I enjoy gardening :flowerforyou: , papermaking and making cards...I used to do counted cross-stitch, but I can't see well enough now to actually enjoy it....oh, and of course, exercise!!!! :wink:

AMEN!!!!!!!!!

:laugh: I am in the same boat...I wish I could get to 10 pounds lost, but I am not giving up...last week I started eating ALL my exercise calories and mixing up my workouts in hopes of seeing the scale move...I also joined the (lack of ) scale group and REFUSE to weigh or measure myself for 2 weeks...Good luck to us…

I am enjoying reading all of these posts, and am feeling a little like a voyeur, so I guess I should contribute...:smile: I feel like I'm writing a personal ad, and I'm not so sure the husband would approve, but here goes...I am intelligent and witty, kind and compassionate, I have an infectious laugh and I am probably the…

I'm a little late, but I'm jumping in for 2 weeks...why???? Because I am hating the scale and loving the tape measure more & more all the time...:angry: I weighed in today, :grumble: but will not hop on again (or take measurements) for 2 weeks....:smile:

:smile: Already read it....and I LOVE pumpkin...

I've upped my calories this week and I'm hoping that I see a difference in the scale...I had not been eating my exercise calories at all...maintaining the 1200 steadily, and since I haven't lost any pounds..(the inches are still coming off), I decided to increase my calories to see if it makes a difference...we need to…

Sorry for your loss...I will be keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.:flowerforyou:

Welcome Back!!! I, too, missed your funny posts...had been worried about Aunt Karen, too...and glad to see she's back as well!!!! :happy:

caloriesperhour.com :smile:

I will be praying for you, MG :flowerforyou:

I have to confess, I'm an arms & shoulders kinda gal, too..., but, nice eyes and a friendly smile will always get my attention...:blushing:

I would just consider it a day off....don't sweat it....it'll be ok, just take a big breath and rest, sounds like your chest cold is kicking your butt....:flowerforyou:

If I admit to reading it, then it's not sneaky...right?????:bigsmile:

I was having the same problem/absolutely no energy for about 3 weeks...then, there was a post about fatigue last week and aside from the carb factor, someone mentioned iron deficiency...so, I bought a low dose iron supplement last Friday and felt the difference almost immediately...just a suggestion... :flowerforyou:

I went through this when my kids were small, and I didn't work...I remained sick for an entire school year...everything the kids brought home from school, I caught and usually had it worse then they did...long story short...the culprit was actually my toothbrush!!!! Throw them away especially if you have been sick..they…

I've been here since late December, and am living proof...have only lost 7 pounds, but more than 16 inches total....I vote that you are right!!! :smile:

Thanks zm...he will be in my thoughts & prayers as well...vee :heart: beautiful card...thanks again

I find myself wanting to do the same...instead I push myself harder...change up my workouts a bit... good luck :flowerforyou:

...here's the really sad part...after working my behind off all week and doing well with my eating...I'm off to sit around a fire and have a couple 96 calorie Miller Lites before I :explode: :bigsmile:

:angry: :grumble: :sad: :noway: :smokin: that pretty much sums up the kind of day I'm having....:frown: I love these guys, though!!!! :ohwell: happy Sunday all...vee :drinker:

I agree with SuniBC...I record it when I do work that's out of the ordinary...for instance, gardening, heavy duty cleaning, etc...check caloriesperhour.com. They list every activity imaginable in the activity calculator...hope this helps...vee :smile:

:noway: ummm...i love dogs...75 year I graduated from high school...this is a pretty interesting thread...glad somebody "bumped" it.......:bigsmile:

I'm from Illinois...living in Mississippi.....:noway:

A doctor once advised that in order to lose weight one should "eat breakfast like a king, lunch like a queen & dinner like a pauper"....that said, I eat most of my calories in the evening.. vee :smile:

:laugh: just read this...and me, too....my only salvation from the chubby hubby right now would be that it's not available where I live currently...(but chips are, of course...:grumble: )

Kelly---the only stupid question is the one that you DON"T ask!!!!! (spoken like a true mom, don't ya think?) :smile:

:grumble: I have noticed the same problem...glad to know it's not just me...the baby shampoo is a good idea...I haven't tried it, but that's all my husband uses...hopefully, this, too, shall pass....:grumble:

:noway: :noway: :noway: Ben & Jerry's chubby hubby....omg
