Thanks Kel~ I figured thats what it was from the context in which it was being used! But, I didn't know what it stood for. I heart wikipedia!

This may be a silly question, and I think I get the idea of what DOMS is, but what does it stand for???

This makes me that much more excited to get going on this! Quitting time (work) can't come fast enough!!

This makes me so excited to get started!! :)

I just finished up the book last night, and am planning on starting Fri or Mon! Add me, I'd love support!! I will be doing a hybrid for the first few weeks. I am part of a group training on Wednesdays that goes for a few more weeks, which is mostly strength. So I will be doing NROL4W on Mondays and Fridays.

I just bought the Garnier BB cream yesterday and tried it out yesterday and today. So far, I like it! I have very light skin, but the light/medium works great for me, it looks much darker in the bottle that it comes out. Yesterday, I wore just the cream and today I wore the cream and a little blush. Super easy, I was using…

BUMP!! I am the same way (also a former swimmer!)!

I'm totally biking in my running shoes!! I don't like the thought of being clipped in either, and faster transition! ;) Of course, I'm a newbie..

I did better than expected last week, but then failed miserably when at the parents for Easter.. but oh well! Monday - Strength, 5- 10 mile bike Tuesday - 1 mile interval + Zumba Wednesday - Fusion Class (strength) + 800 yard swim Thursday - 10 mile bike, 1 mile run Fri - 1500 yard swim Sat - 3 mile run (make-up from last…

Okay, this is my first post for weekly check-ins! I just decided to actually sign up for a Sprint Tri on June 3rd. :) Monday - short bike ride (just get myself out there) Tuesday - 1 mile + interval run, Zumba Wednesday - TRX/Kettlebell Fusion Class, swimming Thursday - outdoor bike ride 10+ miles Fri, Sat, Sun - Travel to…

I binge every once in awhile and its more the mindset of when I'm binging that scares me than actually eating the food. Looking at it from the behavior modification standpoint (I'm a special ed teacher), you first need to figure out what triggers the behavior of binge eating, which is easier said then done. It may help to…

Yes!! I stayed at RIU Negril, LOVED it! So beautiful! If you can go on the sunset booze cruise with snorkeling, do it! The shopping in town is fun too! I wanna go back! :)

Thank you so much for your input and suggestions!

When you do brick training, do you do it in the gym? And do you change after swimming before biking? Or do you really want to get the real feel of switching from swimming to biking (of course after drying off and putting some clothes on! ;)

Thank you! At the moment, not exactly! I wonder about training and whether I should do a Beginner Training schedule or Intermediate.

I'm pretty fair myself, but one of the few redheads I know that can actually tan!! Of course, sunblock is still necessary to get there!!

I'm a redhead and my bf has a red beard!! And this is actually true, because it is a recessive gene..

AGREED! And thanks for my gift!

You know I think you are amazing and a HUGE inspiration to me! I'm so glad that we found each other on here, and this is your first "true" before picture I have seen, and I am speechless!! You look amazing and should (obvi!) be so proud of yourself!!

Sent: I love you tots and tots! Corny.. I know!

When I was a kid, I got made fun of for my nose.. which was apparently larger than life! And let me tell you, it is a bit bigger and I've broken it several times as a kid so it also has small bump.... I had an ex tell me that he loved my nose and it was beautiful (out of the blue..) and I broke down in tears!! I've now…

This just reminded me that I need to look up Olive Garden again.. as we are going tonight.. Although, if I recall, I don't remember seeing much healthy on that menu... :( Good for you on your realization! It sounds like you have a great attitude! :)

You have answered your own questions dear. You feel unwanted and unloved. Leave. Find someone that you are able to talk about these things with. Move on with your life. And I'm not saying relationships don't take hard work, but you need get yourself back on track and be happy about who you are before you can truly be happy…

Bump

I am not a mom, but I am a special education teacher. I have my Master's in Special Education with an emphasis in Autism Spectrum Disorders. I have been teaching for over 7 years, and worked with individuals (both young and old) with Autism, DCD, EBD, etc for several years before I started teaching. Individuals with Autism…

I have Zumba, and I LOVE it! It's not quite as awesome as real-life Zumba, but you can get a great cardio work out in! You can make your work out as short as 15 minutes I think and as long as you want!

I live in Minnesota and my parents travel through out the winter (well, they actually live in WI for the summer.. but close enough). This was the first Christmas season in a LONG time I did not get to see them due to finance (I bought a new home), and it was really tough, but you NEED to rely on your support system that is…

I use an HRM, and I've burned anywhere from low 500's to high 600's depending on my intensity if I did a short warm up before hand. I weigh 160 right now. That's why I love the HRM, if I'm being a wuss, I can try harder to get my heart rate up!

I think this is a great post, and a good food for thought!

I'm 30 in October!! We are planning a trip to Europe or somewhere exotic shortly there after!!
