Can we post underwear pics here?
Because OHMYGOODNESS, I just put a couple of backside pics in my underwear side-by-side, and I'm kinda stoked here! I have only lost 6 pounds in 5 months, and I have been wondering if maybe I should cut my calories some after all. Even though I try to keep my focus off the scale, and even though I'm feeling pretty good...I…

I know I'll never grow up because...
I cannot walk by those fluffy white dandelions without picking one, blowing all the fluff off, and making a wish. How do you know that you'll never grow up?

I got asked The Question
One of my coworkers that I haven't seen in awhile pulled me aside and asked me with concern "Are you eating?" I explained that yes, I am actually eating quite a bit! And my weight is at the upper end of the healthy range. I'm just lifting weights, so I LOOK smaller. "But your face is so thin!" she exclaimed. At my age, I…

Thanks, y'all!
For keeping me entertained today. Hubby has been taking over the house for me while I take a "sick day", and I have been snuggled up in my bed or the recliner and playing on the computer all day. God bless him. Man, I should be sick more often. :bigsmile: OK, not really.

Check out my henna art
Yesterday I hosted a baby shower for a friend, and my artistic daughter provided us with henna tattoos. The mother-to-be got a big butterfly on her belly, and everyone got the usual flowery-swirly designs. Here's mine: Well, hmmmm, couldn't figure out how to get the picture to show up here. So I just made it my profile pic.

Lost the weight, but don't look any better
I worked hard, and I lost 30 pounds. I did it slowly, by eating right and exercising. I feel like a tiger! Strong, energetic, proud of what I can do, proud of the new muscles I'm seeing. My BMI is in the "healthy" range for the first time in years. But honestly...I think I look worse than I did before. My breasts were no…

Any Experience With GymPact?
http://www.gym-pact.com/ The idea is intriguing to me! I'm just wondering if I signed up and went to the gym 5 days a week, if I would get enough back to offset a membership? (The membership fee for the gym here is reasonable.) Or I wonder if I could start visiting the dojo a couple blocks from my house and count that?…

Looking for a new friend? I could use some more.
When I first signed up, I posted a brief hello, but I didn't know how calorie-counting was going to work out or if I was going to stick around. I've decided I like it here, and I'd like to meet more folks, so here's a bit more about me. I am a happily married homeschooling mama of six (18, 10, 7, 5, 3, and 11mos.) I work…

Why would you even want to do 100 consecutive pushups?
I had a guy ask me that. You know, because I'm a woman...and why on earth would a woman even want to do pushups? Really it's just a personal goal of mine. Being able to drop down and crank out a bunch of pushups at any given time feels empowering! One hundred is just an impressive number to me. But my answer for that guy…
