Can I join the team?
Hi Everyone, I would like to join your team. I am two weeks short of 47, very much overweight and in need of motivation. I have had periods in time when I faithfully used my C2, but unfortunately this year have had many crises in my personal life. My father, who lives 500 miles to the north, had a m...

Hello all, We are having a "Biggest Loser" competition at work. Today was the second weigh-in, one month after the initial. Although I have not been very good with my eating habits, I have been very fastidious about making sure that I put in 5K at least 4-5 days per week. Over the last week I was si...

Hey Swoz, I don't think you're a "quack" at all! I have the utmost respect for Psych Nurse Practitioners. We have a 20-bed dementia unit in my building, and utilize psych services frequently both for the folks in the dementia unit as well as at other levels of care with dementia and depression. Mayb...

[quote="MomofJBN"]:lol: You're right , Martha. My great- and great, great-grandfathers founded the Schenley distillery and the town of Schenley. And, yes, that is my first name. What a small world! I understand the distillery went out of business many years ago, but the town is still there. We have ...

Is the duck name “Quack” already taken? I haven’t joined a team yet, but might want to reserve it. I work as a Nurse Practitioner. There seems to be someone with a Y chromosome in the Women’s Forum who kindly referred to those in the medical establishment as medical “quacks”. The name might be a go...

I don't have a duck name, I use my dog's name, Rhody. She is a black lab. We spend a lot of time boating on the river and she loves to swim and chase ducks. I thought that would be a good name because she can motivate all of us to go farther and faster! If anyone is offended, I can certainly change ...

I should probably hop on this bandwagon. I'm only trying to lose about 5 lbs (hit that lightweight target), but I need help maintaining a regular exercise program. I tend to get de-railed after a while. Schenley Schenley, is that your real name? How unusual--I live in Western Pennsylvania near Pitt...

Count me in, too! :D I have several health concerns as well. Over the last two years my cholesterol has been elevated, this was identified by wellness screenings at work. The first year I denied that it was a reliable result because we were only told to fast for three hours prior to the blood draw. ...

I also get tendinitis in my elbow, not so much from rowing but from other projects that I am working on. I found a brace at WalMart that works great--it's called Air Cast, it straps around just below your elbow and has a small pillow insert. $12.95. Without it, when the tendinitis is flaring up, it ...
