Heat and exercise
What is a good way to get exercise in, when the heat index is over 100? I can't really exercise outside, I have no real air conditioning for inside, and no money for a gym. I tried to weed my garden today and almost passed out in the heat. Any ideas?? What is your favorite way to exercise in extreme heat?

Confused over scale
Today I stepped back on the scale and it said I had gained back every pound that I had lost at one time:( I was very depressed.

It was ice, green tea, mango, ginsing, guarana(sp) all crushed up like a smoothie. it did not include any yogurt or dairy products since I am allergic. The coffee shop did not have nutritional info for this drink. I came home and googled it and…

substitutions for bread
I have noticed that white bread takes up a lot of my calories. Because of some medical conditions I cannot handle wheat bread of any kind. White bread is the only bread I have been able to tolerate. I love lunch meat and it seems to be pretty low in calories for a quick lunch but the bread (2 slices white) is taking up a…

The doctor I go to has wanted me to take diet pills for some time now. I refused them. I wanted to lose the weight on my own. I have 30 lbs to lose to be considered a high normal rate.
