I ordered one of these several years ago after seeing it on QVC or some such place. I haven't a clue how they made it work for TV because in real life it was a MESS!!

I have read this post several times since I started MFP. I searched it out today because I recoginized that I was in the "digging in" stage. I've had some good success, a rough spring break that took me out of my comfortable routine and the shine is starting to dim. This reminds me that I am normal (as close as it gets…

Back from spring break... didn't really feel like a break. Looking forward to getting back into my normal routine. Hope everyone had a good Easter. have a productive week everyone!

Way to go, seriously!!! Keep up the great work!

Snow, sleet, wind, hail... nothing can keep me from my grill. Ok, maybe hail, but then I just send my hubby out!! :laugh: I'm with Dave on the steak... rare for me too, just grill off the moo and I'm in heaven!

Farm girl here.... In defiance... I am lighting up the grill and throwing on some thick, juicy, homeraised steaks!!!!:tongue:

TMI Warning!!! Ok, I'm going to be honest :) When I first started walking/running on the treadmill, I had issues "down there". The pain was not terrible, more like period cramps. If you are having severe pain or if it doesn't go away, please see your doctor. I also had bladder issues when I first started running. I had to…

Good Morning everyone, It's good to see that people are still working on their goals. I didn't do the best with the crunches challenge, but have been keeping at the cardio. Season 2 Biggest Loser started this past week where I work. Our challenge is to average 10,000 steps a day on our pedometer. With warmer weather I've…

Hello everyone, just checking in. I got 90 minutes in on the treadmill. I ran 1/2 mile at 5mph for the first time! I hope to be able to run an entire mile in 3 weeks. Have a great week everyone!

Wow.... look at you!! You are doing awesome!! You are also setting a great example for your kids.

Unfortunatly there are bosses like this all across the country. I actually looked to see where you lived becuse it sounds so familiar!!:laugh: Hang in there!!

Been there! Some weeks the belt and tape measure are a better friend than the scale. Keep at it.. the scale with catch up!

Weigh-in... last week I went up 1.5 to 213.. This week I'm down to 206. 5 lbs yeah! (some was just water weight, but I'm glad I recovered lost ground and then some!) Have a great weekend everyone. Get in a butt kicking work out and RELAX some if you can!

Too cute! Those are the things that keep us going!

The kids are great... most days!!!:laugh:

I had lunch duty today (I'm a teacher). I notice a table of 4th graders pointing and whispering. Every time I looked their way; they would straighten up and look away. After several minutes of this I decided I had better see who they were picking on. When I asked them what they were doing, two girls blushed and replied…

You all are doing awesome on this strength training challenge!!! It was almost 60 degrees outside today so I walked for an hour... yeah spring!!!
