    Eat To Live

    How do you manage the 3 meal a day suggestion and what do you think about "toxic hunger"? I can understand that sometimes we just crave food and that you can train your body to be hungry 3x or 8x (!) a day. I have been eating small amounts several times a day for years and cannot get myself to a...

    Seat up or down?

    It doesn't matter to me (at home!), but my dh and ds always put it down. What really gets me is public restrooms in general. THERE IS NO ETIQUETTE ANYMORE! I mean think back to when you were a kid...I don't remember experiencing this disgust then. It is a complete onslought to your senses now. I...

    The sagging belly conundrum

    That's amazing Cheryl. :D Marnie I once read something similar in an issue of Oxygen. It was higher than 10% though - maybe 14 or 13. Marnie

    Eating Clean vs. Working Out

    Everybody is different, but for me it is 100% food. I have had times in my life when I exercised 2x a day and times when I completely fall off the wagon. My weight and my size stayed about the same. Now the shape of my muscles is definitely better when working out;-) I get flabby if I stay away...

    "duh" moments...fess up!

    RE: Here's a good one my dad did many years ago. Went out and started the car to let it warm up and defrost the ice on the winshield. It was taking a long time, so he decided to go back inside for another quick cup of coffee. But first he locked the car. Yep, with it running and the keys in the...

    "duh" moments...fess up!

    RE: Unfortunately I have soo many to choose fromx( I have also done the black/blue shoe thing. Here's one similar to Kathryn's. I was outside hanging up a load of laundry when I heard this high whistle sound. I wondered what bird would make that noise and what was wrong with it (I live in a...

    Off topic - Veterinarians- I have a question

    Hi, I live in a small town and my vet charges quite a bit for flea meds. My mil has ordered from 1800petmeds for awhile. While I was searching out the site, I came across another site called Petshed. The prices were quite good and the site "looked" legit, so I ordered some frontline. I...

    Birth Control Advice/ques.

    I also recommend the book "Taking Charge of Your Fertility" even if you do not want to use it for birth control. I learned more about my body from that book than anywhere else. The birth control in this book is different than those used in the past. My sil was on b/c pills for MANY years...

    Do you tip or not?

    The owner does my hair and I do not tip him. It is expensive enough already!! If I had to tip him, I would have to go back to coloring my hair at home. My kids, however, see a different guy and I do tip him as well as tipping the girl that waxes my dd's eyebrows. I am not so sure about the...

    Birth Control Advice/ques.

    why take a chance?. If you want children, why take that chance? My preferred method has always been the diaphragm. Used it for probably 20+ years. A friend had a b/c shot (not sure what kind) and was not able to have a second child. Marnie

    "24" - now THAT'S a really bad day!

    RE: I wasn't too thrilled with last weeks episode. Jack seems too smart to do something like that. And then he didn't even call CTU before trying to get out so that they would have the information. And he just tried to walk out the door???? I figured he had some wild plan about how he was...

    Would you be upset?

    I was stating a belief that I hold, that pornography is degrading to women, that it portrays women as objects for sexual gratification, that it does not portray loving relationships or indicate the dangers of promiscuity. There's plenty of evidence to suggest that porn has a devastating impact...

    Would you be upset?

    I'm sorry to disagree with some of the posters, but to me porn is a serious evil in our culture today. It negatively affects the user, their s.o. and I cannot feel that the women (or men) participating in the movie or whatever are in a good place in their lives. Many are addicted to drugs or...

    When it rains, it pours!

    I can understand your feelings! Last year on my 40th birthday I had to take my nearly 18 y/o little dog and have him put down. Terrible way to spend a birthday. I also can understand you being pissed that no one here or at vf noticed your birthday! A couple of years ago I was involved in a...

    I just don't get why all this produce is infected. Aren't Ecoli and Salmonella associated with animal foods? Ugh.

    Need 2b Bootylicious..help

    I think the ballet inspired w/o are good at lifting and rounding. W/o like callanetics, Lotte Berk, isculpt ballet at itrain. Some people have luck including a lot of high step work, but for others they gain too much mass doing them. Good luck, I'm sure some others will have input! Marnie
