    Summertime Pretty!

    Sparrow, I love your garden, it is so beautiful!! Is it difficult to raise chickens? Once I buy a place I would like to start a garden and possibly raise chickens. Kirsten

    Help!! Cooking bread for the first time...

    I think I'll use hot tap water next time. I heated the water and then used the thermometer until it was 128 F (the back of the packet said between 120-130, but that may have been too hot). Thanks for the feedback!

    Help!! Cooking bread for the first time...

    I am trying Tosca Reno's recipe, but she isn't very clear. Am I supposed to either mix the yeast in warm water, or mix the yeast with dry ingredients and then pour in warm water and oil??? It says that I need to combine the ingredients (water, honey, canola oil, sea salt, ascorbic acid...

    Confused

    Thank you!! I saw the target weight, but because it matched the weight I used to test my 1RM I thought that's what it was referring to :)

    How do you find the URL for a photo?

    I swear, I can't keep up with everything there is to know with computers! I'm feeling more and more computer "dumb" as the years go on - :p

    Confused

    I am getting ready to order STS (yeah!, finally!) so I entered an exercise in the 1RM list, and then went to see what it looked like on the workout card. I entered in 10lbs for 12 reps and it said my 1RM is 16, average 15lbs. On the workout card it lists 16 then in the column under % of...

    Interesting but good side-affect from Clean Eating

    I have been eating clean for about 3 months, on average, 90-95% of the time. However, whenever I deviate the 5-10% of time, I either get sick to my stomach or start feeling really weird or both. My tolerance for chemicals and unhealthy ingredients has dwindled to nothing - well, at least I'll...

    Workout Manager Suggestion

    Hi SNM, I was wondering if it would be possible to create something that would allow us to plug in current dvd's and have the workout manager create a rotation based on those dvd's, and suggest other dvd's to add to ones collection for a more well-rounded rotation. Thanks for all you do! Kirsten

    Should I be committed?

    No! I usually have a frying pan in my hand, in my daydream! And no, it isn't just you, it seems the general masses are beyond ignorant and they don't care, or are proud of it. Some seem, to wear their ignorance as a badge.

    Your Favorite Nutrition Program?

    The only thing I would say about Herbalife, is don't use it if you are hypoglycemic. I tried it a few years ago, and about 2-3 days into it I woke up in the middle of night shaking, dizzy, the whole gammut. Of course, I had no sugar in the house to get my blood sugar up immediately, so had to...

    Advice/thoughts on my rotation and measurements

    Thanks Rapid Breath! I realized that when I read your post, you are so right about not doing interval workouts more than twice a week, I have been having to take Friday's off because my legs are so exhausted. Today, I just did Gym Styles biceps, shoulders, and back and went for a half hour...

    Advice/thoughts on my rotation and measurements

    Thank you! For some reason I was thinking I didn't need to worry about my legs since I am doing cardio - but I guess it really isn't the same thing. I don't have the Gym Styles legs, but I do have the 4DS with the heavy legs that I can do until I can afford to get more DVD's.

    Advice/thoughts on my rotation and measurements

    Thanks Vrinda! That's a really good point Sheila. Maybe I should alternate my M,W,F cardio weeks also - I'm a little low on dvd's at the moment, and it didn't help that I left my favorite disk from 4DS, the one with the low impact, in a dvd player I no longer have! Anyway, I think I will do...

    Advice/thoughts on my rotation and measurements

    Thanks Tricia. After I posted, I wondered about if I had measured in the same spot. Though, short of tatooing a line on my arm, I may just have to be as "close" as possible. I will try to remember to do at the widest point next month.

    Advice/thoughts on my rotation and measurements

    I need some advice on my current rotation that I am starting for the month of July. I still need to lose 93 lbs - and have lost 31.6 lbs to date with clean-eating and Cathe's workouts. :D This is what I have been thinking of doing, but wanted to make sure that it is in line with my goals of...
