(That means, "to examin.") And since the study was done…

  • I've never had freckles. I've had smooth flawless perfect skin all my life. I started getting freckles over the last 10 years. Started off as one or two and each year added more. Now I have tons and hate it. Same for my son except his started showing up around 10 years old. Perfectly pale smooth skin then a few here and…
  • This. Never rely on motivation from others. If it isn't in you already, you won't succeed. But I hear ya on the missing the faster metabolism. Weight melting off with a weeks worth of sit-ups now takes a month to accomplish the same thing. (Ok, a bit over exaggerated but pretty darn close!) maybe it's just that when I was…
  • I am in 100% agreement! I didn't sabotage my children (or myself) with corn dogs and chicken nuggets. They ate what was good for them. They were only allowed junk on special occasions. No soda at ALL. They got water and watered down juice. Now they are teens and yes, they spend their own money on junk.. But they rarely…
  • You described your goals and a small portion of your life, but left out your mind.
  • Looks, my hair and eyes. Personality, my stubborn persistence and relative calm. Talents, my writing and art.
  • Do..the money, I spend on beer Ray.. the guy who serves my beer Me.. the person who drinks my beer Fa.. a long long way to get beer So.. I'll have another beer! La.. I think is french for beer! Te.. I chase down with my beer! And that brings us back to beer beer beer beer! Curtesy of Pirate Shantyman and Bonnie Lass at NC…
  • I like both. I LOVE my ipads (or rather, I loved them until my daughter smashed one and my son the other..blasted clutzy teens).. I love my iPhone even if it is just a 5s.. But I adore the Samsung Galaxies also. However, they have way more glitches than my I products ever had so that's a major downside for me.

  • Just remember, it isn't about how well you stick with it, but how many times you get up after a fall. Persistence wins regardless of how many restarts it takes!
  • I LOVE mustard greens! Look up recipes with 5 stars.. my sister in law cooks them to perfection!
  • That elevation is nothing compared to Leadville Colorado. Practice there and Utah will seem like a breath of fresh air.. literally.
  • I'm not looking forward to it. My son is 18 and graciously has decided to stay at home until after his bachelors degree. My daughter is 15 and plans to move out just as soon as she turns 18. She plans to get a job at 16 and save every last dime to buy a cheap house and invite her besties to live with her as roommates.. I'm…
  • My daughter came out of her room a few months ago just sobbing, big crocodile tears spilling down her cheeks. She climbed into my lap and wrapped her arms around and sobbed into my shoulder.. She is 15.. I was like, "WTF man? Some guy break up with you or what!" And all she could do was whimper and shake her head no. So I…
  • The only way I know of without using medication is severely lowering your carb intake. Like, keto levels. Talk to your doctor and see what he or she says. Also google keto and lupus. Keto is used to manage many autoimmune issues.
  • My 18 year old says random things like gerfrinsnizlefroc.. lately he's taken up saying "Lordy Lordy" when people frustrate him. He HATES cursing. He'd rather destroy their self-esteem and tear them down to nothing, never once using a curse word. But he is beyond pissed then and you can guarantee that if he gets to that…
  • Too much firefly
  • Awesome. Welcome. Uhhh.. good luck with your goals?

  • You may wish to open with that instead of "Hi I'm new" because you are correct. Most are here to lose weight so they click on a newbies post, see they are trying to gain, and leave without a word because they can't relate to your situation. Where as those that can already have experienced that the majority here are trying…
  • Example: I don't give a flying carpet WHAT you think my job is! You get in my way I'll kick your Ashtaroth from here into tomorrow so back the Fairy off you son of a bisquick! Bloody jack rabbits.. Never been fired from a job. Coworkers either hated me or found me hilarious. Managers hated me but upper management always…
  • My sister in law took away my scales (I have 2 because I like to take the mean and come up with a number) because I kept weighing myself. Seeing fluctuations don't bother me though. In fact, the sciency part of me likes to find patterns and I was fascinated to see what hours I was heavier during and what foods fluctuated…
  • Welcome and Good luck! It has helped many stay accountable.
  • If you are overweight and not losing, you ARE eating a lot. At least, a lot of calories. You may not think you are (I didn't! Because I always skipped meals!) but once I logged what I did have, I was appalled! Some of these foods are calorie dense with little substance. Take peanut butter for instance.. 190 calories in…

  • There are Pilates for different disabilities you could google. Otherwords, just move. Whatever makes you comfortable..do. I don't know what your disability is, but swimming generally accommodates most. But yeah, it's mainly cico that helps you to lose. Pounds in the kitchen, ounces in the gym.
  • Hypothyroid here and so far it's been great. I haven't tested to see if it's helped with my levels, but others have claimed it helps with theirs. The biggest change I've seen is ENERGY. Not a lot. I'm not bouncing off the walls or running marathons, but somewhere I went from sluggish to not tired all the time. That and…
