  • Hi - I'm interested, and Connie I agree with you on the lists!
  • Hi Ladies, I am 54 and have RA and Sjogren's syndrome. Some days are better than others. I can avoid the worst of it with an anti-inflammatory diet - when I go off that I can barely walk, but when on it am functional. Yoga was too much on many of my joints, but then I found Pilates. It both stretches and strengthens, and…
  • I won't attest to the Raspberry working, but I do take the Green Coffee capsules once or twice a day before breakfast and sometimes before lunch. It has helped with my appetite and energy levels, so even if it is not a magic pill to cause the weight loss I am feeling better and eating better. I am losing weight at a faster…
  • Remember, this poor kid has to live with what you pick for the rest of his life. 1) Find something that sounds ok with your last name - NO RHYMING.

I'm closing in on 10, and my Sept goals are: *Lose 4 lbs (or more, as I'm a beginner and don't want to be unrealistic) *Drink more water *Increase the proportion of Fruits/Veggies in my…
  • I'm brand new and would love to join your group of friends- and I'm turning 50 this year!
  • Your BMR (Basal Metabolic Rate) is the number of calories your body would use to maintain itself if you did nothing but sleep all day. What you need ot consider is your TOTAL calories burned in a day (which is your BMR plus all the additional calories you use in a day when you are awake and moving). If you look at your…
  • You look Awesome! And anyone who sees you will know it, so if they don't say anything - well sometimes more is said in silence than in words! Great Job!
  • Make the change for you and allow them the option not to change. I have a spouse whose diet, exercise and sleep habits are horrible, but he remains the same weight (but pushing 50 years old is sagging). You CANNOT make him change. You can only change you. Focus on you and stay positive. Food is as addictive as drugs and…
