May have setbacks, but I'm not what I was!
Recently found a question I asked on Yahoo! Answers and had a moment of epiphany: "I'm 30 years old, 270 lbs. and 5'8". I have a voracious appetite. I'm wondering what's a good calorie count for me to have to lose about 2 pounds a week. Also, how many grams of fat (saturated especially) is ok per day. I've heard that…

How long to wear HRM?
How long after exercise do you wear your HRM? I let mine go until I'm below my target rate, about 120 (my rate's like 121-159). I've heard people say they wait until it's below 100. Is there a "proper" way to do it?

Who's That Hottie in the Mirror? Why It's ME!
I'm a preschool teacher and today I was teaching in a different classroom. There is a huge mirror across from the main table and I was able to watch myself teach.

HEY Juicer People!
I made my first juice today. 2.6 oz. baby carrots, 1 medium apple, and 3 strawberries. I got about 5 oz juice out of that. :( Tasted really good though! Juicer is not fun to clean either. The amount of waste is depressing. I can't tell if it's because of the juicer or if this is just how it goes... BUT...it tasted GOOD! :)…
