I just am doing my own thing at home, for a little bit. It's not that I am not a supporter of the New Year peeps, it's just that, I don't like being surrounded by so many people all at once...and at the pool, it's even worse. You have to deal with kids and people who don't understand lane sharing. :drinker:

Perfectly stated!

I have to keep my carbohydrate intake at 45% for breakfast, lunch, and dinner...For snacks, I keep my carbohydrate level at 15%....I have been following that requirement, since I started in September 2011. Keeping track of my food intake and exercise output has really kept me going. There are days, when I'm not perfect,…

Speaking of ribs, I still order me a half slab, with fries, mashed potatoes, and chicken gravy. I love me some ribs!!!!! The real ones, that is! Yummie!!!! :drinker:

Yeah, today while shopping, I literally forced myself to look in the misses section. I felt very uneasy, like I was trespassing or something. I don't know another way to explain it...For me, I believe, that my lack of self-esteem is creating this wayward thinking. I, also believe this way of thinking is fueling my…

I can not eat a big meal before working out, because it makes me ill...But, I will consume either a protein bar or some string cheese....Something just to give me that extra pep....Usually, I will eat dinner after my workout.....Eh....But, I'm have been trying to break thru a two month plateau, so, something has to…

BUMP!

BUMP....Keeping the :heart: going! :drinker:

Yes, I am a work horse, I'm dripping nasty, nasty...but, yeah, I was just measuring the "ick" factors of others...like I said, it is a rarity....

:blushing: :yawn: yeah, stinky Irish guilt is winning this battle over exhausted self....:drinker:

yeah, i better jump in there before I fall asleep....

^^^^^that made me laugh, LOL^^^^^^^^....

I didn't like that my blood pressure was very high...I was reaching a size 30 and that freaked me out....I just starting questioning myself, and knew that something wasn't working for me, ie; staying in bed, not working, being depressed, eating whatever... I knew there was more to me than that...I wanted to control my…

I'm hoping they are not strained......It is just in one tiny area, so that is what is so weird about it....I will try and adjust my grips and such! Thanks...

I had just gotten sick of feeling crappy all the time. I went to meet a dietitian and she suggested, that I use myfitnesspal. Logging in daily has kept me motivated and held me accountable. It has been hard work. But, the thing I've learned the most about this journey, is being honest with myself. There are going to be…
