  • I have sleep apnea and I love my cpap machine. What a difference it has made in my life. It was such a revelation to me what a good night's sleep was. I had no idea! My advice, don't worry about if your apnea will ever go away or not. Just enjoy a great night's sleep. You'll not only get used to the machine, you will learn…
  • I just bought a scale via Amazon --- Eat Smart scale. Really like it. I blogged about it here, you can read more at: http://jodavidsmeyer.com/blog/2012/07/31/new-scale/ - or - http://www.myfitnesspal.com/blog/checkmatekingtwo

  • Can't believe that I'm actually blogging about my weight loss journey (www.jodavidsmeyer.com/blog). In the past, I've kept my "diets" a secret, because I didn't want people to know when I failed. Now, I'm just putting it all out there because I'm not dieting anymore. I'm changing my life.
  • I'm in the other camp: I lose weight in the summer and gain it all back during the school year. In the summer, I have time to go regularly to the gym and I work out much more. Plus I have time to prepare good, healthy meals. During the school year, including the after-school activities, it's so much easier and…

  • Good luck on the job search! I'm a career changer (20 years in telecommunications before deciding to make the switch to teaching). It's a tough job market for teachers at the moment. Just keep at it. Sign up to be a substitute teacher in the district(s) where you want to be employed. It's a great way to get a foot in the…

  • Oops! Sorry I left off the website. It is http://www.padacheek.com . I couldn't decide which to order, so I ordered two different kinds (the cotton and the micro-fiber). I'll let you know how it works!
  • I talked with my respiratory therapist today. Among other things, she recommended this website of a woman who makes fleece pads for all types of C-Pap machines. I ordered one, let you know how it works! The therapist says that she's recommended this to many of her clients and it's a very simple fix to the problem.
  • I use the Ticker Factory app on my Facebook page. It means that I have to update my ticker here and my ticker there. But, you know, when I lose weight, I don't mind doing it twice!
  • Thank you Sibidian! That did the trick and I was able to enter my weight loss from when I started to today. Yippee! And to all, thank you for your kind welcome. I think I'm going to love myfitnesspal.
