I still love Nike shoes...they treat my feet the best. I can't stop wearing them due to this...I would be punishing myself. I understand there are some people here who love dogs. I don't love dogs, but I HATE animal cruelty. (I have a fear of big dogs...childhood fear that I can't get...

As someone mentioned above, Vick is a THUG. Probably pulled off the streets by the NFL to play football (not my words, don't flame me, dh said it ;) Now, he is a rich thug, but still a thug. I certainly will not stop shopping at HD (i really like that store) or stop buying nike due to a...

Thanks for all of the replies. I do feel better about my decision to not follow specific diets and guidelines. I like to eat fresh fruits and veggies, but sometimes I want a cookie or some salty chips...you know what I mean? If I am following a diet and I eat a cookie (or 3), I feel like a...

guess i should have said "eat to stay in shape" ;) sara

Jess, you sound like a great mom!!! I used to do the same thing with tacos...just make a salad out of it. However, this week (we have tacos alot....all 3 of my kids love them!) I made myself one taco and stuffed it with everything and was stuffed after one!!! Before (when I would do the salad...

Thank you for all the replies!!!! It is good to know there are others who are not strict either! Thanks again!!! Sara

I guess I should have said that I do make healthy choices with my meals. We buy meat from a local farmer, I use butter instead of margarine, and I always have a supply of fresh fruits and veggies. We don't eat all junk all the time. Today, however, my kids and I are making choc chip cookies...

Other workouts: yard work (never ending in the summer) taking kiddos to the park (we go there to ride bikes; I swear, forget drill max...have you ever tried to load 3 bikes in the back of an suv???? very challenging ;) bleaching the siding on the house (I do this all by hand)...

Debbie, I have tried low fat, low calorie, low carb, etc. Basically, I am sick of buying special foods and cooking special foods. For example, if I would make spaghetti, I would just eat the meat, while everybody else ate the noodles and garlic bread. So, (imagine this) I find myself sitting...

I have tried about every diet under the sun. Everytime I do, it never works. It seems I have to make separate food at every meal, which is a pain! Like last night, I made mac n cheese and baked beans (with bacon) as side dishes. Normally, I would skip the mac and eat a tiny bit of the beans...

I know the feeling....I had my 1st pedicure about a month ago. (surprise gift from dh). The place came highly recommended from a friend. Well, I get there and the place was a dump! His salon was dirty, I sat in an old uncomfortable chair, soaked my feet in an old, loud foot soaker, all while he...

Melissa, Did you go to the track? How was it? We went yesterday too. Kids had fun and my legs are a little sore! I race ds (almost 7). He is fast!!! I have to work hard to stay ahead of him. I think this helps him build speed when he has some competition. Both of my ds's (7 and 5) ran one...

Melissa, My kids are 7, 5, and 2 also!!! I w/o in the morning before they are up. Sometimes, my youngest will wake up during this time. I give her a sippy cup and she sits on the couch and watches. She usually falls asleep. My oldest is going back to school in a couple weeks. Here lately...

I got married at age 21 and my 1st ds was born about 6 months later. I have a crazy little breakdown of pregnancies and breastfeeding.... 21- ds born 22- still nursing 23- 2nd ds born 24- nursing 25- pregnant with 3rd dd (but did not know yet) 26- still nursing 27- free 28- free You...

Shelley, My dh does not own a tie!!! He wears slacks, button-up shirts, black belt, and dress shoes. He always looks very nice. Formal sucks...imo!!! Sara

Jordon....lol!!! I took my kids for some ice cream the other day at a local "park and eat" ice cream shop. We all got cones (small and baby sized) and it was $7!!!! Crazy, huh? Sara

You know, my step-dad is a farmer with corn being his major crop. He has not mentioned one thing about producing more corn, ethanol, etc. I will have to ask him about that. I do know that my family will be cutting back on milk!!! I have a family of five and we go through 3-4 gallons a week...

Have any of you seen or heard this? My sister said the price went up to almost $4 a gallon (this is for the store brand!). I haven't bought milk for a few days so I don't know.... Thanks! Sara

Gosh, all of these cyber arguments are so silly! Makes me lol a bit....sorry, but, come on..... Sara
