I understand the frustration from many of you that what she said to me as a complement was derogatory to the stranger in the mall. Had my daughter said this in ear shot of the woman it would have been a different story. Too, if we had not been discussing how awesome her shoes were and it was not obvious that the woman took…

Yesterday I made pumpkin muffins. This morning before work I folded two loads of clothes. When I get home, after making supper. I will be scrubbing my counter tops & stove top, then vacuum and mop the entire house (this usually takes me almost an hour because I'm so picky).

I don't go to the gym, I go walk around an outdoor road/trail, but being as I go on my lunch it keeps me going. Too, the other admin goes to the gym daily to train with a body builder & all of the agents know that I go out to the trail. Them asking me if I walked/ran today or if it's nice or bad weather keeps me going.

After making pumpkin muffins & pumpkin cookies this past weekend, I am definitely making this!!! Thank you for sharing!

There are several songs on my ipod that push me really hard while I'm working out that in the normal realm of things, I would NEVER listen to!!! My favorite is "I'm sexy and I know it", although it's on the radio. There's one song (and forgive me, someone gave me their workout cd & I just put it on my ipod with no clue)…

Jogging, definitely! I'm not making it too far yet, but I have the desire & drive! I am so jealous of those of you have listed kayaking. I have always thought it looked fun, but I have the weakest arms around so I'm always scared to try. I also say if I could paddle with my legs or hips, I'd be set! :laugh:

You can add me. I turned 40 a few months back and I definitely think it takes more. I've sent you a friend request.

4.5 miles today for Team C...... Everyone is doing so great!!!

Bill Miller's is a definite. It is my DH's favorite BBQ place & it's fairly inexpensive. I know a lot of people LOVED Joe Cotten's, but I never was that crazy about it, I think though because you don't get sides. When it burned the owner supposedly was going to have it rebuilt in a hurry, but I haven't heard anything since…

I'm in San Angelo. I didn't know if that should be considered West Texas or Central Texas.

Team C: 6.5 miles today!!! :drinker:

I swear by Ziacam tablets when I feel a cold coming on and don't have time to be sick, especially, if other members of my family have been sick.

bump for later....I may be in Texas and I made it through walking/jogging in 102* heat, but I'm worried about the winter when it gets down to the **gasp** 50's. :blushing:

Happy Birthday, to your Marine. I can't wait to see the pics from the ball on Saturday!

I need to get back in the habit of walking our dogs. We have 2 German Shepherds & 2 English Bulldogs. If we walk the bulldogs, we can only make about 1/2 mile before her breathing gets out of control. I swear, I'm going to get her a portable oxygen tank! The Shepherds love to go for walks, but the older one (he's 9)…

I turned 40 in July and it seems within one month had put on almost 10 pounds and now, it's being pretty resistant to departure. I had heard about metabolism stopping over night, but really!!??

This was excellent!!!! I agree with one of the other posters, it would be excellent with chopped jalapenos!!!

Team C: 4 miles today!

The simple honesty of children.

Like the others have said, only you know the relationship that you and your mother have and how she would respond to the letter. With that being said, I have said those exact things to my own mom over and over, but in my head. We've talked about each point individually, and she knows that if she would drop even 50 pounds…

I've been sipping 64 plus ounces of water a day for over 9 years (yes, some days I don't get the full 64 & some I go over). My body did not adjust to that amount of liquid, I adjusted to having to pee every 10 minutes (maybe I exagerate, but it is frequent) or stop drinking 2-3 hours prior to knowing that I will not be…

Week 2 for Team C: 3 miles today!

:flowerforyou: To you ladies who are 5'4", some questions :) 5 feet 4 1/2 inches (don't forget that 1/2 inch!) - what kind of build are you? (small, medium, large) Medium built - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear? 133 lbs/ size 6 - what is your goal weight and why? I'd like to be a…

Double posted...Sorry! :drinker:

To you ladies who are 5'4", some questions :) - what kind of build are you? (small, medium, large) - how much do you currently weigh and what size pants on average do you wear? - what is your goal weight and why? - how old are you (if you don't mind sharing) - and have you had any kids? (I know from experience that can…

Team C--- 6.5 miles today!!!

My husband had some problems with his shoulder/back this spring. His PT told him that man is not meant to run unless he is chasing his dinner or being chased for dinner! He recommended either walking or elliptical, but did not recommend running for anyone!

Acclimate yourself to the heat. I walk/jog on my lunch 2-4 miles a day. I started off in the spring when the temps were in the 80's. I actually made it through the hottest Texas summer on record! I would walk from 1-2pm; when I would start my walk it would be 99, when I was done it would be 102. I didn't think I would make…

Thank you for all of your replies. I am limited on the amount of time that I have to work out as I do it on my lunch, so ultimately, my goal is to go further in the same amount of time. When I walk it, I am able to keep a steady pace going up the hills and I do notice that my HR is about the same at the top of the hill as…

Team C: 3 miles for me (& I jogged 2 of it!) today!
