Not sure I understand, have you been diagnosed with CT and are wondering about what exercises are available, or have a sore wrist and wondering if it might be CT?

Thank you for the helping hands, today is a new day. It will be a good day, I know it :-)

Every day. But I do not sweat t if its up but it helps me see if I am going astray

I had mine removed about 8 yrs ago and it's still an issue for me. As long as I eat foods that are unprocessed and look like they originally looked I am okay but if I stray from the path I am bloated, and need to know where the bathroom is if you catch my drift :-( I unfortunately didn't realize that eating more 'natural'…

I am in a similar position, I have a family of four that I feed for approx $60-80 per week. My son who is four is the picky one. Breakfast here is 70% cold cereal (with or without milk, I let them decide), 25% eggs and toast (fried, boiled or scrambled) and 5% waffles/pancakes (depending on if I want to wash a pan or the…

I am still on the wait list for the primal blueprint :( I think it will be a good read.

I would choose the chocolate!

Honestly I think they are just jealous that I tend to eat better then they do :tongue: 'Haters will hate' right and sometimes people just want to bring you down, there are a few veggies that you can have too many of... Beets... Asparagus... Broccoli... Carrots... But seriously even if you eat just those four items all day…

Me too, I love beef, of course my favorite is steak on the grill... Too bad it is above my pay grade to eat steak at every meal! I eat eggs instead :-(

I have the Starbucks app on my iPhone, it lets me "create" a drink before I order so I know what I am in for, and I can just show the Barista (?) the screen and they write it down on the cup so I don't have to know the lingo

Introvert. I am the quiet one in the group, very hard shell due to past pains and most people think I basically hate them because of it. In truth I am just protecting myself and once they get to know me better we are usually great friends, I can get along with everyone if they just give me some time to warm up.

:frown: aww... you will and you will look smokin' when you do I used to tell myself I was not that fat

"But I was just ___________" My kids use it all the time and I also hear adults doing it too. Its an excuse, plain and simple, you were caught doing something you probably shouldn't be doing. It actually reminds me of what criminals say during events like the genocides... "But I was just killing ____"

lachesissss - eye shadow

:noway: Amateur Night is just wrong... I personally have not been to one

guess I now remember why I gave up on MFP in the first place... thanks

I'm in! All the above, plus I am pissed that I have not done anything to fix it. I am pulling out my Insanity videos and making a new commitment to myself, and logging again

Sometimes I French braid then "tuck" the end up inside and pin with 2 - 3 bobby pins

Thank you, this is the one place I know I can turn to for support.

Sounds like you may be too low in sugars and calories, I usually find if I am going into ketosis I can eat the whole kitchen in one sitting.

Would it be possible to make a healthier version of your pizza? I also love pizza, and I make them at home with toast, pita, tortilla, home made crust... what I have available basically. I top them with veggies, meat and a little bit of any satisfying cheese. I find the low fat cheeses just make the pizza less "real" and…

I am with you on this, my 4 year old is so picky and usually will only eat 1/2 of what I make for him. I hate tossing the leftovers since food is money. I try to make mini portions now and if he still wants more after he has to wait for me to make more or settle for instant food like an apple, banana, glass of milk, cheese…

I have Just Dance 2 and the Bollywood duet dance has my arms crying every time! It's crazy hard.

Unfortunately I am not aloud to work under the terms of my VISA, so there is no chance of income to start using a gym :(

The medication that helped me the most is Lyrica (Canadian Brand name for Pregabalin) it was given to me by a rheumatologist in Edmonton. In just two weeks it had actually relieved the pain and bruising in my calf I had suffered with for 5 months after an stupid accident suffered while on my first vacation in 6 years but…

I find that no matter what there is good days and there are bad days what ever I am doing and I find it hard not to get lost in the bad ones. What ever you try for exercise remember that fibro slows down your muscle recovery rate, that is part of what causes the pain. Have you been given any medications? I have tried…

:-( reading this post is like seeing my thoughts on paper. I too am self destructive, I do not ever stay on the healthy track no matter how much I want to. If I take evn one day off it is all over and I find that I go back to square one. I think I am not just an emotional eater, I am an advice eater. I do not gamble…

I had the exact same issue and purchased a Timex Mid Size Road Trainer, I have been using it daily and love it

I am on Day 6 and am not using their guide, but I am making sure I get my 1200 calories a day and trying to make it balanced, I will start grabbing a "recovery shake" after since my muscles are hurting.

Atkins is a great starting point for dieting if you need a kick start, but like others stated, it is a lifestyle change that will be the long term way to go. If you have trouble with simple carbs then yes this will help you start loosing weight, but you will gain back your weight if you eat anything you want. I personally…
