Only getting one good workout a week :(
Am I over thinking this? For at least the next month, I'm only going to get in one good workout a week. I was doing strong lifts. And seeing some results. My schedule has changed. By the time I get to the gym, I only have about 15 minutes to work out before I need to get ready for work. If I'm only doing one of the…

Back to the weight loss game
Apparently I suck at maintenance. Up 25 lbs. I think it might be something psychological as my sister told me once you turn 30 it's impossible to lose weight. I turned 30 in October and my weight has stayed at 160. I've done this before. But with working out (which I lack the motivation these days) and staying within my…

Need ideas for my kidlet
I have an overweight 8 year old. I need some help with food idea. He was diagnosed with Sensory Integration Disorder which entails very strong textural aversion. So, with that... He only eats DRY CRUNCHY foods. I've tried the deceptively delicious cook books... but he doesn't eat any of the recipes. It also doesn't help…

Losing fat without being half a skeleton?
I know I still have fat to lose. I also have some saggy skin issues. Also... know that you can't spot reduce. The problem: Every time my weight starts to go down, I start to look emaciated. My rib cages pokes out, my ribs stick out (even on my upper chest) My elbows get all weird and veins pop out like crazy on my…

Runnings & Holsters
Looking for suggestions. Preferably other than a belly band but still concealed. Either for a Ruger LCP(w/laser) or P95DC I have a DeSantis holster for the LCP, but it jiggles down (even when I'm just walking) I currently wear UA Jogging pants, so I can't really use anything that requires a belt. Not a fan of fanny packs…

NSV Running and...
Okay, I am one of those women who can barely move the first couple of days of her period. I decided last minute to go ahead and run today after work. It was week 4 of C25K (I am also doing RushFit) and I was able to run ALL the intervals for the WHOLE time. I ran my fastest 1K 6'40" My avg pace was 12'24" I really…

Non-Fishy Fish on the Cheap
I am looking at the wild-caught fish from Walmart, frozen :/ I am super picky and my experience with fish to date is fish sticks and Long John Silvers. What would the best non-fishy tasting fish, and easiest to fix? I am looking at maybe lightly breading, and baking it. So far, the flounder and cod seem okay... I have…

Food/Supplement for PMS/Cramps that *work*
Just wondering if anyone has any recommendations. I have read about Vitex, but also read that it could cause heavier flows. I am more worried about the cramping than anything else.

ETA: do you need to have the watch-y thing-y too? or does the nike+ replace that? I have Nike+ Sportband now. Any suggestions on…

Dumb Cooking Question
Why do recipes for meat always have cream of whatever soup? I am really picky and don't like wet slimey food. What does the soup do? Does it just make a gravy?

Question about left overs
I bought a hot rotisserie chicken yesterday from the grocery store. I ate part of it, and I let it cool down and put it in the fridge last night. Would it still be okay to eat tomorrow night? I usually don't cook enough to have left overs or eat it the next day. Thanks :)

13 Months (with pics)
I've lost 90 lbs in the last 13 months. I've lost 110 lbs to date. The second pic, the bathing suit bottom is too big. I was obese for many years, and had two big babies :/ Off the top of my head (I will find my original stats and compare them at the start of Nov) I've lost about 9 inches from my waist, about 5 from my…
