Quick tone
I have about a month and I'd like to tone my arms and back. I'd love suggestions on what type of excersises I can do to move that process along quicker than a regular fitness routine. Thanks!

We got onto the highway (2 lanes) and a bit up the road we saw a mother duck (not sure exactly what kind) sitting in the middle of the high speed lane (I don't know if she was dead or not) there were also 2 already dead chicks and about 6 or…

Question for the men...
Or ladies if you want to chime in. There is a man at work that I've been thinking about asking if he wants to get together outside of work to hang out. Grab a beer, shoot some pool kind of thing. I am interested only in a friendly thing. We seem to have some things in common, and when we do have short conversations, they…

Elementary Math.....HELP!
This is the question.... A lock combination has 3 different digits. The product of the digits is 60. The sum of the digits is 12. The greatest digit is the middle number. What 2 combinations are possible? We're not looking for the answer...but what do they mean by the product? Sometimes my daughters homework makes me feel…

Parenting advice needed......
My daughter is 10 years old and the other day I took her over to a friends house to play for a few hours. I told her I'd be back around 5. Well, I did some shopping (30% off coupon @ Kohls hehehe) and killed as much time as I could and decided to just pick her up on the way by. ( I had no intention on going all the way…

Cute, short story...
My 9 year old daughter had a friend over on Saturday afternoon. We were sitting on the living room floor playing a game and she said to me... " I see lots of diet books, your not fat". I just wanted to hug and kiss her. That little girl can come over to our house anytime.

47 lbs.
Someone asked me the other day if I have lifted 47 lbs. ( the amount of weight I've lost) and carried it around. I can't believe how heavy that is. I wonder how I carried it day in and day out. Have any of you done this little experiment? I'd especially like to hear from Tamtastic on this one. Thanks:flowerforyou:

Slow, Fat, Triathelete
I would like to thank the person who had mentioned on one of these boards a few weeks ago that they had read this book. I bought it and had a hard time putting it down. I am actually tossing around in my head the thought of training for a sprint tri. So I need to give credit, because I never would have known that my slow,…

I hate my job.......
but in the "thriving" economy that we are living in, as much as I wish I could, I just can't quit. I have taken my first class this summer towards my degree. Oh why, oh why didn't I do this right after high school. Would I be able to survive and support my daughter if I worked part time to speed the process? What about…

To those who have been smoke free
I have tried numerous times to quit smoking...gum, patch, chantix...all but hypnosis. I was wondering how all of you have done it. How many times have you tried before it stuck? Has anyone done hypnosis?

Attention Ladies!!!!
No matter where I shop, I never seem to be able to find a good bra. I find that I like the support of the underwire, but they are very uncomfortable for me. I've had a child so the girls are nothing but flat pancakes. All I want is for them to be positioned where they belong, and be comfortable. Do you have a favorite…

Plateau
I am in week 3 of my plateau. Does anyone have any ideas on shaking things up a bit to get the ball dropping? or should I just let it be and ride it out? How long did your plateau last?

Parents without partners
I was just wondering if there was anyone involved with this organization. I need to find some way to meet people and I have a chapter that is local, but I'm curious about anyone else's experience with the group. Thanks :tongue:

Want to run
I would love to run....or at least jog. I have a hard time with my breathing. I've tried the run a minute or two and walk for a minute or two, but I can't get past that...I can't breath. Any suggestions to build up my endurance in that department? Thanks in advance.

I wish I had...but I didn't
When I started my journey in February I didn't take a before picture, and I didn't take any measurements. All I have is a size 18 pair of pants. (Now in a 14) But boy I regret not having those 2 little things. What do you wish you had if anything?

Bucket List
Okay, I know I don't want to think about dying, but I saw the movie and it got me to thinking about some of the things I've always wanted to do but haven't yet. 1. Drive cross country using the blue highways on the map. I'd like to visit small town USA ( the population 2 towns ), amusement parks, Grand Canyon, Alaska and…

Not so newbee
Hi All, I'm not quite the newbee, I have been lurking around the site for a few weeks now. I really love how supportive everyone is to each other so I thought it about time to introduce myself. My name is Amy, I'm a single mom...she is 9. I've been working at making this life change sense mid February. I've lost 33lbs so…
