| The Lounge | What is your degree in, and what do you do for a living? | Nov 19 2007 19:16 (UTC) |

| &nb sp; I havent gone to college I joined the military. I'm out now but basically how that goes is We are the unwilling lead by the unkowing and we have been doing so much with so little for so long that we are now qualifed to do anything with nothing. I have worked on a farm at mcdonalds on vehicles I was a medic (Which was my actual job title. and a big rig driver for the military.
Helped build small builings I have helped train dogs and break horses. Hated beng a secretary and I hated being a waitress. I still work with an old lady helping her get ready for her day in the morning like give her a shower and breakfast as a second job. and a whole slew of other things. &nb sp; Currently I work in a mental health facility helping people become independet in the community who have disabilities. The person i work with even just got his own apartment and he has cerebral palsy. &nb sp; So basically yes an education in college is very good but you dont have to have one to find something that you love to do. |

| The Lounge | Farm Bill Dies | Nov 19 2007 19:07 (UTC) |
|
| &nb sp; What they really need is a farm bill that will help out the small farmers. My uncle has about 60 head of dairy cattle. And trust me he isnt rolling in the dough. actually he is struggling quite hard to keep the farm floating. If say we had a really bad corn crop this year or haying season he would be out of business. all of his corn and 90% of his hay go to just feed his cattle not to make money. | |||

| &nb sp; I am just voting on the fact that an 82% cocoa chcolate bar isnt a bad decision unless you are panning on being a health nut. hich isnt a bad thing but I know me personally I am loosing weight an always have a sliver of pie or a bit of chocolate or something included into my everyday meal.
&nb sp; Also the same as for gaining weight I imagine it isnt good to say I can never eat chocolate agian and then come to find after a week that is the nly thing you want and binge on it. better to involve the good stuff as well into your life. |

| &nb sp; Im not going to be **** calories this thanksgiving. I will however ask myself if I really need a second serving of pie or more then a little bit of the taters that have been drowned in butter. Just take small portions of the things you want like maybe a 1/4 cup serving of the taters and a small slice of the pie. | |||

| &nb sp; I just wish my mom had worrie about me when I was eating 600 cals a day for three months and running at least 3 miles a day. I didnt know any better. and I was overweight and really really wanted to get into the military. Now that I know better I eat healthier actually have over ate the last couple weeks around 2500 cals a day with minimum exercise and I should be eating like 1300-1500. feel happy your mom knows enough to be worried | |||

| Fitness | Winter and how can I get used to the cold? | Nov 12 2007 16:58 (UTC) |

| &nb sp; I live in vermont Very soon it will be in the negative temps. I have to get a gym membership. Becuase once it gets that cold out I will risk getting frostbite if I am outside for more then 5-10 mins. Right now 30 degrees is alright but even if it gets below 20 I caution going outside for long periods of time.
&nb sp; If you do always wear a si mask or scarf over your nose and mouth. Feels like you are being suffocated but you can hurt your lungs by running and taking long chilly breaths an giving your body no time to warm it up before it hits your lungs. plus make sure there isnt any exposed skin. and I would really reccomend a gym pass if you live in an area that gets below 20 degrees. &nb sp; For those of you in ares like san antonio you dont however need a gym pass you can run outside all year around I was stationed there in th military. |

| artificial sweeteners from what I do know are outrageously much sweeter then sugar. I would suggest go for a teaspoon of sugar instead of 15 packets of splenda. it has to be healthier to eat the sugar then that much splenda. | |||

| &nb sp; Some bodies types just arent meant to be slim. I will never be the skinny girl and I dont want to either I personally like my butt and hoohaas. But you may look skinnier then you think you do. I have a pair of pants that I bought right after I got out of basic that fit me agian same as the did when I first bought them.
&nb sp; I felt slim when I got out of basic and I know I looked it. But right now even with those jeans I still feel very chunky and like I look heavy. |

| Weight Loss | What are your "realistic" holiday goals? | Nov 12 2007 12:37 (UTC) |

| &nb sp; mmm I eat a baked potatoe white ones a lot. They are healthy for you and have different essential vitamins and minerals then sweet potatoes. I usually put just a bit of butter in the mddle with garli and onion poweder and some salt. absolutely scrumptious.
&nb sp; Dont worry about gaining. I went crazy with my diet for the past couple of weeks went completely off then splurged in the alcohol and sweet treat sections. Hoped on the scale and am only one pound over my last weight and that could be water retention. |
