Take a WEEK off?
My HRM keeps telling me to take a week to recuperate. I just don't know if taking a week off is a good idea. What do y'all think?

Being tall and running
I just found out that if you have lost an inch or more of height you shouldn't run because your back has begun to compress and running makes it worse. At my last physical I found that I am no longer 5'10.5" I am now 5'9.5" which is no surprise, most of the people in my family "settled" about the same age, but several of…

I haven't been shopping for pants since I started loosing weight. Last pair I bought were 24W. I was hoping, that, with what I have lost, I might…

Weighing in-Do you do this?
I weigh everyday on my Wii Fit. I have found out that if I am within a certain amount I can exercise for five minutes and turn a "gain" :frown: into a "loss" :happy: for the day. And of course I find being able to record a loss for the day is so much more encouraging so I use this little trick about twice a week. Does…

What is your NSV, mine is...
I think people have Non Scale Victories everyday, if they look for them. My hubby and I have been on the weight loss trail all summer . I just realized today that we didn't go to Dairy Queen all summer and we used to be their best customers! Maybe that's one reason why between us we have lost 100 pounds.:happy: :happy:

Is that you?
My first real NSV came today. I unexpectedly ran into my brother-in-law in a bookstore this afternoon and he did a double-take, like he wasn't sure it was me. Then he said, "it really shows in your face.":happy: He hadn't seen me for a while but he knew I was loosing weight, from my husband. It was really trilling to me to…

Crabiness Cures?
I find I get really crabby when I get hungry in the evening (and of course that is the worst time to eat so I don't). My poor husband doesn't deserve months of crabby wife until I get to a healthy weight. Anyone have any suggestions?
