  • In to follow recommendations. I have been thinking I might like one but haven't done any research yet, so just glomming on to your post, OP. My only current gadget is a polar hrm. Seeing numbers gets to be a game for me, so I think it would be motivating.
  • In for all the great info and links! I can goto the Y if i want to but prefer to exercise at home...the sparkpeople videos are really nice, I use their videos for seated exercise right now (surgery recovery) and those videos have been extremely helpful!
  • I have been a SP member since 2009. I like the smartphone app here better, it was easier for me to use. But overall I like their site better, it is more interesting with all the articles, videos, etc. The forums...some are more active than others, I really like a couple of my groups here. There is less snarky attitude on…
  • Oh Lord. I use Android. I haven't gotten any of those comments yet. But if I do, I suspect it will go something like the *conversations* that happen in my car: Me: Call XYZ Car: Calling ABC Me: No, call XYZ Car: Calling ABC Me: No, godammit, call XYZ Car: That is an unrecognized command. Please say another command Me: F&^%…
  • I had stage 3 colorectal...T3N1M0..diagnosed July 20, 2012, last chemo, May 2013. I have a PET scan tomorrow, actually, so it's hanging a little close around me tonight. I am so sorry. I have sent you a friend request. I can provide you with some resources and ideas and just...be here. Jean
  • I am one :-) but am also an RN and have worked only as an RN since 2011. So anyway...go prepared. Take printable sheets of your records from MFP, take activity logs, etc. The more information, and the more accurate information-especially, that you can provide, the better. Be prepared with what your goals are, I always…
  • Welcome. Sorry we are all here, but welcome:flowerforyou: :drinker:
  • This has been a lovely post to read. I am feeling nostalgic, sad, and motivated all together. I remember that feeling. In 2009 I lost 45, was a size 2 to 4. The way I fit into chairs, looking at my jeans when I hung them to dry-so small! I remember "the" moment...I was in a department store and saw a woman across the way,…
  • Thank you! I think I will suggest it. It's a feature we would appreciate.
  • Ok, 1st off, let me say I appreciate your post. It has pointed out features I did not know I had available. I did recently get a scale and have been doing side by side comparison of weights vs volumes. Regarding "homemade" or using recipes entered by others, I have done that *if* the information given is such that it…
  • Nice. Saving to review again later.
  • Very good! Unaddressed they can become very dangerous.
  • I will come back to it in some form soon. I had two weeks in and popped on incisional hernia. Not the fault of P90x3 or Combat, in fact, my surgeon complimented me on my developing abs, lol! Just a weak spot in the incision scar tissue. Good news is rest of incision is tightly knit and solid, so when this is repaired, we…
  • I am having surgical repair of an incisional hernia next week. I have a lifting restriction til then and while he isn't making me lay on the couch all week, he did tell me to simmer down as to not make it bigger. I had just finished P90x3 and was a couple of weeks into Combat when it opened up. LOL...I also thought to…
  • Thanks!
  • I am one week in. I will admit the other day when HIIT Plyo was on the schedule, I was dreading it...turns out, it was pretty enjoyable! At least, as enjoyable as anything containing a burpee can be! I enjoy Combat for the physical and mental release. There are a couple of the trainers, if you read the biographies, who…
  • The frozen dough is delicious :-)
  • Mine and yours. Sigh. *kitten*, every one of them.
  • Steady Eddie sprouted bread is a new fav. Eggs, egg whites. Variety fresh and frozen veggies. Bananas (I get a few...the rest are for the rest of the house, lol!) Black grapes Wholly Guacamole cups (love to take to work for snacks, also to put on sandwiches) Canned beans Plain and vanilla Greek yogurt Big box of spring mix…
  • Just finished P90x3, and started Combat on Sunday, so tomorrow is day four. In the past I have done P90x, Insanity (3 times, gulp!), Turbo Jam, Turbo Fire, Les Mills Pump, a fair chunk of Tai Cheng. Also own Body Beast (hubby did it), Slim in 6 (I wanted to do it but it never really got me going), Hip Hop Abs (have done…
  • I have just been using the Combat 30 DVD as an add on cardio during P90x3 and haven't done the entire program yet. I HAVE started the program, today was day 3 of the "Ultimate Warrior" schedule...Power HIIT was...fun, lol! I just finished P90x3 and hope that this program helps with some fluff loss. I have owned the program…
  • Oh my. I don't mean to be an *kitten*, but the title of your post, when I was just scanning along, made me completely LOL! I am sorry for laughing but thanks for the giggle :-) I have given in to stress eating a couple of times this week but have been more aware anyway. Which makes me feel a little better. I think…
  • Saving for reminders ;-)
  • I finished P90x3 TODAY (Yahoo!) loved it but 90 days means time for a change, for me. I will start Combat on Sunday and am really looking forward to it.
  • Love this! Ah Shaun T, how I have missed him and feeling like I "owned" him...only for a second..finished three rounds of Insanity a few years ago. I am just coming off of P90x3 and debated heavily between T25 and Combat...and settled on Combat. Will do a round of that, finish just in time to go on vacation (bring on the…

  • Also an RN and totally agree...this is what was meant. It is like a trifecta (or rather, quadfecta?) of signs that point to the gallbladder.
  • Nice! Definitely going to play with this in the next few days! While it would be nice if the whole recipe would show up in the app, I guess it doesn't *have* to in order for me to be happy! Just to save some time...I tinker with all the recipes anyway so being able to alter is *awesome*!
  • Bingo. There is nothing to be skeptical or jaded about regarding ETL. It was published quite some time ago, I got a copy back when, used, for a few dollars. There is no requirement to join his website at all. Everything you need to know is in that book. Nowadays, he does have the website and other books, and he probably is…
