6 months
Here it is: 6 months later and 60 lbs down. I have a lot of work left to do. I have another 70 or so lbs to lose. But I am feeling awesome and more confident. It has been a lot of hard work and yet, it seems like it has been easy too. So many times have I wanted to do this and given up before even beginning. And now, here…

Quick easy meals
I need some food/recipe help. Next Monday the kids start swim lessons. I usually get off work at 330/4 and their lesson starts at 4:40. So we will be rushing to pick them up, get to the community center, get changed, and get out on deck. Swim classes end at 5:15. I figure I will give them a quick toss in the shower to…

MFP calculations
I am confused about my MFP calories. I am 5'1" tall. When I started I was 268 and I lead a sednetary life. I work a desk job and was never exercising. I was given 1340 calories to eat with setting up for a 2 lb per week loss. (I know some of you will flame me for this. only 1 lb a week is healthy, blah, blah, blah. But…

Elliptical question
I bought a used elliptical off of Craigslist so it didn't come with a manual. I have tried searching for a manual online and have been unsuccessful. I was wondering if someone here might be able to help me out. It is a Stamina Conversion II Elliptical/Stepper. When I use it I of course don't trust the calories burned…

Holy Moly 1st 5k!!

OT Divorce Vent
Can I rant here a little? This has nothing to do with weightloss or the usual topics posted here. I am just so frustrated. I am through my divorce and yet I still feel like I need an attorney on retainer. Every week I have a legal question and I am so tired of it. I just want everything to be done with so we can move on.…

Painting?
I don't have a HRM. Right now I am really wishing I did. Rolling paint can be hard work!! I tried looking it up in the database but didn't find anything. Any suggestions on how I can track the paining that I do today? I will not be cutting in, I will be rolling and I don't have any fancy roller either. Probably for a few…

I did…
