What's Canada's health care like? Can you just get your bits removed?Quote:

Since I've been sick a lot (non stop coughing) my abs have been forming. But it hurts so badly.
So I guess my new goal now is to try to feel better rather than look better. That'll come aafter

Not sick anymore ! Yay!
But I did get thin from all the soup I've been having. Hubby said my butt doesn't feel big anymore and my love handles shrunk so much I could feel my hipbone. 0-0
@coradion I'll keep the salt pool in mind the next time I get sick. I just wish I knew where thy would be in Toronto
Barium salt is an alternative to Chlorine. A lot of pools use it now, just call around.Quote:

Another thing that works wonders is rubbing castor oil across your abdomen and putting a heating pad on top. I swear, castor oil is anesthetic in disguise, lol. Also works great on sore muscles, for when you overdo your workouts.Quote:

I gained no weight, because I actually ended up eating less than usual, due to family taking over the house and cooking food I can't bear to eat. I may have lost weight, but I'm having trouble telling because I am so stressed I'm having trouble um... "eliminating" fully.
Anyways, I found out that if I hardcore workout to songs, some of those songs will forever be "workout" songs in my head: Hearing one of these songs last night sent me into an impromptu exercise routine! It felt amazing having instant motivation like that, and to one of my favorite songs!
that happens to me too! i hear a song i always dance/ work out to and then boom on the spot dance/ work out routine. in public.
Weighed myself today at the store I lost 10 more pounds and this afternoon my doctor was proud at ow healthy my body was looking. Blood sugar, glucose levela, etc.
I'm so mad at myself. Went to my parents' place to stay for the holidays and there's so much food and it's too cold to be as active as I usually am. I think I've gained weight and it's pissing me off. I need to run.
Believe it or not simple mermaid stretches can burn a lot of calories and can be done indoors :) Stay positive you can make up for it.Quote:

Food is nice, but I like a nice body more.Quote:
