  • This. And the loose/lose thing. Exactly.
  • Did not think of that. I really, really hope that's how it plays out!! I like the way you think! :)
  • I'm so sorry for your loss. And I understand the temporary assistance. Yes, I have been on welfare for some periods of time, when I was a single mom between jobs (still a single mom, but never between jobs anymore), or at a low-paying job on maternity leave ten years ago. That said, I agree that it should be just that:…
  • Lazy: Physically, yes.

And by diet, I mean making sure your diet is full of healthy foods and within your target calorie range, NOT to go on some crazy restrictive…
  • Whichever one is not planned in advance!! Usually dinner. Working on changing that.
  • I have a gym membership and zumba (separate studio) because I have a personal trainer who works me much harder and probably more thoroughly, since he knows the muscles and capabilities of the body way better than I do, than I'd work myself (just being honest), and a gym membership is required for that. Other than that, I…
