I started walking to the subway every day, then went on to swimming laps with the old folk a few days a week, then jogging, then I did a boot camp class and that changed my life!, then I did some gym group classes, and for the past year and a half I have had a personal trainer. All of these things benefitted me in…

Before those few decades of pre-packaged foods being consumed, there were millenia of non pre-packaged/ natural foods being consumed. Science has brought us a long way, that's for sure. Along with salt content, sugar content tends to be really high in these food choices. How much good are they doing for us? It's fine to…

I'll sometimes just wear a regular cotton t-shirt that you'd wear on a casual day out, they cost the same as workout clothes. I don't think the only option has to be mens shirts or really tight clothes.

ha ha ha! I'm glad you found some Office Space humour in the situation. Please have the music playing in the background as you baseball bat it to death. Also, good for you for not letting it get you down. Like you said, it's just glass and plastic.

honestly, the best thing for me is to get out and do it all over again. it might seem like an awful idea, especially on day 2 of pain, but that is the best time to do it! power through, see and feel the results.

My tiny cat's name is Sumo... I always thought it would be either really funny if she turned out fat, or ironic if she turned out itty bitty... either way, funny?

THANKS FOR EXPLAINING THE JOKE!!!.... :huh: A pirate walks into a bar with a steering wheel down his pants. Bartender says "You've got a steering wheel down your pants!?" Pirate replies "Yaaarrrr, tis drivin mi nuts" love a pirate joke

2 Kitties: Sumo, she's 2.5 years. Brewster, he's 2 months

I have my calories set to my BMR because I don't work every day, but when I do, I stand for a solid 5 hours or more, which DOES burn more calories than sitting (For anyone who doubts this, just look at the description for light activity!). I went onto a website that helps you track absolutely every "exercise" you could…

I'd be interested in the age of the people "studied". My husband was tiny growing up; had a 27" waist up until he hit about 35. He then started gaining weight and now he has a rather round belly. He's been trying to get if off since i met him, but he just keeps gaining. His sister… though she is still very slim, is 40 and…

See?!?! That's what I'm talking about!!!

The drugs are the best part of the ordeal!!! Just sit back, relax, and get doped up

I love me some kissin', but I always found it so charming when guys wouldn't try to kiss me on the first date. My husband didn't kiss me on the first OR second date, I think that's what made me fall for him. He wasn't all up in my face (or skirt).

HOLY CRAP!!!! You're not?!?!?

Never in my life have I been told that I look like anyone… that was until last month twice in one week 2 different girls told me I look like Kristen Bell

You wanna hear bad relationship stories? Well, lady, I've got 'em! The most significant was that of my boyfriend from when I was about 20. We were together for just over 3 years. He broke up with me every summer because he wanted to "have fun" and then would promptly get back together with me by mid August. I fell for it…

I'm Canadian, just outside Toronto. I think I sound ok. I don't think I sound like what satirical American comedies think I do. I do not say "a-boat" or "cher-ono"... I say "ter-on-o" and i say "eh"... A LOT. I loves me any kind of accent that I don't hear a whole heck of a lot of (so anything other than my fellow…

Me... I don't want 'em. I love love love kiddos, but I do not love love love them 24/7

Woo hoo! No butt crack!

Math is stupid, and this is the exact reason why… p.s. I'm going back to school and currently have 90% in both chem and bio, ended up with 65% in advanced functions. Math is balls, and makes NO SENSE! p.p.s. I actually applaud people who understand formulas, and the such.

I'm fairly certain a raw food diet takes a lot of work, so if the no cooking thing is due to laziness in the kitchen, raw food probably isn't the best bet... If you are seriously trying to be healthy, make your own food, do not buy processed, and put the time in. Maybe try a cooking class (you may like it!) If you are…

I have an irrational fear of drive through car washes. Have since I was a small child. My husband wont even go near them with me in the car, though I tell him to go all the time - I just close my eyes and breathe into a paper sack :D I'm completely normal...

My concern would be that you do manage to lose the weight, and then when you are on vacation you eat like you're on vacation... you will likely gain it all back while you are there. Crash diets do tend to result in immediate weight gain once you are off them.

My SIL doesn't have a microwave and people think she's nuts (her sister, mainly). I'm all for it! I didn't have cable for almost 2 years and my husband (then boyfriend) refused to live that way once we moved in together. I much preferred it then, but it's all about compromise, I suppose. I don't think a TV is necessary at…

my absolute favourite thing to do is sit outside in the warm air at night with a friend and chat (this does not take a group, just one more person :)) Reading is fun. If you can afford it, redecorate a room (this does not always have to cost a fortune, get some crafty ideas online). I love going to the library. You could…

Poutine!!! It's actually a major factor in my weight gain.... Sadly, I can never go back to my delicious friend :(

I love that you said you'd look like an ice cream cone! I used to say that ALL the time about myself. I can relate, sister! I agree with others, I doubt skinny jeans are an absolute necessity for this theme. Wear pants you are comfortable and confident wearing, go along with the black top theme, and have fun!

Ok, I'm going to pipe up here… Tell her the truth, do not sugar coat it, do not make it seem like you want any more contact with her, expect tears, do not feel bad. She needs to get the point. The worst is when guys make it seem like maybe they care a little, but they really don't. Seriously, it is best to be an *kitten*.…

your story breaks my heart! Please don't degrade your self like this. If he is a true friend, and you two have gotten reaquainted over the past 2 years, he surely will see past what you feel are flaws. In fact, he should support you with reaching your goals. Living in a state of shame may make you lose amazing oportunities…

May I attempt a little advice? I know it is difficult when it feels like a relationship is onesided (though, I have no clue what your effort level was in these relationships), but sometimes it takes a lot of effort on one person's part. I am lucky, and I do have a (very small) group of very close girlfriends who know…
