Here in Mississippi we just grill everything in the freezer. There are always plenty of mouths to feed after a storm. We all support each other in the aftermath. I can remember back into the mid-1980's doing that in my grandma's back yard after Hurricane Elena (?sp), every couple years with tropical storms, and other big…

Wow!!! Thanks!!! I have a lot to think about and figure out now!

I completely agree! After six months of actually trying to lose weight/get healthy I still hate it. I guess what it comes down to is hating your unhealthy habits more that you hate exercise.

Sure you all are close enough!!! Feel free to add me as a buddy for added support. Thanks for the reply :happy:

I don't get why other women are afraid. I love to lift. I don't try to "max out" or anything. I just do 30 - 60 lbs on some machines at my gym 2 - 3 days per week. I don't want to be one of those ladies who loses weight and has no muscle tone and flabby skin folds (yuck!). :wink:

Welcome! Good Luck! Set small reachable goals. :happy:

goes by age, sex, routine activity level....

Everybody is different. Most of the time it is time for new shoes or a need for some inserts. In my case, it was my bad ankle rolling in on me when I walk/jog. I got an ankle brace and problem solved. Now I have found that my new Asics running shoes support me really well. No more shin splints. Be sure you're stretching…

Well hello there! Welcome! Hope you become as addicted to this site as i am. I never lost an ounce until i started using this site. You may add me as a friend if you'd like. Good luck. You can do it!!!!!

yep. me too. don't even bother weighing in around that time. good luck to ya!

I have fibromyalgia and arthritis. I find that doing yoga or serious stretching, weights, and then cardio is best for me. I started losing more weight after doing this. It makes me able to go longer on any cardio exercising. I've been able to stop wearing my ankle brace when working out and I don't cramp up as much. I like…

something to talk to your physician about. lots of questions to be answered by him/her to figure it out..... do you drink enough water? do you follow an anti-migraine diet? do you take migraine prevention medication and have meds to break a headache when it comes on? do you clench your jaw in your sleep (do you want to be…

as far as i know.... low fat high protein diet with plenty of water intake. must do way more strength training (even if that means more push-ups and old school exercises).... pretty much what i was taught at my weight loss clinic

You can only make so many changes. Stick with your healthy diet plan and routine exercise at first. Those are the most important changes. Once that becomes natural to you, then wean off the diet drinks. I drink the energy crystal light (has a little caffeine in it). I have been exercising regularly since around Feb 4th…

your so rite LOL! your / you're & its / it's ...... drives me absolutely crazy on here and other social networking

I bought the won from WalMart. It works fine. It measures in all kinds of units (kg, ounces.....).

Good luck to you and your doggie exercise friend :wink: you may add me as a friend if you'd like.

Just glad I'm not the only one who has this problem. When my feet go numb on the elliptical I cool down a couple minutes .... then i move to a brisk walk on the treadmill. I try to not tie my shoes too tight. I don't know what the problem is!

Welcome! Feel free to add me to your list. The more the merrier. :happy:

Thanks. I was wondering too.

Hi there. Air Force wife here. My husband just got home in December. He was in Iraq for 7 months. So, I feel ya. Feel free to add me as a buddy. Happy losing :wink:

yes, i agree. but you should go ahead and get a scale. it really helps. they don't cost much either. got mine at walmart for $15

Welcome. I love this site too!

I totally agree. I don't have much to lose (about 20 pounds) but have never even lost an ounce until I started using this site. I love it and it really does work.

you can friend request me if ya want :happy: Gessica Estensen

Um... maybe you should moisturize. LOL. IDK! :tongue:

This is only temporary honey. They will grow so fast. Enjoy them while they are little. Do what you can when you can. You'll have plenty time to get tone again once they're a little older. It's not the end of the world. Give yourself more credit. To me, the diet is way harder than the working out part. Pat yourself on the…

find a cupsize in a 32 that will work and have a seamstress take it in on the back strap. that's way cheaper. it's what i used to do.

could just get a wrist strap one. just saying. :happy:

:drinker: Thanks.
