What annoys you?
So everyone needs to let out steam every once in a while... I thought I'd start, and you can follow ** I can't stand when people walk, run, etc down the street when there's a perfectly good sidewalk right there! ** People who keep their ringing on, and it goes of at the theater... and then they answer it while sitting in…

Stupid question about exercise equipment
I'm not sure how to ask this... I was at Good Will the other day and saw exercise equipment. But I have no idea what it's called. You stand on it. It' not an elliptical I don't think. The foot things just swing back and forth. I know that's not a very good description, sorry!

Eating less than 1200calories to eating 1200+ calories?
Please don't tell me that eating less than 1200 calories puts me in starvation mode. I know, and I've heard this many times. It's not what I'm asking about. I eat when I'm hungry & I don't force myself to eat when I'm not. If I need food my body will tell me & then I go eat something. I usually eat around 800 calories a…

30 Day Shred- next level
For those doing the Shred, or have done it already.... When did you know it was time to move onto the next level? When it got boring? when you could do EVERYTHING? Did you do level 2 early just to see how hard it was out of curiosity, and if it wasn't too hard that's when you did it?

Said nice things, just to say cruel things! *sigh* =(
This didn't happen today, but it still bothers me. I wasn't feeling very good about being overweight, and the person I was talking to was trying to make me feel better about myself by telling me "benefits" of being overweight: Not using as much bath water, not being stuck in the back seat of the van with 2 other people and…

30 day shred (*sight*)
I bought the dvd today, and I'm so disappointed. Not in the dvd, that was great! But in myself! *sigh* There are 3 levels, they say to move to level 2 when you're ready> But it's the 30 Day Shred, so it makes it sound like you need to be able to do all 3 levels in 30 days. I don't think I can get to level 2 in 10 days.…

"Husband's suck" "I blame my husband" Etc....
First off of all, I'm not a "female dog", but I'm going to come off as one, just fair warning... I've read too many posts lately with women blaming their husbands & saying it's their fault that they're overweight. Also read another blog about a woman who was furious at her husband because he told her she needed to try…

When your diary tells you at the end of the day what you'll way in 5 weeks.... Does it care if you're eating vegis/fruit compared to candybars/marshmellows if you have the same amount of calories? I'm not really sure how to ask this question any better. Sorry. I know vegis are healthier, and candy isn't good for you. I'm…
