  • I love my garmin Vivosmart HR . From the goals to the reminders, to the garmin connect website and all the information that you can view. Graphs of Heart rates during an activity, and during your sleep. Also, it's water proof compared to fitbit HR
  • 8 months coming up for me in a few days. :drinker::drinker: :drinker: :drinker: :drinker: A few of us will be going to las vegas for a nice short vacation. I just remembered that I might have to walk and sit around smokers. That I am not looking forward too, as I can't stand beside a smoker now.
  • Craft - Good for you... in just over 7 months, I have avoided 5650 cigarettes and saved $2053. Good riddance Carl. I don't ever want to figure out how much you cost me in previous years. :laugh:
  • I passed my 7 month mark a couple of weeks ago. Gavini - We all need to tell you or remind you about Carl. I'll start - Carl stinks. He goes with you everywhere. Lots of people hate Carl, and Carl always wants you to go outside when it's freezing or when it's pouring outside. Carl costs you a lot of money, and you never…
  • Re word the story, and duffel bags were thrown over your fence into your garden, $150,000 worth yesterday. All those people would still go and start spending it the next day? I DON"T THINK SO. Do you think that would scare the drug dealers or mobsters who want their $150,000 back? Do all your relatives carry guns too, what…
  • OP didn't have the story right. We are NOT talking about previous owners buring cash on his property. As Jenna mentioned, The cash WAS NOT BURIED. here's link to the story. http://chicago.grubstreet.com/2011/08/man_finds_150000_in_his_garden.html
  • Exactly!! $20-$50 is one thing. $150, 000 You turn it in. All these people that said they would keep the money, and losers weepers. Trying saying that to a bunch of drug dealers with guns or mobsters coming after you for the money. Really, people are that naive that they think they are entitled to it and can spend it? Go…
  • WTG. You're learning what an azz Carl is. He costs you so much money, and what does he give you in return, nothing. Don't you hate when you had to go to the store for Carl late at night, or when he drags you outside in the freezing cold. or When you can't sit through a movie, or a show because Carl drags you outside every…
  • I agree, make it at home if you can. But if you really want to have one from McD's, then take off 1/2 the bun, and enjoy, and as mentioned, you can work it off no problem.
  • Great job krb. Exactly. Stress happens in life. Sadness happens in life. It's how we choose to deal with these emotions and situations. Great job. Lttlebird - it is gross. I know I used to be one that smoked in my car (windows open a little bit), and smoked in my previous house. Now I can't go over to one of my friends…
  • I was a smoker. I went through a lot of the "Excuses/Reasons" that people will use to reason or justify why they smoke. :smile: I smoked for 25 years and I quit Feb, 14th, 2011. I just passed the 6 month mark. This Ebook.. Pdf file was important in me quitting. webpage www.whyquit.com…
  • That's when I knew it myself, and let the healthy part of myself drive it into the "addiction, stress relief" whatever other side of someone that makes them want to smoke. That nasty smell, I would smell 30 feet away, and when someone was close. I can't stand it.
  • I just shivered reading that. In my teens, I was with a guy and two girls. Four of us were driving around at night for something to do. I took them to an area, and we ended driving by a cemetary. One of the girls wanted to stop. We parked, and walked through. I remember she went to a tombstone,and we had to use a lighter…
  • X2. Yes you've talked personal issues, but maybe he was comfortable talking about it. He might not be comfortable talking about this. He is your boss, and I wouldn't do it, unless he opens the door and starts to talk to you about the drops he is taking. Then that's a different story, and I would then think you are ok to…
  • I can never eat breakfast before I go to work. Bad habit I guess. Some idea's I always take fruit. I have made up egg white burritos, and take a few and heat them up at work. Take dry cereal and milk in a container. If I go out for breakfast at work I get a toasted western on brown, no butter. Cook a lot more on…
  • That's awesome. I also have been doing C25k, and use Suz's playlists as well. I enjoy all of her podcasts. She did a good job with some good songs. I go back and forth between week 5 and week 6.
  • Take it out on some gum or some straws. LOL Seriously. My first week I sucked air through a straw (like it was a cigarette), and chewed on straws. Drink lots of water, and chew gum. It gets easier.
  • Good morning everybody. I wanted to wait until today... Few weeks ago, I went camping with the boys. Lots of drinking and smoking going on. I had several temptations through the saturday night (when there was more alcohol involved) Several times, I had cigarettes in front of me. I even had one outside of the pack, sitting…
  • I'm going to throw in my 2 cents to this discussion. When your body is more acidic, (Ph Level ), your body produces more cholesterol to line the insides of your veins and arteries to prevent the acid from burning through the wall of your veins/arteries. Hmmmmmmmm I wonder which gets your body more acidic, meat, or…
  • I have greens powder in my protein shake and I don't taste it. I use 1/2cup - 1 cup chocolate soy milk 1 scoop chocolate protein powder 1/2 banana couple strawberries. 1 scoop of greens powder. (Progressive Vege greens) edit: found this on internet in case someone wasn't aware.
  • If you have a pair, ok, but I would suggest not going out to buy a pair just to use it for exercising. I bought two pairs over the years.. FIrst one was cheap, and the wheels sucked. They were crap. 2nd set I bought a pair of hockey inline blades. Now I've played hockey .ICE hockey for 30 years. I thought I'd use the…
  • I never thought about that with turkey bacon.. I had it once, and didn't like it. I enjoy pork bacon once every 3-4 weeks on the weekend with egg whites and no bread. Your description reminds me of hot dogs, which I won't have anymore as well, and now will be reminded the same with turkey bacon. <Sigh> Turkey sausage, with…
  • BBQ. Meatloafs Chicken in the oven. Bacon and eggs. Like other said.. DOES HE WANT to learn. Some guys will put off cooking, and learning to cook because they know their wife will just go ahead and do it. I agree start off with his favorite foods.
  • it's normal. I've gotten stretch marks on the inside of both arms near the arm pit.
  • That sounds like some people that read and post in the forums.
  • Thank you!.. Now we just have to make sure parents stay parents and be the boss. Granted there are certain things that some kids won't like (but they try)... I have a friend.. in his 40's. Talking bout food. he says "Oh I don't like that"...... I asked have you ever tried. What do you think his answer was. "nope" He's…
  • apples, bananas, grapefruit, strawberries, lettuce, onion ,carrots,tomato chicken, beef, pork, Chocolate soy milk egg whites and flavored egg whites (southwestern is awesome)
  • I've heard some places you actually need a buzzer or a bell. Anyways, quick google search gave me these two links. http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/safety/vehicle/bicycle/rules.htm http://www.cityofmadison.com/bikeMadison/plantrip/
  • When I'm doing jumping jacks, or jogging and I feel the strap moving around, that's when I know it's a good NSV and it's time to tighten up the strap.
