I rediscovered the pool and swimming after I hurt my knee. It has been many years since I have been in the pool for exercise. I forgot how hard it is.

bump , to come back here later.

Bump to read tonight. I have been debating this for a while.

First, you are not eating for 2. The calorie increase will vary throughout your pregnancy with the highest amount towards the end. The total intake increase is not as much as you think it would be. If you were healthy and active pre pregnancy, there is no reason to continue the same routing during your pregnancy, with some…

Bump for later.

Kohl's, they have a one day sale about once a week! The clearance racks at big box sports stores, Nordstom's Rack {sp?}, and once a year I treat my self to a piece of Lulemon {again sp?} for my birthday.

I came here to see if my symptoms were normal. I am 53, fit, have been regular up till last week. I got my period on Labor day as expected. I still have it !!!!!! I have been bleeding for 12 days. Not heavy, so I am not worried {at this point} about a low blood count or anemia. My poor husband, bad enough living with a…

I started against the wall, to doing it against the bed or kitchen counter while I was cooking. Then I dropped to the floor, doing only one regular pushup and then drop to my knees to finish the set. Every few days I added one more regular pushup to the set before dropping to my knees to finish up the set. I can now do 2…

I found a website called "JogFM.com" You can search by song, artist, or running pace. I am a newbie runner. I put a search for 10 min mile pace and a list of songs came up for that pace. I then went into my Itunes and made running playlists. You can also search by beats per minute. A 10 min mile is approx 150 BPM, {if…

The potions served in European countries are much less than the massive portions you receive here in the US. Keep it healthy, but enjoy the food, and move as much as you can. I always try to find a safe area to run each morning, or at least use the hotel fitness center. I find it easier to keep the calories {except for…

Weight loss is due to intake, and little to do with exercise. Keep your diet healthy and you will, at bare minimum, keep the weight at a maintenance level. If you push the activity level, you may possible rupture internal sutures and possibly hemorrhage. Follow the MD's instructions. Also a high protein diet can help with…

From my own personal experience, you can lead a horse to water but cannot make him drink. Any more than it took years for me to see in the mirror that something needed to be done. When I changed my lifestyle, My husband watched and didn't do a lot to help. But as he witnessed the transformation that was happening in front…

Living Healthy Your medical bills will be minimal , if at all What you save, in over-eating and eating out too much, can be used for healthy at home choices. { a starbucks coffee cost upwards of $3 each, a bowl of homemade oatmeal will cost less than a dollar!} While a gym is nice, exercise can be done at home, in a park,…

I'd let Richard Gere eat crackers in my bed!

The whole reason for adequate liquid intake is to keep your metabolism at a healthy level. As the human body becomes dehydrated, it slows the metabolism down to preserve what liquid it has on board. So a slower metabolism equals a slower weight loss. The human body takes all liquids {except alcohol} and uses the water…

I usually get the flu shot. I used to work in a hospital. 2 years ago, I was not working and just completely forgot about it. I did get the flu that winter. Exactly 6 days after a plane trip! I was down, bedridden for 8 days. It was 3 Weeks before I could say I started to feel normal, and able to keep a whole meal down.…

I felt like I was reading my story. I am scheduled for my first 5K on Sunday. I did something to my knee 4 weeks ago. It still hurts when I exercise. Yesterday, it felt great, today it hurts. So it looks like my first 5K will be a walk. I was suppose to run with both of my sons! I am so disappointed, but we will have fun…

I have the first one. Where do you put the transmitter?

Same goes for the cooktop and oven!

Or otherwise known as Anorexia! Your 20 lb weight loss is due to severe muscle wasting. You are doing yourself a huge disfavor and will end up in the hospital with severe damage to your body.

I have been married 29 years and there are a few things that still remain private, {except for the oops moments.}

You do realize that it was more of the "3 days of staying away from "****foods" that detoxed your body. It had nothing to do with what ever "detox/flush" you ingested.

BUMP, to read all of them tonight To remove tomato stains from plastic, place it out in the sun for a few hours. The stains will disappear.
