I also do not like water. However, I know some people count crystal light, and unsweetened tea as their water intake. I personnally do not. I do however, flavor my water (32 oz bottle) with one packet of True Lemon, or True Lime flavor packet (they also sell True Orange). One pack it equivelant to one lemon wedge or lime…

Have you tried changing it up a little bit, and NOT eating your exercise calories? Maybe by you eating your exercise calories you are maintaining. Trying staying at your calorie goal prior to exercise.....if you do go over try not to use your entire exercise allotment of calories. I could be wrong but when I was eating all…

Best of luck, we have all been there!

It is tough but it is possible. If you can find time to squeeze tv into your day.....you have time for workouts, even if it is just for commercials. And honestly, everybody I know has time for at least 30 minutes of tv daily.

I agree smiles

My mother died of a blood clot in 1990. Unfort. they did not start testing for this (from what I hear) until the early to mid 90's. My…

Thanks for the replies it is nice to know I am not the only one. I could not imagine being a kid with all this. Being an adult is tough enough. I take Asacol for the Crohn's (which I have discontinued) I am also on Donnatal (Bella Donna alkaloids mixed with Phenabarbital) for Abdominal spasms and Diaherrea. I have a…

Bump....for personal reason

I agree fully. It is physical exercise that gets the heart pumping and it counts in burning calories. I don't think people give themselves credit for all the exercise they do in a day.

Way to go! I can only imagine how much better you feel now! Keep up the hard work!

OHHHHHH, I almost forgot they have a neat one at Walmart. It adjusts to running or walking and has other wonderful features.

I love my pedometer for many reasons. I use it to track my steps. It has been advised to get in 10,000 steps (nearly 5 miles) a day. So, if for nothing else I use it during my walks (exercise for me) and attempt to get at least half of those out of the way in the morning (one hour). I got mine free in the mail from a…

I have many female problems, and only been here just under a month. But, I have not had one in a month. I tend to be somewhat irregular but with my metformin I regulate out. Not this past month though. I've lost 7 lbs in a month, I do a higher diet than most on here for certain reasons.....so I get plenty of calories, and…

Think positive! If you make it a practice to do this on a regular basis this will become second nature. Many of us suffer from negative thoughts and a negative self image. We have to stop thinking we can't, this is hard and start telling our selves that we CAN and WILL do this because we ARE capable and worth it. Negative…

Thank you for posting that as a topic. I didn't even think about doing that. I knew others could use it though. Also, that is why I encourage everybody to do measurements as well as scale weight. Because for me I am not losing much weight at all but I have had 3 seperate people tell me They can see a differance in my size.…

Any more takers!

After looking at 8 days of your diary. The one thing I noticed is that most of the time you are eating you exercise calories. You don't always eat them all, or sometimes you go over. If it was me I would suggest not eating your exercise calories. Maybe 25 of them max only if I was famished. Because if you eat all your…

Make sure you up your water intake a little bit more. Water helps filter our body. So if you are coming down with something, you need the extra water to help push it out of you faster. Exercise is your best tool for boosting your immune system. Try a short light walk (slow pace) with something supporting your knees, or a…

I told my hubby earlier last week I was hooked on this site & that it was better than FB & Myspace put together. I love the idea of making it my homepage. I just might do that. I have also went from being a die hard myspace, to a die hard fb. Now I have abandoned all my games on FB for this site! I like keeping track of…

Yes all of it does. And with no cure out there it doesn't make it any better on us.
