I know it is very difficult to do, but you are better then even one of those donuts! Get gum... chew on gum and by all means…

I am sorry you are having an issue with a plateau. I am not able to help you out there as I am on one myself. Usually a plateau is due to you body becoming comfortable with what you are doing and you need to shake things up a bit. The exercise part would be a GREAT way to change things up. There are LOTS of things you can…

I guess one question you need to ask yourself is... will you ACTUALLY USE the treadmill if you get it? So many people get it, use it for a bit then it becomes a collect all. I personally have a treadmill, elliptical machine and a punching bag. I USE BOTH the treadmill and the elliptical, son uses the punching bag. Now, I…

Uh no it is NOT a "racial" slur... at least not in my book. Just a slang word... but if she feels that strong about it maybe she just needs to let the sender know it may not be very good etiquette to include it on future memos. That is what I would do anyways... Have a Happy Valentine's day!!!

I haven't done this but saw someone else do this... someone was talking loudly on phone next to us... so someone else got on their phone and pretended to talk, louder and said something about a rude person next to them talking loudly on their cell phone and that is why they were talking so loud... it worked because the…

The show was a good slow pace episode, for the most part. I like that we will be getting back stories on the characters! As for those that are bad mouthing Carl... well he IS A TEENAGER! And anyone that has a teenager or been through the teenage years KNOWS THIS IS EXACTLY how they would act! Hell they wrote him perfectly…

Consist of the following: 6 Ice Cubes 2 cups Spinach - Raw (this is why it is green but you DO NOT TASTE the spinach) 1 Banana Small (6"-7") 1 scoop Pure Protein - Whey Protein - Vanilla Cream 1/2 cup Silk Pure Almond - Unsweetned Vanilla Milk 1/2 cup water Mix all…

I think they can more expensive but I try not to think of that because I want to be healthier inside as well. However there have been times that I have NOT gotten those strawberries because they were going out of season and they were asking TOO much for them :) so I opted for something else. Apples or grapefruits. But I do…

I took most to The Goodwill and checked to see if my mom wanted any of the ones she could fit into. But this is a great idea... Clothes are NOT cheep and I got with someone on there that had some of her "fat" clothes that were my size and she mailed them to me. It really helped me out and was very grateful for it... so…

Hot dogs and peanut butter!! Not very healthy but very yummy!
-
Yikes that is not good... There are some out there that like to be "haters" of all things and maby they are the ones that are doing this rudeness to your "friend". But for ever 1 "jacka$$" there are several of us that do offer support, motivation and want it in return! If this is what your friend is wanting then by all…

I actually have both a HRM and a Fitbit Zip. I only use my Fitbit though... Rarely do I put my HRM on anymore. I am using the TDEE calculation to for my calories and don't mess with too much of the individual exercise results. Mine are based on daily amount of calories burned. I got my Fitbit for walking/steps and overall…

Mine used to do that too... and yes mine was from where I would wash my hands and my ring would trap some water and then that moisture stayed there and caused irritation. Now after I wash my hands I take my ring off and really dry it out and dry my hands before I put it back on. When I put lotion on I leave my rings off…

I have been on my plateau for over a year! So I wish there was some magic thing I could say to you and me for that matter to get you off of yours and me off of mine. However there is not. I have been doing different things but doing them for about 6-8 weeks to give it time to work and if nothing then I move on to something…

Doing something else besides this I can tell you that... but exactly what...well not sure since it's a slow day here at work and I am all caught up and have 1/2 the day to go yet!! UGH gonna be a long day!

If you don't have to have an "on-the-go" breakfast then the sky is the limit. There are so many things you can fix, like... eggs on english muffin, toast with peanut butter and banana, yogurt with fruit, oatmeal, earlier prepared protein bars, bacon.... I personally eat greek yogurt with oatmeal every weekday morning.…
-
I try to break my meals up with some carbs and some protein... not all of one or the other. The combo helps me stay full longer and keeps the cravings at bay. I also have a couple of bags of sugar free candy in my desk drawer along with a big container of gum! I keep gum every where! If I feel a sweet craving coming on I…

I take 1 Ibuprofen w/ sleep aide every night! I don't feel I HAVE to take them so I feel they are not habit forming, however if I don't I will toss and turn and not get a good nights sleep due to back issues. That is why I use the one that has some "pain releif" with it.

Scientific or not if it FEELS right then it's right! I certainly didn't date 12 guys before I got married... It was only 4-5... hell it's been so long I forget. See my 19th year of marriage is approaching very soon... 19 years and didn't date 12 guys before! Oh and then there is my sister who only dated 1 guy... 1!!! She…

Very touchy subject as I have a niece that falls into this catagory. But do I blame my sister for her being that way? Not completely NO I DO NOT!! Here is why... it has to do with our "genes" and body type. As a child I was on the heavy side but all though my teenage years I was on a diet!! My mom's body type is the same…

Dang... we need to move to Canada!

When I have worked out I tried barefoot but found I was slipping too much on the carpet so I started wearing sneakers. I also wear them when I do my weight training but mainly because I want my feet to have "SOME" kind of barrier if I were to drop a weight on them...lol~ Happy Workout!
-
I have agree with this one too... My sister suffers from depression... it is NOT something that they can just "suck it up". BUT I do agree with everything else, because the same sister has given me I do believe ALL THOSE excuses before as to why she can not or will not lose weight.

Not to be a "Debbie Downer" but wanted to make everyone aware that this estimate may not be very accurate. I wear a HRM when I am at my Zumba class and I am sweating about the 3rd song - we do 2 warm up songs. I feel sometimes I am working my butt off and others I feel like am slacking somewhat but in general I can burn…

I know when I hit a stall the first time I was "forced" to take 2 weeks off, due to having shingles during that time. I still ate my calories and watched what I did eat. When I started back up exercises after 2 weeks I dropped weight the first 4 weeks. I lost 5 lbs during that time. BUT then I stalled again and have been…
