I've always had a passion for reading - probably why I became a librarian, and now a law librarian. I grew up around books, and my sisters and I went to the public library frequently. In college, I was also in the minority of loving the lit classes. Often, I built relations with my professors outside of class so we could…

Some dig the bulletproof coffee - coffee with butter (non-monsanto- organic/ghee etc.). Bulletproof coffee combines fresh brewed coffee with pastured grass fed butter (e.g. Kerry Gold) with MCT Oil (Medium Chain Tryglycerides, which is fancy for a fat that you use relatively quickly for energy and brain function). I know…

Wuthering Heights is one of my all-time favorites. You're right in describing it as beautiful, as eerie as it may be. Can you imagine - an already broody 10th grader discovering this book? That was me. I try to re-read it/most classics every 3-5 years, to see how my feelings grow for the story with my age. And I think I…

Finally! People that understand that reading food labels, and not all things that say are healthy, are healthy. I've eaten clean for awhile now, and my body feels best when I do - but that doesn't mean I don't have wing-night fight-night once in awhile. I stick to what I call the Laura Ingalls lifestyle - I don't buy…

Hello! I'm new to this group. I just finished law school, and am slowly adjusting to have time to not just have to read casebooks. I'm also a librarian, so you can imagine how hard it was for me to put my literary life on hold. Currently, I am reading the 'Atlantis Plague' for fluff adventure reading from the free lending…

Hello people :) I'm looking for new awesome friends that are committed to a healthy active lifestyle. I'm from Michigan, a librarian, fresh out of laws school, am married to a darling Canadian. And I pretty much have an interest in everything.

Ha - I was thinking about this same problem earlier today. Weight front and back squats - check - but the over head.... yeah *kitten* to grass isn't happening. Interesting enough, I can go lower on my snatches. Going to try all the advise on your thread here - thanks for posting.

So - I meant motivation for food logging. I am busy (fulltime law student and I work full time) - but I do work out 5-6 days a week. I used to belong to a box, but couldn't afford it any longer.

My sister gave me the best advise ever. I had a mental block to jump up on a 14" box with an additional 4 inches in plates. I negotiated the box for 45 minutes before I found the nerve to try and jump, but chickened out at the last moment. She reminded me that I played soccer my entire childhood/high school --- and that I…

Karincakes is absolutely right. The rope makes all the difference. I like Rogue's ultra speed or custom jump ropes. Getting a lighter weight will help in getting the rope around faster and/or stringing more DU's together. I'm still getting better at them - but using a different rope changed my perspective in everything -…
