    Anyone else concerned w/wacky winter weather?

    I live in PA and we have had such mild weather....in the high 60's some days. I do not like it cold, but the snow is what keeps us out of drought (is that spelled right) mode in the spring. All of this rain is great, but in a few days, the water table goes down and we need more rain. If we...

    Your best advice in 20 minutes

    A good topic might be that a little prevention is the best medicine. Keeping yourself in shape now will benefit you 10 fold when you get older. I am 37...certainly not old....but I have started to look at working out differently. It is not just about looking good in my clothes but also about...

    Topamax for migraines

    Have you ever had your thyroid checked? If your thyroid is off, it could be a reason why you are getting migraines. My cousin always had horrible migraines. She had her thyroid checked (problems run in the family) and hers was off the chart bad. Your levels should be around 3.0, but each...

    Match.Com. - Your Experience or Your ViewPoint

    I have a family across the street from me who met on one of those "internet match services". I say family because they just had their first baby 6 months ago. It is hard to find a mate in the world today. Where do you go...the gym, the bars, the mall? You of course have to watch out for the...

    Boy, it's been a long time since I've posted....anyway. My question is has anyone out there ever used Natural Progesterone Cream (NPC)?

    Anyone know about Hype Glycemia??

    I am hypoglycemic. I have been for 25 years. I am not a severe case. My dad also has it. Now he is really bad with it. His is actually turning into diabeties, which can sometimes happen in very severe cases, such as his. I just have to make sure I don't skip any meals and watch my sugar...

    Weight Loss During Pregnancy

    Hi Lisa. I only lost weight in my last months of pregnancy. I know a woman who is so sick during pregnancies that she weighs less after she delivers that before she got pregnant. The baby will get what it needs, you will suffer if you are not eating right...but it sounds like you are doing...

    Headaches from...

    I am not a migraine sufferer, but I have alot of friends who are and I really, really feel for you. This may have nothing to do with it, but I know my mom has problems when she has a pinched nerve in her neck. She has to go the chiropractor and get an adjustment and then she is better. She...

    Problem - Need Help! (Long)

    Hi Robin. I have also heard of a new way to "tan". Apparently a salon or the like will apply self tanning stuff to give the illusion of an appearance. Like they can make a woman look like she has clevage in a plunging neckline dress. They can make a woman look like she has great toned arms...

    Diet for distance running?

    Everything posted was good advice, but maybe you are doing too much too soon. Your body might be telling you that you are pushing too hard. I have read that if you are feeling this way, that you should decrease your mileage and see if you feel better. I was trainning for a 15K a while back...

    My God Cathe is so tiny!!!!

    I understand what you are saying. I am smaller than some of my friends and they always make comments like you are so tiny or a good wind would blow you over. I am 5/6 and weigh 130#, so tiny is not the word for me. I am height and weight proportionate. I finally told them that I have worked...

    To Pfive and naughtoj about running

    RE: To Pfive and naughtoj about running....very long Hi Angie. IMHO, I think that only running 6 miles on your long run and trying to run a 1/2 in 8 weeks may seem like a big task. You might be a better runner than me and be able to do this. I could not without hurting myself/totally wearing...

    To Pfive and naughtoj about running

    Hi all. I wanted to add my 2 cents here. I am a runner and I lift weights also with Cathe. My schedule is something like this....(I don't do lower body with weights anymore. It didn't feel right with the running. I also do upper body more than lower body because I was blessed with great...

    I want a healthy hubby!

    Hi Nancy. I too share in your frustration. My husband's diet consists of pizza, mountain dew and pop corn. Never eats fruit or vegetables. Never drinks milk...unless it is with some very unhealthy, sugary cereal. He doesn't drink, though...that is a good thing. He does exercise. He is...
