Pork Anyone?
I have a TON of ham I need to use up and need some recipes or ideas for what to do with it. Ham blows me up with all the sodium in it so I'm not sure I want to just keep eating it for leftovers but maybe a soup or something similar would be better...help!!!

You Eat WHAT?!
What are some things you eat, whether strange combinations of flavors or things that just aren't supposed to be consumed... For me its lemons...I've always liked to eat lemons...I cut them in wedges and put salt on them and eat it just like an orange. I used to work with a girl that nibbled little pieces off of her glue…

Lost weight-new VS bras don't fit (size 36D)

Calling all Psychology peeps!
Any Psychology majors or buffs out there? I have a question... In 2010, we bought the treadmill and I used it faithfully nearly every day for almost a solid year before we moved. We moved in May of 2011 to this apartment and brought the treadmill with us...for some reason I can't get used to the idea that I still have a…

I need a BOUNCER!
Here's the story...I work part time Tuesday through Thursday...it's been this way for almost 4 years. Since we sold our farm, our office manager is always asking me to come in on my days off for one reason or another and I always do. We're getting electronic medical records soon and there's some data entry that needs to be…

Are there any legitimate work from home jobs out there?? I need a job I can do from home...anyone have any ideas? Seriously. I need something I can do from anywhere...with a computer.

Shoes for Zumba
Can anyone recommend a good supportive shoe for my Zumba workouts? I'm on a carpeted surface so regular cross trainers don't work as I don't have the ability to twist and slide my feet. I've been doing it barefoot but near the end, I always feel like my feet are getting weak...a pain in the top of my foot & sometimes in my…

HRM ~ When do you stop yours after a workout?
That's my question... My Max Heart Rate is 174, 75-85% of that is between 131-148. When I'm working out, I try to stay as close to 148 as I can and sometimes even go over. When I'm finished with my workout, my heart rate stays up there for a while and gradually comes down to normal. At what point do I want to stop the…

How long does it take?
Does anyone happen to know...how long it takes for the day's nutritional input to show up on the scale? What I mean is, if a person ate enough calories to cause them to gain (for instance) would it show up the very next day or is there some amount of time for the physiological process to take place in your body? Same…

Zumba Anyone?
I just purchased the Zumba CD's and they arrived in the mail last week. I LOVE to dance so I thought this might be a more fun way to work out and something I can switch up with the running on the treadmill that I'm already doing. I've been watching the CD's while I'm on the treadmill so I can get some idea of what to…

Roller Coaster Frustration

Heart Rate Monitors that count calories
I was curious what HRM you guys use and if they're accurate when compared to the treadmill for instance. My treadmill takes into account my age, weight etc. I was mostly wanting to get one to count calories burned while doing my Zumba workouts. But, I recently read the following and was quite disturbed by what I read but…

Just found myfitnesspal this weekend and want to start my week with a bang so I'm sitting down finally to see if I can learn to navigate my way around and figure out where things are. I set up my profile etc. Now, to make some friends and help encourage others!
