How do I breakup with my sons ex?
Any advice on how to kindly tell her I don’t think we should be chatting, texting, etc? I just don’t feel comfortable. It’s been 10 years since they were together but he has someone in his life now and I don’t want to feel like I’m betraying them.

still would like to add exercise cals
Hi guys, I see some people only add 1 calorie for their exercise because those cals are included. Others I see are still adding the total cals burned for your workout.....how do you go about doing that? What if that is a different amount every other day??

What do you think....
I am 5'8', 47, 220, female. I do C25K 3 times a week and JM Shred every day usually. I have been eating 1500 calories and eating back my exercise calories.

Inspiration...
I have this on my desktop to remind me that slips are ok and that I don not want to start over... Think of trying to push a car up a hill. If it slips a bit and you catch it and keep pushing you haven't lost much. If it slips and you let it slide you will have to go back down the hill and start all over again. It's the…

this site. I luv it. I used to belong to WW online, but I found that the discussions weren't as interesting and, as others have mentioned, could get kind of ugly at times. These boards change so fast there is always something new to read. Way to go to everyone on here, you inspire me and give me the hope I can do this too.…
