yes! that drives me nuts! why do they have to stage some really silly scene? its sooooo obvious.

congrats on your second baby, and welcome to the site!

welcome! i think there's a new topic in the motivation section for working moms. you might check that one at and join whatever they're doing... em:flowerforyou:

wow, thanks for all the great advice! tonight will be a night of healing! em:heart:

woo hoo! congrats on your loss, keep it up!

so i was stupid and (probably) hyper extended my lower back during dance class. then i aggravated it by not resting, and after 2 hours of class last night, i'm not doing so good! other than rest and mild stretching, does anyone have suggestions on helping me get rid of the pain? will icing help? a hot bath? i have 2 gigs…

welcome fellow hippy! :flowerforyou: no real tips, just do what the site tells you. if you have any questions, just post them on the boards.

see how easy this website is:laugh: welcome:flowerforyou:

aha! why do you fitness types have to come up cute names for everything???:laugh: i won't be able to do your routine till thursday, but i'm looking forward to it!

i googled juke and didn't come up with anything. please explain:embarassed:

welcome! you will find tons of support and a lot of good advice too. you can do it!

my hubby calls my stretch marks my 'racing stripes' and he says they make me go faster:laugh: i haven't tried anything to get rid of them, i just accept that they'll only get worse with kids...

welcome! i'm lazy too, so i can relate! check out the motivation threads for support and ideas on staying motivated. also check out the fitness threads for new ideas. em:flowerforyou:

thanks for clarifying the sphinx push up! i also don't know what football heroes are, please explain!

i'm posting my first partial week of training for the double crown bellydance competition in 2010. so far so good: Tuesday-class for 2 hours Wednesday-class for 1 hour Thursday-did crazy HIIT routine from hardcore topic Friday-drills for 1 hour Saturday-class for 1 hour, finger cymbal drills for 1 hour, improv for 30…

i'm here, ready for more abuse!

sweet sassy molassy! that was crazy, and i did the easy version. now my legs are super jello-y and i feel like i'm gonna barf. thanks sbs!

Pet a snake - did Spend a week in an empty room - would Ride in a hot-air balloon - would Sky dive - uh, i don't thing soooo Sing in front of a huge audience - if i were super drunk scuba dive - would Sit in the front seat of a roller coaster - did Deliver a baby - would Swim across the Amazon River - ewww, no Change…

i think its great that you're teaching your kids. that sets a great example to them to be active!

welcome and congrats on your loss so far!

i usually get a 6 inch turkey on wheat, no cheese, with avocado, lots of veggies and the honey mustard dressing... mmmm...

no envy necessary... just do it! its a ton of fun and has seriously changed my whole out look on life.

i'm (cough cough) working right now! although i have my own office, so no reason i can't be drilling!

yep, i've done that too:laugh:

i don't know how to help, but the topic title made me think this: deep fried turkey info=delicious sorry:laugh: is it really any different than cooking a turkey in the oven? i don't think the turkey abosrbs much oil in the process of cooking...

if you're feeling nuts, you could try this: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/42048-who-s-hardcore-join-if-you-dare-i-ll-bet-ya-i-can-make i'm trying it tonight. most of this stuff requires no equipment, and i plan to do it in the garage.

hooray for you! that's some serious will power! i know cuz i've circled the parking lot at mcdonald's debating whether or not i need those fries:laugh:

ok mfp-ers, i need your help! i've decided to enter the double crown bellydance competition in 2010. that gives me over a year to prep and get my belly in better shape. eeeek! here's my training plan: on the week days i don't have dance class already, i MUST do at least one hour of drills/cardio/weight training/anything…

welcome and ask away!

you could try building a ca roll (search for rice, avocado, etc) and see what that number is for comparison...
