  • Great post!! I have this problem with a few items. Never thought of darts in the waist. D'oh. Thanks for the info and the pics and great work all around!
  • I think PBS still has early morning workouts. I remember there was one called chair aerobics that would be low impact. Her doctor(s) should also know what's available.
  • Alright everyone settle down. I see both sides of the coin here. 1. The Op does have a fantastic sense of humor that I can testify to. 2. In SOME ways the ad is good, after all here we all are talking about it. 3. On the other side it is surprising that a team of people wouldn't foresee the outcry and send this to print.…
  • To be honest and factual. I did say, "Thank you, but no, I'm full from dinner." :wink: :laugh: Southern manners run strong in my blood. I was being a lady, my mother in law was being a demon. No, really, she's a demon... :devil: :laugh: :laugh: I hadn't disclosed my lifestyle change to anyone, my hubby threw me under the…
  • OMG NOW I WANT REESES CUPS... WILL YOUR DIABOLICAL PLAN TO RUIN ME NEVER CEASE! ((LMAO))
  • Hi there... I heard there was cake?? Great post OP. Although, when you tell your mother in law that you don't want a slice of cake thank you, but no... and then she brings you the biggest slice she can manage, twice the size of everyone else's with three scoops of ice cream and a wicked grin, you know she's up to…
  • That is genius! "If you don't lift heavy... you're welcome at Planet Fitness." Sorry, had to. I know people who go there and are plenty happy with it. It's just kind of what they're known for. Just being funny.
  • THIS It appears "skinny-fat" will be the new abused term on everyone's mind. One friend was actually skinny fat, size 4 and almost had a heart attack in her 20's. She's now a little larger but lower fat percentage and looks/feels great. Only problem, people all the time ask her how she got "fat". She didn't get fat, she…
  • I love this!! It so explains how I can look amazing in the bedroom mirror and like crap five minutes later in the bathroom mirror.... lighting and angles... ugh.
  • Sure, all the above but PS: You look fabulous!
  • Or a large tumor removed. Friend of a friend did something similar, starting raving about all the weight she lost in two weeks. Went back to eating normal, weight back up and depressed. It's called yo-yo for a reason. If there was a magic pill, soup, drink, sex move, machine, etc out there that transformed fat to skinny in…
  • Did the Run or Dye in Perrysburg. First 5k, first dyed event, and so much fun. I walked the whole thing at a fast pace. I'm not allowed to run with my knee problems. I was on a huge high the rest of the day. I'd do it again in a heartbeat! And, yes, definitely consult your doctor!
  • My ground turkey comes direct from a local butcher. No processed crap. I love buying local!
  • When mixing mine: ground turkey that "w" sauce diced onion Chia paste (I let the chia seeds soak in the water, instructions on the back of the bag) salt pepper diced garlic a tiny tiny bit of dijon mustard. That's my basic. Pretty much have fun mixing it up. You can also take any "hamburger" recipe and roll into balls for…
  • First, sorry for the late reply. Second, take a big deep breath and let it go. You can do this. You have the motivation. You are amazing and you will get there. Start small. Track your food intake, set some realistic goals, and tell yourself every morning that you are amazing and you are worth it and you will get there.…
  • Just to be clear I do control myself and don't overindulge all the time. But, at least for me, I've found that if I say I can't have something, like ice cream, I will only want it more and I'm miserable. So I let myself have a little bit. I get the small cone not the giant one, and if that puts me way over my calories for…
  • If I could smack all my female friends that yell out, "OMG You can't order a cheeseburger, you're on a diet!!" I know they're trying to be helpful and just don't understand. I'm doing something I can stick with for the rest of my life with my goal being that I am healthy and happy in my skin, whatever size it wants to rest…
  • Toledo Area, Metamora. West of Sylvania Twp, South of Adrian MI, North of Swanton and East of Lyons (If that helps :laugh:) Was born in Norwalk Ohio (most of my family is still there), traveled around the world all my childhood (USAF base brat). Went to high school in Swantucky, Went to Ohio University and Owens CC. I…
  • Strip clubs are a fine couples activity. Everyone is nervous the first time. It's something you won't know how you'll react until you're there. Just stick together, maintain open and HONEST communication, and enjoy the moment. You're there as a couple, you leave as a couple. It's basically a bar with half-naked people…
  • Agree if I get one more person trying to hook me on shakeology... :noway: I even told one, "Sorry, I don't do fads". They actually tried to give me a lecture on why it wasn't a fad... :grumble:
  • My mother-in-law. Most recently after almost breaking a few picture frames, she suggested I go under the knife like her daughter did. "She lost inches in just a few hours!" Nut case... Oh and did I mention she was over unannounced and uninvited because she wanted to see pictures from our time spent down South and was mad…
  • I just remember what my Doctor told me years ago. "If there was a magic pill, liquid, or easy contraption that caused weight loss... We'd all be size zeroes. The only cure is dedication, attention to detail, and hard work." On a side note, I recently found a loaf of bread with artificial sweetener in it. Really, in the…
  • It may be un-Ohioan to say but after many many years of Cedar Point, I don't go anymore. It costs loads of money to wait in line for hours getting shoved around by people... I'd rather spend next to nothing to hide through our many parks, although I'm not a fan of crowds or overly extreme rides anyway. Lol
  • Hello Toledo area here as well. We've also got great metroparks scattered around the area AND a large zoo AND the Art Museum. There's a few great areas. Cedar Point and the Islands aren't far. Now if only we didn't have Winter, it'd be amazing. :laugh:
  • I've done three of these with friends and now they all joke that my butt defies gravity and directs traffic... :laugh: I think I'd better skip this time before it gets its own zip code. :flowerforyou: Good luck to everyone
  • Radioactive - Imagine Dragons http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iO_WxYC34eM My songs know what you did in the dark - Fallout Boy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LkIWmsP3c_s I think it's the beats... I like good bass to pump up. And of course, there's always Eye of the Tiger - Survivor!!!…
  • hahhahaha YES!!!
