In a society that seems to be tolerant of all behaviors good or bad, why is vegetarian vs meat eater so heated? CAN'T WE JUST ALL GET ALONG?!

I read a study once that plants talked about how plants send out stronger electrical impulses when someone who is mean to them is in the room. What they did is hook a device to plants that recorded the plants electrical output...whatever that mens in plant land. Then they sent a person into the room who was "mean to the…

Be careful, for some they cause excessive gas!

How did you do on eating your fruits and veggies yesterday. I had a one or the other with each meal. I need to really work on getting more fruit and veggies into my diet (are pickles and olive considered veggies?). Monday and Tuesday and Friday are my stressful work days. I do home daycare and I have 2 babies under the age…

Not sure what happened but I was up 1 pound yesterday. I went from 181 to 182. I was at 179 on Friday, just goes to show how much weight can fluctuate. My challenge for you this week is to add at least 1 more vegetable and 1 more fruit serving to your daily diet. Most people do not get enough of either so if your goal is…

It is Friday and weekends always mess me up. Hopefully this month I can keep up and not destroy my hard work every weekend. Today's odd diet tip GET UP! STAND UP!…

I had a bad day yesterday. I felt stressed and would find myself in the kitchen eating. I would stop myself only to find myself back in there a few minutes later looking for a snack. Need to fix this bad habbit. On a positive note I got a 4.4 mile walk in on the treadmill already this morning. Hope everyone has a…

I am in. I have my personal goal to walk/run 100 miles this month. Last year my high month was 150 miles but fell off the wagon from Sept until the last few weeks of Dec. I need to get my mojo back and get moving again.

Suggest a walk together after dinner. Tell him it would be more fun for you if he joined you. A lot of times my husband and I take the dog for a walk after dinner and leave the kids at home doing homework. For us it is usually one of the few times we have to connect without interruptions from the kids. Try to serve…

Way to go! I think breast feeding is so awesome for a mom and her baby if she is able to do it. As you try to lose weight while breastfeeding just make sure you do not drop your calories so low that it stops milk production. That being said I think that when you go into the area where you set up your goals you can click to…

I saw a post earlier that asked for strategies to lose the 5 pounds this month. I have posted the math before but I will do it again to give you an idea. To lose 1 pound you must create a calorie deficit of 3500 calories. That means eating less, working out more or any combination of the 2. To lose 5 pounds that means you…

I am so sorry I have not been around much since the September group. My life has been crazy. I got the flu back in September and ever since my IBS has been out of control. I can usually get rid of the stomach pain and cramping with extra fiber but that did not work. I also fell off the exercise wagon which I think really…

Well I am maintaining. I keep thinking "here come a week without a lot of activities" and then something always seems to come up. Hope all is well with everyone. Hopefully soon I can catch up on all the posts. Terri

Challenge for everyone! At this time of the year you may feel you have no time to exercise, the goal is to find ways to fit in exercise anyway you can. So for this month when you go to the store or mall park as far away as possible. At the mall when you get to the store you want to be at walk by and do a lap around the…

Happy to see so many people here. I need to wait a few days to get back on the treadmill. I had minor surgery on a toe last week and now have a little fluid build up behind the nail making it sore. Doctor said to soak it and massage it and it will go down. It is a bit sore right now so I want to wait to work out. Keep…

(Maybe longer..Bru do you remember) We gain and lose people every month. We are informal and work to support each other in this journey. Be a cheerleader for…
