I have a pair of Saucony minimalist shoes that are the sneaker style. I hate toe socks, so I can't see myself wearing the toe shoes. I use them for walking but not for running, my feet just need way more support than minimalist shoes give (I did go for two runs in the Saucony's, but my legs were killing me after). My…

I check for eye contact, and if they look at me, I'll say hi. If they don't, then I don't. More often than not I'm saying hi to someone.

Found this recipe via pinterest, and have been making it for about a year now. I make two batches each time so I end up with 8 loaves. I love it, and so does my family! I know this is not a crusty European bread, but it's great for sandwiches. http://cranberrymorning.blogspot.com/2011/04/baking-bread-with-whey.html

@111grace, the trick is to not think of it as a diet. You're just changing the way you do thing in regards to food. And motivation is not a stable thing. It has to be determination. So if you stick around this thread very long, you'll see we're very supportive! @Ron, you're right about me running. Just created a calendar…

Only if you give me a step ladder so I can actually be seen! :wink: I have a long way to go to reach my goal, but it's set at 130. But we will see as I get closer. I am currently wearing a 16/18, but from what I've seen other people post on here, I'm a whole lot heavier than a lot of people in that size. So if I get to…

I'm from a "you guys" state, but apparently I'm southern at heart. I say y'all all the time.

I have reached one of my August goals! I ran 7.05 miles on Sunday afternoon! Thought I was going to keel over and die, but I did it.

Breast feeding would be my first choice, did it with both my kids, and why not, it's free! But many women have valid reasons for not breast feeding, and there's nothing wrong with that. My older son had to be switched to formula at 6 months, and my younger son was exclusively breast fed.

No shame in it all! Lots of people walk 5K's.
