Re: HEALTHY LIVING

Phinnesota,
I LOVE pancakes, they are my favorite food, but they are usually made with white flour and too much refined sugar and leave me feeling light headed and sick to my stomach. I have made up my own recipe that's made of complex carbohydrates.

Whole wheat pancake mix, (Baker Mills' Kodiak ...

Re: HEALTHY LIVING

Hi everyone!
We're all doing great!
Awesome job, Jack! You're almost at a month!
Sal, sorry to hear about your doctor experience. Some people just don't get it, and he's one of them.

I made it to the rec today and did awesomely!
Unfortunately, I made the mistake of having pancakes for breakfast ...

Re: HEALTHY LIVING

Wow, AWESOME JOB EVERYBODY!!!

It's been a crazy week around here... I published my first issue as Editor-in-Chief of the school newspaper, and most of my time has been clubs/work/meetings/classes.
Of course, all of these things have given me excuse after excuse not to go to the rec. :-? :roll ...

Re: How's The Economy Affecting Your 2009 Vacation?

I definitely won't travel much this year...
I'll be lobbying in D.C. for the first half of Spring Break (not costing me a dime)
The second half, I'll take the bus to Chicago to visit home (yay for megabus and $11 roundtrip!)
I also hope to make it home once during the summer.
Other than that, maybe ...

Re: HEALTHY LIVING

Well weight lifting class was kind of a bummer today... we got the syllabus and were dismissed :-?
So I went back to the rec later and got in a half hour of movement (20 minutes on elliptical, a few minutes on the rowing machine, and a few walk/run laps around the track).
And I actually RAN an ...

Re: HEALTHY LIVING

Today was a rest day for me.
However, I made a big step in my healthy living experience... I mailed in my registration for the Perham Turtlefest 10K on June 20! It was 12 bucks, so now I am financially committed :D
I also drank at least half a gallon of water today (and therefore made frequent ...

Re: HEALTHY LIVING

When it's too cold for a walk or a snowshoe, I put on a dance mix and just GO!!!!!!! Songs with slower bpm's to warm up and cool down . . . iTunes will even shuffle for you based on that.
I *love* snowshoeing!!! In fact, I wish I had some here at home, or I'd be out there right now.

You can go ...

Re: just when you thought you've heard it all...

Here's a money-making idea:
Get ordained online and advertise in the paper that you'll do weddings at the local fast-food establishment, big box store or car wash of your choice!
I could just see the car wash advertisement: "Get married while you wait!"
