Seriously someone out there must know the answer...
I have a lot of tattoo work being alternated between two legs. Today I straight up had my blood sugar bottom out after two hours in the chair. My bestfriend was an EMT in the military and got me squared away quickly. My question is does getting tattooed burn calories? I mean how else could it effect my blood sugar? I ate…

From Arizona with love!
Hey All, I used to be pretty active on this site. Went through some big life changes and landed in Phoenix, AZ. My partner and I of 6 years split up. We sold our house and went our separate ways. Although a break up is never easy, I feel very blessed in this journey. Along the way I have made new friends, started a brand…

Ideas for healthy lunches to go
Hey All-I haven't been on here in months! My new housemate works a very active outdoor job and needs ideas for healthy lunches that do not need to be microwaved. She works on average 10-12 hour shifts. Snacks and a main meal need to be in her lunch. Any ideas? Sandwiches get old.

It's me, Frost....
Hey All! I starterd a new job and have been away from the board. I thought I would leave a quick "hi!" here. I need to get my focus back so I don't undo all I have accomplished. I am one size away from my goal and don't want to mess that up! The new job is a sit all day sort of gig so I need a kick in the pants to get on…

I bit the the bullet and joined Facebook....
Anyone from here on there? Seems like half the world has joined. My bestfriend from High School found me and urged me to join. She found a bunch of our old friends on there. I can't believe how much everyone has changed!

AT&T Rocks!!! So excited!
I have had a run of bad cell phone company experiences. I admit that I went into my relationship with AT&T with a "they will probably be crap too" attitiude. I got a refurbed Blackberry Curve for free with a 2 year contract only to find out that the internet package was really expensive and well my phone wouldn't hold a…

Harry Potter fans in Oregon?
"The Half Blood Prince" opens in July. Was thinking it could be fun if there are any Oregonians on the board that are fans to plan a group movie outing. We could also, once all meeting in one place, discuss fitness type outings. I used to organize events for a DC chat board and we had a blast like once a month. Would be…

So excited!!!
I'm on my way to pick up four garbage bags full of clothes in sizes 4 through 8 from a fellow Freecycler. That should keep me in clothes while I work toward my target weight! My old clothes are so big. Anything exciting happening today in your neck of the woods?

Attention: owners of dogs with flatulance
Benny, my Boston, just gets stinkier with age. Lately he just always smells like cabbage. After a couple nights of all out smell assault my partner suggested Beano. I looked it up and it was said to be safe for dogs on, I think it was, Woofster. We thought the liquid would be the easiest so off to Wally World we went.…

OT: What do you guys think?
I've been trying to come up with a home business that can go with me wherever we may move. I have been thinking of teaching folks to use ebay. People ask me about it a lot since I'm an ebay seller. It's something I can walk them through over the phone so my customers could be in any state. It isn't very time consuming so…

Easter ecards
Every holiday my family sends me cute ecards. I was feeling pretty lame and went in search of funny free ecards. I found Rattlebox! Ok so the site is not for the easily offended but they do have family friendly cards along with more mature themes. I personally like the Easter Monkey card. :laugh:

Favorite funny typos
I was reading posts on Freecycle. Somone had: Offer: empty wine bottles-Good for home wire bottling.:happy: My all time favorite typo was a sign at Goodwill. There were some metal rollaway beds with a sign that read: Mental Beds. :laugh: Have any to share?

Do you know your recommended BMI and weight?
According to my WiiFit I should be just under 117 pounds. I think I would look skeletal at that weight! I just upped my goal to 129 instead of 125 to see how I look after 7 more pounds. That puts in a normal BMI range. Have you checked your recommended BMI and weight? What do you think about the suggested numbers?

Nike sport bag is the bomb!
Recently my partner and I decided we were going to join a local gym that caters to people with hectic schedules (open 24/7). We both needed a decent gym bag we could keep stocked and in the car. We looked at so many bags but they were all lacking interior pockets, in some bizarre size range or didn't have a shoe holder…

OT: Anyone know how to report phishing emails?

Complacent
My motivation seemed to have left right after my birthday which was in February. I'm ok with my current weight but really want to lose at least six more pounds. I stopped working out regularly and now working out is more of a challenge when I try to get started back up. Poop! I sabotaged myself.

Suggestion for the Petite Women out there!
I have been beyond frustrated with trying to get cute jeans that aren't 4 inches too long. Even petites drag the ground unless I wear a heel. I have a 30 inch inseam so I'm not super pettite. Yesterday I spotted a rack of super cute jeans and started browsing. I realized I was looking at girl's jeans and the 16's looked…

sick-Can dieting weaken the immune system?
I am so sick. It started last week and has just creeped on me slowly. I have no energy or motivation today. Just want to lie on the couch. My fur babies can tell. They have all tried to curl around me and sleep on the couch. Animals seem to be so much more intuitive than people. :laugh: Can dieting weaken the immune system?

Daily Carbs
My carbs now say I should have 177? Seems high....thought it was much lower when I was doing 1200 calories a day. I switched to half pound weight loss a week for 1290 calories and my carbs sky rocketed. Is this correct?
