    Another fashion question??

    Yes - wear hose because you are a speaker. I would not suggest black hose, however, unless it is an evening function (I am assuming your symposium is during business hours). We're not far enough into cold weather to wear black during the day (at least in DC). A sheer nude would be your best...

    Starvation & metabolism--how does it work?

    Hey Lauramax, When the body goes into 'starvation mode' from not eating, it coverts whatever caloried it gets (Pepsi!) into fat and stores it. Also, when you're obese, the metabolism really slows (as it does after the age of 35, too). Finally, speaking as someone who has/had obese family...

    early morning to late afternoon

    I'm a nooner! :o I just can't start bouncing early in the morning - I get a terrible headache if I do. My afternoon workouts are much better! I thought it would be easy to just 'skip it', but it's pretty easy once you make it a habit. Let us know what you decided and how it's working!! Liz

    My grandma died last night!

    I'm so sorry!! Is her husband also your grandfather? If not, he sure may feel lonely. Just keep in touch with him - help him grieve, but remember to grieve yourself. It's the hardest part of the healing process, I think. Remind yourself of how very much your grandmother loved you (and you...

    September 11 - Remembered! What were you doing?

    Hey, Jean! I was at a store buying Christmas gifts for my kids and I overheard someone on their cell phone: "What?! A plan hit one of the Towers?!" I left and went to work - we put on the news and watched in horror as the Pentagon was hit. I could see the smoke from my office window...

    Oh, my arms, my arms! YAY!

    Hi Leslie, Sorry for the delay in responding - I don't usually get to post on weekends. I've been doing PUB and Pure Strength combined with running or step for cardio. I've seen some real strength gains (particularly noticeable while moving furniture over the weekend!). Hope it helps! Liz

    Oh, my arms, my arms! YAY!

    I am SO happy today! A few months ago, I looked in the mirror and saw little dimples on my upper arms. GADS! I was starting to look like an out of shape old lady!! I couldn't believe my arms were starting to look like that - I had been a fit person for a really long time (met Susan Harris...

    I'm disappointed

    Hi Janie! I'm sorry I didn't respond - I'm new to the forum and I'm trying to find my way, too. Sometimes it seems as though there are a lot of people who know each other really well, and I feel sort of like the new kid at school... Anyway - you seem to have a lovely personality and a...

    Okay, I was excited thinking I'd finally learn what DOMS stands for!! People use it all the time, and I get the gist of it, but what does it stand for??!!??!?!! It's probably obvious, but I'm a trifle slow... Liz

    Please sign this petition...

    Any way to sign without seeing the photo? Thanks for the warning - I am a very visual person and seeing something disturbing is very difficult for me. I can't even read the comments because I'm afraid I'll read something that would cause me to create a vision in my head (I'm an artist and this...

    Is there a certain word you can't pronounce?

    How to get DH to understand/accept?

    Mo, you've gotten really great feedback here. My husband works like a dog, but is SO unfit (he even smokes!). It hurts me so much because I love him and want him around for as long as possible! He is EXTREMELY supportive of me, partly because I don't make comments about what he's doing or not...

    What do you all tell yourselves...

    I'll have to get some of those 100 calorie packs - thanks for reminding me of them! They seem to do the trick - but dang that monthly! I hate it - I feel hungry all the time and just want carbs, carbs, carbs! I have it for about 3 days and I feel like I completely un-do all my hard work...
