How do some people get the job in the first place?!?
Okay, so this is more of a rant. I am payroll for my company. We have an ABM (Area Business Manager) that seems to think 2+2=chair. He makes one of his employees leave half way through the day Friday and then lets someone else from another department do her job. The union contract states that original employees in the…

String Cheese
I was watching my children eat lunch today and noticed they each eat string cheese differently. This had me curious. How do you eat your string cheese? Do you peel back the layers or just bite of chunks until gone?

For the guys...women can answer to :-)
My hubby has been getting discouraged lately and I'm not sure how to help him. He really got serious about this journey about 5 months ago. He started out at 330 lbs and he's 6'3". In the first few months he was doing only cardio and dropped his calories to 1800 a day. He lost a good 30 lbs. About a month ago he started SL…

So, there's this fork...
In the road at the end of Complacency Lane. I seem to have pitched a tent there over the last couple months. On the one side is "I Am Awesome" Court coming to the corner of Happy and Healthy (thank you Walgreens). On the other side is "I don't care anymore" Avenue coming to the corner of "Oh crap, what have I done?" Blvd…

I hope this helps...
For those of you questioning how often to weigh yourself, this post is aimed toward you. Persoanlly, I weigh myself every day. I like to know the affect of what I did, or didn't do, the day prior will have on my body. I like to see my trends. It benefits me to know how the massive amounts of sodium I took in the begining…

Elevator Etiquette
So this morning at work I was getting on the elevator from the 5th floor down to the 1st to get breakfast. The elevator was coming from the 6th floor so I naturally assumed someone was on it. I step back thinking this person might want to get off on the 5th floor where I was. So I'm waiting and the door finally opens, I…

Okay I must be dumb...
Who is this Dave Grohl and why has his gifs been so popular in the forums these last couple weeks?

Please read before entering the forums...
Tip #1-Fruit has calories just like (most) everything else. You CAN get fat from it if you eat enough of it to go over maintenance. Tip #2-A lot of stupid questions and sarcastic answers could be avoided by utilizing the search topic feature. Tip #3-You may lose 15 lbs the first two weeks. Don't count on that to be steady.…

What comes after Stronglifts
So, I have been doing Stronglifts 5X5 since March 12 of this year. I know it hasn't been very long and I will give it some more time. It has done some great things for my body and my strength, I just don't think it's doing it for me anymore. I get up to a certain weight in my lifts and fail. It's common and expected. I…

Antibiotics making your kids fat!!!
So, I was watching Dr. Oz yesterday. I know, I know, Dr. Oz is the devil to most people but his show is such a train wreck, I couldn't look away. Dr. Phil is on before him and I just didn't change the channel in time. His show was on antibiotics making us fat and to watch out for it in children especially. We're all born…

One more small NSV
About a month ago my BMI hit the overweight mark as opposed to the obese BMI I've always had since I can remember. The victory: My life insurance premium went down due my weight loss.

SL 5X5 Mini Success
If anyone ever tells you that doing squats with the Smith or Jones Smith machines are the same as doing them in a power cage with a free bar is WRONG!!! I learned this lesson today. I started SL 5X5 4 weeks ago and I had been doing my squats with the Smith machine. I was so proud of myself for being able to get up to 60 lb…

Lifting Order
Ok, so I know there is a certain order to doing SL 5X5 and I have been folowing that order so far. I always start with the squats, due to the beleif that it's the most important in the sequence of lifting. However, I came across a problem today and I think I have a solution, I just need to know if it's ok to do or if I…

Frozen
Okay, so in the movie Idina Menzel sings "Let it Go" but at the end credits it's sung by Demi Lovato. Which version do you like better? I have a new found obsession with this movie. LOL :-)

Just starting out
Completed day 2 of SL 5X5. I have sore muscles in my *kitten* that I didn't know I had, but I feel great about this new workout. I've never really lifted before, at least not in a gym setting. I move my furniture around all the time. I've usually only done cardio and the resistance machines at the gym so this'll be a good…
