^This. Low-fat, high-carb is not good.

^This. Fiancee and I are on Atkins right now, and we are only hungry when we should be... no cravings like before, and no more lethargy. I don't know what you are doing with all that cream/fat, but I would also suggest eating some some good protein. Fat is good on Atkins, but eating creamy fats is NOT what that means. :)…

Thanks! I have been planning on it once I had the money to go to the doc. I don't want this to turn into some long-term injury that will forever affect my life and physical abilities. Well, anymore than it already has. I am sorry to hear about your spurs. that is very unfortunate!

My ankle is up for the bicycle. It just sucks sooo much not being able to be instantly back to where I was. Slow and steady, it is then. :P chevy88grl-- OUCH. You make me want to hug you.

I use my Kindle, in fact! It stays perfectly in place if you have a cover for it. Not so sure how it would do without a cover. :D

I live in Maine, so I can't help you with the Chicago area, buutttt... do you have a gym buddy? If not, grab a friend if you can? That can really help some people stay motivated when in the gym.

Stay on level one until you can do it for the full 30 mins until you bump it up to the next level. I feel weak after like 10 minutes... like I will fall off. I shake, and the sweat! Make sure you…

Close your eyes and just work out. 90's and 80's classic dance, hip-hop, pop, etc seem to be really good for me. But, I like a…
