If you have what did you fight about? Fortunately my husband and I agree on how we should parent our children but many couples do not. http://theblogfrog.com/1255231/forum/47432/whats-the-dumbest-parenting-argument-youve-been-in.htmlTue, 17 Aug 2010 15:01:56 GMT I have been divorced now over 5 yrs and it has not been easy but it has been extremely rewarding. People marry to stay married, I did. I also did everything I could to make it work. I went 9 yrs to counseling 4 yrs to al Anon. I have 2 kids and they needed to knmopw that the way our family life was, is not how I want them to live theirs, so I had no choice , as the D(X)H became increasingly drunkr and became more violent. Now which brings me to the question. How do you meet people? I am a mother and a packaged deal. I am never going to put a man before my childrens well being. They come first as long as Im responsible for their upbringing. It is not easy, I dont go to bars, I dont have very many single friends, I dont see anyone at church and I dont have friends with quailty prospects. So It aint EZ ! Are there many of you out there who are divorced and remarried or in my boat? Just curious . Whats your story???? http://theblogfrog.com/1255231/forum/45446/i-want-to-marry-again-someday.htmlSun, 08 Aug 2010 19:06:09 GMT Hey, it’s Rita! I’m desperate and need your help.

For the last week, I have only done the shred once and ran stairs for 30 minutes. That's it!! My eating habits have been crap...fast food twice already this week! I was doing so good and have lost 10 3/4 inches in 3 weeks.It seems any time I start a diet, I do good for a month, then I drop off. Do any of you have any motivation tips for me to keep going strong? My first goal date is coming up on June 21st and I want to be down 10-15 lbs and 1 size smaller. At the rate I'm going, I will never make it. http://theblogfrog.com/1255231/forum/18664/im-stuck-in-a-rut.htmlFri, 09 Apr 2010 13:55:07 GMT I'm excite that the weather is getting better so i can go on daily walks/jogs...

I created this spot for all things fitness and healthy eating. Let's introduce ourselves and hold each other accountable on this weightloss journey... I'm Jackie wife and mommy of 4, I previously did the 30 day Shred for 61 days with great results (you can check my blog for pictures and daily log of my previous workout plan) i'm currently doing P90X for 35 days now and i absolutely LOVE this program, a little intense but AMAZING RESULTS (you can check my 30 day update of that as well) Me and some ladies used to meet here for daily logs and it really kept us going, i would like to get this going again.. So if your down.. LET'S DO THIS :)http://theblogfrog.com/1255231/forum/17048/shred-and-other-workouts,-lets-do-it.htmlWed, 31 Mar 2010 00:18:59 GMTHave you ever tried any of them?http://theblogfrog.com/1255231/forum/16108/home-workout-videos.htmlSun, 21 Mar 2010 02:58:14 GMTWould be this hard but feel so good! For years i spent my life being so TIRED! I never wanted to do anything because the extra weight kept me hostage. 4 kids later i knew i had to do something about it! And here i am- 5 months into my weight loss journey (is taking a long stretch because I'm not willing to let go of my favorite food that easy) It's been a tough ride but I'm in it to win it! 2 1/2 more months and i should reach my goal. I just want to encourage all you ladies who like me desperately want to lose weight- DO IT- Take the step start with your mind then your body will follow. Set small goals and tackle them but DO IT.. I started with the 30 Day Shred which was great for me- and not this workout P90X is taking me to the top... Sharing this thought because i can't believe how good i feel and how different i see the world now :) Stay Blessed http://theblogfrog.com/1255231/forum/14252/never-thought-losing-weight-.htmlWed, 03 Mar 2010 03:34:19 GMTYou currently doing?
