Foot pain...
So, my doctor told me I have "plantar fasciaitis" (and the Dr. Scholl's thing said I have flat feet)....I like to do a lot of cardio-type exercises (jump rope, zumba, elliptical, roller skating, etc), however lately when I have been working out my feet have hurt soooooo incredibly bad. It got to a point where when I'd jump…

OCD and weigh-ins
I don't have a scale at home. I've never bought one...and for a good reason. I'm terribly OCD about weighing myself if I have a scale nearby. When I worked at the hospital, I would weigh myself numerous times a day. I know this is not good. So, I've never bought one for home 'cuz I know I will end up right back in that…

New here...hope this place helps
Hi all....I'm new to this site; it was recommended by a lady on another messageboard that I frequent. I am hoping to lose about 60-70 lbs. I am an outdoorsy type person and I do love to work out....but, it's the motivation I seem to be lacking. :P When I was in the Army, I had no problem working out because, well, we had…
