Bicycle for petite women
Does anyone have any recomendations? I used to love to bike but I need a small frame bike. Also I hate the tiny wheeled ones, I was like a hamster on a wheel trying to keep up with my husband yesterday. I was miserable and more than my pride is bruised, if you know what I mean! I also don't have a fortune to spend, either.

Why izzit?
When people don't hear exactly what they want to hear, they get mad? Listen up folks! When you post something in a public place, people are going to have opinions and they aren't all going to agee with you.

8 inches gone!
When I first started I read on MFP to take your measurements, so I did. I've lost 8 inches off of my waist in 2 1/2 months. Even though my scale is being stubborn and only budging 1 lb per week rather than 2, this was nice encouragment. If you are just starting, take your measurement! You'll be glad you did. Lynnie

RE-DO!
So. I'm stuck. At this weight. The first 20 came off so effortlessly. Silly, girl, I should have known I'd hit the wall. This is the point where I usually say, "Meh, I tried." and dive into a cheeseburger. Oh no not this time! I am telling the world, I am RECOMMITTING! I will not quit! I will not give in! RE-commit!…

A little personal, a little icky....#2
Okay, I have no one else to ask about this. Um, I feel like I am full of shinola. Is 3 times a day too much to do number 2? How much is too much? I've cut out refine sugars, red meat, white bread. I'm eating all the right things and drinking plenty of water... it is just the way things are going to be? Am I okay? Lynnie

Virgin Coconut Oil
Does anyone use this? Any thoughts? I know there is a debate because it is a saturated fat, but it is supposed to have many healthful benefits. I'd like to hear other peoples opinions. Lynnie

Everything I've cooked today has looked yucka!
I've made two dishes to take to other places for the evening. Both of them have just been buttery and gross looking to me. I haven't even licked my fingers. It's odd because these are normally two of my favorite dishes. Um.. go me!

Sabotaged
*sigh* Does anyone else ever feel like their significant other purposefully tries to sabotage you? I had a follow up check up with the doctor today. In one month I have dropped 10 lbs by healthy choices and some exercise. (Yay me!) Sure, he was happy for me, but... Tonight I told him I had to buy some chocolate milk for my…

Before or After: When to log your food.
My husband has been laughing at me for counting my chickens before they are hatched (or more appropriately, before I can eat them). Every meal, before I begin to eat, I sit down and log in what I am going to eat. I find it helps me make choices about what to eat and how much of it I can have. So, I am curious what other…
