    Frozen Blueberries

    I remembered this post and bought some frozen blueberries to put on my greek yogurt. I just put some frozen blueberries in the bottom of the bowl and dumped the yogurt on top and left it on the counter for about 10 min. I came back thinking the blueberries would be starting to unthaw and...

    Stubborn, bullheaded, unhealthy father! (very long)

    64 is not old but if your father is depressed then he is thinking that life sucks and his kids are grown and there is nothing left for him. So he is technically taking himself out of life. Nagging him is not going to change the situation. What will change it is showing him that life is...

    Just whining, I guess

    Kinda sounds like depression. Are you taking 50mg of 5htp or 100? Take 100 if you are taking 50. Have your vit. D. checked and Folic acid also. It's time for the S.A.D. season to kick in. Getting lots of light or using a light box will help if you have that.

    Breathe Right Strips

    Snoring is rarely solved thru opening the nasal passages. It's usually due to excess fat around the throat or inside the throat, or the falling back of the lower jaw. Try a snoring pillow. Make sure he is not sleeping on his back. Try a puresleep.com mouthguard - if it works then find a...

    Anyone have the Dyson Vacuum cleaner?

    I have the dyson animal that is years old. My daughter now uses it. I now have the dyson lighter version for my smaller house. A dyson is worth the investment. If you have a bed bath and beyond, their coupons are good on dyson.

    Sounds interesting but I think I'll wait until I'm over my hot flashes before getting in a 105 degree room !

    Looking for an E-workout partner

    Is there a forum where people can get a online workout partner so you can have someone to be accountable to ? I think it would help me to encourage someone in their fitness goals and have someone that I have to tell if I worked out or not. Kinda like the check-ins but more on a one-on-one...

    What to Buy?!?

    I don't like the reformer you have bookmarked. It's easier to use if it's off the floor and the pullies are on the side, not a good place. The stamina reformers with a jump board are not too bad an option. If you replace the pullies with ones from Stott or Balanced Body then you have a decent...

    sad

    I'm sorry. Sometimes life just throws a crap load at you at once. Take it one day at a time. Your sunny bear is gonna be just fine after surgery. You are not losing your Dad, his memory is forever in your heart. Losing the home is not losing his memory. I'm sure it might be a new start...

    How would you feel if your husband.....

    Your husband is angry that your son has caused you pain and has disrupted his life in immeasurably. He probably feels like you are soft on your son and enabling him, thus causing the whole family to endure more pain. Since he feels he cannot communicate with you about this issue he has taken...

    How would you feel if your husband.....

    I believe the difference in what you are describing and worknprogress is that you would have set up your relationship to be open whereas worknprogress's husband is going behind her back and snooping. Her husband is not being open with her and asking what is going on with her children, he chose...

    How would you feel if your husband.....

    I'll be brutally honest - This type of behavior scares the hell out of me. Your husband has a very high control issue. This type of behavior only leads to further escalations and it's such a instinct in people that you will not be able to control it. It's like an addiction. My father...

    Please please please help!

    Maybe get a piece of 1/2" plywood 6" wider than the treadmill to even out the footprint. Then put a cork layer on top of the plywood. Then center the treadmill on this base. Check this site out : http://www.soundproofing.org/infopages/vibrationpads.htm

    best elliptical?

    I got a horizon ex-78 w/incline and it had issues where when you got to 5.0 mph the speed would show 2.4. I was not fixable. They finally sent me out a AFG 4.0. I really like the AFG 4.0 Livestrong is also made by a division of Horizon. I've seen the models at Dicks. They are very...
