Pure. Awesomesauce. Be patient with your body so that it will be patient with you.

Did you ever join? I also go to the one on Hammerly.

Please tell me you havent responded to this because he wisked you away to the tropics and you havent been out of the bed since the 14th.

Woot!!

Bump. This is a great story. Thanks for posting.

This always happens to me but it's about 2 days before and a day into TOM. Here is my theory - If I was hit by a car and bleeding to death on the street, you would pretty much give me whatever I want, right? Hence, if I am bleeding I get whatever I want. Do I control it? Not completly. I will go over my calories a little…

It is unlimited personal training, but it's not one on one (unless no one else shows up). They schedule different things at different times during the week. You just sign up. The trainer is good and you will learn a lot, but I see it more of a "teaching you how to do things class" than a "in your face to make sure you…

That is really great! Congrats.

I go there! I like the cost of it and how friendly/non-intimidating it is. They have machines for strenth training and cardio. They also have an area where you do a Curve's style 30 min session. I usually do that, 15 min on the elipitical and then do some situps/stretches. With that being said, there are some things that I…

When I met my husband online, I weight 272 (I'm 5'6"). I had a pretty, full length photo up, so he knew what I looked like. If you need a confidence boost, read this post: http://thehairpin.com/2010/12/i-like-fat-chicks-questions/ There are people, not just creepy people, who are more than comfortable with plus size gals.

I try to think of it like this: I am going to be in this body a long time, so have some patience with it. I dont have to be perfect all the time. Slipping up wont ruin anyting, it just means that I need to pay attention better. I know you. When your fire gets lit, you are unstoppable. So, lets just try to figure out what…

150 is cheap for cowboy boots, and you can get them re-soled if they wear down. I think the shoe thing got a little out of control. I think the heart of your post was, "everytime I get where I need to be something comes up". I sympathize. Maybe it's best to just build in a $100 cushion in your budget. Money you can't touch…

Hi! I was actually wonering the same thing since I dont have a heart rate monitor yet. I found this post and I think it gives us a good idea until we can know for sure: http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/556950-ddp-yoga?hl=ddp+yoga+burn#posts-9275647 "I sweat like a maniac, and after all is said and done burn around…

I bought a book, "60 hikes within 60 miles of Houston". It is a great resource if you are looking to get out of the house free.

I lied and told my husband there was a guy at the gym hitting on me. He now goes with me EVERY time.

I would be interested in a "not too serious" downtown ride that occassionally stops by the pub. :)

I struggle a lot with my drinking. I know that it's counterproductive to my weight loss, but I still do it. I know it's counterproductive to basically everything when it's not done socially, but I still do it. To me, if you are having a conversation with a love one about it, it is time to really consider what's going on.…

I tried Atkins one and went insane! Truth is, carbs, and bread, are brain foods. Cant stomach whole wheat grainey breads, try nature's own white wheat. I like bread and so I eat it. Everyday. I log the calories and I try to stay pretty balanced.

Just every week. I try not to live by that thing.

Houston here!!
