Topic: RE: Nausea after working out?
truly, i do know i need to drink more water, but in all honesty i don't drink much of anything, i think throughout the whole day i drink maybe 16oz of water, 8oz skim milk, a cup of coffee and maybe half a glass of crystal lite.  it's something i've always had a problem with and i've been really trying lately to get more liquid in, but it's still really really hard for me!!

There was a girl who used to post here, Andrea (Dr, Andy), and she went through that program.  Her results were AMAZING.

Topic: RE: Six Exercise Myths
Sky, I think the reason we keep hearing them is because it sounds good in an infomercial!  "Get Ripped in Six Weeks".  Ummm, yeah, if you start out with only ten pounds of junk in ya trunk!  When I weighed 320 pounds, I would have had to walk around the world twice a day, everyday for six weeks and instead of being ripped, I'd just be tired...and pissed cuz I wasn't ripped!

And another thing that ticks me off.  I'm an apple and no matter how ripped my six pack is, the fat over it still looks like a keg.  Well, maybe not that drastic, but I don't see any definition in my belly in my future.  *sigh*

OK, you two, now ya made me have to come up in here and FUSS!  Why are you whining like GirlieMen about drinking such a small amount of water when you should be drinking this and more all through the day, but especially if you are working out?  AB, there is a reason your trainer said you were dehydrated...ya ain't drinkin ya water, Toots!!!  LMAO

But seriously, the body needs to repleni****'s water stores and if it thinks it's not getting enough then it will hold on to tha****er and then you'll be gaining water weight.  To get rid of bloat, you have to drink water.

Now drink up you two and don't make me have to come back in here!!!  ;-)

Molly, that's a great list - where did you find it? So many myths and yet we keep hearing and reading them everywhere.

Topic: RE: Question..
Are your feet swelling?

I used to find that my feet and hands would swell with exercise and even just slow walking when it was hot and humid outside - I hated how it felt. I haven't had it in a long time because I'm very careful to limit my sodium intake and probably because of my weight loss. It's related to poor circulation - the blood was pooling in my feet and hands. They would feel uncomfortable and even numb. After resting for awhile it would go away. Could this be your problem?

Thanks to all of you for your help.

You are ALL right. I've thought about your responses and some responses I got on the other board and I really need to stop looking for an "easy fix" for my mistakes.

I'm going to have to learn how to make healthy choices all the time and for it to become second nature. I know that by eating certain foods I make myself sick, yet, I've gone back to those foods over and over again. I need to really change how I look at food.

Maybe taking some time for me isn't so bad. It seems I find every excuse in the book why I'm NOT worth the time and energy. I know that a lot of my "laziness" is due to emotional issues that I have and not necessarily because of time constraints. To be honest, I have the time to prepare meals and to plan things out, but I always find an excuse. It's time for me to wake up and realize that I am worth it.

Thanks again!!
