I have never thought of it that way but you have a very good point!

I found that I had to take them slow. The places and names are so foreign that I was easily mixed up. I did the same thing with the LotR series. Book one was good and set the story up nicely. Book 2 I felt furthered things along but what it really did was set up book three. And book three? Wow! If you start reading the…

In no certain order (and sorry there will probably be more than 5) and leaving out Harry Potter, Hunger Games and Twilight only because they have been mentioned so many times, although they are high up...HP is probably #1 and I have done my job as a mother and passed my HP addiction on to the next generation! -Midnight…

4 on 01/03 Lucky to get that in. I think that's going to be it for the week. Yay for school starting on Monday! W1 - 4 M - 4

Great attitude and wonderful motivation!

You're the best! I love being a "Rock Star"! :flowerforyou:

I just sent a PM as well...thanks bunches!

Oh Goodie Goodie Goodie! Be looking for a PM from me! :bigsmile:

Thanks Jo! You are the best!

What a fun thread! 1) My family has 5 generations. My great grandma will be 101 in 3 weeks! I am thankful my kids who are 8 & 10 are old enough to know and remember her! 2) I was a police officer for 11 years...I'm 5'3", female and am young looking for my age. I was hired when I was 21 so I had lots of entertaining…

I'm reporting this as a high ... but I'm actually at a low right now. I've gained 15+ lbs back since I stopped being activea on mfp and really trying at the end of june 2012. I gave away all my large pants back then and now I'm stuffed in the pants I have. I am full of excuses for not exercising or cooking healthy. I could…

I'd love to join up! I will start out with 50 but won't get much in until the kids go back to school on the 7th. Thanks!

I LOVE paperbackswap! I even swap my kids books and find books at library sales or other cheap locations. It's how I can afford to pay for my habit!

Always looking for ideas...I'm currently on a Lady Gaga kick...

This is a great thread! I passed on a diet soda and banana bread today! And am under my calorie count! Woot!

Where did you find/figure out your lean mass info?

Please update and share your experience after you've tried it out because it looks great and is very tempting......but expensive! I'd like real opinions prior to purchasing it. Thanks and good luck!!

Oh! And Girl With A Pearl Earring by Tracy Chevalier was really good too! (also has a movie) I swap books and find out info on good boods to read at paperbackswap.com

Yeah they are very hard to read at times and I dreampt about them for months after I had finished reading them. But I'm guessing that is what the author wants of us, to continue thinking about the books, to have them stay with us. I'm reading them again now prior to the movie. Very excited!

Agreed! Very good - the movie too.....keep a tissue with you!

I enjoyed the Trilogy that begins with The Innocent by Posie Graeme-Evans. "The year is 1450, a dangerous time in medieval Britain. Civil unrest is at its peak and the legitimacy of the royal family is suspect. Meanwhile, deep in the forests of western England, a baby is born. Powerful forces plot to kill both mother and…

Maybe this will motivate me....I'll jump in too!!
