I was wondering how long it would take before you laid this nightmare on Obama. Not long. The U.S. Coast Guard was on site within hours. Yeah right, slow response. Under your theory President Obama is responsible for everything that goes wrong in this country. Ok. Then you'll agree that...

What makes me insanely angry is that BP and other oil companies drill in deep water and evidently have no regard for safety measures and no idea how to fix a leaking well. This type of drilling should be banned until stricter safety guidelines are put in place and enforced.

What a testament to positive thinking you are. Wow!!! You are amazing.

I'm reading Intuitive Eating right now and it is eye-opening. I'm not an emotional eater but a chronic dieter and I'm looking to get out of that cycle. They do discuss emotional eating as well. Well worth the read.

OMG, that sounds wonderful. Big fan of sweet and salty combo here. I'll have to try it.

We read "The Help" in my book group and it was loved by all. I also really loved "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo"

A few years ago I purchased the Fitday software that you just download. It's pretty easy. They have a free online version but I preferred the software because you can enter recipes and it calculates the calories per serving. I haven't used it in awhile as a prefer Dailyplate because it syncs...

Thanks, Debbie. I think you are right. I did a very light pilates workout and then took a walk and my back is actually feeling pretty good right now. Maybe I'll try some upper body tomorrow and walk again.

Thanks, Julie. I'll check it out.

I've been nursing a sore lower back for about 10 days. I haven't really worked out at all except for walking. I'd really like to work out today, maybe some weights. My back still hurts a bit. Any workout suggestions that won't aggrevate my lower back?

I'm really liking the Jergen's natural glow mousse. It goes on easy and dries superquick. I am very light skinned so I use the one for fair skin. So far no blotchiness.

I have the Mirena and I have not really had a period since I got it. No side effects that I can tell. I had to go off the pill because I had blood clotting issues and my Doc. recommended the Mirena. About 8 months have passed and I'm liking the no period thing. I do, however, still get PMS.

Another vote for almond milk. The sweetened vanilla is really yummy for the sake of saving a few cals. I usually drink the unsweetened variety.

I count calories, otherwise, I tend to overeat. I'm a pretty healthy eater but I can overdo it portionwise so counting keeps me on track. I'm fairly used to it now and I feel more in control when I know how many calories I take in. That being said, usually once a week I'll go out to eat and...

I couldn't agree more with the OP. I started training for a 5K about 10 weeks ago. Could barely run a mile without stopping. Fast forward to yesterday, I ran a 4 mile race in 39 minutes without stopping or slowing down once. I never would have believed it possible but now that I have...

Blueberry vinegrette sounds wonderful. How do you make it?

Thanks. Great idea. I love beans. In fact, in the wintertiime I usually make a big pot of bean soup and freeze it in individual containers to grab to take to work. I like to idea of some canned and some fresh food. Makes it more manageable. I'll give it a try this week.

I love salads when someone else makes them. I don't enjoy all that chopping and prep. Any tips for making salads less labor intensive? I really want to take salads for lunch at work but can't take the time to prepare them.

I have used the Itreadmill. I like it alot but I haven't figured out everything it does yet. I know you can count steps if that's what your looking for. I use it to calculate how far I run and that works well. Tips, turn of the sounds if you don't want it beeping at you and use the lock...

Another vote for the Slimfast bars as the culprit. I can't eat any of those meal replacement bars or I'll pay the price. Are you feeling gassy at all? If so, cut them out and see how you do. Believe me when I eat bars in the morning I look about 6 months pregnant by the afternoon.
