The new cut would look good on you. I have an oval face and have had that cut before and it's cute!

Here's a question - do you all continue to wear your HRM after your workout until your heart rate is back to where it started and count your calories burned at that point (heart rate back to normal), or do you only count exactly what was burned during actual exercise, even if your heart rate is still elevated when you're…

good call. I have not added that one to my workout mix, but I do have tobyMac's "Hey Devil" on there. It's a good one, too!

[/quote] I tried shaving my own back once. Never trying that again. [/quote] yikes!

Good point...won't be a deal-breaker for me, though. Just curious!

Oh my gosh - i'm so glad i posted this question. Way to end my day at work!

LOL. My Brother-in-law is mostly bald but a little fuzzy on the back. For her birthday, he gave my sister a card that on the front showed a lady and a bald guy sitting at a bar. She says, "But your profile said you have dark wavy hair." He says, "I do. It's on my back." So funny!!

Just met the guy...not at that point!

Hey guys! My name is Mandy and I live in Meridian. I have been overweight since I was about 10, when my parents divorced and I found my comfort in food. I've lost and gained over the years, and I believe this past year I was at my highest ever. After my marriage ended in divorce, I decided it was time to take back control…
