Good morning ladies! How are all my pebbles this morning? I am okay so far. Hee hee. I am going to try my legs at roller blading again. I think I'll be lucky if I can go 15 minutes but it does burn a lot of calories. The park closest to us does not allow it so I will have to drive to a park, but that's okay. My goal is to…

Weird Question
Ok, I know this is weird, but I'm asking anyway. Do you know if they have dance classes for heavy women? I don't know, salsa, whatever. I LOVE dancing...I used to dance all the time.

Sprinting and Popping Ears
When I sprint, after about the 2nd or 3rd sprint my ears start to pop. It gets worse and worse, until by the end my eustachian tube is completely open. It makes it next to impossible to hear.

New with shoe ? (kinda long)
I walk on a treadmill (usually 3.5 mph @ 2.0 incline) and I am having difficulty with shoes.

I have tried 9 1/2 to 10 1/2 but can't seem to get it right. When I try them…
