  • My college roommate was a toy poodle. Loved that dog. Now I have a cockapoo, he is the best buddy. I am his human. He sleeps beside me at night. I've got a 5month old lab. She is a handful but I know Peaches will be a fulfilling pet as she matures. Cats are ok if they stay outside. I've got 3 grown cats and three kittens…
  • I always thought I was a geek. My husband calls me one :) I'm not a gamer, unless you count farmville rarely. I like some sci-fi but end up being bugged by all the parts that are wrong . I am an enthusiast of biology, geology and chemistry. I am not antisocial or absorbed by a hobby. I do spend too much time reading…
  • Life is a Highway-Rascal Flatts
  • I want to travel. I've been stuck in one state for most of my life, really all my adult life. I want to see things like the Grand Canyon and go caving in Belize and eat my way across Italy. Pretty sure I won't count my calories for that last one! LOL
  • I haven't had very much luck with pedometers, possibly due to fused back making me walk with less movement in the hip area. Has anyone who has this issue had better luck with the fitbit? I agree that HRMs aren't convienent to use much of the time.
  • I was mostly off the wagon for a month or so, gained about 5, got back on the wagon & lost most of it in 2 weeks. Had a donut today, or too much pizza, either way went over some, but its not the end of the world. Hang in there!!!! :flowerforyou:
  • I have plantar fasciitis in both feet. I wear supportive shoes so my feet don't hurt. I stick with Birkenstock & Earth and have no foot pain. I found a Birkenstock insole that I can put in/out of shoes. i keep it in my nike running shoes & I can speed walk & zumba w/o pain. My knees keep me from running :( Its worth a try.…
  • Well, I lost 3 pounds and still sitting here. Haven't worked out much week and at least haven't gained. I am more active during the day, lapping the halls to make copies instead of just standing there. No one has asked what I'm doing, but since there are cameras in the halls, someone will ask eventually. LOL!! Guess I'll…
  • 183 not a good week, back to school and not nearly enough exercise :( Hoping this next week gets better!
  • My week has been busy with school starting and eating at related functions for a few days, but I'm back to eating what I pack each day. It should improve again. I did see a dip in weight finally that slid back up from poor eating a couple days, I hope to report a drop again soon. My exercise is really falling behind, I've…
  • More water will help to flush sodium out if its an issue, but you might need more potassium also. From Livestrong.comFoods High in Potassium According to Harvard Health Publications, you can reduce the sodium in your body by increasing your potassium intake. If you're not getting enough potassium, your body will try to…
  • In all reality, if you lined up 10 women of varying height and build, they probably couldn't guess within 5 pounds of half of them. We all carry our weight so differently. But it goes to show why women lie about the number....we are judged by it. Hopefully they grow up.
  • I do upbeat/angry country & hard rock--here's some of mine Miranda Lambert -Gunpowder & Lead, Kerosene, Maintain the Pain, Somewhere Trouble Don't Go Motley Crue greatest hits (kickstart my heart, girls-girls-girls, smoking in the boys room, wild side, dr feelgood Disturbed-Land of Confusion Theory of Dead Man -Any Other…
  • I want a flowbee!!! I groom my cockapoo & it would be much less messy. They just need to market it for dogs!
  • I had the same weight on mine from age 16 until I was 35. I only weighed 125 when I got it, just never changed it after that. I was only asked if I wanted to update it once between then and I just had a baby so NO, I wasn't going to then!! I told the truth about the weight listed on it at the time but weigh 40 lb more now.…
  • SW 184.5 week 1: 181.8 GW 160 My scale finally moved!!! I had been stuck for 8 weeks and the last few days it has dropped a little each day :) So happy! And it seems the trick was eating MORE calories!!! I changed my goals on here to lost 1 lb a week and gained over 400 cal a day, been eating most of it and started…
  • strong arms & great camera :) I've got the same one--hobby photographer here also.
  • Five years ago i was about 10 pounds heavier than I am right now which is sad. I was battling debilitating back pain from two collapsed discs, but didn't know the cause for a few more months. I missed the first three weeks of the school year after just tripping up the stairs. Since then I had surgery to correct it with two…
  • Well, for anyone who does the Snoopy dance..... love him! I am a pizza junkie. I make my own at home. Pretty tasty, not expensive and fast. Soft taco shell (I use the cheap ones, you can go whole grain for 4x the $) spaghetti sauce Italian shredded cheese I usually warm the topping in a skillet with some Pam to bring out…
  • When I started working out a lot more this summer my daughter was upset because she wanted Mommy to stay "squishy" not hard like Daddy (he lifts a lot). I'm comfy according to her :) When she was about two I remember rocking her and at one point she sat up and "fluffed" my chest like a pillow, laid her head back on me and…
  • That's why I had no birthday cake last year. My hubby was working out of state and it fell literally between blizzards. Damn winter birthdays!!!! I want to move it to June or July for a change.
  • Happy happy birthday!!!
  • I'm not having luck with 1200 cal or after 2 weeks of yo-yoing. I'm scared to up my calories to the recommended 1380 and yoyo from there. But what to do? I've spent a summer so frustrated not getting anywhere.
  • Its been 8 weeks now. scale only 1 pound less than starting. grrrrrrr! I'm not quitting, I gotta fit into my clothes!!! Soon! School starts next week. I'm going to get tired of wearing the stretchy stuff. I had to wear pants 2 sizes too big today because I found a pair in a box. I REFUSE to buy new stuff!!! I 've gotta…
  • I went to facebook and got even further ticked because I couldn't get to my farm! LOL
