Okay, will give it a whirl. Did I calculate that out to almost 2 lbs. a week???? ::::: faint ::::: Nothing like a challenge to keep a body motivated. SW 179 GW 139 It would be awesome to celebrate my 45th bday (Dec. 29) at just a little what I weighed when I got married! B) ~Lisa

I gave an old canning far full of some dirt and pebbles from our garden. Put a label on it... "Authentic Dirt From __________ ". Another year I wrapped a big pretty present with a note inside that said "Better Luck Next Time". I love white elephant gift exchanges! So much fun! Also, we always do white elephants as gag…

I always use reduced fat, or low fat for the dairy, except milk, which I use in my coffee. We get it fresh from a farmer nearby, so it is the real deal, KWIM? But I don't sit down and drink a glass of it, which I would LOVE to do. Some of my protien snacks are almonds, and those are high in protein and fat, which…

Ehhh... that is what I figured. I think I can use the elliptical now though, so I guess it doesn't matter. Just thought I would ask, just in case!

Go team 2! Just injured myself Tuesday, but I think I can do the elliptical. So,I appologize in advance if my numbers aren't good for a bit! Does the recumbant bike count?

garlic hummus is my new fave, which reminds me, I need to make some today! (is that really low carb? ) Cheese is always a big fave, but I try to keep to the low/reduced fat stuff and I really watch my portion size.

IT band? I had to look that up. Looks like that could be it. Doesn't seem to require a doctor visit, just care, from what I have read?

Alas, I can swim like a fish, but have no where to do so. :(

Sounds simple enough. Definitely count me in!

I'm interested too... what are the guidelines? and does it have to be outside?

I never trust any of the equiptment's calorie count. Even the Precor's at the gym. I always use my HRM. The estimates the equipment gives me is always wrong. I mean like, really wrong. And I found the more calories I burn, the more off the equipment is. My advice is totally ignore the calorie count feature on any of it,…

Wow, I was going to post about this very thing! I have it especially bad in my left hip, so much so I am limping a little today. I just got back into running, and I am loathe to give it up at all. Good to know some good stretching will help!

Oh this looks so good! Thanks so much for the recipe. I hope to make it this weekend!

It is hard to know what to say with what little info you have provided. Even if you "could" quit your job I wouldn't recommend it. Not over that. Cranky, complaining people are in EVERY job. Here is what I suggest: Don't enpower her by letting her affect your mood. Maybe you could interject some positive comments if she is…

I agree with the others.... WOW and YES I can definitely see a difference! WTG! Thanks for sharing your wonderful story. It is very encouraging!

Awesome job! Dumb question... what is NSV?

Personally, I love this weather. Everyone else thinks I'm crazy!

Just a quickie update.... I've tried a few things including making sure I eat all my calories, plus some of my exercise calories, though I haven't done as well with the latter. I've also tried to drink more water. I usually don't weight myself very often, but obviously did last Friday, and thus started the rant in my OP. I…

How much time will you have for working out? I have the circuit training one with JM, and you can do as much or as little of that as you want. It is an excellent workout!

I have the older version and LOVE it! Will be interested to hear how you like the new one. What trainers are on it?
