Hi Everone! I haven't been officially diagnosed with anything....yet. However, my endocrinologist showed me my "moth eaten" thyroid and took a biopsy of a nodule, which came back negative. So far, my levels are in the normal range, but I fully suspect that Hashimoto's is what I will be diagnosed with (thanks Mom). I go in…

Nightmare on Elm Street....I still cringe at the beginning.....

Meee toooo!!! I do so much better when I track my food!

The Dovekeepers was surprisingly good.

Bumping to see what advice you get...I've had mine since I was a teenager!

I second the Olympia/Lacey/Tumwater area. I've lived here most of my life and it's not too big, not too small. The schools are great and everyone is friendly.

I'm working today and then on Monday. I tried to organize a little potluck for the unfortunates that "get" to be at work on the 24th so that has shaped up nicely. I'm pretty sure that the 12 people who have signed up will be the only 12 in the building...

...but that's how I catch the best fish!!!

For all of the men that are complaining about this movie, I have one word for you...."Showgirls"! It's about time the ladies had a movie like this to enjoy! As for me, a group of my friends and I are having a girls night out on opening day.....and my fiancee is more than happy to let me see it with them rather than drag…

Porn Star Dancin' always refreshes me....don't know what it is about that song, but I do love it!

That....is....amazing.....and not in a good way...

I've been on a plateau for the last 4 months, fluctuating up and down about 5 lbs. I'm meeting with my trainer tomorrow and crying!

Massage can help along with the chiropractic. Sometimes the muscles pinch down on the nerve too.

I've been taking Atro-Phex which has the 7-Keto in it. I use it when I'm plateauing to help me start losing again.

I thought "Now THIS should be interresting!" It still made my afternoon! :)

I use EAS Whey Protein. It's not chalky tasting but does require a good "shake" if you are mixing it with just water. I typically stir it up with a fork so that it mixes better if I'm in a hurry. It has about 20 grams of protein and 4 grams of carb/fats.

Toast with peanut butter and sugar on top...my aunt introduced me to that one :)

So jealous! I hope you get tons out of it! :)

This looked like alot of fun. I'll have to keep it on my radar for next year.

I'll be 39 this year... and no kids! :)

LOL...my fiancee does the same thing! I warned him that was the first area to go.... :)

I tried kale chips yesterday for the first time...not too bad and would work for the salty/crunchy cravings. I also stash rice crackers around too.

Jamie Eason has some good recipies for protein snacks: http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/get-lean-eat-clean-with-jamie-eason-main-page.htm#Turkey

I have my snacks built into my day....breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner, snack. I don't feel deprived, actually sometimes I end up being more full from snacking.

WSU all the way...GO COUGS! Hey, someone has to cheer for them ;)

I have a tendency to look down at everything that I do. My trainer always tells me to look up and keep my neck and head in alignment.

Liz, I had my gall bladder and spleen removed about 3 years ago. I was off of my feet for about 2 weeks, with full recovery lasting about 6. I didn't get cleared for exercising until I had my staples out (I had to be cut, not lucky with the laproscopic surgery). I would take it easy for the first few weeks. When I went…

LOL! I've only seen them at the salons. Now if it would melt the fat off of me...I'd surely get one of THOSE! ;)

What is that??? I've never seen one before....

Nothing is impossible, the word itself says I'm possible! ~Audrey Hepburn I'm not losing weight. I'm getting rid of it. I have no intention of finding it again. You are one tough *****. Now go prove it! And... Sweat is fat crying
