  • Well, I am glad you got your day turned around for yourself! I will keep that in mind the next time I have a crazy day (and I do have plenty of them). I have had days exactly like you described! I am the one that talks myself out of the gym and then really doesn't go! I will have to convince myself! :)

  • I was wondering the exact same thing! I always feel bad if I don't log some form of exercise for the day...but I have a staircase where I work and I must go up and down that thing at least 10 times a day! I do work at a desk, but trust me, I give that staircase a workout some days! Thanks for asking this, now I know it…

  • As a simple answer--NO. No one has the right to tell you what to do with your body. Dr.s will tell you to lose weight to help with health issues and what not and I get that, but if you do not listen and follow directions, you have no one to blame but yourself. Not everyone is going to conform to societal standards and they…

  • I used the "Eat This, Not That" books to help me find foods to eat when I had to be out and about, its really helpful and eye opening. I also tend to look up the nutrition info from the chain before heading out there. I looked up Chili's the other night before I went there and got the Margarita Chicken. Lots of the shrimp…

  • I am glad to see this...I have been frustrated lately since I have not seen changes on the scale either, but like you, my clothes feel different and I have been told I look like I lost weight by a couple of people. I am glad someone had reminded me that just because the scale didn't move doesn't mean progress isn't…

  • I think everyone feels like this from time to time, just some are more willing to accept and admit it...Sometimes when I feel like I need to change something, I do, like cut my hair, or buy a new pair of jeans that make me look thinner or whatever...I guess the big thing is to look in the mirror, find the things you do…

  • Oh my friend, I too work for a non-profit, and I do like to think that I think of others a great deal, but trust me, I always find time to make time for ME, and make it work. I have to, otherwise I would go crazy! My journey here thus far has been pretty short, and already very frustrating...I hope you find what you are…

  • I like hummus very much. It is made up of chick peas and other such things...I enjoy a sundried tomato and also red pepper hummus. There is a brand called Josephs (I think) that is good. It is good on sandwhiches and wraps, I also eat it with pita chips and crackers or with veggies is good too. Try it, you just might like…
