  • i was going to post the exact same thing! hummus has been a lifesaver for me. I have gotten in the habit of buying a container of hummus, bag of baby carrots, and bag of wheat pitas, bringing them to work on monday and just leaving them in the fridge at work all week. every day, i have my lunch already here and waiting. no…
  • About to go out for a run... it is HOT and HUMID out there!! I want to do three miles, but my bod does not handle this weather in an appreciative manner... so we'll see.
  • Just wanted to check in to keep myself accountable! I'm still running every other day, but no more than 3 miles. It's such a mental game!! I feel like I could do more, but I just struggle with forcing myself to finish.
  • thanks for the words of wisdom and encouragement, all. :flowerforyou: i only did 1.5 miles yesterday because my knee was bugging me a bit. i think it's because my leg muscles are just weak, and also not used to running two days in a row. today i'm going to just hit the gym and rock the elliptical. and do some quads work so…
  • That's awesome!!! You should be so proud of yourself for sticking with it even though you weren't seeing immediate results. It's so easy to get discouraged!
  • I need to start posting here more often. I've been running on and off for 4 or 5 months now and while I love it and it feels great, I tend to make excuses and then get caught in slumps where I won't run for a week or so. ugh! i hate it. i sleep and feel so much better when i'm working out regularly. All that said, I did a…
  • I have a hula hoop!! :) It's not a sports hoop, but it definitely weighs more than a "normal" hoop you'd buy at the store. I bought mine from here: http://www.philthyhoops.com/ because they're local, but you can find lots online on etsy.com or other sites. It's fun to take to the park on a nice day and try to learn tricks!…
  • ohh!! anyone in the philadelphia area (it's spreading, i don't know where all they sell it now): Bobbi's hummus. Is the best in the world. I like the mild garlic one best. mmm. i could eat hummus forever.

  • Congratulations !!! You ROCK !!! That's such a tough thing to do, and you seem like you've got a lot of steam to keep going. You look BEAUTIFUL in your pictures.
  • Hahaha, no you're totally right!! I like to play boozehound from time to time. I've cut WAY down on my drinking and limit it to weekends at this point, and generally only one night of the weekend. I know I probably need to just commit to quitting it altogether for awhile... but I'm not ready to do that. I'm afraid that…
  • I don't think I've even posted here before. I can't really remember. Anyways, I've been at it for the past three weeks or so and am trying to not weigh myself because I tend to get frustrated when I WORK WORK WORK and see no results. For the first time ever, I'm actually counting calories, which I swore I'd never do, but I…
