the best piece of exercise equipment?
Aside from a lot of dog walking and my wii fit, I want to get more exercise in, get a bit more fit and burn more calories. I live in a small town and we don't have a gym or anything like that-and with winter coming walks will be getting shorter (The dog won't stay out once it's -25!). So I want to get some type of exercise…

Time for a belt
It's been about 6 weeks give or take since I really started this. This is my first little victory! This morning I went to put my jeans on-didn't even need to undo the button.

Healthy diet and the liver
Just wondering if there is anyone on these boards who is using weight control and a healthy diet as a way of helping to treat or control issues with their liver? And if so, can you share what you are doing and how it is working for you? My motivation for weight loss is partially based on that, but I also find that how I…

A new journey
For the last few years I have hated my body. I used to be energetic and active and could put on a dress and feel pretty. Now I won't wear anything that goes above the knee because I look lumpy and I am embarrassed of my body. I am tired and run out of energy and have enough health problems without obesity being one of…
