Thanks for all the comments. I usually do parallel but lately I've been sing a lot of ATG so I thought I would do a check in with everyone.

oops yeah! Changed it. Thanks

So true! Kale is a tough taste to cover.

That is an AMAZING nsv!!! You must be working very hard. Great job!!

I agree about the pumice stone. I wear gloves and still got calluses on my hands. Got a pumice stone and do it in the shower and voila no more calluses. (Pumice stone cost $1.50)

I love sweet potatoes and these are some really great ideas!! Thanks OP for starting this one!!

This IS true! Traffic is a nightmare!! Good point!!

Take it from a North Carolinian it IS the best!! Our summers are HOT and Muggy. Our driving in snow is hilarious. Our beaches are amazing. Our mountains breath-taking. If you tend to be more liberal-you are gonna wanna do the whole Raleigh, Durham, Chapel Hill thing. If you are a bit more conservative you might like…

WHOAH!! Look at all the NCers! Add me to the list, Durham right now, Kings Mountain by heart!! Edit to say: I was GOING to put 'look at all the tarheels' but we all know what a mess THAT would have started with the Dukies.

It is NOT just you!! Holy cow I am right there with you. I lifted regularly right after I had my last son, 12 years ago. Could lift and do ANYTHING i wanted and bounced right back into shape. NOW at 43, sometimes I feel like i hurt myself just picking up a piece of paper!! LOL I am being very faithful and diligent on FORM,…

No words can express how your story has touched me. Thank you!

Thanks everyone! I wanted to post before and after pics but Mom didn't know how to do it :( I still love her though.

Hey you guys! Thanks so much for your input. I am going to take the week off. Started today. It felt so weird not planning on doing any weights!! When I left the gym I almost felt like I had forgotten something. I appreciate everything yall said.

I am gonna try this! Thanks

gotta do it "bump for later"

^~~~~~ This!! I have done this program twice and I REALLY like it. There are videos with each exercise in case you don't know how to do something specific. You should check it out!! GOOD LUCK!

OMG! I so LOVE YOU!!!!

WOW! I thought it was just me!! I started feeling like I was crazy because I am always cold and everyone else is like "No, I am fine" :tongue: Sorry ya'll are cold too, but glad to know I am not crazy. (Well not about this anyway :laugh: )

Totally remembered to bring my lunch to work today so I am sitting here looking at MFP eating raw veggies with 60 cal dip!!

Not scientific by any means BUT here is my 2 cents. Everyone says your body adjust quickly when you do the same thing over and over. My thought would be if you body never knows when you are going to exercise it cannot adjust so it seems to be a good thing. Just keep track for a while and see if you are losing weight. As…

Hi everyone! Thanks so much for the invite. My name is Meg. I am 43. I don't have any idea of how much weight I want to lose. I have lost 37 pounds and I like (for the most part) how my body looks now. My goal was 165 but that might be too low. ANYWAY.... I live in Durham NC. I love to eat. I love to cook. I hate feeling…

I am super excited to try these!

I wear 'em too! and again they have PINK on them!! :laugh: got mine from the sporting chain store that will get blanked if I type it cuz it sounds like male anatomy (rhymes with PICKS) LOL

I would say average the two together and use that. That way not too much--not too little

too freaking funny!!!!

Hey, I log mine under dance, general. Are you using a HRM to figure cals burned?

Oh my gosh!!! I used to make my kids and I have a 'no technology weekend' about 1 every three or four months. It was SO GREAT!! Ok first let me say the kids moaned and groaned about it from the day I told them it was coming up, but once we got into it and started spending time together everyone got on board. Even though…

My honest opinion..... toss it in the trash!!! I think unless you grew up in upstate NY cooking those darn things correctly is just outta the question. (but then I am from the south what the devil do I know!) Good luck with that!!! ;)
