I say try a class, you just might like it. You feel like an idiot the first time because you don't know the routine or steps as well as the regulars, but it gets easier, and you will pick up the moves. And really, none of them are looking at you, or judging you: most of us are too busy feeling stupid and judging ourselves…

^^This You have provided him with the tools he needs, you have shown him you are there for him - now it's got to be on him. Sometimes you have to work extra hard, and not give up. . .and sometimes you need to work even harder and not give up. Kids need to learn this, and sometimes allowing them to fail is a lesson they…

My favorite are mani/pedis, and massages. Last week I went those red shirts in the mall and got a foot reflexology massage - $20 for 20 minutes. . . best 20 minutes I've had in a long time, it was amazing! When I make it to my 4th straight week of running C25K without giving up, I've promised myself new running shoes! The…

Maybe I should switch to endomondo. I've been using RunDouble, which says it interfaces with MFP, and MFP says it interfaces with RunDouble. They are dirty little liars! They've never sync'd even one time!

I'm on week 2, and I've repeated several days the first week and now the second week. Definitely worth continuing and sticking with it. I really look forward to the day I can run a mile in one set!

You work with your own timeline. I dropped the big L word at 3 weeks, about a month in to it, I knew I would spend the rest of my life with him. . . the proposal came after about 2 months of him dropping hints that he was "making plans". Everyone thought we were crazy, but when you know you know. We had both been with the…

^^THIS! Never ever thought I would get married again. We talked on our first date about how we were never getting married again, lol. He proposed 3 months later. . . you just know!!

My fiance has Morton's Nueroma. . .it's like a knot on the top of his foot (kinda between the bones). The one thing that worked for him to relieve the pain was accupuncture (and a good foot massage every now and then).

I'm on week 2 of C25K, and am starting to like it more. I treadmill run, because I can control my speed and because it's miserable cold out. I keep it at a 1.5 incline, because I was told that would prep me more for outdoor running later (which is apparently more tiring). Good luck to you! :)

I have too many excuses afterwork to excercise. So I do go at 5 am. It's not always easy, and I don't always want to, but I've been so much better lately, and I am starting to get in to the routine. I do pound coffee at work, have a little tired spell in the afternoons, and in the evenings I just push through until an…

I'm on Day 28 of the Squat Challenge (rest day, day 29 is 240, day 30 is 250). . . I'm sore, but I, OMG, what this has done for my motivation is amazing! I feel such an amazing sense of accomplishment! I have zero reesults as far as inches lost, and don't know if I can contribut weight loss to it, but it's definitely…

Ive only had one bad breakup ever, so I'm on good terms with plenty of my exes. I would have no problem with my fiance meeting up with an ex for lunch or coffee, I am not a jealous person, and have complete trust in him and his love for me. However, my finace has self-esteem issues, and jealousy issues, so I prefer to just…

iPhones are great for their simplicty, and that whole "everyone has one" - which simply is because Apple makes a great product, and it's an easy choice. Droids are way better, wider variety of phones and features. I LOVE my droid and would never settle for an iPhone. (PS: for all those who stated a reason of dropping their…

Ditto Matt Smith (dr. 11). But I tend to crush all over David Tennant! (Dr. 10) I don't think you need to start from the beginning of the entire show (first dr is the original 1964 version). But definitely start with the beginning of the incarnation. Christopher Eccleston was my first Dr (the 9th dr), and that's where I…

I mak eye contact and smile. Being appreciated is flattering, not scary or insulting. PLUS, I like to think that I made his day a little brighter, thinking that the girl he was checking out actually showed (faked) interest.

I'm on my first week of the C25K. . . and I really appreciate this advice and encouragement, I'm a slow runner but figure if I can do it slowly and complete it, THEN I can work on going faster. Here's my question: my shins are killing me. On fire about half way through. Someone told me once that this is just your muscles…

Since you eat a wider variety than she does, start with what she will eat. And then slowly introduce new things to her. The more you start eating healthier food, the more of them you will start to like them - first you have to become accustom to the taste of real foods not laced in chemicals, sodium, and fat. Her palette…

Friens, sadly, come and go. They are there for a reason, or a season, and now it's time to move on. Remember her fondly, and the great times you have shared. But, honestly, you don't need that negativity in your life. Your path has changed, it's time to get on it and ride it for all it's worth and don't let her hold you…

Letting your friends know the journey you are on, and what your goals are is really key here. Plus, if they all know that you are trying to lose weight, you will feel more peer pressure to order and eat better out with them; not that they have to live by your guidelines, but I find that if I've made this grand announcement…

I committed this morning to doing the 12-week challenge at Gold's Gym. But, as part of that challenge, I'm making my 12 week challenge more about learning to be a runner than just focusing on weight loss. I'm about to marry in to a family of runners, and while my fiance isn't a runner so much, his family does every 5K in…

I'm so sad for you! My one and only sister gets in tonight for two weeks of holiday fun and excitement. My niece gets in on Saturday for a wekk. I have always felt bad that my kids didn't have tons of cousins to play with - but their father's side is too weird to allow to be around my children, and my sister only has one…
