Use meat for flavor more than substance. I've changed my ideas of what the "main course" of a meal should be.

I can't imagine why anyone would willingly take anything into their system without knowing what it was. I stood in front of the shelf at Walgreens for several minutes trying to figure out what was in her supplement pills. I was baffled that it was all claim and no evidence. Now, I do like her chocolate shakes, but I can't…

I hate lunges. But I like jumping jacks...go fig.

Good challenge. Like many of us, I've started and stopped more times than I care to remember. And I had to do a lot of looking in the proverbial mirror and get honest with myself about WHY I gained the weight. What went wrong? I was never overweight growing up. I was very fit and a talented sprinter in track. I was a…

Purely my opinion, but I think that food addicts have to be vigilant....forever and always. I could down an entire D'Giorno's pizza, a bag of Milano's and half a jug of Simply Orange. How I never slipped into a coma is beyond me. Would I do that now? No. COULD I do that now if my guard was down? I shudder to think!

I never liked the hot ones, but I could easily eat a box in college. That was a midnight run in Greensboro. I wasn't fat then....:huh:

No pedometer but great challenge. Forcing my water will ensure that I make more trips to the ladies' room...that counts!

Took 8 year old to skaking party. I really wanted to skate but I'm having some knee pain that I don't quite understand. So......no real exercise today. However, I managed to stay within my limit, even with a partial banana split. Not sure how accurate my logging is, so I'll be on the safe side and just stop eating for the…

Done!

O...........M..............G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE LEVEL 2!!! What in the world???!!! She's crazy. I'm serious. Someone should really do a background check on Jillian. I just powered out completely. My 13-year-old was just staring at me and my 8-year-old kept saying, "Are you okay?" My 10-year-old was just trying…

Okay....I just cried. Her courage, your insight, and our fight.

Okay, mini challenge complete! Shredding this evening.

I was already participating in the 100 squat challenge until Christmas so this is right up my alley! I actually enjoy squats. I guess, in all fairness, I should do 150 to make sure both challenges don't get cheated....:wink:

Hope not....sounds destructive.

The claim reads: Lose UP TO 20 lbs.... That's a safe disclaimer because the phrase 'up to' includes everyone who lost anything at all. It's like when you read the sales racks "get up to 40% off" could mean 10, 28, or 1% off. It's misleading but accurate.

Try asprin, if you can handle it. I take an asprin everyday anyway. But it truly helps when my joints feel stressed. I don't know why your joints are popping. But mine tend to do the same thing and the asprin has been wonnderful. Don't know if I'd get the same result with tylenol or advil or aleve. I just prefer asprin.

Thank you! Be safe!

Age 7: Then there was the time when I was racing this boy on our bikes. Except he had a 10 speed and I had the kind that stopped when you pushed the pedals backwards. He was coasting and making that cool noise with his pedals/wheels by pedaling backwards. **IMPORTANT NOTE: I was wearing shorts, a halter top, and flip…

We had rat poison in the garage. I convinced all my neighborhood friends that it was cake mix and we all started playing with it. None of us noticed the red skull and crossbones on the top of the box! My dad caught us before we mixed the contents into my sandbox to make mud pies. Everyone had to go home after that.

B....saves money ...and marriages.

Chocolate....cake, cookies....chocolate

I haven't had painful swelling in my lower legs and ankles in a month! I used to have cankles (or fankles, depending on how you look at it). The pitting edema was so bad that I had to wear those ugly compression hose that are way too hot for summer. But now....no more! And I'm not swelling in my fingers, either! I used to…

LIKE!!!! You'll Never Find............

I tried on a long lost outfit this morning...just for kicks and giggles. My expectations were low but I'm all about testing the limits. It was a size 18 suit. Not an 18W. BTW, the "W" is supposed to stand for "WOMENS" but I really think it stands for WIDE:grumble: Anyway, I looked at the waistband and thought, "Yeah,…

I have found that if I wait until I FEEL like doing something, it will never get done. I count my workouts as an obligation, much like paying the bills or grocery shopping. It has to happen. And when something has to get done, I do it, even if it means something else has to be sidelined. I'd rather do anything than go…

STOP PLAYING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There are no words.........

My attitude, not my aptitude, will determine my altitude.

BTW, there's no white refined sugar in my house, either. So they didn't drown it in sugar.

OOOHHH, I like this idea! Okay, so last weekend I intentionally didn't buy any cold cereal except for Post Shredded Wheat. Not the little squares with frosting. I bought the big, gigantic, cardboard tasting biscuits. Every single day this week, without fretting, questioning, whining, or complaining, ALL my children fixed…

I don't think about my cleaning, cooking, shopping, wagon-training enough to even remember how much or how intense it is/was. I'm always doing something...even if it's walking the halls of my home like a drill instructor barking at my kids LOL (which I reall don't do often). There's always laundry to fold or cereal to…
