Vacation Set Back
I'm so disappointed in myself! I had been doing really well on my life style changes, or so I had thought. One month of hard core dieting and exercising was all but undone on a one week vacation! I'm having a hard time getting back into a routine. If nothing else, I learned a valuable lesson on the importance of keeping it…

Do people ever say this to you?
I've lost over 70 pounds, and I just got into the "overweight" BMI instead of the "obese" one. I get lots of compliments, but a lot of the people act like I don't need to lose anymore weight. I'm 5'4" and 174 pounds. That's still not healthy. I don't broadcast my weight to them, but I do mention that I have some more left…

Too excited about fitness?
I'm getting the impression that I am getting on my co-workers and familys nerves. Compleatly unintentional but I can't help it.

"Excuses Begone!"

Now it seems I might be tipping the scale too far into the physical activity direction, and it's starting to concern me. I'm not feeling well today. I performed a double workout session yesterday, ending…
