My chocolate crinkles & oatmeal raisin made with dried cranberries and golden raisins. *drool* Thanks for this thread :confused::p

GAP bootcut is the best of the best in my opinion. I get the ankle length and they are perfect. Plus, they don't stretch out like all the other jeans in the universe these days.

People can do whatever they want to be happy. I am all for happiness. Doesn't mean I would do the same thing necessarily, but if it isn't bothering me & I'm not getting anything shoved down my throat, what is the difference? I'm not a religious person, so take this for what it's worth -- so...

People do different things. My BF that just got married at the end of September picked her dress. I am happy to oblige since she did the same for me. As long as the dress isn't a bazillion dollars or has a huge honking bow on the ass.

1.I agree 100% with Bob when he said that woman is "Shakespearean". I think she is constantly plotting & scheming. While I agree you need to play the game, her attitude is rather distasteful. It's usually the most insecure people that need to take down others on a constant basis. 2. I didn't...

Hey girl! No worries ;) If you blink these days, you miss something, and that's in your OWN house :p We came out here June 9. We wanted to get out of NY for a loooong time. No family there & the cost of living was KILLING us. No place for a young family to start out (unless you are a part...

Yo there! My name is Debbie & I am 32 years young :p I live in the burbs of Chicago with my DH and 4.5 year old son, Aiden. I am a clinical social worker (families & children) by trade, but have stayed home since Aiden was born. I plan to try & go back part-time with Aiden starting...

The biggest achievement for ME is when I lost 150 lbs from age 15-16.

I'll live to 101, apparently. Yay?

I haven't met anyone at Cathe's gym, but I did take a step class with her the year before last :eek: It was so much fun and I had the awesome opportunity to chat with her after class. You don't get more down to earth than Cathe :cool:

Kettlebells :eek: Ha. Those suckers are expensive in general. Not a huge priority as I can sub with dumbbells in a lot of places, but I would like a set.

As we get older, we certainly have to listen to what our bodies can reasonably do, but I absolutely believe intensity is not all about super fast & super heavy. If you can't go as heavy as you used to, fatigue yourself through all the different types of lifting (ie supersets, drop sets...

Totally agree. I hope the three of them get a one way ticket very shortly. I know TV can portray some of these people in a not so great light, but it's all we see. I am really loving Coleen. Amy C. cries WAY too much :rolleyes: I also am digging the mom/daughter duo much more, though I'm not...

Favorites: decline board weighted crunches/oblique twists with med ball or weight plate, weighted planks, hanging leg raises from pull-up bar, stability ball work. Oh crap. I think I just love the pain of it all. :cool:

Why feel horrible? I think that is the beauty of being able to cancel. Sometimes we need to think further about these decisions, even after purchasing. Sometimes a light goes off that didn't previously about the risks/benefits of certain workouts. I think we've all been there...you just...

Hi Lorrie! I LOVE spinning. I usually spin about twice a week. I personally wouldn't recommend doing it every day, just because of burn out & needing variety...but I would say that about any type of cardio. That being said, it is a fabulous workout that you can tailor to YOUR level with...

That's why I stick to beer

Good morning, lovelies! I have to run & take Aiden to school, but wanted to blow shmoochies to you all :D

1. Wearing flip flops while lifting is very unsafe, not to mention, STUPID. Don't ask for sympathy when a dumbbell falls on your foot. 2.Walking to your car after exiting the gym with a cigarette hanging from your mouth is just....yeahhhhh. Maybe wait until you leave the gym premises for your...
