really wasn't getting my heart rate up very much... which I don't really like. When I work…

Just an itty bitty success :)
This isn't really about my weight, or my caloric intake, or about any of those (important), but very numerical values. I used to be extremely athletic, playing badminton at a national level about 2 years ago. I'd bring home the golds from the provincial tournaments, be praised by family and friends, and was just an all…

Who's in love?
:) I am, and I'm partly doing this for him - he needs a little motivation himself. I figured, if I start going with it, maybe he'll feel more inclined to start as well! It's better for both our healths, a win win situation! So I have a question: Do any of you find it hard to tell a loved one that they need to lose weight?…
