  • She should at least do it with a cat on her head!
  • My daughter wears them to ride as well. She is on the equestrian team. Believe me there is a big difference. The material is thicker on riding breeches plus they usually have an inner thigh padding. Big difference!
  • My kids school has a uniform code for kids and teachers. They have to wear black pants and a red polo shirt. Well one of the very large teachers liked to wear leggings. Several parents complained because not only does it look horrible showing all of her ripples and rolls but many times they were very thin and you could see…
  • lol i was very tempted. Even asked the girl next to me if we should say something to her. But since this girl in the leggings has a nasty attitude we figured we would let someone else tell her.
  • I'm against wearing leggings as pants. To prove my point as to why they shouldn't be worn as pants, today in my class this very large women walked in wearing white leggings with a leopard print thing under it that I think is supposed to be a thong. Everyone gasped when she turned around to take her seat. I honestly felt…
  • For someone who's "father" is so well educated you have a very limited vocabulary. Or do you just have turrets?
  • I lost the first 68 pounds by simply walking. My kids are all grown now but when they were little and I wanted to get back in shape I started with walking. Put your baby in a stroller and go for a walk a couple of times a day. Not only will you benefit but your baby will love it. Now with my kids all being much older I…
  • You've already lost 53 pounds. Thats a heck of a lot. If thats not motivation enough to keep you going then I don't know what is. Do you want to undo all of that hard work? Just think of how far you've come and how much you've accomplished and keep going. I looked at your food diary and have to say you're eating healthier…
  • Have you had your iron levels checked by your doctor? I wouldn't up my iron unless the blood work showed that you needed it. I say this because I thought I was low on iron and took supplements with iron and ended up sick. Turned out I had high iron levels which has the same symptoms of low iron. After further testing I am…
  • Bump so I can check this later. I grew my own pumpkins this year and want to make lots of different goodies for the kids and hubby. Of course I'll have a little bit.... Moderation is key!
  • My husbands grand father passed away at 96. When he was 90 we always said he had more spunk than most 60 year olds in the family.. Those who were in their 60's at that time looked and acted like what you would think a 90 year old would be. Now my MIL is 78 and is in horrible condition We keep expecting "that" phone call…
  • I found a great online calorie burning calculator that I think is more accurate than what MFP says. I have the app on my cell phone and use that. http://www.healthstatus.com/calculate/cbc
  • My main exercise is walking. I've lost over 50 lbs walking alone. I'm going for an additional few pounds now. I will always walk for my main exercise and toss in a couple of times a week doing yoga.
  • Buy some sushi from a gas station vending machine :laugh:
  • Also check out this youtube video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KA9AdlhB18o
  • Great idea with the extra mat folded up. They have a stack of extra mats there.. I never thought to do that.
  • There are men and women in my yoga class of all shapes, sizes and ages. No one cares what anyone else is doing. So if you can't do a specific pose the exact way the instructor does and need to modify it for your body then do it. Thats the great thing about yoga. Its all about "your" body. You do what you can how you can…
  • I don't like anything that has me kneeling for any period of time because it kills my knees. I really need to get one of those spongy rubber kneeling mats they use for gardening. My friend uses hers and swear by it for getting some cushioning for her knees. Any pose where I have to bend backwards and tilt my head back…
  • I agree with the sodium explanation. You are eating way too much sodium. And watch those home made meals that your putting them through the recipe calculator. Especially soups, stews and casseroles. If your having a burger you're better off entering each individual ingredient used such as 2 strips of bacon, 4 oz ground…
  • Just got my flu shot yesterday. My husband and all of our children get the flu shot every single year. It beats the alternative.
  • I'm also looking for new yoga friends. Add me too please!! Namaste :flowerforyou:
  • When I get that way I force myself to get out moving again. Take a walk early in the morning and take in the fresh morning air. It gets thinking of how good it is to be healthy and able to move around better. I start to think of how I want this to continue. Then when I get home I feel rejuvenated and ready to start the new…
  • How quite everything is during a snow fall and the look of the first snow fall before anyone walks around or a car drives through it.
  • When my husband and I were just dating he went with me to the gym and did his thing while I did mine. I couldn't imagine working out side by side together let alone zumba??? ugh!! NEVER!! The only exercise we do together is walking. And forget zumba! We do the horizontal mambo! Your wife seriously wants to work out "with"…
  • You sound like my husband lol This is what he's said to me in the past when I've complained about my weight. In the end I had to want to change and lose the weight. He has NEVER told me I need to lose weight or that he doesn't find me unattractive etc. He has always said I love you just the way you are. I've even asked him…
  • hey you found a picture of me on my bike mowing down a bunch of women pushing strollers.. cool!!! :laugh: :laugh:
  • This is why I prefer to ride my bike...I can just run them all over if they don't move! How dare people take up the entire path! lol Actually I yell coming through coming through when I get closer to a group of people just standing there blocking my way lol. That gets them to move :laugh: We all just laugh as I wiz past…
  • I lost both of my parents not long ago and my best friend passed away last week. I sent you a lengthy message in a friend request. See you on the healthier side of life. YOU CAN DO THIS!!!
