  • I have grilled veggies on a BBQ and they are awesome that way. Bananas with just a little cinnamon Pineapple Apple just a little cinnamon Basically you want to cook them on high heat. Add cinnamon to fruits that aren't as sweet. I even saw them say you can do with Watermelon or oranges. using the broiler in the oven would…
  • My parents always told me "don't eat that" or "you will get fat" or whatever it was. It doesn't matter how close you are with your child the more you push the worse it gets. I have horrible eating due to my parents. I don't care what the relationship or the situation, I am 47 and when my mom says something about me gaining…
  • I have 2 girls also a Kiki was adopted recently and is a bit chubby and my Fudge who has been here for 8 years is skinny. Even though I leave the food out, Kiki has lost weight. Of course part of that is Fudge chasing her, poor Kiki hates it, and runs for the high ground. Its really funny. FYI, cats can have girl fights…
  • Supernatural ROCKS!!! I am stuck on season 7, need to catch up but my life has gotten in the way (well my job)
  • That sounds like a great workout, maybe you should do it everyday?
  • Star Wars (the originals) Firefly Monty Python - The Holy Grail Fifth Element Harry Potter Lord of the Rings The Hobbit Indiana Jones Edit: Forgot Any Mel Brooks movie :)
  • My skin is better since I drink tea, but that is about it. I use looseleaf tea and drink different kinds, Oolong, Green or White. Some black but its not my favorite. I also drink Herbal tea, especially Mate :) Like I said only my skin is better. Well the peppermint tea does settle my stomach.
  • One day a month, sometimes 2 I have to skip the workout because the flow is so unbelievable that I might not make 15 minutes without a change. unless I wear an adult diaper, not comfortable for class. Also it can be unpredictable, normal one minute and the next just way over the top. FYI, it doesn't mean I wont' workout at…
  • I am total nerd, I am creating computer training for France and the only French name I could think to use was Jean-Luc Picard.
  • I want to go there!!!
  • My daughter got the chicken pox prior to me having to make the decision on the vaccine. I also said no to Gardisil, girls have extreme reactions and the prevention is so small.
  • I tried working with a nutritionist to get my diet on a healthy track and lose and she told me: You look fine and don't really need to lose weight. You can replace fruit with a candy bar if you want. I left and never looked back
  • My husband "Can't you just take one of those pills?" "Are you going to eat all that?" when looking at big plate of veggies (like 200 calories) "I made sausage for dinner" Me: "I am trying to lose weight" Husband: "I don't understand" "just don't eat your favorite cookies that I bought" My favorite is the one for my friend…
  • I am for childhood vaccines because the disease is often more of a risk to life than the vaccine is. I play the numbers game, if the risks are higher from the disease than the prevention, I go with prevention. For example, my daughter and myself don't get flu shots, why we are often exposed to flu in others, but have not…
  • I love Transformers. Reality check though, it is a movie, based on a cartoon that was based on a toy. Beyond things blowing up and and robots there is not much else I need in the movie.
  • My coworkers think meetings are things you can hold just to think on the phone together. No agenda, last minute adds to calendar, no meeting minutes after and 1/2 way through the meeting after saying a few things the line goes completely silent (phone meetings) for like 15 minutes. so I waste time instead of working out :(
  • Ok, I don't know the background of the whole thing. But here is the deal with College. NO matter what if you are 18yo, an adult, the school takes into account what your parents make. Also the parents income or any step parent living in the home is counted for income on the FAFSA form for federal aid. The government says…
  • My friends The sun is shining I am breathing :) Cats are cuddly
  • I only have a limited amount of time and I prefer lifting. I do cardio as well, but usually with class or just home dancing. There are only so many hours in the day and if I did everything I would pass out. FYI, I like circuit training moving from one exercise to the next quickly which does get your heart rate up as well.…
  • A doctor won't get it. Especially if you have a male Doctor. I was a working mom, with a busy schedule and hubby barely helped with housework, I said sometimes I just wanna run away from it. He offered me antidepressants because not wanting to do housework is a sign of depression. I was Like um no just too much stuff to…
  • I hate cardio too, LOVE Zumba. I can't get on a machine, but I can dance my butt off. I have also done ballet, jazz and hip hop class.

  • Don't sweat the small stuff - I know cliche, but reality is the little things don't matter that much. It is the big things we do that count. No one ever died because a dirty dish was left in the sink - Me. There are things more important than a Perfectly Clean House (like playing a game with your kid or exercising) Work is…
  • I am lactose and use Soy or Veg protein when I get a shake at the gym. However, I read that chocolate milk is perfect for recovery. I drink Almond Milk, so I bought Chcolate Almond Milk and do a 1/2 and 1/2 mix with the Original unsweetened Almond Milk. Depending on what you do, this may be more than enough. FYI, my…
  • Here I come to save the day! that means that Mighty Mouse has come to save the day!
  • I love snow, but I really am getting a bit sick of it this year. Of course that is me, I get bored with anything if I get too much of it.
  • In school they said "Girl" push ups, but I call them modified push ups to build your strength to do a full push up. And I would have sent a note to the teacher telling her as much!!!
  • They have been talking about this for like 2 years. I think it is an improvement. FYI, my personal favorite random serving size is on the I Can't Believe Its Butter spray, the serving size when I looked at it was 1/10 of a spray. I was like ?????
  • You mentioned girls as young as 6 or 7. Yes and it is amazing how the outside influences can be. My daughter who is now 19 and struggles to keep weight on because she is naturally thin and has stomach issues, started hearing it really early. Although eating disorders are usually about being thin, here is something people…
  • Even when you laugh at yourself there are days when you just want to peel the stickers. You will always have days like that, the key to those days is to get through them and move to the next which is usually better :)
