NSV...
I went to Bounce U yesterday for my little nephew's birthday (Happy Birthday, Micah!). There were a number of pictures and video clips taken, some in not so flattering positions (i.e. rolling down the giant inflatable slide).

What's with all these closed groups?
I've been seeing a lot of "closed group" posts lately. Is it just me or does it seem odd that a person would start a post on a public forum and basically tell the rest of us to keep out?

I'm not much of a cook, but tonight I made a recipe I found in a Cooking Light cookbook (also available online) and it was so delicious that I just had to share! It's a pork loin and apple dish -- the apples taste like apple pie filling. Definitely not like normal diet food. All for 251 calories per serving!! Link to the…

Plateau!
Sadly, my weight loss has come to a screaching halt. I'm below the recommended calorie target most days, but I'm just not losing anything. :( A friend of mine was telling me about someone who studied this and suggests you increase your calorie intake one day, decrease it the next few days and so on... Anyone know where I…

Headaches?

On my quest to adopt a new lifestyle, I know I have to get over it and get my butt in gear! If there's anyone out there used to be anti-exercise and has…
