    How low of bf is to low

    Hey Terri! Yep...I'm in the same boat. No real period for at least a year. I don't think it is because my BF is too low either. My OBGYN doesn't seem concerned even though I was ALWAYS regular before. She told me it was because I have been on BC pills for so long (and low estrogen at...

    Show us your Workout area!

    Laura -- LOVE your workout room! Is that a picture of Marilyn Monroe doing a bench press? I think I saw that one on art.com. I LOVE IT. I wanted it but ended up getting something else. You know -- I work on computers ALL day but when it comes to technology stuff...sometimes I'm an old...

    Anyone wanna share a sample of a typical days food intake?

    Well, I don't think this is what you are asking (but I was fooled by the subject). Here's what I have had so far today: Morning: Lean Body protein bar low carb chai tea Pre-Lunch (before going to the gym): 2 "Oh Yeah" protein bars Mid-Afternoon: 2 "Oh Yeah" protein bars small...

    Who would you spend a week with..

    HA...Charlotte! I would MUCH rather workout with you. I'm on a man-hating kick right now so I would probably not be nice to your hubby :-) He's one of THEM, you know. I'd like to spend the week with Jes...just because she's funny, has lots of energy, and apparently does nothing but post...

    OK, so I am amazing!!!!

    YAY Jes! You ARE amazing. I won't jog unless a crazed axe-murderer is after me -- and even then I'll complain the whole time. WAY TO GO! I'm very impressed. Brag all you want, girl. You DESERVE to toot your own horn :-) Ha...I said "toot" ;-) Shonie

    Who does something even if you don't like it?

    I do things I don't like all the time. I hate working legs and abs. But I will FORCE myself to do them because I would be sorta funny looking with a fab upper-body and terrible legs and abs. And sometimes I REALLY don't feel like working out (like yesterday) ... but I do it anyway. I just...

    Who does something even if you don't like it?

    Scrubs DVD -- the first season

    Totally not fitness-related, but had to say I purchased the Scrubs Season 1 DVD this weekend and can't tell you how happy I am with my purchase! I'm a big fan of the show but didn't catch all the episodes in season one and I'm excited about seeing them now. I watched some of the commentary...

    A weather rant

    Marla -- I had to laugh at myself after reading your post. I thought you said "CRACKPOT" in your post and thought to myself -- yep, that Marla probably is on crack :-) Except I think it's "pipe" not "pot", but maybe a pipe is too small for ya. Then I remembered you were a nurse and...

    A technical question for non-geeks...

    ICK...Dial Up! How can you stand it? :-) The reason you probably aren't being offered DSL is because you aren't close enough to a central office -- not because you're not worth the business. Is your house a newer one? If so, there may be some other "high-speed" service available for you...

    Gotta ask about cellulite

    Hey Miss Marla -- It is NOT "imagined" and I'll show anyone my dimpled ass to prove it :-) And I don't live in "The Colony" (hey...doesn't that sound like a cult or something)...I am moving to "Flower Mound". Ah...a mound of flowers...sounds relaxing. I live in Coppell now (hmmm...nothing...

    PINKY

    Yes...Pinky is moving away from Flower Mound now that I'm moving there ;-) I am SO ready for a trip to see Cathe too. Pinky...I will give you a call or an email next week to start planning. It would be fun if we could all be on the same flight out (Marla's going too, of course), but we'll...

    I just got my first PT job!!!!

    YAY Laura! I am SO incredibly proud of you. When we last talked about this, you were apprehensive but now YOU'RE DOING IT! Way to go! I just cannot tell you how great I think you are -- especially with everything else going on in your life right now. Most manager's WILL exaggerate the...

    Gotta ask about cellulite

    A large percentage of women have some amount of cellulite! I have it too. I have had it since my late teens. It drives me crazy! Maybe it's genetic ;-) (wink, wink at you Pinky) Cutting your overall bodyfat percentage helps. I have found a lotion that I like, simply because it makes...

    Genetics and buff bodies?

    Marla -- totally agree with you. It's not about what you CAN achieve as much as what you are willing to do to achieve it. Bodies are amazing things and can achieve a LOT given a lot of different factors (diet, exercise, etc). So it's not impossible based on your genetics. It may be...

    Genetics and buff bodies?

    Completely respecting your opinion too -- but disagree. If you put limits on yourself, you will never reach your true potential. Yep...Tony Robbins has gotten inside my head :-) Shonie

    Pinky! :)

    Ah yes...it must have been the Dilbert-vibe that seemed familiar :-) You know, us tech people, we can spot each other a mile away! Pinky, you DO have a beautiful family for sure. take care and have a great weekend! Oh...I'll send you an email soon about the trip (or maybe I'll call)...

    Yesterday's Oprah

    "Well, if it's working for her, why is it excessive?" EXACTLY! Working abs everyday is not excessive -- especially if there are no weights involved. And I AM a trainer and find nothing wrong with doing endurance-based strength work (if those muscles aren't sore) often. Essentially...

    Pinky! :)

    Hey...I posted a visitor message too! I'm the one that said your husband looks familiar to me. Very cool site! Shonie
