The past few days, I get on here but just don't have the will for goals. Things are just so crazy with the parents, and I'm just so darn tired. Went to bed at 9:30 last night and struggled to get out of bed this morning. I had a meeting on site at 7:30am. I got out of bed at 7:05am. I live close, but that was pushing it. I…

I've been a spin instructor for almost 20 years, and a cyclist for 15. The most folks that come to spin can be broken up into 4 categories. Those who have heard it's a killer workout and want you to push them. Often cardio junkies that aren't quite ready for "hills" - Love to hate it… Those training for a triathlon/long…

@PackerFanInGB I wasn't really looking for a new job, but I do worry that Tim and I work at the same place. With some of the environmental litigation going on and the corporate money crunch it makes me nervous. If something were to happen we'd both be out of a job. The job market around here is not great in general so when…

@HappyDonkey75 I think we are about the same age, and it makes me extremely nervous to put myself out there. Of the 2 jobs I applied for one will be a pay raise and similar to my current operations manager position (I have a screening interview tomorrow - boy that was fast) and the other is a step back to quality manager…

I with y'all on the parents front. I try very hard to be a good daughter, but my relationship with mom is trying on a good day!

With everything going on, life has gotten away from me lately. I will weigh tomorrow. I'll be content with no gain, but honestly expect a pound or so up. Sorry all. FIL is finally getting discharged today. That will make things easier as we (Hubby, SIL & I) only have to cover one location instead of two until we find help.…

Friend, many of us have been there. The mirror is still no friend of mine (working on that), but my scale is my buddy. I have struggled with weight for longer than you have been alive. I have literally lost and gained hundreds of pounds over the last 30 years. I used to fear the scale because I put value in the number.…

What is your height, weight, gender, etc. and how long have you been logging your food to determine a deficit?

@bex1086 you don't need to ignore your exercise calories, you just need to get a good idea of how many calories you are actually burning. From purely personal data. I'm 5'1" when running I was 115lb. My Garmin put me at about 85calories/mile, but through trial and error I found that I tended to burn closer to ~70cal/mile…
