Question about signing up for Warrior Dash
Can you buy more than 1 ticket at a time on the Warrior Dash Website? today is the last day of registration before a price hike, so I want to get this done today. My boyfriend and I are going to do it together and I want to buy our tickets together (why pay 2 processing fees??). Or is the website set up to only buy 1…

is it really that expensive??
I just looked at the EOB for the orthotics I got at my podiatrist last week. I knew they were expensive, but is $205 PER FOOT right???? My insurance didn't pay anything on them so the girl said they'd give me a discount. I was under the impression that it was $205 for the set, but its on the EOB twice. What did you pay for…

custom made orthotics?
To those with the podiatrist made, custom fit orthotics---how long does the orthotic last? Does it ever wear out? Will it need to be replaced eventually? I'm going to have them put in my tennis shoes so that it will be more gentle on my feet/knees/legs/back when I run. But I'm wondering if they will wear out faster by…

Heart Rate Monitor with or without chest strap?
I'm looking at getting a heart rate monitor. Can you guys give me your opinions on the pros/cons of having the chest strap version? Is it more accurate? I don't normally wear a watch and I imagine having a monitor without the strap would get on my nerves......anyone have that problem? Wish they got the other version?…

support our troops
I know this is completely off topic, but I feel it's worth it. It literally takes 5 seconds to send a card. http://www.letssaythanks.com You can pick out a thank you card, Xerox will print it and it will be sent to a soldier that is currently serving. You can't pick out who gets it, but it will go to a member of the armed…

under estimating myself
I've been going to the gym/exercising for the past year. I've only focused on cardio up until last week. I've started using the weight machines. Tonight I decided to try something. I upped the weights on every machine I was on until I felt like jello/was a little shakey/really had to put a lot of effort in on the 8th rep.…

looking for specific B&A pictures
Every body type is different. I'm looking for Before and After pictures of girls in the 5'5"-5'7" height range. Sometimes its confusing to see one person at 150lb who looks fabulous and another at 155 who still looks obese (but I know the difference has a lot to do with height). If you are a female between those heights,…

how much does p90x cost?
How much does it cost at full retail? What does it include (its exercise and a meal plan right? can they be bought separately?) Did you buy yours "secondhand" (ebay, craigslist, amazon "used") and how much was it? Are there scammers who have pirated copies of it out there? THANKS!

funny story for ya
Monday night the battery died in my mp3 player. I had my cell phone with me so I plugged my headphones in that and listened to the few songs I have on that. Tuesday and last night, I basically just left my mp3 player plugged in to my laptop. Tonight I took it off the laptop and went to the gym. Got to the gym, turned on…

sauce you marinate in?
How do you count the sauce that you marinate meat in? Its not like it ALL soaks into the meat (in my case, chicken). Do you just over compensate it and count all the calories of the sauce/dressing you poured even though you don't consume all of it?

Below is a link to my mom's profile here on myfitnesspal. For as long as I can remember, she's always been stressed over her weight. I'm not sure how long ago she actually joined the site, but today she finally asked me how I've lost weight and I'm hoping she was really listening to it. I keep recommending her to this…

fighting this depression
