Nutribullet!
I ordered one today! Anyone here use one? Any success stories or great recipes? Hoping to increase energy and help with my diabetes. I have such fatigue and over all pain every evening. If I have a busy day, that evening and the next day I will have fever with pain from my head to my toes. Tina

Some personal NSVs!
I was able to shower this morning with out feeling dizzy and half dead when I got done. I am only down 8lbs but I know the walking helps. I was able to stand and put my undies on. Usually when I tried to stand on one leg it would throw me off balance. I was able to stand and tie my shoes. I know my mom said Monday she…

Make a 3.5 pound difference this morning? I know way TOO MUCH sodium. Lots of water today. Needed the comfort and I gave in. Yesterday was not a good food day or a good work day. Under some stress. :-(((((

What my 1/2 pound means to me!

My fears about losing weight
I don't want to look old. That is the number one!!! Second is the loose flabby skin! At 50 will it tone up? I do not have a gym close by. Need strength training ideas for home.

Going out tomorrow night
If I drink it is usually diet 7 up and Crown Royal. Is this a good choice? I think around 96 cal per shot. How does alcohol affect weight loss? Is it just the calories that affect it or is it something chemical? My husband is Fire Chief and it is their Christmas Party.

REAL C25K Training
OK I just did first "REAL" C25K training. 20 minutes walking with 1-20 second jog, 1-15 second jog and a final 5-second jog. My legs are jelly and shaky. My neck hurts, my hips and knee are burning like fire. My teeth even hurt. And probably will not be able to move a week and alas! This is where I usually give up.

Scales
I bought batteries for my digital scales. It has not had batteries for about 6 yrs. I have been weighing on an old scale from a fed store. The old scale is amazingly accurate to my docs scale.

Couch 2 5k
Question 1: I searched this and have found different guidelines or plans for the Couch 2 5k.. Which is the correct one? I don't guess it really matters. The one that starts with 60 second jogging is probably the one I will use. And that will be a challenge for me. Question 2: Any suggestions for a pair of shoes. I wear…

Coffe Creamer
I bought me a big 20 ounce coffee this morning. When I got to work I proceeded to put my Hazelnut Creamer in and WOW 30 calories per tub. I use 8 in a large coffee, an extra 240 calories. I never looked before and during the winter it is an everyday thing. I will look for sugar free this weekend. Tina

Diabetes
Feeling like crap yesterday and today. Had a low of 35 about 3 this morning. I hate waking up shaky, sweaty and the room spinning. I always tend to over eat to compensate a low, I ate a bowl of sugary cereal. I take a lot of insulin. My diabetes is slowly killing me and I need to get this weight off. I am so depressed,…

Hello
My name is Tina Doerr. I am new to this site. Was suggested by a friend. I am so unbelievably fat and out of shape. I will be 50 next month and need a life change. My question is about the amount of calories the site says I am allowed. I would never be able to eat that much. I have often been told that I eat too little. I…
