Yeah, just fit it into your calories, log it, enjoy it, and move on.

Nobody likes to be compared unfavorably to other people, but you are the one doing that to yourself. When I was very young I had this problem. I thought that other people's good qualities diminished my own. But they don't. I look at photos of myself from then and think that youth is wasted on the wrong people.

I've been to the gym so often this month, I'm on nodding and heying terms with a bunch of people. I even know the names of most of the staff. That's like being a social butterfly for this introvert.

I don't know you, but I am so happy for you. That's a hard fight. Congratulations.

Congratulations! What a terrific feeling!

you enjoyed them though, right? :)

oh and loose is an adjective too, right? My pants are loose. He has some loose morals.

I used to try to give benefit of the doubt that people just mean that they have loosed the weight the way they might loose the hounds. "I set those pounds loose." "I loosed the weight into the ether." Or something. It doesn't make much sense to say we've lost weight either. It isn't missing. I know where it went. I don't…

I still remember when someone called me a big girl 15 years ago. He didn't even mean to be offensive. What a weenie.

You asked good questions in a straight forward way. Nothing wrong with that. I have no doubt you can express yourself clearly and well in person too. Don't sweat it.

there's usually a legal escape clause to those contracts.

If your grocery bags, cooking pot, purse, toddler are heavier than the weights you're lifting, then I think there's a problem.

You really only need a session or two with a trainer. If that. Youtube can do wonders.

love it

He laughed? Patronizing *kitten*. find a new gym.

No, expert here, but I've read quite a bit and it sounds like B.S. That was the thinking back in the 1980s, when I was a spring chicken, but I believe it's mostly been refuted now. With the exception of the nutrition advice, I really liked the book New Rules of Lifting for Women. Not because the exercises for men and women…

the curve of my hips. small waist, wide hips - even at my heaviest. I didn't always appreciate it. my tree trunk legs that could move a car if I had to.

not my favorite but the ear worm I have at the moment is "I have a gumby cat in mind. Her name is Jenny Any Dots" from T.S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats

Screwing over a friend many years ago. Still sorry. Still irreversible. Secondly, not finishing college.

Smarts and confidence. Swagger. Creativity. And if he finds me attractive, that's pretty hot.

Intrusive thoughts are a pain in the butt. Yeah, talk to your doctor.

I think I understand what you're saying. It's building a habit. You keep running over the ground at the same place, you're laying down tracks that are easier to follow without thinking. It's great because you don't have to tax your willpower as much. Good job!

I just started back a few weeks ago. Almost had a meltdown in the locker room after a failed Zumba attempt. There were a few tears. Not quitting made me stronger. I talked about it, laughed about it, and turned it into a a story instead of internalizing all that fear and embarrassment. My gym (YMCA) offered two free…

Rock n roll is a pretty broad genre, but let's see… yesterday I was listening to Lou Reed and Everclear. Too old, esoteric, alternative? Today will probably be The Who and Velvet Underground (I'm going through some kind of phase, apparently). You can add me if you like.
