Winter Months



Recommended Posts

So as these dreaded winter months approach how are we all planning to adjust...

I'm actually semi-excited (although i do hate the cold and snow) because its kinda like i get to hid myself in big bulky clothes and shrink underneath (by going to the gym everyday to waste time, nothing better to do right??) and In the spring ill hopefully have a good reasons to buy a new wardrobe!!!! :whoo:

I'm going to buy jogging wear so I can continue ,my 3-4 mile walk.

Yes winter can help prepare you for the warm weather.

We have to be careful around the holidays though.

Also cold weather makes some of us lazy.

Our winters here in Arizona are the best months of the year. It's usually in the 60s-70s. So I'm looking forward to it.

Jealous!!! I live in chicago, so we get really lw temps. where its windy and lots of snow... Last year the temps gt to -15 i believe... freezing and windy which made it een worse.

And yes those holidays will be hard at my house we make like at least 15 different types of Cookies.. Not to mention the huge polish x-mas eve dinner and i mean huge:faint:

Heh... comments such as yours make our 115(F) summers worth it! :confused:

I'm originally from Iowa so I know exactly what you are talking about. I recall a hospital I used to work for, I worked the 3/11 shift. One night it was so cold my car door was frozen shut. That night we also had a guy come in that was frozen solid, he should have been taken to a funeral home, not a hospital. He was dead as dead could be, poor guy. It was soooo cold out that night, dangerously cold. He was trying to get into his house and dropped his keys in the snow. He couldn't find his keys and in fear for his life he broke out a window to get into his home and froze to death halfway through.

He was an older man so I assume he wasn't moving very fast and compromised anyway. But it was still sad.

So I know allll about your weather, that's why I live in the desert. :P

After living in both Chicago and spending a lot of time in the Arizona winters, I certainly agree that Arizona winters are so beautiful.

I wish I could be a snow bird. Someday..........

Thank you.

I do it by busting my butt. No white carbs, very little meat (I'm pretty much vegetarian at this point except fish), I keep calories at 600 daily, and hard cardio daily. My goal is to have surgery, lose 102 pounds, and have plastic surgery in one year. I was banded 12/6/06 and my plastic surgery is scheduled for 12/3/07.

Not completely sure yet! :confused:

I am having the TT on 12/3 but since I don't care for the Michael Jackson look I'm limiting myself to two procedures. For the other I can't decide on a face lift or boob job. My plastic surgeon has pretty much decided that I don't need a face lift, she said that is the last thing she would suggest. But my face shows, my boobs don't. A Wonder Bra works freak'en miracles!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
