:tongue: This one is me, too! Love it! The shoe one, too. The underwear one, too! OMG! Simple things in life really are great, huh?

I totally agree with that last part. Now, I feel like I want to help them. Can't though, can we?:sad:

:flowerforyou: Didn't post to offend anyone...Just sharing...

Okay, I'm in! I've been slacking this week. My son's TV broke so I gave him mine in my workout room. I hate not having it to workout. No DVD to do Pilates! I'm gonna try the music thing again! AARRRRGGGHHHH!!!!:grumble:

Anyone see "The Doctors" episode yesterday? It was about the top ten contagious things. Guess what was number 1? Being/getting FAT! Yep. They said that being fat is contagious. You hang out with fat people, you get fat. You hang out with skinny people, you get skinny. :laugh: :blushing: :laugh: If you think about the…

I like them as much as anybody (especially the nutter butter cookies) but, they're just like everything that isn't necessarily "good" for us...EVERYTHING IN MODERATION. No matter how it is packaged, YOU still have to take responsibility for your own actions. Just 'cause it's "diet food" isn't a license to eat the whole box…

Here you are! I was waiting to see what name we decided on. I like the Final Meltdown. I have only 17 pounds left to reach my goal. I'm more nervous than anything else. I didn't get to workout yesterday. I'm having serious problems with my son. He needs another surgery and he is refusing to go to the doctor. He is 17 years…

Where is everyone?

Really?! That "flappity, flappity, flap" roll of skin goes away without surgery?!!!!

Water is the key! Lots of water!

Hey guys & gals! I'm not sure if any of you have heard (seen) tyhe Runner's World Magazine. I just discovered it yesterday. I love it! Checked out the site, too. Awesome! Just thought I'd share. :wink:

LOVE YOUR DOG!!!! SO CUTE! HOW OLD, BOY OR GIRL, AND WHAT'S THE NAME? I love animals!

You know you're losing weight when you get out of bed in the morning to find that your panties are 1/2 way down your slowly shrinking tummy and you have to laugh at yourself! Who'd have thought such simple, ordinary things could make us so happy?! :heart: You know you're losing weight when you tuck your tummy in and…

Arienna, Don't set yourself up for failure! The mind is THE MOST POWERFUL tool in your arsenal to help you live a healthy lifestyle. I was JUST like you. I had decided that I was going to live out the rest of my life fat, but, I thought, I'd be happy. No worrying about dieting, the way I looked...none of that stuff. Well,…

Well, I respectfully put forth my objection, lessertess. I've been on both sides of the spectrum, as I'm certain everyone has, and I will take being obsessed over my health ANYDAY. Once you end up in the hospital at the age of 40 with possible heart attack, you tend to look at life in general in a different way. We who are…

I'd like to join in! My goal is to lose 10 pounds by Feb. 3 and to run at least 4 days a week. Motivate me! :drinker: Final Meltdown is good for a name. I was thinking "Dream Body Pals"...just a thought. Kinda corny, huh? :embarassed:

Just putting in my topics! I gotta make this tomorrow!

Well, if Jello is your "vice" and I were you, I'd have to think twice about binging on that, too! I think if you ask a doctor...ANY DOCTOR... what food is the best thing to "bing eat" with they'll agree with us on the spinach, cucumbers, peas, etc. Just saying... I'm going binge on a BOTTLE OR TWO OF COLD WATER! :devil:…

I've been thinking a lot about running a 5K. You all are inspiring me!

CONGRATS! THAT'S REALLY GREAT! :flowerforyou: :drinker:

I have to agree. I was dropping the weight easily when I was able to go to the gym and run on their treadmill. After my run, I'd do the circuit to cool down. After my son's accident this past Easter, I haven't been able, nor will I be able to for a long time, to get back to the gym and my routine. I miss it so much.…

:brokenheart: I hope you're not a motivational speaker! :laugh: Anyway, all opinions are welcomed. We are all here for support, to offer and receive. Welcome newbie. :flowerforyou:

:drinker: :drinker: AMEN! AMEN! Boy, talk about not being able to see the silver lining, huh? I'll take "binging" on peas, brussels sprouts, cauliflower, spinach ANYDAY instead of the fat and calorie riddled foot that is the "norm" for our unhealthy society. I say BRAVO TO ALL HEALTHY BINGERS! BINGE ON!!!!!!!:drinker:…

GNC Multi Vitamin Vita packs for Active Women. They have the men's formula, too. I love them. I notice when I skip/forget to take them. They're a great value. And, my doctor told me they're one of the best and reccommends them.

Sounds like my pain exactly! I did the R.I.C.E. method all day yesterday. It feels 100% better today. I was going to hit my gym hard today but now I'm kinda thinking I should maybe give it a few days more to completely heal up. What you all think?:ohwell:

Thanks y'all! I feel back to my old self again this morning. Thanks for your advice. Have a great day!

Thanks everyone. Great help. I've been doing the alternating ice thing and trying to take it easy. You guys are great.

RICE method? Enlighten me, please, while I get the bag of frozen peas to strap onto my knee...:wink: :grumble:

kmiss - just catching up to the posts. What exactly or shin splints? My right knee has been killing me the past couple weeks. The pain feels like it is inside the joint just below where the knee bends, sort of to the left inside of the knee. It is driving me crazy! :mad: Aleve isn't helping at all. I wear Nike…

OMG! Y'all! I ache! I "wogged" two miles yesterday! I haven't done that in a LONG time! I did incline of 7.5% at about 3.5 mph. I know that doesn't seem like a big deal but, I haven't gotten those numbers since I was going to the gym before my son's accident. For me, it is a milestone. :bigsmile: After that, I did the EZ…
