| I like Obama. He has been my top pick ever since I heard him on NPR's "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me!" I love that show! Obama rocked, BTW! | |||

| We got a little white kitten and my kids named it Snowball, but when the kitten developed brown and grey calico spots, my kids renamed it "Dirty Snowball."
We also had a cat that showed up on our back patio that we named Thomas P. Kitty. The "P" stands for patio. |

| Motivation | Gym Dropout | Jul 23 2007 04:16 (UTC) |
|
| I am just glad to know that someone else has fizzled on the gym visits. I was going to the gym 6 out of 7 days. Then last week, I did not even show up at the gym once. I truly do not undrstand it myself.
I hope I will gather my motivational tidbits and head for the gym tomorrow. |

| I am soooooo with you in this! I had a horrible week. I was out of town at a conference where I ate the wrong foods, plus I got no exercise either. Then when I got home, my thought process was that it is the weekend, so I would get back on track on Monday.
A lot of damage can be done in a week. My clothes are tight again and I feel like a failure. But tomorrow is a new day. Mondays are fresh starts. Good luck with your fresh start! |

| Health & Support | Anyone on Prednisone? | Jul 06 2007 22:26 (UTC) |

| Yesterday I took my last dose of prednisone for poison ivy. Yes, it does keep you from losing weight! I have never worked harder to count calories, drink water, and exercise; yet, I weigh exactly the same that I did when I started it. Maybe, in a way, maintenance IS progress! At least I did not gain any weight.
By the way, be certain that you taper off the steroid. The side effects can be brutal if you stop suddenly. |

| Weight Loss | Alli pills | Jul 05 2007 18:39 (UTC) |

| My husband (who loves a gimmick!) bought the Alli package. He is exercising and counting fat grams. Well, if he eats a meal that has a lot of fat, the results are pretty gross. He really ends up with a stomach ache.
And...interestingly enough, Alli claims that if you are doing what it takes to lose 10 pounds, Alli can help you lose 15 pounds. Well, that is not such a great loss. In other words, for every pound, he could lose an extra half of a pound--if he is eating right and exercising, too. Plus they are very expensive. |
