    WHAT Am I Going To Do?!?

Within about 15-20 mns the spinning and nausea stop. I...

    WHAT Am I Going To Do?!?

    I have veritgo, its horrible. When it flares up it makes me deathly ill so I know what you're feeling. I cannot take the prescribed meds for Vertigo, it knocks me out cold. I do keep dramine on hand at all times, in my purse, in my bedside table and in my horse trailer/camper. Dramaine is a...

    What is real "starvation mode"?

    I agree about the 6 meals a day thing....and I don't believe breakfast is a MUST. Since I quit "forcing" myself to eat when I'm not hungry (got past that 5-6 meals a day thing and I eat breakfast when I get hungry) I feel so much better. I have digestive disorders and eating several times a...

    Travel Fit Update and Pics

    I"m really looking forward to this one as I will be traveling a lot for work in the next few months. The hotels my employer pays for usually have only a treadmill (2 if I"m lucky) and it seems like someone is always one it!

    Ugh! why do in-laws have to be so difficult?

    hummm, why can't the sister live with her mother? I have no answers but keep your chin up. Marriage is a challenge and in-laws can make things even worse if you let it. What's your husband say about the situation?

    Amy Bento

    This is exactly how I feel! After Amy, I rarely reach for Cathe cardio...(still prefer Cathe for wts though) Amy has the best music too IMO. I have to have good music for cardio! I couldn't care less about her form (or lack of) , I"m intelligent enough to know proper form on any type of...

    Need feedback please re: weight loss class

    ITA with this, I think for so many people struggling with weight(myself included) we don't hear about the setbacks and sometimes think "we" must be failures because those that have succeded must not have had set backs (we certainly don't read about setbacks very often) I love reading success...

    The Truth About Cardio

    Cynthia, I read that article when it was posted on FA and really enjoyed what he had to say. I like the fact that he didn't bash SS cardio, I need SS cardio along with intervals. SS keeps me sane and keeps my joints from feeling like they're being overused from intervals and HIIT. I visit...

    Unsupportive friends/family??

    Why not just be honest and tell them how their comments make you feel? I see these kinds of posts on so many fitness boards and while I sympathize, I just don't get why people don't speak up? Why is it OK for friends/family to make comments we don't like, but its not OK to respond with honesty...

    unmotivated

    I'm feeling exactly the same way. I'm on the last 2 weeks of STS and although I love this program I'm sick to death of working out, this feeling has NOTHING to do with STS. Sometimes work, LIFE, and day to day chores just gets to me and I feel smothered with all the things I have to do. I...
