Hi Jessica, My thighs naturally tend to be thick. Even when I was 117 pounds in high school and skinny as a rail, my legs were pretty thick for my size. I'm still fairly new (about 6 months) to stepping but have not seen the size of my legs increase. They've actually shrunk a little and...

Hi Linda, It sounds like you're trying to keep all your magazines. I took a more drastic approach. I had way too many and they were taking up too much space. So, I sorted my magazines and dedicated a set amount of time each day/week to go through each magazine. I tore out the articles I...

Oh, I have so many of these. The two that immediately come to mind are the time when I started the gas pump to fill up my car, walked into the convenience store to get a paper, walked back out to my car, got in and drove away without removing the gas pumping device from my car. Completely...

Well perhaps our government should do what the Europeans have done and require that tips be included in the menu prices? Why create a situation where people have to depend on patrons to make a living and not make tipping mandatory. It really does not make sense and I don't think this should be...

CoralOcean, Please help me understand why you choose to work in an industry where your livelihood is dependent on the kindness of strangers (I say this because as strongly as you feel people should tip, there are people who feel just as strongly that they should not have to. And, in fact...

1 hour max and rarely on weekends. If I workout on a weekend it's usually something light like Yoga or Pilates. Every once in a while, I will do a more strenuous workout on the weekends to make up for a missed day during the week. Tracey "Where there's a will, there's a way."

>Regarding the idea that you shouldn't have to tip if the >service is bad... I have to ask.. where are people eating >where they get bad service?< I think the main thing I experience is inattention on the server's part. They come to take your order, they deliver your food, they bring the...

>You can take your butt to the grocery store, >take the food home, prep & clean it, cook it, then serve it to >yourself!< Jen, the wait staff is not prepping, cleaning, or cooking the food. If we're talking about fairness, shouldn't the chef get a portion of the server's tip for providing...

>I don't really travel abroad, but isn't this more of an >American custom? I was in Germany last year and when you eat out, the tip (and tax) were included in the menu prices. That was the good thing about Germany/Europe. The price marked on an item was what you paid. Of course, we and...

We *only* tip wait staff and maids at hotels. And the wait staff only get a tip if we were happy with their service. I understand that they make less than minimum wage but that is an issue for our government to address. I don't feel it is my obligation to tip. I do it in appreciation for...

That nagging voice in my head that doesn't go away until I work out and being able to look at myself naked without cringing.;)

Adina, My hats off to you if you make baskets. I've tried it and it is hell on your hands. $50 is pretty steep though. Tracey "Where there's a will, there's a way."

Thank you for the recipe Gayle. I have some buttermilk that I need to use before it goes bad. This sounds perfect. Tracey "Where there's a will, there's a way."

Right now, it looks like Yoga/Pilates. Tracey "Where there's a will, there's a way."

It sounds like this was one slip up after a few days?/weeks? of eating better. Why beat yourself up? Enjoy the potato chips and continue eating well tomorrow. The occasional chip(s) is not going to undo everything you've done in one meal. The daily chip(s) on the other hand... ;). Tracey...

I am an Operations Analyst in the utilities industry. Sorry, no I love my job story here. Minute by minute, it is sucking the life out of me :(. Tracey "Where there's a will, there's a way."

Tracey M, I just wanted to mention how creeped out I am every time I see your posts :7. We share the same first name and at least the same last name initial (I hope we don't have the same last name :7). I always do a double take and have to remind myself that I didn't post that. Tracey...
