My suggestion is to ask your doctor for physical therapy. It sounds like you need some very specific strengthening exercises to avoid regularly repeating this - and injuring it worse each time.

There is just nothing like government.

I lost one pound.....at 135. I was SO excited last night, after eating three meals and drinking tons of water, I got on the scale fully clothed - multiple layers because I'm freezing half to death all the time - with shoes on, and was STILL under 140! Congratulations on your loss, Stormie! Prairie, holding steady is good.…

Here we go into Thanksgiving weeks as a bunch of beautiful success stories! See y'all in the morning!

(((hugs)))) I am so sorry. You are doing what he needs - being there, listening, being supportive, helping wherever you can. Just realize this will seem to go on and on, at times. There is a lot of extra grieving to go through, with the missed years due to estrangement. It is very complicated, but you will get through it…

Ezekiel breads in the freezer section!

You must be talking about fresh bakery bread? You can ask for nutritional information. I mostly make my bread, but other than at the bakery, I haven't seen any without a label. And I have never *bought* bakery bread, since it isn't going to be any fresher than homemade!

Thanks!

Bread is easy to make, and I make it with little to no fat and very little salt, plus there *are* ready made breads that are much better qualitiy. low (or no) fat, low sodium - and those all come with nutrition information on the wrapper. You don't have to "judge" the calories - just read the label!

I have cut down on my bread, but I still eat some.

If you live in an area where there are modeling opportunities, go for it! You need to already live where there are legitimate opportunities or it will be a huge extra expense or a scam that could cost anything and everything including your life, so be WISE about every contact you make. Never meet anyone alone (go to a…

A kitchen timer wrapped in a first grade math drill sheet.......

That is awesome! I'm so glad you are alive and that I got to "meet" you! You are doing a great job! Getting off all those meds is a HUGE accomplishment, too!

That's great!

I have this book and love it!

It doesn't matter what day of the month it is, my temp is 97.

Get up right now and do whatever exercise first comes to mind. Work it at least 5 minutes. Feel like you can go longer? Drink a big glass of water and tell yourself, "I'm back on track. Cheating is over and I CAN DO THIS!" You can do this.

Add calcium and potassium to your diet. A calcium deficiency will also cause cramping. Do you drink enough water? Dehydration will also cause cramping.

Go to a chiropractor and ask to have your hips checked. If one is out of alignment, it will affect everything else in your body. It could be coming from just about any joint that is misaligned, but my first guess is hip.

Let me see how many calories I have left. (I spend calories like they are money!!)

My temp is always right at 97. If it is 98.6, I'm SICK. It's been that way for about 30 years. I consume little to no soy, as I mostly cook from scratch due to other family members' food allergies. Hypothyroidism runs in my family, but I have not sought any diagnosis or treatment. I'm on the fence about how much damage soy…

136...no change from last week. I need a scale that reads tenths of a pound just so I can see a change, lol.

I know a few people who have tried it, with good results. I think it depends on the purpose of doing a cleanse. Our bodies are made to be self-cleaning, but we were not made for the junk we eat and breathe now, and some are not able to function as well as others without some assistance. Some have been flooded with far more…

You have lost fat, and not 20 pounds of water. Measuring is kind of tricky - getting the measurements from the exact same spot each time baffles me! I finally had to write down how many inches from my knee I had measured to get my thigh size. How are your clothes fitting? Depending on how much you have to lose, they should…

I googled electric teapot. Sometimes the wording used makes a difference. Now that it's getting cold, they will be showing up more in stores. http://www.google.com/search?source=ig&hl=en&rlz=&q=electric+teapot&oq=electric+teapot&aq=0&aqi=g7g-v2g-m1&aql=&gs_sm=c&gs_upl=366l3338l0l5224l15l10l0l1l1l0l264l1559l1.5.3l9l0

The surgeon told me six weeks, but then at the 3 week check up signed my release to go back to work - as a CNA in a nursing home, lifting total-care, combative patients. He didn't even ask what kind of work I was going back to, and I needed the money so I went to work. Dumb doctor. Work did damage... The gym is easier on a…

way to go!!!!!!!!!

It's a whole different mindset. At some point you may need to tell them you appreciate their views, but they are incorrect in their assessment of what is a healthy weight for you. Show them the charts, if you truly believe they have your best interest at heart, and then ask them to please stop the comments and criticisms.…

This week's measurements: MEASUREMENTS: Neck: 11.5 Chest (men, & women-beneath breasts): 31 Bust (women across breasts): 37 Waist: 29 Hips: 33 Upper arm: 11 Forearm: 9 Thighs: 21 Calves: 12

Me too. I've had 4 cups since midnight!!! Not looking good for sound sleep tonight lol.
