    headphones

    I purchased Sony earphones that wrap around the ears. They are awesome and never, never fall out. I hated the ones that came with my ipod because I would have to put them back in ever couple of minutes.

    Damages fans..........WTH????????

    Bummer! I rarely watch lawyer shows because my husband and I (both lawyers) always point out the flaws. Damages is an exception; it is quite clever. Also like Boston Legal which I'm now watching on Netflix. I assume Damages will be available on Netflix as well but...we'll have to wait.

    How To Stay Motivated- Get Back on Track

    When I'm having a hard time getting motivated, I shorten my workout times. Instead of working out an hour or more, I'll shorten the workouts to 45 minutes for weights and 30 minutes for cardio. It gets rid of the dread factor because its over before you know it. I'm doing that right now...

    How to Eat Intuitively?

    I couldn't agree with you more. Counting calories, points, whatever just plain sucks. It actually really stresses me out. After years of doing it, I stopped several months ago. Intuitive Eating is a good place to start. Gives a really good explanation of the reasons diets fail and why you...

    So I think I found the secret to weight loss

    It is so interesting to hear how different things work for different people. I recently went in a completely different direction from you. I was a bit tired of focusing on what I "should" be eating instead of what I "want" to eat and just wanted to get more pleasure of of eating. I read...

    Don't Know If I Can Stop Myself. I Want A Big Bag Of Chips, Pretzels, Candy and Soda

    Don't binge. Period. It's not worth it. Like some of the other ladies have said, if you want some chips and a soda, get a small bag and a soda. Enjoy them and move on. Do you really need regular chips or will baked ones do? I buy the baked bbq UTZ and seriously, to me the difference is so...

    suspicious mammogram- really scared

    I've had several suspicious mamograms. At one point my doc. would schedule me for a mamo and an ultrasound at the same time because my mamos. were hard to read. I had a needle biopsy also. Everything turned out fine. My doc. told me that it is quite common to have to follow up a mammogram...

    Tried Brazil Butt Lift "Bum Bum"

    Ouch!!! I haven't done Pyramid Lower Body in awhile. Not sure if I could handle doing H&T on top of that.

    Ok, this is the LAMEST question I've ever asked...

    I think it means "Darling Husband" or "Dear Husband". I venture to guess sometimes it might mean "Damn Husband".

    Tried Brazil Butt Lift "Bum Bum"

    I like the "Bum Bum" workout as well. Lots of fun and I definitely feel it the next day. I like Tummy Tuck also. High and Tight has a slight dread factor for me so I don't reach for it much.

    Vasectomies...

    No experience with vasectomies; my DH would not consider it. I did, however, get a IUD about 6 months ago and I love it. No periods (or hardly) and I don't have to take the pill anymore. If your hubbie is stubborn (like mine), you may want to consider an IUD as a no hassle option.

    Great book? The Secret Life of Bees

    Wonderful read. Love Secret Life of Bees. Just finished Sarah's Key which was about the French police who rounded up its Jewish population in WWII and sent them to death camps. Really good read also.

    This post is timely as someone in my office brought in some huge Zucchini and am trying to figure out how to use them. Anyone have a Zucchini bread recipe they want to share? I'm also going to try the lasagne thing. Maybe baking them a bit in the oven might dry them out enough to elminate the...

    1 Week Post Chemo trmnt 3...

    Connie, you rock!! You are an inspiration. It is so easy to make excuses not to work out but you remind me that we are lucky to be physically able to do so. Keep up the good work and good luck with your treatment.

    Disturbing Info - BP Oil Spill

    The fact that you could not name one specific thing the Obama Administration could have done but did not in reponse to the BP oil spill speaks volumes. Just throwing out baseless accusations does not make it true. President Obama did not receive BP cash as you say. Until the recent Supreme...

    South Beach, Eat Clean, The Zone, WW???

    I've tried them all and they all work (for awhile). I recently read Intiative Eating in an effort to get off the dieting treadmill and it was a real eye opener, particularly why most diets fail. I'm one of those people who lose and regain the same five pounds. Trying to get away from that...
