The tapes are really easy, just walking in place, kicks, knee lifts, and jogging moves. A 15-minute "walk" equals 1 mile. So I type for an hour or so, then do a mile, type for another hour or so, then do a mile. It actually makes me type faster.

Leslie's walking videos might be good, or just get out and walk in general. Or do TaeBo at half

44 pounds in 1 month is doable when you start out at over 400 pounds.
It still counts, though, so Martha, you are doing a wonderful job. Keep it up the diet and exercise especially. Those pounds are going to melt away! You can do it!
Leslie's WATP videos are fabulous (sm)
I use these and when I do them faithfully...WOW! What a difference in that tummy fat and overall toning is incredibly fast! Yoga is also a gentle and wonderful way to tone up, destress, and get in touch with your body/mind self. Good luck!!
10 pounds
The last 10 pounds are so hard to lose, so you'll have to really watch your diet here, incorporate some weight training, lots of water, more protein and less carbs. Do cardio first thing a.m., 30 minutes or so 3 days a week. Here is a link that has some ways to find out how much you burn, etc. http://www.nutristrategy.com/activitylist4.htm
I tried that, gained 30 pounds. Now, it's
Splenda, Splenda, Splenda. Only enjoy chocolate once a week now. Hmm, maybe that's why I get depressed? Chocolate withdrawals!
I am real too at 96 pounds. I would never let myself get that fat.

I have and think it is really cute. I just wish pounds
would melt off me like the snow melts off the little boy LOL!!!
I used to be 235.5 pounds and now weigh 115.5 (sm)
I am in the process of registering with the weight loss registry. I couldn't believe there was one! I did the yo-yo dieting forever. My recommendation to you is to scare yourself into the weight loss. Go get some labs done, etc., and find out how scary some of those numbers are. I personally had a scare, and that's what led to my weight loss. I've kept it off for a year and a half, including through a pregnancy. The weight loss registry has found that those who lose weight and kept it off have been essentially scared into it.
Good luck!
Bluefish and about 2 pounds of it. nm

Sounds like a 27 pound cat might be too big for the litter boxes with the covered housing/top. My cat just fits into this regular sized one. Suggest you either get a bigger litter box system or have one built. A 27 pound cat is a HUGE (loveable) cat who needs above-normal sized cat box.
Just my 3 cents as a CAT LOVER!!! *S*
Absolutely! I have 2 over 50 pounds...gee!

She looks really bad, IMO. She looked good about 50 pounds ago
I lost 22 pounds on it in one month!

Took it for about 4 months and lost over 40 pounds after
Phentermine is the generic, I beleive. You can order it in 3 months supply and it is cheapest. The only bad thing I have to say about it is that it WILL make you moody beyond belief!
105 pounds is definately not overweight
for someone who is 5'4". What was he smoking?
My vet told me kitty has to be over 3 pounds--sm
before it can be spade, but since most kitties don't get adopted as soon as they are 6 weeks old, I think that is just a standard on the SPCA site you visited. I waited until my little girl kittie was 6 months old before I had her spade. If the SPCA is specifying six weeks after adoption, it is probably because they are offering some kind of discount if it is done by then.
Gain 100 pounds! That's pretty sad that anyone
would want to LET themselves go like that!
I hope you're kidding, but in some ways, I do know that transcriptionists sure do gain A TON OF WEIGHT!
I too gained (30 pounds) when I quit 2 years ago. sm
What worked for me is the CORE weight watchers plan (no counting of points). It is amazing how much you can eat and feel satisfied. It is really not a diet but more a way of eating healthy. It isn't Atkins or South Beach, as you get to eat carbs such as ww pasta, potato, brown rice etc. It is very healthy and satisfying. The weight just fell off of me 2 to 3 pounds per week. I decided I couldn't see my self 'dieting' or counting points for the rest of my life, but I could live with eating healthy. This plan is the BEST I ever tried, and believe me, I tried them all. Good luck with losing the weight. It is great that you are smoke-free now.
Yes I tried Trimspa and like Anna Nicole lost 55 pounds. nm

They made him lose 20 pounds for Saturday night fever, so he's always

Yes, I lost 42 pounds on LA Weight Loss, but gained back 50 a little more than a year later . .
I was on the program for approximately four months and lost 40 pounds. The weight did come off really fast. At the time I was a member, there was a rebate if you kept the weight off for one year. It sounded good, but you had to buy the supplements for the entire year, which by the end of the year added up to a few thousand dollars.
In any case, after I finally lost the weight, I got pregnant with my fourth child. I am now trying to lose the 50 pounds that I gained while pregnant, but my metabolism seems so much slower now. The weight isn't coming off nearly as fast as before. :(
I think they will all walk
Have been thinking they are probably guilty, but really, there is no proof. I agree 100% about the chaperones. You wait until you get to the airport and then discover everyone isn't there?? Sounds absurd to me. How come we haven't seen any of the chaperones on TV? Still feel for the parents, but I think they have done all they can. They certainly have kept it in the attention of the media.
I don't think they are trying to walk all over
anyone. I think it is out of frustration. Lots of changes have came about in a very short time. Some people are not good with change. They see this attitude as rubbing salt in the wounds. They are being jerked around and you are all happy and that makes no sense to them. There are people begging for work out there and then you get on saying you got 9 accounts. In their mind, they are thinking how is this fair and of course lashing out at MQ. You do tend to lash out at people who you think hurt you. I do not agree with everything that is going on with MQ, but I do work here and I am going to continue to work here. I have sympathy for the other MTs who are not so happy. I agree there are those who get on here to do nothing, but bash, but then again there are those just trying to understand what is going on and speaking out of frustration. I just think that people should not be attacked or whatever you want to call it just because they do not share your views. You must remember, we are all in totally different situations and most importantly - we are on the same team. Why not try to help them get happy and try to work out their problem, rather than bash along with them.
How many MTs and MEs would be willing to have a walk out
If nothing is done by Oct 1st with MQ
walk, walk, walk, walk, walk. :)
I do 3 miles a day at a good clip and I have lost 25 lbs. since I started doing MT at home a year ago. I'm back into a size 6 from a 14.
No bagels, donuts, cookies candy, etc., etc. in the breakroom like it was at the office.
Keep the crap out of your fridge and cupboards too.
Leftover Halloween candy put 5 lbs. on me in one week!
Yes, that should walk you through it
I am not real familiar with Melbourne IT, but when I Google searched, it came back with registering domain names, so yes, follow that through. The next time you post, if you need more help, click on the button to add an email reply and I will email you to see if I can help walk you through it
The Walk
Cesar emphasizes taking regular walks with your dog at your side, not in front of you. Maybe it would help to do this with your dog, establishing yourself as the leader, and then take two and eventually all three for a walk at the same time. He says this gets them used to being a pack, with you as the pack leader.
It's also a law here too and a law you can't walk dog without muzzle...

Hello...that should be take a walk, not "talk"
Something must be wrong with my fingers :)
Walk in the shoes.

RUN - don't walk to the nearest ER. sm
I am an MT/ EMT/ nursing student, who has also had bouts of depression in the past, never hurting self but thinking how to permanently. I am great now, but with my family history I know what to look out for. PLEASE - Go to the nearest ER and talk to a professional about this. You cannot work through this alone or online with anyone. They will not judge you or belittle you - they are there to help and your hurting yourself is a cry for help. You don't have to tell your family or friends a reason for going, just say you don't feel well and need to go to the doctor. Don't wait, go now!
Walk your own talk, then.
Why don't YOU take in all that trash if they're all just innocent victims of "the system". It's always someone else's fault, isn't it? You liberals never hold the parasites responsible for any of their own actions or any of the CHOICES they make. It's always the government's fault, or capitalism's fault, or the fault of people with money (you know, the ones who worked hard and EARNED their lifestyle). We're all supposed to keep paying through the nose so a bunch of parasites can breed generation after generation of parasites and no one is allowed to point out the truth. Fine. YOU let them all live with you.
Let's just get out of the car and walk inside.

I wouldn't let them walk all over me like that. It was not right.
Yep, took them out for walk today sm
and they are as good as gold today. They even got cauliflower (their fav) for their treats today.
Walk. Two miles a day should do it.

You have to get up and stretch, go for a walk
and take lots of breaks from just sitting, even if they are only 5 min. breaks. It helps both mentally and physically.
Is a 15-min walk possible in your area sm
at that time of night? That would get your blood moving!
Run, don't walk to METROSCRIPT
metroscript.com - best deal in town! We've used them for 5 years. Great service, easy dial in dictation or digital file upload. Cost is minimum $14.95 month. Phone cost is $0.15 minute, fee kicks in after your doctor racks up past the $14.95 flat fee. They are a terrific company and will help you get up and running. Best of luck.
when I was 12 I had my appendix out...I could not even walk...had a fever...
was vomiting bile. The most painful memory was the doctor trying to lay me down on the table, and everytime he would try to straighten my legs out, I would sit up, when he would lay be down, my legs would go back up (haha), but I mean it was so painful the only position I wanted was a fetal one!
If you have it, you would also have a fever, be vomiting bile. Have you tried talking to the doctor, I mean, he told you it is not appendicitis, did he tell you what he thinks it is? How 'bout going to an emergency care center (not an emergency room)?
Do you have a fever?? Gosh, hope you are going to be okay...
The grossest person to ever walk the
planet!!
I have a Golden Retriever that needs her walk every day, sometimes
twice a day. I walk 2 miles daily and go to the gym at least 3x a week. No big butt here, although I have noticed things shift as we get a little older. I am 39 and my boobs shift to my armpits (LOL) Any exercises for them?
I agree...30 minutes walk/jog/run every day
on the treadmill if the weather is inclement. If not, 30 minutes with the dogs outside. Provides me with MUCH more energy to start the day with and a much better outlook. If you have other health conditions, you might want to check with your MD first, but otherwise, give it a try, starting slowly at first. You'll be amazed at the difference in the way you feel.
No - you have to walk 3-4 times a week
to keep your back healthy if you are going to sit in a chair 40+ hours a week. I try not to let my weight get too high either, because that really stresses the spine.
Walking is the best for the back. Pilates/yoga and light weights for upper body also very protective.
You need to get up and walk around about every half hour.
I had this for a long, long time. It wouldn't hurt to see a vascular doc about this. The reason I say this is because I was 50 years old and saw MD about that. My calves would get so hard it sometimes felt like they were going to burst. I had problems with walking for only short distances with horrible pain going down my legs. I thought it was just deconditioning. They ran tests and found I had claudication. They did angioplasty on both inguinals, left took but the right failed instantly. The left leg angioplasty lasted for about six months and I had to have aortiobifem bypass for both legs. Don't mean to scare you but better safe than sorry.
There is one - Ron Paul - and he does walk his talk. nm

let it go, doll....BREATHE... walk away, it's over. NM
sheesh
I LOVE houses, too. When I go out for a walk,
I like to look at the different houses and pretend I could afford to buy one of them, and decide which one that would be. Also like to look at the yards and see what I would change or leave the same.
My love of 'house-hunting' was born pretty early. When I was 7 my family moved, and I remember the house-hunting process went on for quite a long time. I loved seeing all the different houses! One even had a basement, something you don't see that often on the West Coast.
Even after my parents found a house and we moved, my mom (who LOVED house-hunting) still liked to go and look at them. (She was a total 'lookie-loo!') On hot summer days when we kids were bored, or on rainy days when we couldn't play outside, she'd pack us in the car and contact a friend of hers who was a realtor, and we'd go off looking at some of the more unique homes for sale, including a stone castle 'way up in the mountains. (That was pretty spooky - we did it on a rainy, thunder-and-lightning day).
So, if I were in real-estate, one thing I would definitely be is totally enthusiastic about EVERY house I was selling! But I don't think I could deal with all the phone calls, appointments, no-shows, etc. ESPECIALLY the weekend work. So, I guess I'll just have to keep on looking.
Like you, I like MT and am good at it. I job-hopped relentlessly in my early 20's. Finally got tired of the hiring-and-quitting merry-go-round, and became a Kelly Girl. Pay wasn't the best, but I got lots of interesting jobs, including an architect's firm high up in the hills above Malibu, a race-car builder, a toilet factory, and even Walt Disney Studios. It was a good way to job-hunt, too, because frequently if an employer liked my work, they'd offer me a permanent job.
I finally 'fell into' MT when I was between jobs, as usual, and a relative who did MT at a hospital invited me to lunch one day. We ate in the hospital cafeteria, and afterward she showed me her office (some MTs had their own offices back in those days!), and let me listen to and try to transcribe a report. Of course, my first attempt must've been pretty hilarious to read, but I liked it. She told me to take a transcription course at night school, and the rest is history. I just wish MT could go back to the kind of work it was back in the 70's, when you were considered to be an actual EMPLOYEE, and not just a 'cog in the wheel'.

Walk a dog, or just yourself, a few times a day, whenever you can. I have legs like rock even
