Back from the clinic. Severe upper respitory infection. Bed rest and fluids, along with some anti-biotics. Does floating in the pool drinking beer count as bed rest and fluids? Actually I am joking, not even a party animal like me can hang today...I'm in my dark little cave of a bedroom with a glass of water on the bedstand, trying to breathe. Maybe my sister will bring me chicken noodle soup. HAHAHA
I hope you feel better soon, Lynnie! Rest up and keep trying to breathe, it's important! :bigsmile:0 -
hey all you ladies, where do you go to buy jeans? i just went to old navy, tj maxx, and sears and found nothing. i found out that i can fit into a size 12, but it seems like all the jeans i tried on are stretch material and low rise. the jeans i'm wearing now are express ones that i've had for at least 6 years (the last time i fit into them) and they fit really well. don't they make jeans that keep your stuff in anymore?0

Good question. I'm very interested in this answer too.0 -
6 weeks ago I was 2.5 pounds heavier but today I am 4.5 inches smaller. I'll take it.
It is slow. It's hard to get excited when the scale doesn't validate all of your hard work. There are other ways to see progress though. Thank goodness.
It's all good.
What about when you don't lose inches or weight?

My Madison is going to be like you April. Maybe even Ava too. Her Dr. Has said anywhere from 5'9" to 6' :noway: I am going to have to tell her to sit down so I can disipline her!!:laugh:0 -
Jeans... just saying the word is like a black cloud hanging over my head. It's torture to shop for them. The last 2 pair I bought were Levi's 550-Relaxed Boot Cut, they seem to work well for me.
When shopping for jeans you should take a friend to run back and forth for different sizes and styles, cause no matter what the tag says, no matter what they say they will do for your shape, how they will flatter your figure, none of them ever fit right. Then the friend can go with you to drown your sorrows and be the DD so you can get home. LOL. Kidding, but there have been times I have shopped for jeans that it felt that bad.
I find that Old Navy and places like that have the more 'hip and in style' fits- in other words, it's all going to hang out. The last time I went shopping for them I wished I had a notebook to write down all the promises made by the jeans- instantly slimming, tummy control, made to fit curves- blah, blah. I was thinking I could write a book about just shopping for jeans!
Sorry my friend, after all of that I have no advice. It's a long tedious process. You will burn mega calories in the never ending search for the perfect jean....... best wishes on your journey!
And with those well wishes I just realized I only have one pair of jeans in my closet that fit *gasp*. Luckily cool weather is a little ways off for me!0 -
Lori- By the way if I do all the exercising this week I have planned for I will have burned 7700+ calories! :noway:

Oprah was all about jeans yesterday. Marc Jacobs says levi's are the best and stacey london and Oprah both say micheal kors are great! just thought I would throw that out!
Micheal Kors is probably really expensive but Levi's aren't so bad!0 -

Well.... crap, I don't know, but you are burning even more than me. Something has to give. Our scales must be affected by the unseasonably, ridiculously, freaking hot weather in Florida. There must be some magnetic pull that is disrupting the ability of our scales to properly analyze, calculate and report our weight. Yeah, that's it!0 -
Did 120 crunches, in various forms, last night. After seeing my tummy in the plank position, it was obvious I need some serious tightening in that area. Wish we had a treadmill at home. Haven't run since last Monday morning....That always helps. Now, it's too stinkin' hot to run in our gym at noon. Supposed to reach at least 110 with the heat index today. Might have to dust off my bi-CYCLE too. It's an oldie but does the job I suppose.0

You are a machine. My knee and foot and really that one whole leg are ticked off at me. You are younger, you're body must be cooperating better.
I did pop a Motrin and got one of those bands to go under my knee to keep it from popping, the knee cap seems to have issues. I'm going to go to the gym and ride, ride, ride. I think I'll sit on one of the recumbent bikes that only the grey hairs use at my gym. I need to BURN. It's totally bugging me that it's last chance workout and I haven't done anything!0 -

Its official my city has been put on the map. Sarah Jessica Parker's surrogate gave birth at our local hospital last night to twin girls. That's where my hubby works. Following link gives the story.
