Double Yippee! lol

Progresso soup with crackers.

I'm really sorry to hear this. Can you wear your headphones at all times while on campus? I did this when I first started using the gym... I put my headphones on and it didn't matter who looked at me or what was said, I couldn't hear them. lol Good luck

I really like the rower. If I do 20 minutes.... I"m dead. lol!

If there is no weight, I can do A LOT. However, like another posted stated...Why?

I totally understand you... lol I also work sitting all day and only get up to use the ladies room. I think that takes a big toll on my body.

That would not be a problem, if it's that gentle. I don't know why I think of anti-inflamatory pills like they are Steriods.. lol.

I've never had to take much medications. I'm glad to hear this :)

Wow, that sounds so painful. I've never had any type of broken bones or back issues, so the only x-rays I've had are for my teeth. .. and now my back :smile: Thanks for sharing yoru experience.

Thank you. I can appreciate your response. :)

Thank you. I guess the wording of "it might be" and not a definite "it's inflamation" is what I keep thinking about. However, I didn't know the differences you mentioned.

That is good to know. I'm definitely going to stretch more often... I really don't stretch at all when I'm only doing cardio.

Thanks for the reponses. I'm having problems logging into the forums today. Don't know if it's just my work internet service. ;)

Valid question. I wouldn't have known what his advice was, if I didn't go to the appt. It's nice to have the information and then make a decision, and not just go by my uneducated knowledge.

Great Post. I'm also 47 at 5'4 and found this very interesting. What I noticed is that everyone who is able to eat more, is doing Weights in some way. Young or Older. Hmmm.. another sign I must really get into 5x5 again. Thanks OP, for asking this. Have a great day!

I know this is an old post, but I'm going through this and I'm terrified. I was just walking in the mall and BOOM, a stabbing pain in my lower back began happening only when I stepped a certain way. It almost feels like I might fall, if too severe a stab. It's not happening as often today, but I'm so afraid to do any…

I wish it was this easy for me. :) I enjoy rollerblading and walking. However, getting started is the hardest part for me. Although, I've not regretted a workout AFTER it's done, it's still not something that I look forward to doing. For example, we're on summer break and I get to wear anything I want to work. I have my…

Glad it was of some help. There are days I have on my gym clothes and still manage to convince myself not to go. lol However, those days I try really hard to stay within my calories. :)

Dang. I wish I had a problem eating 1800 calories a day. I would gain with that many calories.

This gave me an idea you could use. Turn the volume of the TV really loud... now you can sing!... lol Seriously though, I like to sing to myself when I'm working out, but I don't sing the whole song. I just mouth most of it and sometimes a few words or humming is heard, but I try to keep it very low. I think you can try it…

Sorry you are going through this. Love yourself more now.

Yeah, what he said. lol

Sorry but that is not the way IF works. It IS eating your daily calories in a smaller window of time. If you starved yourself.. you did it Wrong.

I hardly ate breakfast for most of my adult life, I was able to maintain my weight. When I followed the "must eat breakfast crowd", I couldn't maintain as easily. Ever since I began IF and eat when i feel hungry (about 11 am). I'm succeeding in losing weight. I believe, "natural" eating times aren't the same for everyone.…

lmao! True!
