A thread for Single Bandsters
Denise, yeah I have read a few of the forums on POF. But it's pretty much like real life. Men want what they want and it's not gonna change any time soon I'm betting. The only thing I can do is be completely honest in my profile and post pictures portraying how I really look. So far so good. Chrispy!! gratz!!! awww..and just in time for the holidays.:confused:

Other good news I ate the last of the chocolate halloween candy last night..lol. I had given away most of it but the last half bag of milky ways I was being stubborn about..ugh. Anyways..gone now. I can refocus. Also did 110 crunches and some of the circuit training before class last night. Love getting there early and sneaking some extra stuff in.

My hair!!!!
Well I had alot of hair loss at about 4 months after surgery. It stopped though and it started to come back. Well now that I had another large aound of weight loss...I'm losing hair again. Not as much as before..well probably just because there isn't as much to loose. I'm depressed about it. I'm gonna try the things you guys have said. I'm gonna be religious about my vitamins..I haven't been. I know bad me. Has anyone thought of taking the pregnancy vitamins. I know I took these while I was pregnant and my hair and nails were fantastic! Just a thought.

Okay had a great date saturday night!! It's soo cool now having guys just really dig you right off. Not having to just sell a guy just on my personality anymore..do you guys know what I mean? You can just see it in a guys eyes that they are drooling over you. It's sooo weird!! LOLLL anyways..he seems like a real nice guy. He wants to meet me during the week for a lunch date..cause he can't wait until the weekend..hehe. go me..LOL. I'm a little apprehensive because of the way he answered the kids questions. Not too sure that he'd be good with my daughter. But why would u even date someone who has a kid if your not sure about kids?..LOL. The only bad part is all this dating is getting me fat..LOL..geezes..

Walking shoe recommendations
If you can afford it please please get to a store that specializes in running shoes. I went to a place called the Runners Edge. I've had issues for years with shoes. Well silly me..I've been wearing a size and a half too small! No wonder my feet were falling asleep and cramping up. Although they still do on the eleptical but I'm thinking its a different issue. Anywaysss..it's gonna run between 80-120 bucks usually..but sooo very worth it I messed up my feet from not getting the right shoes. I just had my 65 year old mom go to the same store too and she is ranting and raving over her nike's she just got. I myslef were fitted with Brooks and love them.. it's like..the fit like a dream. But they measure your walking pattern and look at alot of different things when finding the right shoe. Anyways..good luck.

November Exercise!
The slacker has returned..sigh Okay Saturday I did workout. Lets see half an hour class that was mostly aerobics some weights. Then did 110 crunches and 15 minutes of off and on running. I can definitely feel myself getting stronger in the running area. I don't feel like I'm going to have a heart attack within the first 30 seconds. Anyways Saturday night had a lovely date and ate..lol..Sunday went to the circus..and ate..LOL.. I completely feel like a fat pig..Geeezeee...tonight is step aerobics..thank GOD

November Exercise!
We'll I'm here but didn't do squat last night. My day off. I'm telling u I gotta do something about the candy. This is ridiculous!! Now someone just brought in like 3 large ziploc bags of candy bars. I hate those people. I have decided I'm going to actually throw the candy away tonight that I have at home. This is what drug addicts must feel like. I mean its gonna be painful to throw it out..lol. I'm finding myself so addicted to sweets I'm going to have to do something about it. I'm going to have to take a complete weekend and just eliminate anything sweet and go cold turkey. I'm tired of the sweet tooth attacks. I know its off topic sorry I'm rambling. Thank GODDDD spin class is tonight.

Spinning class?
Hope you find a good instructor JMcambra. I wouldn't go either if I were annoyed. I loveee my instructor. She so supportive but yet ready to kick me in the ass with a scream of "pick up the pace!" if I need it. She watches if I turn my knob or not too..hehe. Anyways really hope u find one because I really think this class is doing the most for me and will probably do the same for you. Good luck It's kind of weird now..I'm finding that the standing up part is easier on me then just the sprinting stuff. Was soo not the case a few weeks ago..lol

I think half the people don't even read your profile. They look at your picture and just reply. I'm in a pickle. I have lots of interest and wanting dates but I don't have a babysitter lined up..ugh. Oh and manatee good luck finding someone hon. We all have our things I guess. Hey I don't want to date guys shorter than me and I'm going to have to put that in my profile cause I got about 7 pages of hits..I would say 4 of those pages are guys shorter than me. Call me shallow but I can't help what makes me feel uncomfortable. I would put something in your profile if its a big deal to you Manatee. I do have to say having a child makes things harder for sure..sigh. Btw I was kidding about the gamer guy..I'm really not that mean.

October 07 Exercise!!!!!!!!!!!!
Okay Saturday was a crazy day. Mom came over early and we spent the whole day doing stuff. I even actually bought some new clothes and went down another size in jeans!!..I felt like jumping around the store. I'm on the lowest size now at the fat stores so I'll be in normal stores soon!! So Saturday was out for exercising although I'm sure I did a ton of walking around. Sunday did 15 minutes on eleptical..then feet fell asleep so then did my weight circuit training for 15 minutes..then back to eliptical for 12 minutes. Also did 110 crunches. :boink: Tonight is step aerobics can't wait!..oops forgot my sports bra..LOL

What does proper restriction feel like???
In the end its still about calories going in...calories being burnt off...bread or no bread.

October 07 Exercise!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's a few in the class. But they have all been dragged by their significant other to the class too..lol. Yeah I don't get it. This class is farrrr from girly. Maybe its cause the leader is a female..i don't really know. But yeah it would be nice if more guys would try it..would at least give me someone to smile too..lol

Spinning class?
We do two positions while standing up. One where your up and over my trainer calls it. Leaning over the handle bars and gripping the front of them. The other ur basically just standing and just lightly touching the handle bars. Keeping a straight position is important for this one. So as far as positions go its probably varies by instructor.
