yet cannot do one thing:

Yankee Candle Professional Sniffer

I would ask my future husband for advice. Because he will notice how his bride looks, not how much skinnier or fatter the bridesmaids are! :smile:

My favorites are from the 80s and earlier: Boston- anything they've ever done The Cars- just about anything except for Drive, it's a slow dance song Survivor- you fill in the blank Van Halen- Jump, Dance The Night Away. It's all good stuff but too much listening at once is like wolfing down a large piece of fudge- too much…

Not to barrage you with advice, but giving it up now - when you've been working for so long - sounds a bit sudden. You can totally give up, but I'm afraid that won't do wonders for your self esteem or waistline, even if you think neither can be improved. This is a community of encouragement. So I'll mention the truckloads…

I know how you feel. I've been at this for a year now, and the fluctuations really throw you for a loop. You always wonder, what just happened? You know what your weaknesses are, now beat 'em off and work towards that mental picture of your ideal image. It's all worth it! :flowerforyou:

I mix in some honey, jam, cut-up cherries, or Kashi Crunch cereal in there.

Thank you for telling me this!! I had no clue either cause I'm really new to this also.

I suggest searching the store at bodybuilding.com for a wide variety of vegan supplements. You name it, they most likely have it. Hope this helps! :smile:

Walk Like An Egyptian - The Bangles. I dare you all to come up with my theme song! ( insert evil laugh )

I don't mean to bombard you with information, but may I recommend you check out Youtube's zumba classes for beginners? I do these a lot and they're fun and I love them!! In the videos, older women are keeping up with the instructor, so it shouldn't be strenuous in a bad way.

Jump by Van Halen, for obvious reasons. :wink:

Congrats on your new goals! Remember: If you want to see any changes, practice, be patient, and you'll begin to notice newfound strength! I'm very impressed by your commitment at your age because most older women I know would complain all day about their back and give up entirely instead of exercising lightly and at their…

My eyes bugged out when I read about your dad. What an awful thing to hear. I think you look pretty and if your dad won't back you up, I will! :flowerforyou: I noticed I needed to get stronger when I started panting after climbing an ordinary flight of stairs.

Collard greens with dressing. What is the biggest problem the USA has to deal with (in your opinion)?

Whoops, that's not a fun fact. Here's one: The woman who designed the Nike Swoosh in the 70's named her own price for the job. Too bad: She only thought it was worth $35.

This guy I know was stupid enough to try skateboarding while walking his dog. He's pretty thin, so when the dog took off, it dragged him on the ground for almost a block. Needless to say, he had an enormous scab on his elbow.

I want to hurl up beefy chunks and buy Miley Cyrus a decent wardrobe. :tongue:

"Most parents let their kids eat trash." I am proud to say that my mom has been breaking this stereotype since I was in pre-kindergarten. :smile: One of my earliest memories is of sitting down to eat lunch in those early days, opening my lunchbox, and discovering a container of sliced bell peppers. Me, thinking; "What IS…
