Boring work and having internet access are a bad (really good) combo! The ALT + TAB buttons have become my best friends.

Amazing progress! Looking really great!

Maybe take him on a nice date, sort of a destination gift. Or, not sure what you're looking to spend, but a little road trip and stay overnight somewhere. It would be great to pick someplace/thing where you would not typically be into going, but he would. Like, if he is into hiking, do a hike and go to a nice dinner after.…

Looking awesome! Great job.

Looking great! Congrats!!!

I, too, am bored. I do medical editing, and I'm checking references right now...or should be, anyway! Dreading the mammogram I have to get later. Sorry if TMI. But I just want to get out of here to go home and swim, dammit!:grumble:

Before I had begun to lose weight, my boss (who is totally known for saying the most horrible things to people) came into the room as I was comiserating with a coworker about our weight loss struggles. We were discussing exercise and my boss looked at me and said, "you don't exercise at all, do you?" Um, actually, I do,…

Amazing progress!! You're looking good, lady!:flowerforyou:

Great news! Congrats. I am a couple of points away from normal, and cannot wait!!!

You're doing great!!!

That's wonderful! Congrats on your success so far!!!

Agreed! My man is thrilled with how amorous I am now.:love:

Looking great! Congrats!!!

Amazing transformation! You look great! Congrats.

My bf makes the weighted hoops, but sadly enough, I can't seem to keep it going! I could do it as a kid, but not now. I will just have to keep practicing, bc everyone I know who does it loves it--and yeah, it is sexy, too!:bigsmile:

It's an actual book--a trilogy bound together, really: Rabbit, Run; Rabbit Redux; and Rabbit is Rich by John Updike. Loving his writing style!

:heart: The great book I'm reading (Rabbit Redux by John Updike) :heart: Summer weather :heart: Enjoying cheating with food last night and being able to start fresh today :heart: MFP :heart: Being good at my job

You look fantastic! Great job and thanks for sharing!!!

Awesome post! So so true!

Not sure if this is what you are looking for, but of course, there are a ton of DVDs. If you have Netflix, there are a number of streaming workouts you can get on there. Also, you can find a wealth of exercise videos online. I like to mix it up, so this works well for me. Sometimes, I just do my own thing, with a mixture…

:heart: The weight I've lost because of my new lifestyle and MFP :heart: My wonderful boyfriend who I cannot wait to spend my life with :heart: Our beautiful yard and pool :heart: Having a good job with nice people :heart: Summer weather and fun :heart: Having our own home :heart: Looking forward to a fun party Sat.…

It's one thing to give a little encouragement, but it sounds like, as you said, she's holding you back. Don't let her do it. By now, you've corrected her form and pushed her enough times for her to know the deal. If she's not going to pull her weight so to speak, you shouldn't have to lose out on your precious workout…

You look fabulous, and kudos on taking the necessary steps to live a healthy, long life! Thanks for sharing--you're inspiring.

Good for you. It takes a lot of willpower. You should be proud!

That's great! Enjoy your day feeling slim and trim. :flowerforyou:

Ugh, that's annoying. Well, look at how many people are overweight or even obese, and how normalized that has become because it's so prevalent. Maybe compared to most of the people around you, you look "too skinny," but you can rest assured that you look great and your body is healthy and strong!

P-Funk! Live stuff is the best with them. Very upbeat! Also, Black-Eyed Peas and other dance stuff, or classic soul.

Yes, good tips. But mmmmmmmm, the cheddar biscuits are insanely good! With those, my discipline would be out the window before the meal even came.

We all have bad days. Don't let it become so bad that it pulls you out of your game. Work out as much as you can this afternoon or this evening to get rid of some of those calories, and vow to do better tomorrow, and you will! You enjoyed a couple of treats--so what? Now beating yourself up about it won't change anything,…

Great, thanks so much for posting! I am bummed bc I used to have Verizon, which had all kinds of workouts on demand, and now that I have Optimum, they don't offer the Fit Channel and I can't find any. This is great!
