Flax seed
I kept reading about flax seed on this site so when I was at the store yesterday, I decided to get some. I put some in my yogurt last night and it was quite good. I left it at home since you have to refrigerate after opening. I'm going to get some more to keep at work. Thanks to everyone who suggested flax seed as a source…

Water
I've decided to cut out the middle man (or in my case woman) when it comes to drinking water. I'm going to just put water in my water bottle, go into the bathroom and empty it into the toilet. That's where it all ends up anyway. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

Doin' the happy dance today!
After being on a plateau for about two months, and gaining another pound after Thanksgiving I finally broke the dreaded plateau and lost another pound. I finally hit the 147 mark. Ok, actually 147.8 but 147 none the less. So here's my happy dance. :happy:

Well what do you know!
I may not be losing weight (stupid plateau!!) but doing all that strenous exercising on my XL glider seems to be getting rid of some of the cottage cheese on my inner thighs. WOOHOO!!! :happy:

Skinny?

With a 5-lb. potato sack in each hand, extend your arms straight out from your sides, and hold them there as long as you can. Try to reach a full minute, and then relax. Each day you'll find that you can…

OT: Why women LIE
Why women LIE! One day, when a seamstress was sewing while sitting close to a river, her thimble fell into the river. When she cried out, the Lord appeared and asked, 'My dear child, why are you crying?' The seamstress replied that her thimble had fallen into the water and that she needed it to help her husband in making a…

I won!!! :happy: I'm sure the weight loss is because I'm sick from a cold, but I did it anyway. Now after I get better, I just have to not…

THIS ONE IS PRICELESS
I received this from the husband of a co-worker. THIS ONE IS PRICELESS Some people understand life better, and they call some of these people "retarded"...

It's so weird how so many people are disappearing. Do you suppose they're deactivating their accounts on purpose or is there a glitch somewhere?
