When people use shorthand text language instead of taking the 2 extra seconds to spell out the words. Drives me crazy! "Goin 2 eat pizza 4 dinner" Grrrr It's one thing if you are actually texting and in a hurry but not appropriate when you are actually using a keyboard.

Maybe deep water swimming?

bump - I can't get youtube at work so I want to flag this to watch later!

It is not vegetarian though, just non processed foods. There is also a bi-monthly magazine that I get called clean eating that has lots of recipies and usually…

yuck! I had that when I was pregnant and it is HORRIBLE! My naturopath put me on calcium / magnesium supplements (the magnesium being the important one for restless leg) and it seemed to help. Helped enough to let me get some sleep at least.

I've never heard of it before but a google search brought this up - seems pretty informative. http://www.educate-yourself.org/cancer/benefitsofhydrogenperozide17jul03.shtml

yuck! Seriously? I had no idea. Totally not worth it in my opinion. Stick to the brew coffee.

OMG that skinny taste blog sounds amazing. I just looked quickly and already boookmarked 8 recipies!

Mango salsa. I make this all the time for BBQ's and everyone loves it. Basically cube a bunch of mango's (peeled) and mix with fresh cilantro and chopped jalapenos and a splash of lime juice. The recipe also called for onions but I don't like them so I skip it but you could add those. It is a great summer side dish - sweet…

I took a look today and it is 'tuff stuff' so I went to their website and of course it doesn't say anything. I asked the gym manager and she wasn't sure either and guessed more like 5 lbs so I put 25 lbs on either side for my 50 lb squat. It was hard but not too bad. Here's another question though. The fact that I am using…

Hilarious! I was just about to post this exact same question when I saw the heading Sugar in the list. I also go over in my sugars - a Lot but it is because I eat strawberries and mango's. I wasn't sure if this is ok or not. I am also exceeding a lot of my vitamin requirements (not to mention the anti-oxidants) so I know…

Yeah - I checked on the machine and it didn't say anywhere. I think it muct be closer to the 15 lbs mentioned earlier. I can easily lift it with one arm. I have fairly strong arms from hauling around my two kids, but not that strong! :-)
-
Thanks guys! Unfortunately with two wee kids at home I can't come in on my days off so it is just 2 x a week but I do a bootcamp on Monday's as well (at work). Maybe I can get the hubby to coordinate his schedule so I can pop in on Sundays or something. I feel good after this morning though!
-
Hmmm, I feel funny posting here as it looks like I am the only girl but here goes. I was directed to the stronglift site by one of you guys in another post and read through everything. I decided to give it a go. Cardio and faffing around with weights is just not doing it for me. I did my first day today and had a few…

Awesome! What a great post. :-)

There is a member on this site who often quotes from this website.... http://stronglifts.com/stronglifts-5x5-beginner-strength-training-program/ Check it out. I have read through it and it sounds very good. I also signed up to get the free report about weight training…

3.5 miles for me today

I'm in!

I am just marking this to read later - I am also interested in the response!

lol, yep. It's bad enough seeing the pink urine in the toilet where it is mixed with lots of water. I freaked one day after seeing it in my kids potty. I thought there was something seriously wrong until I realised it was just really pink because there is no water in there to dilute the colour. It's not bad for you though…
-
Yep. I do all the grocery shopping. My husband has offered to do it but I know he doesn't read labels like I do and often gets the worng stuff. Even when I am specific with brands he often buys something else that he thinks is just as healthy (i.e. smart pasta as opposed to whole grain stuff). I just stay firm and say I'll…

20 - 25% for an average female. Closer to 20% is better.

My Dr recently told me that it takes 4 - 5 weeks of taking iron supplements for it to have an effect on your iron levels. I was having the same issues and went to see him. He said to take a supplement consistantly or take a multivitamin that has a small amount of iron in it.

Wow! Nice spreadsheet. You must work in IT. :-)

Count me in too. I'll download the form now.

Fear and Loathing is right. This is not a fine for being fat. It is a fine to those who are on free medicade for not following medical advice. I think it is perfectly fine, if your Dr is telling you to do something to live a healthier life and you don't do that - why should everyone else pay for all your health issues?…
-
Wow, those are amazing pictures. Your wife was beautiful in her before pictures as well but her after pictures are truly inspiring! Thanks for sharing.

I had that happen after my first son. I lost the weight very quickly, almost with no effort. I decided it was because of the breastfeeding. Second time around it was not so easy and I couldn't figure out why. Completely separately from that my Dr sent me in for Thyroid tests as he thought mine was a bit enlarged. Turns out…

I also have read and loved all of Tana French's books. Apparently there is another coming out in August...... I love this thread, I have my amazon wishlist open as I read it and am adding loads to it to remind me later. Thanks!
