    What's so bad about dairy?

    LOL!!! If you were Peanut that's a different story then ;):D But I know what you mean, I didn't want to give it up either!! I am not a missionairy. If you want to keep drinking your skim milk by all means, go for it. I never understood though that someone would voluntarily drink skim milk...

    I was hacked!

    Another friend of mine had the same problem with his hotmail account. I think he contacted hotmail but I am not sure what the fix was. I think I received about 10 emails where someone hacked into his account. I have no good advice. I am sorry this happened to you, Belinda!!!

    Need advice from veggies, please

    I am just wondering where you get from that the body doesn't hold on to protein for longer than a couple of hours? Biochemistry 101 is that protein is broken down into amino acids and then released into the blood stream. The mere digestions of protein in the digestive tract doesn't mean that it...

    Tricia and Carola I got my Landrollers!

    BAWAHAHAHAHA! You sound like me!!! In fact, the swimming will be the hardest part for me too! I am terrified to even compare myself to others because it looks like I doggie paddle :eek: I can do the arm motion - by itself and I can do the leg kicking motion - by itself. But if I have to put the...

    What's so bad about dairy?

    Not to be argumentative but there is a lot that is wrong with milk and dairy products. There are books written about this topic, I will try to keep it short and to the point. The biggest problems are in the production, processing and the "ingredients". The American Dairy Industry has done a...

    Tricia and Carola I got my Landrollers!

    Janie, I bought my first road bike because I decided I wanted to train for a triathlon. I got a Specialized Secteur, it's men's bike. As I was told at the bike shop I have a longer torso, therefore I was leaning to far on even the large women's bike frame. I really like the bike and I trusted...

    What's Up with the Blue Cord on Tampax?

    Okay, I think I am dense but what's wrong with a blue string? Is it supposed to be pink? I don't even know what color the string of my tampon is :o

    Help for Dry Lips?

    I use Burt's Bees, Weleda or John Master's products. Maybe rather than using a topical product I would explore what the underlying cause of the dry lips is. Do you drink enough water? How is your diet? Is this a new occurance? Any recent changes in cosmetics, diet, lifestyle ? ....... Most of...

    Tricia and Carola I got my Landrollers!

    ROTFL!!! You are too funny!!! I am glad you got them! Your DH sounds like a keeper :) You are not a klutz!!!! I was thinking the other day that I should put myself in full body armour before I do anything outside. I just got my first roadbike and it took me just a few days to get pulled...

    financial advice

    Jean Chatzky has some great tools on Franklin Covey. Her Get-out-of-Debt Kit is pretty good, as is the Savings Kit and her books. It's pretty no nonsense. http://store.franklinplanner.com/store/category/prod2740008/US-New-Accessories/Get-Out-of-Debt-Kit?skuId=36920 Financial advisors are...

    Tricia and Carola I got my Landrollers!

    That is so cool, Janie!!!! I second what Tricia said, get the elbow pads!! And knee pads. I don't use the wrist guards, I find them really uncomfortable but they are probably a good idea. It didn't take you long to get them :D Did you find them on ebay?

    GREENS!

    I am sure they work for greens as well. Personally, I worry about chemicals leaching out of the plastic bags, especially when exposed to heat but I admit that I am a little bit of a worry wart about that. I use mostly glass containers for storage, avoid plastic water boottles, etc. I steam my...

    Beginning to Run

    I don't think you are that slow, you are just starting out so be kind to yourself. Speed will come! I started out running (well, more walking and jogging) in June 08. In the beginning I couldn't jog more than 20 seconds at a time. Now THAT is slow :eek:. I didn't really adhere to a specific...

    GREENS!

    I juice a lot of my greens or make green smoothies. I love "green lemonade". It is juiced kale, lettuce (romaine, escarole, etc), ginger, apple, whole lemon or celery, spinach, ginger, apple, whole lemon. I think it tastes pretty good and is a real pick me up. Most of my greens go into my...

    Cortisol/Adrenal Fatigue

    Why would you say that??? Many NMDs have just as much education as (many of them actually have many more years of education than MDs). What is true though that there are good doctors and bad doctors, and just because someone has a MD behind their name does not make them automatically "good" or...

    Calling All Enablers...SHOES!!!!

    I buy mine at www.sundancecatalog.com, www.athleta.com, www.zappos.com, www.dsw.com, www.piperlime.com and at Kohl's. I admire you guys to be able to balance on those high heels. For me, anything over 2 inches and I'd be breaking my arms and legs. :eek::confused::(

    So sad my dog won't stop biting!

    I don't think breaking the skin on numerous occassions and biting in the face is "normal" puppy behavior. Without knowing the dog and seeing the interaction with the owner it is next to impossible to judge what the underlying issue is. It may be aggression or dominance, or it may be that he...
