For long sessions, I tend eat a decent breakfast and bring water with me. I'll also eat when it's over. Then again, I also tend to fall asleep within the first 15-30 minutes and my artist is very used to waking me up to get me to move. I'll take a drink when I shift to the next position he wants me in, gossip for a bit and…

Jim Parsons - The Great New Wonderful (2005) - Olympia Dukakis Dukakis - Picture Perfect (1997) - Kevin Bacon Mark A Sheppard

I have 50+ shirts from Teefury, Quertee, RIPT, shirt.woot, and ShirtPunch this year alone. My husband is threatening an intervention.

347.03 mi - Continue in valley. Land starts to rise. Can see huddle of hills ahead

bump to keep the links.

LOL! That's exactly how I felt when they rebooted the show. I grew up on classic Dr Who with Jon Pertwee as my favourite doctor for years and had a really hard time getting my mind around the switch from campy to the slick new version. Love the new series now, but it was touch and go for a while. And I always make time to…

322.1 mi - still in the valley.

I've taken a craft class with Nathan's mom & both Nathan and his mom have taken pics of my tattoo with their iPhones (Nathan later tweeted it). I grew up in the hometown of Donald Sutherland and met him a few times. He's Keifer's dad... who worked with Kevin Bacon (I believe) Does that make me 1 or 3 degrees separated? And…

My diary is closed because I have so many food allergies and intolerances (and am celiac on top of that). I don't want to deal with well meaning comments suggesting I substitute X food for Y as often Y will be a food that would either make me very ill, or could possibly kill me. I track everything I eat or drink for my…

I have Serenity on my left shoulder and a (classic) Dr. Who tattoo on my right thigh. The rest of my tatts are non-geek related.

303.44mi: Camp - Follow a wide shallow curving valley. In NSV news, I walked 2 1/2 marathons this past weekend. No idea how the Hobbits managed their distances as my feets are killing me!

Bumping to keep a record of the links.

Slogging through the snow on the way to work today really put a damper on my mood. Trees dumping heavy snow (and sometimes branches) everywhere. I know we've been known to have snow in every month in the past but after the "non-winter" we had in AB this year, today's massive snow dump feels like a personal insult ;(

Sounds like you and my husband were cut from the same cloth. While, at my heaviest, he used to comment quietly about how much he'd like me to be more active so we can do more things together (hiking up mountains, etc.), he never once said he no longer found me attractive. He was just as "raring to go" then as he is now…

*psst* y'all done forgot a "delta" at the end ;P

I understand the Cdn Forces are significantly different than US Military. That said, I've been a military spouse for 16 years (17 this Aug) and moved bases a bazillion times (or at least it felt like it at the time). I married my best friend. Someone who I can always talk to. Someone who makes me laugh or understands why I…

I'm working my way up to bench pressing & deadlifting - physiotherapist says I need to build more muscle around previously broken clavicle and vertibrae before I should attempt them. If she ok's deadhangs (I'm not able to do pull-ups - yet), would I do that with palms facing inward (towards face) or outward (away from…

As far as I can tell from reading up on the exercises he's given me, this is the only non-compound/non-body weight activity he's given me to date. The trainer did come highly recommended from my physiotherapist as being one with lots of experience dealing with injuries so I'm not sure I should be looking for a different…

Thanks. I'll definitely try the warm-up/stretching before starting. I do have access to 5, 7.5 and 10 lb dumbbells. I was just wondering if I should use those instead of the 20 lb + barbell weight. Perhaps starting with the 10 lbs and dropping to 7.5lbs per arm if I can't manage the barbell today?

I broke my back and left hip many years ago and have slept on my side with a pillow between my knees ever since. I find that if I don't have a pillow between my knees, or sleep on my back, my back will spasm for hours once I'm awake. I can't remember who suggested it at the time - either my surgeon or my physiotherapist -…

252.96 mi - Cross Great East Road and enter thickets on south side. Land slopes south.

Carefully read the packages. Many hotdogs (including chicken dogs) contain gluten. As do many brands of pre-made burgers. Also, carefully check BBQ sauces to ensure they don't have malt ingredients or soy sauce since both often contain gluten. I realize brands in the US are different than Canada, but Grimms and…

236.34 mi (378 km, oh my!) Follow path south toward Weathertop: path is cunningly hidden and is edged with stones where land is open. Sam recites part of The Fall of Gil-galad. Note: I'm tired. Have noticed my walking distances have really slacked off this week.

I could go free at the base fitness centre but since the base is a 30 minute drive away from where we bought our house, it's just not worth it for me. ETA: Perhaps it's not free. There's a good chance hubs would pay a fee directly off his pay for us to go... we do pay fees for everything else (RV compound, housing, etc.)…

I have a city Recreation Centre membership that costs $39/month. It gives me access to all city Rec facilities for self-guided activities and to drop-in on instructor-led programs (e.g. spin classes, race walking classes, etc.). Most have pools, running/walking tracks, gyms (wooden court style), and weight rooms. Some have…

Most definitely. I have 10. 2 more in the design phase. Some are large; some small-ish. All can be hidden if the work situation requires it (i.e. I wear a pant suit). All have a story or special meaning behind them. My husband currently has 3 and another in design phase. Course, his number is low because I consider his…

How long have you been on MFP? Since Sept 2011 but I was at a different site from Jan 2010 - April 2011. Lost 65 lbs there. I do the same things here. I like the MFP app better for tracking which is why I jumped ship... How many calories a day do you eat without exercise calories? 1650-1800 Do you eat your exercise…

Originally from NB. Lived in ON and MB. Now in AB (Edmonton). Ah, the life of a military family....

bump to review later.

Not happening until after work, but today's workout will be - Warmup: 2km walk Circuit: Squats on Bosu Ball x20 Dumbbell (5lb) Lateral Raises w/ twist x20 Lunges on Bosu Ball x20 (10 per leg) Run around indoor track x1 (0.25km) Plank (1 min) Treadmill Walk 15% incline as fast as possible (3 mins - first circuit); Treadmill…
