Please keep us in your prayers and postive thoughts....House
Our duplex caught fire last night and then entire back half of the house is gone. The front have has extensive damage. Everyone is okay, but my youngest is having a VERY hard time. She's got some anxiety problems on a normal day, so this is a lot for her to handle. Please hug your kids extra tight and practice your fire…

What do you do when you just don't want to work out?
I'm completely losing my interest in working out. :( I literally have to talk myself into it, and force myself to actually do it. All summer long I was working out and loving it, but now that autumn has hit...that summer motivation is quickly fading. I've varied my workouts up to this point, and right now I just have no…

Low blood sugar...
Let me start by saying that I have a doctor's appointment (although not until October 20something) and am just looking to see if anyone has any advice for me in the meantime.

Finally, cold weather.
I have always been the type of person to love winter and fall solely due to the fact that I can wear sweaters and pants and be comfortable. While I've mastered the art of sucking it in, I can be free for awhile during the cold weather. :laugh: This will be the last winter I will feel this way. Next year, I will be mad that…

So bummed!! Need to vent!!
I am so bummed out and can't find the motivation I need to get back on track. I'm bummed because I got laid off on Sept 16 and haven't been able to find a job. I know it's only been 2 weeks but it feels like an eternity. I haven't been without a job for over 20 years and it's driving me crazy. It's making me feel really…

ARRRGH
I am having a terrible day in every way :( I have that "binge" feeling and I just can't shake it. So I'm here, instead of devouring everything in the kitchen.

I need ideas
My husband and I have the same goal of 60 lbs before our anniversary on April 4th. If I reach my goal, I get to go to the Lucy Desi museum/home in Jamestown, NY. If he reaches his goal, he gets to go on a hunting excursion. We are still trying to decide on an extra incentive for the person who reaches the goal first. Any…

Losing weight AND quitting smoking
I noticed that some people include on their tickers their number of smoke free days. I think that is awesome! Congratulations! Stopping smoking is the single greatest step you could take toward getting fit. The media is currently fixated on obesity as the number one health threat, and sure it is a huge problem. But think…

Totally Losing Motivation
The change in season's is really putting a damper on my motivation. I did really well from March - September. The past few weeks it's been getting darker earlier, which cuts out my nightly run and makes me want to sit on the couch, watch tv, and bake. I'm scared to start gaining again!
