according to your chart, about a 2 month old horse. It relates better for me to look at it as losing my 13 yo daughter since she weighs 105.

Trust me when I say that most people are far too mired in their own heads to pay that much attention to other people. Unless you get in their way or do something outrageous to draw attention to yourself they'll barely notice. It's a big deal to you and feels like you're the center of attention because you ARE... in your…

1st - 1 hour 40 minutes walking 14th - 2 hours horseback riding 15th - 2 hours walking 16th - 1 hour walking 17th - 1 hour walking 18th - 30 minutes running TOTAL - 8 hours, 10 minutes

1st - 1 hour 40 minutes walking 2nd - 75 minutes walking

me!!! I need that kind of motivation. Between starting a new job and the kids going back to school and all their extra curriculuar ( and therefore mine) activities starting it's been hard to get in my exercise like I should.

Caffeine withdrawal always makes me sick as a dog. I gave up diet sodas permanently (or at least so far) last October and I think I had full blown migraines for a week. Also, if you made a drastic cut in carbs or sugar it can make you feel sluggish and run down. It does pass and you'll get to feeling better and be…

I don't know if you want to add more protein drinks, but the Syntrax powders mix nicely with water and are only 100 calories per scoop. I drink 2 or 3 of them a day.

GNC has an unflavored protein powder that isn't awful. If you keep your receipt you can return it if you don't like it.

The goal is not to make this a diet - the goal is to make healthy choices for the rest of your life. BUT there are always going to be little bumps. I'm not going to say that I'll never eat another cheeseburger and fries, or pasta, or birthday cake. What you want is to be able to recognize when you've eaten something…

I tend to read series books which is both gratifying that I can follow the characters I've grown to love and also incredibly frustrating when I'm waiting for the next books to come out. Outlander, et al by Diana Gabaldon is the one I'm working on currently; for light easy reading I enjoy everything Janet Evanovich. Other…

1977 Dodge Aspen

104 Days of summer vacation... My kids have been watching Phineas and Ferb all morning.

the absolute silence of a house where everyone else is asleep. Heaven!

Outlander, by Diana Gabaldon (starting the series again)

Would love to join, I've read all the comments and I'm still not sure how to get added. NM - had a senior moment. I've got it now.

- Everything has too much sugar. Everything - Salt (see above) - I never, ever drank enough water. - I do not miss sweets as much as I thought I would. - I miss bread, a lot. I am incapable of eating a small quantity of bread, so I don't eat any at all. Yes. Although I "knew" the first three before MFP, watching the…

Disney songs - from the movies and the tv shows, Victorious, Miley Cyrus post Hannah Montana. Can I blame it on my 12 year old daughter?

I love the Syntrax Fuzzy Navel and Chocolate Truffle. I've tried the Body Fortress and the GNC brand and determined that I can't stand any of them with that whey smell. The Syntrax taste good straight out of the jar and have almost no odor.

I don't. People don't need to see an hourly update on every move I make. I share failures and milestone on a FB support group, but it's locked so I'm not spamming all of my friends and family. I occasionally post the results from map my run if I've hit a personal best because I have several friends who run, but even they…

Quest protein bars or greek yogurt

I'll accept any friend requests. :)

"why you would run on a treadmill when you have a perfectly good outdoors is beyond me" I would much rather run outside than on a treadmill, but we're looking at purchasing one. My husband prefers to walk while he watched tv. For me, there are days when running outside isn't really an option so a treadmill would help me…

I get very little support from my family. I had gastric bypass 7 months ago and have lost 75 pounds, and am 95 pounds below my highest weight. My dad thinks my weight loss is wonderful and asks about it every time he calls, but he's had weight issues most of his life and is still going to the gym every day to keep it under…

Congratulations on your surgery and welcome to the club. :) Between the gas they pump you up with and the fluids from the IVs, I'm not surprised you feel bloated. Every time they hook me up to an IV I come home looking and feeling like a stuffed sausage. Keep your fluid intake up and it will clear out in a couple of days.…

I take that back - my 17 yo does have a weight problem. He can't gain enough for the football coach to take him seriously. He's 5'11" and can't get over 160 to save his life. I wish I had his problems.
