Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
dr. visit. ugh. poked and prodded. have lost a whopping 2 lbs since nov. better than nothing, I guess.
I would like to lose size though, I care very little about weight. Ideas for reducing size of thighs/hips. I am starting nightly sit-ups to deal with the belly. I need to face a pool in a month and a half and I ain't ready for that jelly.
Magnesium deficiency is also supposed to be a possible cause of migraines
Which is why I'm already on a fair amount of it, so I don't know why I was/am having the twitches.
I might have to take time off between now and getting the next nerve block. I don't think I can do five day weeks, even with some days at home. I'm in the office right now, and it's ridiculously painful. I will have to call the pain office and ask about cancellations. I can't concentrate on anything right now, least of all work.
And where did he learn that, hmm?
From the neighbor dogs when he goes to taunt them.

Sit-ups are great! Especially the bicycling ones. But they won't reduce the size of your belly, they'll just give you strong ab muscles underneath. Sorry.
Hello, Alibelle!
And congratulations, Anne! BTW, I saw your LJ post and I think that I might have beta'd that NBB story.
Everyone I'm dealing with at my place of employment is losing their fucking minds.
I am clearly not deferential enough to power. CLEARLY.

Wait, you work here?
Seriously, today has amped up the crazy-cakes to whole new levels. Instead of crazy-cakes, we're like crazy-pie-baked-in-a-cakes.
So ... a pastry form of crazy-turducken?
msbelle, IME, low-carb is the way to go. But I know low-carb isn't for everyone, so I don't want to seem like I'm "pushing" it. I can't do the really strict under-25-grams-a-day anymore, but keeping carbs to 100 grams a day or less is totally do-able for me. The belly fat, I think, comes from insulin resistance plus too much sugar. How much sugar and/or bread is too much, YMWV. For me, no bread and very little sugar. But that's enough for me to lose 3-5 pounds a week with a little exercise. The last couple weeks of March, I lost 11 pounds. Then my period happened and I fell into a bowl of corn chips and had trouble getting out again. Back on track as of today. I want to lose a hundred pounds, and I'm going to do it by November, or damn close.
Stronger ab muscles means the fat sits better -- looking rounded instead of slack.
Speaking of exercise, has anyone ever dealt with an organization called Team in Training from the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society? They help you train (and fund-raise) for a marathon or hike. Sounds useful as a commitment device, anyway.
