@Beduffbrickie Oh my... the young lad abs and not too bulky muscles are nice but I LOVE your border collie and bird.

[/quote] Seriously, I have MANY allergies to foods, medications and scents. I am chemically sensitive (Environmental Illness) so perfume, strong chemicals/household cleaners, air fresheners, gas fumes, etc., set off severe headaches and my asthma. I am allergic to weeds, trees, grasses & ragweed as far as "general" outdoor…

I feel bad no one has replied. I personally don't have tattoo advice but thought if I replied someone else might too? ANYONE!?!? anyone... ps. on a side note I've always said if I ever get one I will get a japanese yakuza styled tiger (full color) whole back with claw reaching over one shoulder and tail wrapped around side…

Soda was only thing I gave up. Though, I've had it as a treat on a low calorie day. I also have given up all alcohol for the past month or so to lose the last few pounds. Which I recently reached. It will be worked back in with extra cardio mid May. I love my cocktails and wine with dinners. I have luckily been disciplined…

Maintain the loss and after a full month of maintaining I'm gonna celebrate with wine and cocktails (I've cut them out till I lose the last 5lbs). Then maintain with my indulgence back in the mix. WOO HOOO! I've only got 3/4 of a lb left.

I believe in the rule of getting at least 1200 "NET" per day. At a certain point I was eating less then stopped losing for 3months... "THREE FREAKIN MONTHS" Weight stayed stagnant or higher during Time Of Month. When I went through it, I began making sure I was always at a 1200 NET as recommended (or even slightly over)…

I'm not in the UK and this is a us link http://www.amazon.com/Polar-Womens-Heart-Monitor-Watch/dp/B005193QW4/ref=sr_1_8?ie=UTF8&qid=1334012972&sr=8-8 It's the HRM I'm getting. I don't need the one with all the extra bells and whistles. It's the Polar FT7

I have personally done a bunch of research and there isn't a good product that would give me the the best of both worlds. What I have decided to do is to finally use the HRM we have or get Polar HRM of my own and utilize an app on my phone (which I'm never without) to track time, distance, speed and incline. I've been…

W O W! ! ! ! I All I can say is W O W! ! ! WOOO HOOOO! ! ! ! :drinker: :flowerforyou:

*jinx* I had the same thought! :laugh: I've never had one of these moments.:cry:

Right now I'm trying to kick my own *kitten* into gear to lose the last pounds. Seeing what I'm trying to change reminds me why I'm here. I also have face pic in my photos and will probably post full shot when I get to my goals this time around.

I just read this somewhere too. They said that the body still processes diet sodas like a regular sugar. Bad stuff.

I don't mind. Hubby doesn't mind. But all it takes is one off hand creepo comment or no reciprocal support and they are gone. Come to think of it that goes for the same sex too. That is all.

MAC now runs windows faster than most PC's out there today. You no longer are only tied to one OS. Just saying. We run manywindows based apps on our MAC PRO. We get the best of both worlds. I can't say the same for any PC out there today.

Men look for the easy prey. You may intimidate them in some way. And by the way... they look... you just don't see them doing it. Sweetie you are gorgeous.

N O M ! N O M ! ! N O M ! ! ! Time for a BLT! Oh no! I don't have any bacon! :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

So inspirational! You are proof positive that the lifestyle change can be done if you set your mind to it. Nothing stopping us but ourselves. Rock on girl!

Rotary phones, reel to reel, super 8 home movies, transistor radio, manual typewriter, vinyl records, sitting at the record shop to hear the new tunes, running home by dusk, playing ball at the corner with all the neighborhood kids, meeting friends at the playground after walking yourself there at the age of 7, black and…

When I'm on it for very short periods less than 10 days I am okay. But when I had to stay on it for over a month for an RA flare I blew up like a Macy's day parade balloon. And it took me over a year to lose 20lbs. You should be fine. I'm presently on 60mgs today and past two days then go to 40mgs for 3 days and 20mgs for…

Ericka Lutz first novel just released to rave reviews "The Edge of Maybe" http://www.amazon.com/The-Edge-Maybe-Ericka-Lutz/dp/0982708459/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1332540345&sr=1-1 I could not put it down once I started. You just want to know what happens.

Swimming if you can. Realize that every move you make counts. Upper body work while you heal. Try light weights while dancing sitting. Extra movements in the arms. You will strengthen at the same time. Good luck! Feel better soon. Wishing you a speedy recovery.

Try eating a little more beneficial fats adding calories and changing up the exercise. Do something that really gets you sweating and brings up your heart rate for stints at a time. Like sprint for a block or half a block during your walk or on the treadmill. It may give you the nudge you need. But above all else, relax…

Congratulations! Your hard work is paying off. Log everything and never give up because every bit counts. Cheers! :drinker:

Exactly what I was thinking. But I have to admit I did that in my weakest moments and regret it to this day. Be strong, take care of yourself, find happiness in yourself and someone deserving of you will come along. I promise. Take out all your anger at the gym. Cardio will make you feel so much better and focus your mind…

It is always hardest when it is family. Without bearing my own burdens upon you, I assure you I understand. This will pass. Big hugs. :flowerforyou: :cry:

<<<Stoner dog... enough said. Time for happy dance with a big wide smile. Cheer up! People used to be taught that if they don't have something nice to say, say nothing at all. Karma will come back to whomever brought you down.

WOW! You look A M A Z I N G! ! ! ! What a difference, all over your body and in your face. :drinker: :happy: :flowerforyou: YAY for you!
