  • Do you have Netflix? That's a good way to try lots of different DVD exercises.

  • I've been painting recently and I use the "cleaning" choices. If I was moving furniture then it's "heavy" but trim work is "light." It's all an estimate anyways. :)

  • I'd go with clothes and body measurements. I'm sure there are ways online to figure out your body fat percentage based on height, weight, and measurements. :)

  • *** moderator edited (see my reply above) -SHBoss1673*** I'm usually a size 8/10 in dresses but I had to buy a size 14/16 because of.... my neck! After I was done crying over the size of the dress (why do those stupid, stupid numbers mean so much?!) I had to start laughing at myself for (a) crying in the dressing room of…

  • Espanol era mi especialidad en la uni (y vivi en Mexico por un semestre) pero estoy olvidando casi todo porque me falta la practica. :( Este domingo voy a hablar con la persona que organizar todos los eventos para los hispanicos en mi iglesia y ojala que pueda empezar ser una voluntaria con ellos. Jaja, hablo demasiado…

  • I have a friend who can't stand water or even flavored water so she eats watermelon all summer long and adds iceburg lettuce to her salads in the winter. I'll have to be sure to send her this so she can see all her other options! Thanks for the article!!!

  • I worked for a doctor that would refuse to be the doctor to anyone that didn't follow her orders to loose weight. They had a year and if in a year they didn't make progress then she was done with them. To her it was "lack of patient compliance." She spent SO much time working with patients who were overweight, giving them…

  • Are you still in PT? I'm sure your PT could offer some great suggestions for at home exercises. Have you tried something like yoga? My friend has sciatica in her back and it really helps her. Also, couldn't you lift weights while seated/lying down? Adding muscle will help you to loose weight and you can still work your…
    in Exercise "Catch 22" - I need it but can't do it! Comment by rae125 July 2011
  • Yes and no. Once you are at your goal weight it gets a lot more free in what you can eat, including things like adding complex carbs and whole grain back into your diet. The super restrictive part is definitely supposed to be temporary. And it's really not THAT restrictive if you love proteins. If I take out the tortillas…

  • Cars that move over enough when I'm out. We don't have sidewalks where I live so no matter how far to the left or right (depending on my activity) of the road I am I'm still VERY close to the cars. There's no traffic on the roads so why don't these drivers swerve a little into the other lane and NOT come 4 inches from…

  • Italiana, don't feel silly. I've been on quite a few community boards and have gained some of my best friends from them! When you think about it, what's a friend? A person who's there for you when you need them. Someone who supports you, makes you laugh, gives you love, and kicks you in the butt when you need it.…

  • I'm not a big biker but my first thought goes to the seat since it could be putting pressure on your butt/hips and cutting off blood supply or just pinching nerves. Where did you get your bike? From a bike shop or from a place like Walmart/Target? If it was Walmart/Target, I'd suggest looking up your local bike shop and…

  • I used to be really self conscious about exercising outside or in a gym where there were other people (I once went to the gym at 4am just so I could exercise alone!) but then I thought about what I'm thinking when I see people exercise. I'm not thinking anything negative. I'm envious, in awe of them, and congratulate them…
