So when do you take your synthroid? I usually end up eating cereal and milk anywhere from one to three hours after I take mine. Hmmm...I wonder where one might find an open-minded doctor like that? That does not sound easy. I felt a lot better when I first went on synthroid in 2002 and have...

I've been out of the loop for a few months, what is TRX?

Actually WW has been encouraging healthier eating and better food choices for a long time. It's true you can "eat what you want", but they've always tried to encourage people to eat lean protein, whole grains, healthy fats and plenty of fruits and veggies. But it does sound like the new plan...

Are bananas considered 0 points too? They were 2 points on the old system and I know they have a lot of sugar in them.

Isn't that funny how things go by different names in different places? We called it slug bug too and when you punched someone you had to yell "slug bug".

Thanks for your reply. They sound slippery though. I'll have to give it a try.

I want to use gloves with my kettlebells because I get eczema on my hands pretty bad and it hurts to use them without gloves. I'm trying to find some thin ones that would work well with kettlebells. Do any of you use gloves? I did a search on this forum and found a suggestion for nylon danskin...

I'm new to kettlebells as well, so I don't have a lot of advice, but I first bought a 20# and it was too heavy for a lot of the moves, so I bought a 15# and I'm really glad I have both. It's usually recommended that most women start with a 15 or 18 and strong women start with a 20 lb bell. If I...

Both of these statements made me laugh so hard! So true!

Unfortunately some of you are judging the unschooling concept based on one video clip that you watched. The people in the video are EXTREME unschoolers and have actually taken it beyond unschooling into unparenting. Unschooling doesn't involve raising your kids without rules and letting them do...

Lori, I would love to get STS! I think you should do it! Let us know how travel fit works for you while you're traveling. I have been so freaking sick! In my last post I said that I was getting better, but had a cough that wouldn't go away. Well, I ended up getting sick again. I have a...

I totally agree!!!

Hi Lori, Thanks for the well wishes! I'm mostly better, but I have this cough that just won't go away. It didn't keep me from working out though. I did kettlebells on Sunday and Tuesday, I did 4DS upper body on Monday and I also did 4DS lower body on Tuesday. The kettlebells are really fun...

So I haven't been doing well lately with getting in my workouts. Three weeks ago I had a bad cold and didn't workout at all, then the next week I got some workouts in, but not nearly what I wanted, and then last week I got the stomach flu. We've been passing illnesses around my house. Now I have...

Gosh, I just realized it's the 2nd of the month and I said I was going to start a new thread on the 1st of the month, so I'm going to start a new thread today and I'll label it with yesterday's date.

Hi, I was thinking we could start a new thread once a month instead of weekly since we don't actually have that many posts and there seems to only be 3 of us now. I could start the new thread on the 1st of the month. Does that sound okay? I bought a kettlebell on Saturday. I bought a 20...

Melissa, Thanks for the great link, that really helped! I get it now, I just need to practice more. Sandra, I'm going to order Lauren's DVD right now! I'll think I'll order her first one and then later I can buy her second one if I like the first one.

Yay, I just bought my first kettlebell today! I'm planning on buying either Lauren Brook's DVD or AOS, but for now I've been looking at the ironcore DVD that came with the kettlebell. It's a gofit by the way. Anyway I bought the 20lb and I'm wondering if it's too heavy. I agonized over whether...

Lib, Where is your summer ready rotation? Is it in the rotations forum because I couldn't find it? Lori, Did you get your 5 workouts in? Good luck with the buffets. I don't know if I could handle that! Happy Anniversary! I'm feeling better from my cold, but I still have a nasty...

Thanks for the replies everyone! Thanks especially for the weight recommendations, I had no idea where to start. There is a Dick's sporting goods by me, so I'll go there and check out the kettlebells. I'm really excited to do a kettlebell workout, I just have to decide which DVDs to get and of...
