If you do it before you eat, you will burn fat instead of glycogen. This may take a bit of getting used to at first, but it also makes your day go better because once your body gets use to it, it provides a lot of energy. Do this every other day for about 30-45 minutes, but no more than that.
Everybody has a sixpack - just a matter of getting down to it.

While on a treadmill...
...I used to transcribe for a doctor in a med group who insisted on dictating while he was working out on his treadmill at home, walking and running. My fellow MT said his heavy breathing constituted sexual harassment (not seriously though). He did not get our point until we mimicked him in person. He turned red from embarrassment, then laughed for a good 5 minutes. LOL!
transcribing on treadmill
Haven't figured out how yet but there has to be a way to transcribe while walking on a treadmill. Any suggestions?
I go for a run on my treadmill to a really upbeat CD.
Nothing like exercise to just burn that stress to bits! About 3 miles later, I am as calm as can be.
Morning baby, morning adult. Kids born at 11:30AM (both) are night owls, however. Go figure! :) nm

Does anyone have recommendation of a good treadmill? My cheap one..sm
just threw me off for the second time in about a month (the belt slips when going over 2.6 MPH). I have treadmill burns down both shins, one hand and an ugly bruise. I was not able to grab the "safety cord" in time to shut if off. I know good ones are quite expensive and have looked on Consumer Reports but would like to have personal recommendations if possible. TIA!
I have a treadmill, 10-15 minutes, jumps my start.
exercise, not a workout. I just have to move.
Ok, maybe I should just stay in bed LOL How about "every morning" not everyone morning. Wow. C
What about the one that's in your bed serving breakfast? nm

Don't you have to eat, like, hamburgers for breakfast sm
on that diet? I knew a gal who did and nearly barfed when she said she ate burgers for breakfast. Yuk.
Moe's for dad, lunchable for son, breakfast for me
We are all eating different tonight!
Still trying to figure out breakfast LOL

No-Doz..... breakfast (and sometimes dinner!) of
PS: Bananas seem to help, too. All that potassium, I guess. They make me bounce off the walls.
How about a "What's for Breakfast" Post?
Coffee, gotta have coffee...that's about it lately! B O R I N G !
The first breakfast convenience foods --
looked kind of like big tootsie rolls! ROFL!!!

Everyone gets a night to pick what they want and tonight it is breakfast. Nmsg

Breakfast...bacon, eggs, biscuits and gravy!

In the kitchen having breakfast. Turned on the TV and Charlie Gibson was on
when it was after 9:00. The first building was smoking behind him and he was describing it, not yet realizing what was going on. Then the second plane glided into view, and thinking it was a small observation plane, I said - "Get back, you idi*t, you're too close!" Then it hit, of course, and Charlie processed it in his brain and announced what I couldn't get my mind around: "Then this was no accident."
Breakfast at Tiffany's, Rebecca, Wuthering Heights -- I really should come into the present but I
just love all of the old movies so much more than the new stuff, although some of it is okay. For current I would have to say Beautiful Mind, Cinderella Man and Gladiator, cause I just think Russell Crowe is a wonderful actor, although not too sure of his true personality.
Losing 500 lbs
Thanks for being so blunt.  You're right, I haven't been respecting myself by staying in this situation and I only have myself to blame. Every day I feel more and more drained, physically, mentally and emotionally. It is a very unhealthy situation. I was stupid and had those rose-colored glasses on when I made a hasty decision to marry him last year. I don't respect anyone who is content with just lounging around watching TV and the like, does not contribute to the responsibilities of the household or to society at large and sucks taxpayer's money dry by being on bogus disability.
Breakfast sausage in white gravy over canned biscuits... MMMmmm! Biskits and gravy!
Losing Mind
I guess about now after five weeks, I would be losing my mind too, seeing that the father was let go, even though he told those boys, no body, no crime, and the other two boys are let go. What lawyer father would tell his son no body, no crime and then not wonder what is going on? Of course, he knows what went down. Any law abiding father, when he sees that a girl is missing and his son, who was with her the night before asked about no body, no crime would go to the police. You think Natalees mother is acting like she lost her mind, I would be much worse. I would be protesting in front of the rich kids house, I would be speaking out every chance I got, shame the police into doing their job, which they obviously are not doing too well.
Losing battle, Huh?
By the way, I have never even had my ears pierced, and now I'm too old to care.
Losing hearing
Does anybody else feel that over time their hearing has deteriorated due to the constant noise from wearing headphones?
Might be growth not losing MTs. xx

losing lines
I work for a company, shall remain nameless but has been on this board, and is now, tons. They STEAL our lines and think we are so dumb and do not realize it. Do not even ask where your lines go, line count different from day to day as to what one has typed the previous day, and you will get no response. The money goes to the CEOs. There was an article today that stated CEOs average pay is 350,000 a year, while their employee salary is 28,000. That BITES big time. We slave, they gain. That is where the money goes.
Losing lines
Soon the only jobs that will not be outsourced will be manual labor jobs. We are losing our jobs constantly to cheaper labor. Imagine how much money these CEOs save by sending our work? That is what sickens me to death. My friend's husband is in manual labor and has to work out of time due to lack of work in his own state. This is a sad, sad world we live in.
Are they losing accts? Do
The work has dried up. Again I won't make a full paycheck. Others are saying the same thing. I think you may be right. Especially if you are an employee. But wasn't that their plan from the start?
I can't imagine what this package is they are sending out.
Unless they are going to offer to provide equipment, sufficient work/or a plan to give me lines (like on-call pay) for sitting with nothing to do IN WRITING, and a raise of 5 cents a line, the package will probably go in the round file right here beside me.
That is so sad. I hate to think about losing our pup
He's 4, but he's still our pup. Just a mutt, but he's a sweetie.
Tell your mom that a bunch of Mainers are sorry for her loss.
Losing faith...
Well every year I think things can't be any worse than the last. This year dealing with disturbing financial woes, working too much and a rebellious daughter. How do people some people go through all this and still keep their faith in God and life in general. Sometimes I just want to throw my hands up in the air and just forget it.
Sorry, just got more bad news and here alone working and needed to vent.
losing weight sm
I lost 105.5 pounds total and have kept it off for a year (gained 10 pounds back with this pregnancy, but I am 32 weeks along). I had to follow a more structured plan to actually lose weight. I used the Weight Watchers calculator and books to lose weight, but I did not go to meetings. I went from 235.5 to 130 on a 5 foot 5 frame. I don't follow the program now, but I have learned how to eat. I used to eat because I was bored, tired, etc. Not anymore!
Losing a client
You have my empathy.
This happens with the big companies too. The MT is the last to know that client whose account they have worked on will not renew a contract. I worked 60 days in a row on an account to help catch it up not knowing the Co. was losing the account. I felt betrayed because during that time I could have been trained for something else. I was on a C-phone at the time, and others had already been trained on newer systems. Things really can be quite thoughtless/heartless when regarding the MTs feelings. Makes one feel like just a number. Or as they say a "Human Resource" I that that word..... it sounds like an entity that uses-up, wads-up, and then discards. What ever happened to personnel? Once again, you have my empathy.
MTs losing jobs
I'm sorry to hear about you losing your job. One comment said that MTs are losing jobs all over the place. Could someone tell me more about this ... the loss of MT jobs. I'm new and I'm trying to decide whether to train as an MT or not. Thanks for all your help. I am soooooo undecided.

losing business
Obviously, you have secure accounts. I recently have lost 1/3 of my income due to VR, and I am sitting out in the middle of no where where we cannot get DSL. Wireless may be a possibility, but have been working on this for over a year. So, yes modern technology is great, but when the rest of your income has been limited with no overtime, and you count on that side job, modern technology hurts.
losing MT jobs
Transcription jobs are becoming very slim in Central Minnesota. One hospital outsourced to India, and two hospitals send to a service company. Our hospital may end up going VR which will most likely put half of us out of work too. Either way you look at it, it is a dying profession. Like someone said, you have to work twice as many hours to make enough money to live on - so don't talk about those poor poverty stricken people overseas. Without jobs here, we are going to be all poverty striken as well. How do we make a house payment and pay our taxes so they can send the money to these countries!
Possibly losing my job due to VR...
I was told that the clinic I MT for is considering an expensive VR program. The person that told me works for them too and said that it is about 98% accurate. She also said it might be something I should consider in order for my IC business to grow. Hello? Why would I invest in something I know the medical field would pay for in substitution for hiring an MT? She told me that this VR program costs about $4,000 but she did not know the product make. Is there really a VR product that accurate for that amount of money? If so, then I think it is time for me to get out before I am no longer needed. 
Topic is now losing by 2%
Please go vote so others in this country might be made a little more aware of the problems outsourcing is causing this country!
losing acct
Hello Patty,
I lost an acct about two yrs ago and it hurt, but I wasn't backing down. The OM of one clinic knew the OM of another clinic I typed for and they mentioned to each other how much they were paying me per line. The OM from the higher paying clinic called me and asked why I was charging her clinic more. I told her first of all it wasn't really any of her business, but the other acct I had had for 10 yrs and I billed them 50,000 lines/mth, plus I picked up tapes every day. Her particular clinic I only had about 6 mth., billed about 3000 - 5000 lines/mth, and didn't get tapes every day. Needless to say, I never picked up another tape from that clinic, but that's the way it goes sometimes.
Losing account--please help
Hi...I am an IC who has been doing several doctors from a hospital account by way of picking up tapes. I just found out yesterday that the hospital account I have been doing has decided to have the doctor dictate into their system and have a MT service do those accounts. Is there any way I can propose to keep those accounts as what would I need to access their system so that I can still ....I need help fast......and just need to know what to do. Thank you anyone that can share some insight into this.......
Losing account
I am so sorry about your situation. I just recently lost my hospital job on Monday. What a way to start a Monday. They laid me off due to shortage of work. I have only been there for 5 months. I do not know what is happening with this industry. They are always thinking they are going to find it for a cheaper rate and sacrifice quality. It seems like the Docs do not care anymore and it is a shame because these are people's important documents and it should not be compromised. I am calling all the Docs that I did at the hospital and see if they are in need of a transcriptionist. I probably will run into your situation also.
Good Luck. When God closes a door, he opens a window and I believe everything is for a reason. You may not see it but we will down the road.
losing account
I wish you didn't have to back through the interviewing again....but you'll be just fine! Who knows, maybe you'll work for the service that the hospital hires! On a side note, how did you find that picture of my boyfriend, Dr. Christian whats-his-name on NipTuck?
Losing account to EMR
So I am losing 2 accounts to EMR December 1. Anyone know exactly HOW the EMR works. I'm wondering is there still a way for the MT to be involved without losing the account? I'm sure there are different EMR programs, but has anyone had experience with EMR??
Are you snoozing and losing?
Maybe you ought to check for the good stuff too! Just a thought...
You are surely losing a lot
doing this. Why not check as you are doing and spell check at end. It seems like you are shooting yourself in the foot by rereading each report. I never do and just got my quarterly report yesterday and had a 99.9% accuracy.
Yes . . . I know, but I am afraid of losing my job if I do.

losing internet connection off and on
Losing internet connection happened quite a bit for me. I kept calling Comcast, they said to reboot. I had a computer tech out to look at the computer and they deleted a bunch of junk and it ended up my cable modem was bad. It was 3 years old. I got a new one and it works great now.
She ended up losing the baby and she did tell him about it.
xx
Yup, if you don't mind losing the account and/or
can afford it. I can relate - have been in the same boat. Its a cut-throat business. Chances are if they go with the new service, they'll be back calling on you when they find the quality of service lacking. But then again, they may not. Its hard, and I'm sorry for your situation.
