  • We really need the option to comment on our boards, that would work so much better and I feel like we could do more encouraging of each other…or at least a button like a like button but perhaps it could be a "you got this" button!
  • Word for 2015…DETERMINATION! I am determined to be a better person, to live in the moment, to think before I speak, to be purposeful in my daily life, to read the scriptures, to work out weekly, eat more healthy 80/20, to care for myself, to see the good in others, to find the positive in my children and tell them. I know…
  • Welcome and I get what you're saying…I've been in the same boat as you are and although I am feeling wonderful with a real desire for change, it is still hard sometimes especially during the holidays when all of my darling neighbors come bearing gifts of "what I call Satan" aka delicious treats…I am beginning to realize…
  • Hi Steff, If you want to log a calorie burn for strength training, there is a listing in the cardio database for strength training. I don't know how accurate it is...a lot depends on how much you weigh and how intense and continues your strength training is. For a year I used a heart rate monitor and used it to figure an…
  • And Tina in MD...evenings are the worst!
  • can someone please tell me why when I put in strength training, it doesn't show any calories burned? I'm getting frustrated with the lack of excersizes I can find in the cardio and strength training browers....is this making any sense? Are there any experts in this website out there? HELP Steff :D
  • oops, forgot that I never did the introduction part, so here goes. I am a mom of 5 biological(4 girls one boy), 4 (three girls one boy)step (although I never call them that because we are a full time family) children and grandma to 4 (two girls two boys)grand babies. I am married to my best friend. I lost my first husband…
  • Sassy: So then I got it into my head that presentation is Everything and started bringing fruits n veggies Trees ( picture coming ). This fruit tree is easy peasy. Core an apple, stick a carrot in it, then using toothpicks broken in half start placing your fruit onto the carrot. I used cookie cutters for the melons. :) I…
  • Feeling great this morning…went to see "Catching Fire" with my sweet daughter and managed my calories regarding popcorn and drank my 100 oz of water so I could have a soda…it feels really good to be in control of my eating. Chris (DH) and I talked this morning about how everything seems to be better when we are working…
  • Yay, it's raining in California…just wanted to tell you how jealous I am of your day…sounds like a blast. I lost my border collie 2 years ago and I still miss him terribly. Best dog ever! two hours of lifting…when did you start and how long did it take you to feel "healthy and strong". I'm scared to death to go to the gym…
  • olive oil for my salad…back to lemon juice.
  • Hello Girlbean, I'm new too and thought this would be a good place to find others in our age category that are working on losing weight and what works at our ages. I'm finding it a little more difficult at this stage of life than in my 30s. Sounds like you are doing great on your journey. I hope to be as successful as you…
  • Ok, here goes…I'm just starting this journey and so far I "feel" a hundred times better, but my mind is not so convinced. I have learned that walking and working out help me as much or more mentally as physically and so I am working on being consistent. I saw this 50+ group and thought maybe that's a group I can relate to.…
