    Anyone have any new goals?

    Lorri, That is awesome, but yes toss that scale out, it's evil and lies. It'll tell you your fat when your not. It won't tell you at times when you've lost weight. The only thing I've actually found it good for, is seeing if your dyhrated or not. It'll show water loss without a problem...

    Marcia, Glad your okay, and yes, that was very very dumb, and hopefully you'll never do that again to yourself. You really should have gotten to the ER and got pumped full of fluid if you were feeling that bad after the run and not sweating. As heat sickness can last for days, and you'll...
