    how to get my hair to grow

    I'm in the same boat as you! I've taken all the vitamins and condition my hair and rarely style with heat, all in the hopes of leaving my hair in good condition so it grows, but... alas, it still grows SLOOOOOOOOWLY and seems to stop just at my shoulders. I can't really offer any solutions...

    when healthy became unhealthy

    Man oh man can I relate! I too toggle from one extreme to the other and can't seem to shake these last 5-7 pounds. Just when I make progress in losing them, I gain them all back in a matter of a few days, it seems. Sigh.

    when healthy became unhealthy

    Others have stated this far more eloquently than I, but I just wanted to say I can totally relate and it just gets so frustrating at times. I do feel as though I'm "failing" in some way, regardless of whether I'm strictly regimented or when I'm trying to eat more intuitively. While I have good...

    Now THAT is a workout!

    I'm kind of scared to try the other HIIT workouts, but I also want to conquer my fear ;)

    Jillian M. said "it's mostly clean diet" not workout length!

    That girl has a physique to envy, that's for sure! I love her arms. Oh, to get that kind of definition in mine...

    Now THAT is a workout!

    I just did HIIT (Double Wave) for the first time and... HOLY SMOKES!! I *think* I'm still alive, but it was a little iffy there for a while :p. If this doesn't blast my unwanted fat from here to kingdom come, then I don't know what will. Man, that was intense! I've been doing HIIT on the...

    Lauren Brooks Ultimate Body Sculpt Volute 2 Kettlebell DVD

    Can't wait to try it either! I have two weeks to go in my AHB program, but I'm going to cut it short so I can launch into a kettlebell rotation. I previewed Lauren's new DVD when I got it on Thursday and that was all I needed in terms of motivation :). I love that the workouts are all 25 min...

    Lauren Brooks

    I love, love, love her first DVD! It's pretty intense--it gets my heart rate up, that's for sure. Those mountain climbers are killer. I was so excited to see she was doing a second DVD, so I pre-ordered.

    As the World Turns

    I was so sad to hear this :(. I hadn't watched in a long time--truthfully, haven't watched regularly since the first time Paul Leyden left (though I did tune in whenever they did bring him back), but I just started watching again when he came back a few weeks ago. Now this? Boo :(. Now I'm...

    Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows trailer!

    Kristin: they're not just thinking about it; they've already done it :). Part 1 of DH comes out next November and part 2 comes out in July 2011. At least they're only 6 months apart *sigh*.

    Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows trailer!

    Hi everyone, I know there are lots of other Harry Potter fans on these forums, so I thought I'd share this gem I just came across on Facebook!! http://harrypotterfan.me/forums/deathly-hallows-1-and-2/deathly-hallows-original-teaser-trailer/ I wish we didn't have to wait another year for...

    For those who have done kettlebell-only rotations...

    Oh I'm definitely convinced :). Everything I've ever read about kettlebells makes me want to do them more often--I always love the way I feel after I do a kettlebell workout! Thanks for the tip, Clare! I'll have to check that out! Deanie and Kathryn: does ETC the book also have...

    For those who have done kettlebell-only rotations...

    Thanks, everyone! What does ETK stand for? I want to check this out :). And I'm not really looking to grow in size in these other muscle groups--my goal is just to make sure I'm maintaining strength in those areas, while keeping everything balanced. It was imbalance in my muscle strength...

    For those who have done kettlebell-only rotations...

    Hi everyone, I know some here have done kettlebell-only rotations and have had great results--I was just wondering, did you have to supplement with extra bicep/tricep/chest work, or did you feel that the kettlebell workouts were able to cover these body parts as well? I'm thinking of doing...

    Eating for long runs

    As someone mentioned earlier, you'll need to see how much food your body can tolerate before a long run. I personally can't have anything too heavy--but neither can I have anything too light, or it's not enough and I get the hunger shakes/feel light-headed a few minutes in. I usually have cereal...

    kettlebell question

    pink_fortitude: when you were doing kettlebells exclusively, did you feel it was working all of your muscles pretty well? I know it does wonders for the core, legs, and shoulders, but what about the chest, back, biceps, and triceps? And also, did it seem to work more your lateral delts, or did...

    This makes me sick...

    I've been avoiding the news, since this happened locally. I can't think about it without getting disturbed. This poor girl. I just can't wrap my mind around it.

    Sparkpeople also has a (free) app. That's what I use :).

    Apples make me hungry. Anyone??

    Add me to this list! One of my all-time favorite snacks is apples and peanut butter, but go figure, I'm hungry again after about an hour!
