  • Sadly fruit is more pricey than staples - but it is doable. I buy a box of stuff to send a friend in another state every couple of months - $50 gets me nearly 50 pounds of food - enough to feed her, hubs & kid for atleast a month. Beans, rice, canned tuna/chicken/beef. Frozen veggies. Pasta. Oats. Peanut butter, saltines,…

  • I sweat horribly @ the gym, but there, I don't care. I'm there to work my *kitten* off, I just make sure I wipe everything down I touch (even the floor in some cases). My problem is within the last 6 months, even in a 70f room I'm hot & sweating. In fact it's so bad, that even when I was at my heaviest, I didn't sweat this…

They are buggy, sometimes don't work. The cell app does, but sometimes it refuses to talk to the watch (without a reboot). Blarg :(…

  • Yes I do.. thankfully my hubs has a perfect round bubble *kitten*. AND yes, he hates it when I refer to his rear as a "bubble butt" (*psst - he also has women's hips, which he hides under cargo pants*pouts*) but he DOES have a cute round bum. LOL! *edit cause i no spell*

  • sadly it's all too easy. i lost over 90, i've regained 60 back. how? injuries, improper eating, unable to exercise and depression. Plus everything became more of a punishment than anything helpful. Sounds stupid & minor, but it isn't. I was in the gym 5-6 days a week & low carb - I broke myself. I've had this happen before…

  • Master Level Cube hell - STEEL VAULT! My dept sits in an old bank vault, complete w/ 10" thick door, zombie lights (which we killed) and 3 ac vents in (2 zones) and 2 outs. You honestly need a sweater in summer. Oh and no windows. Best part - the door closes, but can ONLY be opened from inside. :laugh:

  • yeap, i normally do a similar workout to yourself, but weights before cardio and sometimes that last bit of cardio is almost too much. I have cut it down to 20min some days, but often aim for 30min. It happens, but just keep going - anything is 100% better than NOTHING
