That's why people drink alcohol through a straw because you drink faster. Be careful though, it's easier to drink through a straw because you can still breathe. But you're also sucking in air while drinking. It makes you bloated and yucky feeling if you do that too much.

I have to agree with Ali, I don't want people to see me walking. I don't think it's shallow, it's a self concious thing with me. And I also try to concentrate on how awesome I'm going to feel when I do it. I'm also trying to train for a half marathon in August, but it's really not going well. I'm just not ready to give up…

I think I am the one person in the world that doesn't like Ellipticals. However, when my parents bought theirs, they went to a trainer to be fitted (apprently like treadmills, your height and stride matter). I remember the trainer telling them that the proper way to use them was to make sure your entire foot, heel to toe,…

I don't have kids, but my sister swears her hips are un even from carrying kids on her hip...Her oldest is 16 and the youngest is 5 so basically for the past 16 years she has since she still carries the youngest sometimes.

ok I hit the button twice so the last m,essage posted twice....since I can't delete it, this is my edit :flowerforyou: I love that little flower face

It'll be ok....You're not giving a speech about something that's boring the crowd. And it's not like you have to memorize things. You just have to get up there and talk about the people you love. :flowerforyou: You can pcik a good memory to start with, or how they've affected each others' lives. You'll be fine and just…

Thanks everyone...:flowerforyou: The car was parked so it's just a little dent and more importantly the other driver is ok, just upset with herself. I'm lucky it wasn't worse, and that I have a car to drive in the first place...many people dont. I just needed to joke about it. But I do have another question...what's the…

If I'm at Starbucks and I get a Non fat DeCaf Mocha Latte...and someone backs into my car, do I have to count the Latte?

The amount of calories listed is to reach your goal of how many pounds per week you entered. You might have gone over your food limits, but was still low enough to lose weight, just not your optimal per week.

Hi-- Thanks for posting this. I got some new ideas too. :happy: Alot of what was posted is what I listen to also. Other than I'm not much of an 80's fan. However, I'd like to add the "All the right reasons" album from Nickelback. The songs there have good steady beats too. 99% of my workouts are running (hey, I'm in the…

I have the same problem. I can have 600-800 calories left and still over protein. I know that sounds like I'm exagerrating, but it's real. I'm struggling with it.

Ok, I've read all the posts about eating all your calories. But I'm over my protein usually with 5-600 calories left. Can anyone suggest some low protein foods...preferrably not vegetables...I eat at least a salad a day and vegetables (corn, greenbeans, etc.) with dinner. I'm not trying to be picky, just looking for…

That's exactly how I gained my freshman 15, and my sophmore 15, and my junior....I have a grad degree...you get the point...:tongue: I lost 70 lbs when I left college. :happy: Anyway, now when I am doing work at home or studying for classes for work, I have the same problem. What I do....(not saying it will work for you)…

Oh wow, he's precious! That's what my mom calls my two doggies too! :flowerforyou:

Hello, I am not the best runner by any definition of the word, however, after joining the military ten years out of high school and having to run as an adult I definitely learned it's much harder than as a teenager. The two most important things I've learned are the simplest. First, the shoe stores that have the computers…
