^^ this. Some people just thrive on being a victim, and that 's what's annoying. I'll always be a shoulder to lean on for someone who really needs it, but some people make a big tragedy of their lives over nothing. Bring on the perspective!

Hi All, Thanks so much for all the responses. I can't believe how many people I run into now that have ruptured disks! I know I will not go to a chiropractor, quite honestly I'm scared to death of them... something about popping and cracking, I've never liked any of that. But I was told my my SIL who's back Dr told her not…

Best wishes to you all. I clicked on this post because, though I have not been diagnosed with hypothyroidism, I have had many blood test that come back always on the most low side of normal, and am curious about how other people have managed. Because I've always been within the "normal" ranges, I'm told this is normal for…

I have to agree with pp. One size definitely does not fit all. I know that prior to MFP that both over eating & undereating can cause weight gain. However, I eat as clean as possible to I make every calorie count. I'm at 1200 cal per day & often burn 260-400 cal per day (I'm limited with my exercise due to injury). I find…

Thanks Lily, I'm going to check with the physio centre in my area that came highly recommended to me. I can't believe you do Zumba! I use to do martial arts, and I miss is so much. I hope one day to get back into it... hopefully sooner than later... ;) Best Wishes!

Congratulations! You look Great!

Thank! I'm sorry to say that I've contemplated physio, but haven't acted upon it yet. I know what exercises can stress the back and I'm staying away from those. I can walk comfortably 3.5 mph max with an incline up to level 6 max. I won't push anymore. I use to be a "no pain no gain", "suck it up, buttercup" kind of…

LOL! Ok, I'll admit that I'm guilty of saying that, BUT, not for the reason originally thought. It's like a layman's term when you're trying to explain to someone who is overweight, has never exercised in their life and they question their weight, because they only go by the scale NOT the tape... you try to explain the…

Hey Thanks for the response. Sorry to hear about all your wife's problems, and I'm glad she starting to feel better. I've been into health & wellness for a long, long time. My family own a wellness ctr that focuses on holistic nutrition & remedies & live/dry blood analysis. I found out about 4 years ago that I am Celiac,…

I use 1/2 extra lean beef & 1/2 turkey... never tried full. I'm Celiac too, so I can use Oatmeal :(, so I use gluten free bread crumbs... 1/3 serving of that is 110 cal, 135mg sodium, 25g, no fiber though... hmmm. But I make my own sauce with "no salt added" tomato paste, 20mg only for the brand I use (Safeway Brand) and…

LOL! couldn't have said it better myself. Nothing can beat good old fashion nutrition sense: lean protein, dark leafy greens, whole grains... can you get ahold of a "food guide"?. Or even a book like Eat Clean has good information on food sense. I would recommend that way over any protein shake diet. That being said, I do…

:wink: anyone else with bulging disk issues? how bad? what exercises are you doing? Thanks!!!

They are a necessary evil. Throw on your earbuds with your most favorite song & just do it ;-). I think I say "I HATE LUNGES, but man, I feel great!" every single time I do lunges.

I don't have a gym membership, but I do have a really good home gym, a weight set that goes from 5-50 lbs, treadmill, and other accessories that I've collected over time (bands, balance boards, skip rope, ball). I didn't pay a fortune either... look on kijiji, craigslist, you'll find great deals on the things people buys…

Wow, everyone here is actually below my goal weight. I was 125 lbs at 17yrs being a competitive gymnast & equestrian. When I got more active & started doing work outs in the gym, I was 135 lbs at my most healthiest & amazing shape. I am 5'5", 43 yrs old, and currently 194 lbs (my fault, chocolate, injury couldn't exercise…
