^^^^ What was actually written.... What guys hear:

Top three causes for this: 1. Not enough calcium in your diet(make sure you're getting enough, and talking at least 1000U of D a day to absorb it) 2. Not enough potassium in your diet (think fresh fruits, all kinds, green vegetables and chicken) 3. Simple dehydration (not enough water) I have a really hard time getting…

I'm supposed to be studying, but I can't look away either. :noway:

Thanks for the tip!

Don't give up!!! Losing weight is hard. Staying fat is harder. As we get older, our bodies retain fluid to replace the fat YOU ARE BURNING longer (it's called homeostasis). It will let go soon. Also, you are gaining muscle. Advice: Measure inches immediately so you have more than one way to track progress. You should…

and that was probably the most useful post today. =D

Suggestion: the mean green juice is one of the better balanced - uses a lot of kale (has protein content and calcium). Might want to research and try it: http://recipes.sparkpeople.com/recipe-detail.asp?recipe=1759308. I have done 10 days on this one myself for detox.

I have to agree with this. You saw it coming. You are automatically taking a victim stance (Waaah, I got nothing!), which is acting like a 15 year old when you are an adult in your 30's. The sympathy you're here to get won't help you. Take stock of what you DO have going for you (your health? a friend who cares enough to…

Beautiful!

My friends in nursing school said: "BEST. SEX. EVER." Have not confirmed.

It's very interesting that you gained weight on Paxil and not Lexapro. They are both SSRI's and both commonly have weight gain as a side effect. You may have to experiment for a while with your doc on getting just the right dose and medication for you, with the goal being no weight gain and no panic attacks. You are…

Nope. Need more men posting...

Yes - lots more "hits" than other singles sites, but I quit using it. It's a good site for people that want to make sure they have a date every weekend - not so good for people that have limited time to get to know someone and don't want to waste their time with a high percentage of losers.

OK, I just returned from the grocery store with Truvia!

Hey, I'm 54, and there IS a middle ground. I just got done with nursing school - became extremely sedentary for about a year. I WANT to exercise because growing older just looks depressing if I'm not strong and capable as long as I can be. I have arthritis, and if I don't use it, I WILL lose it. To get back in shape, I…

Look in your friend requests =D

Arms have definitely bulked up with muscle - they were mere pipestems before! (jk). That's nice, a girl has a weakness for nice arms.

I lack filters. Add me. :laugh:

I agree! Friend request coming...

What a great post on how to take control of your own life. :flowerforyou:
