bumping!

Just wondering if I have any fellow fans close by who would want to meet for a run or a workout. Let me know! Julie

Oh joy! Just confirmed my DVDs are at the post office awaiting delivery. So want to get to Drill Max tomorrow or Wed. Can you all who have survived it break it down? Can't find the workout breakdowns anywhere. Point me to them someone if they exist. Thanks. Julie

Here's an idea of you have Boot Camp. Keep the weights light as (Cathe does in the workout) and just do the upper body workout 2 times - comes to about 18 minutes. Ditto on the lower body workout - Or just do the upper and lower body workouts one time through each. Again the weights are...

Tollhouse cookies Heather? How could you have resisted??? It's a few cookies, not a year's worth of binging. Move on, and next time enjoy the cookies more knowing you will make up for it on days to come. You're a healthy gal for life, no cookie munching session can change that! Julie

To everyone here, I have been free of this compulsion for over 15 years. Fifteen years!!! And how did I get free? Therapy and Overeaters Anonymous (OA). No it is not just for overweight people. It is for all of us with a compulsion around food. Saved my life. Really a map for life. There...

How DO you find the time for everything? Thanks for the rotation amidst all the editing and Halloween planning. Been feeling the need to do more strength,less pounding aerobics (been hiking in the mountains with the kids instead!). So thanks. The candy corns are my favorite. Yours? Julie

Monica been where you are (minus the dissertation, but 2 kids and f/t work) and here is what I did: reduced my expectations in terms of workingout 7 days/week for an hour. Them days are gone for me. I say start back to 3x per week - aim for realistics, not outrageous commitment. Also helps if...

Let me know when results come in. My family has experience with all the best and worst case scenarios related to this with my Dad. And he is fine fine fine!!! I can help. Will pray!!! Julie

Welcome to the "peri" club my friend. I am right there with you. Did you also get pimples like a teenager like I did? Migraines as well. Lucky us. What I have been doing is making sure I have lots of B vitamins, drink/eat soy products almost daily, and get extra sleep. Also chiropractic...

Sara here is one mother of kids who is 100% behind you. Withholding nutritious food is dangerous, period, and using food as a weapon is a sure way to encourage bad behavior around eating. Fight this, get with the school psychologist/counselor as well who can work with the teachers and that...

Shelly I will reply. I am buying straigh legged jeans at the Gapbecause I have none (not skinny jeans, I prefer breathing). Also a few longish fitted fine knit sweaters to wear belted over blouses/tops instead of suit jackets, or to wear over them new jeans. And two skinny black and brown...

Big hugs and I echo the advice to move on. Baby steps at first. I met my husband on my 34th birthday, after having gone through a searing break-up at 32 with someone. Big ouches, but time, professional help and the best family, friends and girlfriends ever saw me through (as well as running...

>I've been reading all the indignation here. All I have to say >is, "for God sake do something!" Do you realize that teachers >are being fed to the wolves because politicians make decisions >for school systems and they do it at the bidding of their >constituants. Please if you don't like...

Hi Steph - long time runner here. Can I add to the excellent advice here a few other things: take a warm/hot bath if you can, throw in some Epsom salt or kosher salt (really it works!) if you have it. Also some ibuprofin (Advil, Motrin) to help reduce the swelling caused by the run (that is...

Here is a great one: start now, get out that video camera/digital camera and create a video tribute. This is so much easier to do with technology being what it is. A local photo shop or a Mail Boxes place can assist. Create a theme like "what keeps these 2 together?" - whatever - and have you...

Thank you all so very much for your inpupt and for your good wishes. I am back at work today and took a pain killer since I felt another migraine coming on so am feeling I can bear it. All of your info was great, i will discuss with the oain specialist doc tomorrow. The Gatorade suggestion...

I had my first migraine in end of June. Then in the last three weeks, three more - 2 this past weekend which sent me to the hospital. No stress as cause - just arrived back from an incredinel vacation. Life is great. I am over 40 so this is supposed to be a bit late to get these. Going to a...

Intuitive. I eat very healthy most of the time, sometimes not, nothing is off limits. Years of obsessive food habits have led me to at last say live and let live. And I must say girlfriend looks pretty good. Bring on the buttered corn on the cob!

First of all, I must say I admire you tremendously. Fifteen years old and you write so beautifully!! And hardly any spelling or grammar errors. My dear you are both athletic and articulate. Be proud. I am old enough to be your mom, & I have two daughters who I hope have your admirable...
