    Sorry if this is a strange topic...

    I drink a lot of water during the day so I do use the bathroom quite a bit. For me, I have to stop drinking fluids a couple of hours before I go to bed or I will be up all night going. As far as exercise causing it, that just doesn't sound possible.

    Anyone's back ever seize up during a workout?

    This just happened to me almost 2 weeks ago. All I did was stand up from my bench after doing the first set of rear delt raises in PUB and bam - out she went. I know - it stinks and hurts like heck. Take the time you need for it to heal or you will just make it worse. I hope you feel better!

    Do You Think Carrie Bradshaw Would Be Caught Dead in the Sketcher's Shape-Ups?

    No, IMO, they are NOT Carrie Bradshaw fabulous. Carrie subscribes to only the highest of fashions. If she was seen sporting a pair of tennis shoes while running in one episode I have to believe it was just the dream of one of the writer's making her a little more "real." But she is Carrie...

    Parenting: Typical mistake, predictable outcome

    Don't worry about it Deanie. I just wanted to clarify. I think the OP just couldn't help herself when she came across her 8 y/o's diary and read it. But after she had, she was worried about what she read. She can't go back, she did what she did and now is asking for opinions as to where...

    Parenting: Typical mistake, predictable outcome

    Deanie, I never lied to my daughter. I told her everytime I read her stuff. And I do advocate snooping if you think your child might be making poor decisions and you need to know. And I would snoop until I felt they were okay. I do not advocate snooping if you believe your child is doing...

    Ideas for homemade white pizza

    A couple of weeks ago I was at a gathering where the hostess made white pizza. It was delicious. She said she used the store brand crust and there wasn't much to it but some broccoli, ricotta and mozarella. So I gave it a go last night. I combined olive oil, garlic, basil and oregano and...

    I am definitely getting old. Seeing a naked man, no matter how good looking he is, just doesn't excite me. Now that ladies, I admit myself, is pathetic!

    Parenting: Typical mistake, predictable outcome

    Let me clarify my post. I agree with you Tete - we are all entitled to our privacy, our children included. I knew my daughter wrote stuff down but never read it until I saw some alarming behavior so when I snooped I did find out there was some drinking and some drugs involved. So because of...

    I had mentioned in an early post that my friend had the same opinion as ImFiddy. She had just recently saw a documentary about New Orleans and the amount of devastation that still exists there. I would think that nobody would have a problem with our troops and money going to help dig this...

    Buffy - I wasn't talking about you but there is a post on this thread that is a personal attack. In the past, once a personal attack is made, it starts to fester with all sorts of nastiness between posters and I just don't want to see this thread go that route. I would like to be able to...

    Ladies, can't we state our personal opinions without personally attacking each other? We are all individual people with different lives , backgrounds, and upbringings, etc. that help to develop our opinions. The average age on this board is 40 something, isn't it? We all should be able to...

    Parenting: Typical mistake, predictable outcome

    Okay - I am going to give you a completely opposite answer than what has been given to you already. NO NO NO NO NO - do NOT tell her you read her diary unless the things that are disturbing you are too big to ignore. I would encourage you to talk to her teacher and see how she is doing in...

    We were promised we could watch it all on C-Span, weren't we? What happened to that? I guess they don't want us to see the back door deals. My best friend brought up this very same point today. Don't get me wrong. I voted for Obama because I like so many wanted change. But again, I am like...

    when healthy became unhealthy

    Kariev - I think you said the words that so many of us could have. I am weary from the ups and downs of weight loss as well. I have a 10-12 pound window that I go back and forth between and I am so tired of it. My back went out last Monday while doing PUB. It was during the first exercise...

    Help with public speaking

    I am very comfortable speaking in front of a crowd and have done quite a bit of singing in front of large audiences and one thing that I have passed on to others is this analogy: You are walking along in a crowd and you stumble a bit. When that happens, most of us are embarassed and we think...

    Something I have been hearing on both MSNBC and Fox News and I agree with it, is that what happened last night isn't necessarily a "party" thing. That many Americans are upset with both parties and what is happening in Washington and that's why an "independent" on the Republican ticket won.

    Cardio Core Circuit - MERCY!! UNCLE!!!

    I agree with Nan. Athletic Step is quite a bit easier the CCC. I have to raise my step and jump higher to keep my heart in the zone I want it. CCC - now that on the other hand - great cardio blasts and high impact (but I love that). Some of the core stuff though is a little awkward for me...

    It is getting towards my next CT Scan

    Amy - try and stay positive. I know it's hard but do the best you can. Like RunninTeach's friend, my sister has had a nodule on her lungs for quite a few years now and has to get continual scans but it has not grown at all. Positive vibes coming your way! Let us know!
