hi ladies! hope the day is going well for you:flowerforyou: these first three months of '11 have gone fast...2 more full months of spring and summer will be here. i really need to get exercising so all my shorts fit. too costly to buy new. that's my new motivation. i am going to get clearance today to hopefully walk. will…

If it's ok, I'd like to join this group of 'walkers'! I had rotator cuff surgery (5 wks ago tomorrow) and am eager to walk again...will get the ok first. I have WATP 1-2-3 mile. I use 3 lb wts and have even done 5 lbs when I felt strong. I might start with outdoor walking since I cannot use wts with my surgery arm yet.…

bananas, cuties, apples, red grapes and fresh strawberries when in season!

certain foods cause bloating. you can google this. watch your salt and sugar intake. increase water a little more than what you normally consume... all of this has really helped me.

I measured a potato, skin on, before microwaving, at 168 grams. after it was 143 grams?? it was lighter *after* being cooked....?

thought it was gone, now it is there again...weird

i did it this way as well. focus on time, distance can be worked on later. i did the program last summer and started it over again, working on distance. never completed it due to a shoulder injury. do what you feel comfortable with, and push yourself when you feel ready. give your muscles and bones plenty of time to rest…

sharing in barb's experience with the 'baking cookies' episode...raw dough and baked (3 diff kinds) yesterday afternoon. then dh and ds grill supper, hamburger's (was 1/2 deer meat and 85% ground beef) and beef hot dogs....and some potato chips. i had it ALL...which was too much food, was well aware of it, and just decided…

lily's visit went well...we have to use drops with steroids now to help with the scar tissue. he also wants to check her thyroid, since her mamma has 'hypo', and he wants her to lose '1 lb'. puh. they have always eaten the same brand of dog food since birth, and we don't give them table scraps/human food, cept maybe fresh…

dearest smokin' hot green pepper friends.....so many of us are going thru very extreme, dark times right now....i'm feeling your pains like they were my own. and though this may seem impossible, there is value in our difficulties, and we do come through on the other side. most situations are not permanent. try to stay…
