My ex wants me back.......
That's right, my ex workout partner is trying to sneak back in. Showing up at the gym when I am there, working out beside me, and giving advice. Didn't even realize how much I enjoyed being my own workout buddy until she negatively commented on my goals. She even suggested that we move to a different piece of equipment and…

Anybody not getting to see their siblings for the holidays.
My family is big, 4 boys and 3 girls, and we are spread out over the country. Video chatting and conferencing is not cutting it anymore and our kids are growing up without playing with their cousins other than online games. Seriously I have memories of my cousins and I playing outside from sun up until bedtime. I know it's…

1000 Calories an hour????
Just finished doing my exercise DVD Hip Hop Abs (I know corny), and I left the video playing and the promo came on for one of their other programs that said one could burn up to a 1000 calories an hour. Now I know the keywords are "up to" but has anyone ever burned 1000 calories an hour measured by a heart rate monitor…

This could happen to anyone. So plan ahead.
It's 11:58PM, and you're just about to doze off. It's been a long day and you've just realized that you've only eaten 1199 calories. How do you spend your last two minutes before starvation mode kills you?

Real ghost sightings/experiences
I love/hate watching he paranormal shows on television. I love them because I know it's real and I hate them because I know it's real. Here's my story.

SuperNatural Sean and Dean are hiring,
What job skill do you have that would make you their ideal partner? How long would it be before you were fired? My job skill would be multitasking. I can run a mile in 16 minutes if I have to scream and run at the same time (from working in the prison) . I think I would get fired after a few weeks because I would forget to…

Warming up with Weights
Before I do any cardio I lift weights or use resistance bands and sometimes I may complete my entire strength routine. I found that this allows me to get through my cardio easier. If I do cardio first, I feel so sluggish and can barely finish it. Just wondering because most of the exercise videos I have done start out with…

Excersise equipment/videos you NEVER let anyone borrow?
People have asked to borrow some of my BB videos, and even though I can't complete some of the videos I still say no. Oh and my resistance bands, they're cheap..get your own, even though I have enough to escape from a tower dungeon. I learned my lesson with Taebo videos (Billy Blanks was the man)...Lent them out and never…

When is it time to lock up a drug user??
I am pro-drug treatment (rather than jail), however recently I had to lock someone up because they became a danger to themselves and others.

Secret weightloss mission?
Anyone trying to lose weight in secret? Such as not telling co-workers or family and maybe waiting for them to notice the changes on their own? Do you think doing it secretly is easier or harder than making others aware of what you are trying to accomplish. For me, my family knows,but my co-workers do not. I have no idea…
