Mumbles83 I love your sweater! And your hat of course.

Seattle area!

Okay so I was going through all my magazines (I have a hard time throwing my fitness magazines away because I might want to try something in them.. so I decided instead of keeping the whole magazine I'd start ripping out the pages I may want to reference.. anyway..) and I ran across this article: "Can cankles be cured? The…

THIS I'm not sure what you mean by you don't use plates? You eat off of what exactly? Do you eat it out of the pan? Are you just preparing it in a pot and shoving it into your mouth? Use a plate.. a dish which you put your food on and use a small one. The smaller plate will trick your mind into thinking it's getting a lot…

I am NOT a nurse BUT! I wanted to say "Thank you" to all of you who are/have been/want to be. I'm a radiology technologist and if it wasn't for you amazing people I would go nuts. :) So.. Thank you for all that you do and keep it up!

Okay.. so I don't keep measurements of my legs BUT.. I have been doing more running lately and yesterday I had my legs up on the coffee table because that's how I roll.. and I thought to myself, "Well hello there sexy calves!" haha I feel like the running has made them leaner and more shapely if that makes sense? I run…

I just weighed in.. I've been weighing in on Sunday mornings before I do my long run... It doesn't really matter which day of the week you weigh in as long as you keep it consistent. It's not like that junk you ate yesterday is going to immediately show up on the scale anyway.

Well said.

I'm not currently doing P90X but when I did do it I recall the first week being a b i t c h. :)

With jalapeno peppers and lots of black pepper! Mmmm

I bought a treadmill ($100 barely used) on Craigslist. I also have a few free weights that I use and the resistance bands. I own the P90X workouts (and might start them again in the near future) and some other workout DVD's but I'd rather come up with my own workouts and watch TV while I do them lol. Lots of body weight…

Bump!

Bump!

I work out at home. I found a nice treadmill on Craigslist for about $100 that works like a charm and I have some free weights and those bands. I do a lot of the body weight exercises for strengthening and hit the treadmill. I just don't have the time or money to get to the gym. The benefits of working out at home is the…

Mine is meeee! :)

The Game of Thrones series was fantastic!! I will definitely be re-reading them once the next comes out.. which could be a while.... ! I'm currently reading Hyperion.. which is strange, only 25% into it.. yes I said a percentage.. Kindle - you sweet little carrier of knowledge I love so much why must you give me…

I have a TimeX Ironman Triathlon which is 2 pieces, the watch which I wear ALL the time because it actually looks decent and the heart rate monitor which is a chest strap that is waterproof and sweat proof and all that good stuff. I love it, I don't work out without it and it tells me lap times, calories burned, max heart…

I'm sexy and I know it! Girl look at that body.. I work out!

I got shocked at the end too!! Thus, my profile picture. It hurt sooooooo bad! hahaha! So much fun though!

So I have to disagree with this slightly as I did the TM at Whistler.. Whister, BC is a ****ing mountain. I spent all day going up and down that mountain, going in and out of freezing cold water and lakes. Having said that, I had a blast and I did not "train" very hard for the event. I am starting my training now for the…

You guys are making me hungry mmm... carbs :) They put a smile on my face indeed.

I highly, highly, highly recommend the Couch to 5K program. I downloaded a C25K program onto my iPhone/iPod for FREE off of iTunes and used it to get myself back into running. The program starts exactly as you plan to start, little bit of running and then walking intervals which gradually increase. You're encouraged to…

Psh... You're just upset that I beat you to the bathroom and now it's all fragrant in there.. Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

I think I need to poo...

I did consider the Bridge to 10K program but I have a limited time frame I'm working in.. I need to be able to do 10 miles up hill lol.. by the end of June for a Tough Mudder event.. so I decided I would just go for the 1/2 training. If I had more time I would definitely be doing the Bridge.

Guess I'm a little late to say "Go for the suit" but I'm glad to see you chose to go the professional route and would like to be the first to say "Good luck!!!"

I CAN NOT WAIT!! My TM event is the end of June! Just buckle down and do it already!

There is an application on the smart phones that is free for myfitnesspal. It's amazing and free. I highly recommend to anyone who has the option to get it.. do it!

I LOVE the scanner on the phone.. I use that as I am going about my day and before I stick food in my mouth. It helps me avoid that "OH ****! I didn't know that's how unhealthy that was.." feeling..

I'm a radiology technologist.. I take x-rays like most people think but I also go up into the OR and work a C-arm (uses x-rays), work with fluoroscopy (which we can use to watch you drink barium as a "live picture" among other things), and when I'm not busy I'm reading my kindle :) Love my job hate my commute.
