FARSCAPE! and Firefly, ok I'm a geek... M.A.S.H. best show ever made, The Office!!

Christian! however, not Baptist.

Kindness, not to be confused with "nice". Kindness is a heart issue, nice is surface. Intelligent and introspective, calm with a fun streak. Solid natured... not a drama queen. Looks don't matter as long a these other things are in play.

So what lifting program do you use? If you haven't seen the scale move due to muscle gain, have you been seeing it move due to fat loss? Or has the loss stalled, but your body shape is changing? Right now I would be happy with a bit of body shape change!

For strength training, read these: 1. Starting Strength: Basic Barbell Training by Mark Rippetoe 2. Practical Programming for Strength Training, by Mark Rippetoe and Lon Kilgore For nutrition while strength training, read this: 1. http://thefitcoach.wordpress.com/2012/07/29/584/ It is going to seem like a ludicrous amount…

I appreciate the replies all! Some of it leaves me with a lot more questions however. lol I really need to go do more reading on the subject!. So.. as far as I can tell, trying to figure out how many calories you are burning when lifting is difficult at best, so how do you really know if you are eating at a deficit?…

it's over 9000!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! no really, I have no idea, I've never taken an IQ test. But my kids are smart does that count? it counts to me :D

Question: I've been inspired to starting lifting, however I've noticed most of the picture posters, it seems they started lifting once they were at or near their desired weight, I still have at least 30 more pounds to lose. Is there anyone that started lifting with many pounds left to lose? and if so how did it go for you?…

Ok YOU are my new inspiration, as I am also 48. Although I started and still am quite a bit heavier than you, but still, I'm losing weight and you really make me think seriously of lifting!

@Lady_Senie omg Tyr Anasazi (Keith Hamilton Cobb) ticker?! god he's hawt! And gay, so there goes my fantasies *sigh... but he's awfully nice to drool over.

hahahaa!!! I'm with you on that last one!!! two more years and I can do that. :P If I got $1m. I would send my boys to college... it's sad to have highly intelligent kids that can be anything they want to be, and watch them have to struggle so hard to get a 2nd rate education.

I saw this a few months back!! Very inspirational, one of the best! He is amazing for sure.

age is creeping up on me and freaking me out... my oldest son is getting married next month and I want him to be proud of me instead of slightly embarrassed by me.. and being a milf would make me smile. Not that I would act on it.. but every woman likes to get the "interested"look

this is so sad and scary!! Is no one responsible for their own actions anymore? Who can I sue because I'm overweight!!! I love me some Dove chocolate, where's a lawyer!?

Very well done!! and you look so gorgeous in that dress, I love that dress!

I've spent many years in Customer service, as a simple respect and kindness issue, I would ask EVERYONE, to remember cashiers are people.. treat them as such! The one thing that truly would irk me and really make me feel "less than" is when a customer would be on their phone the entire transaction and never even make eye…

started lvl 2 yesterday.. yikes the plankish moves are difficult and I know I'm just not doing them all correctly! but boy today my butt is sore! lol

honestly.. just eating huge portions of everything.. lots of soda and always 2nd helpings, sometimes 3rds.. I gained 15lbs in a month!

yes... mine started before I even hit 40, at 37 my eyes went to hell, but then they weren't great before that. I'm 48 now, and what I find the most annoying is, as you mentioned, it takes forever for things to heal! And that it takes forever to get results from diet and exercise. End of January I changed everything in the…

This.

well said and thank you for saying it. :)

Mashed potatoes and roast with tons of gravy!! peach cobbler after.

Totally this!! Add to that kind. Big difference between "nice" and "kind".

Hi :) I'm 48, and would be glad to lend support! Although I do tend to be the more quiet type. It's only been this year that I managed to stick to any kind of diet, and the only time I've finally stuck to exercise! What is different this time than any other time before for me? I have no idea, except motivation and God.. I…

Yes. As a Christian I would and do work out on the Sabbath, Christ died/ascended to fullfill the law.. we no longer need to live by any of the OT laws as Christians, that includes the 10 commandments and observing the sabbath.

Sansa is basically to me a "nothing" character. She does nothing except be mousey. She doesn't seem to want to better her circumstances enough to start doing anything.... Look at Margery, she knows how to use her power and does so. Sansa has power, potential power as both a beautiful female and the "key to the North".. She…

I weight in and measure weekly on Sunday mornings before eating anything.

oh my!! Work on fixing that just as hard as you've worked at losing weight!! You have done so so well! How you see yourself, loving and appreciating yourself is even more important than the weight! Be proud, you should be! and build more good self feelings from that. Maybe, as sappy as it sounds, start a thankfulness book…

This!!!! Draw a boundary, don't let her cross it, people treat us how we train them to treat us. If you allow the trash talk, she'll keep doing it. Also, counseling, for you and her if she would ever consent to go. Learn your value and don't let her shake you from that knowledge. And last.. forgiveness and compassion.…

Oh add me to friends list please! I could use the support also :) I am on Day 4, having trouble with doing all the jump ropes, jumping jacks and pushups.. hopefully I get better at this! I also have a lot of trouble figuring out what my calories should be and so I think I usually eat too little.. can't quite make myself…
