It works for her because she does not go under for swimming. Someone siad that you can put a swim cap over that for actually swimming but no clue if that would really work.Tami and Bobby Sisemore Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08187334120592808316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223550408107171736.post-15085628538493260672012-03-09T21:32:05.951-05:002012-03-09T21:32:05.951-05:00I made another post of what I've been eating. ...I made another post of what I've been eating. Sometimes we make something different for Hannah, sometimes she eats what we eat but we'll slip in a lot of butter in her version to add on the calories for her. It's hard to try to serve calorie rich foods for skinny kiddos AND limit the calories in foods for Mom and Dad.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11282047182701941030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223550408107171736.post-84485258288609267632012-03-09T17:38:25.100-05:002012-03-09T17:38:25.100-05:00Keep it up!!

I had no idea how hard it was to lose weight in your *ahem* 40s. I started on 10/10 with a goal to lose 26# by Xmas. Well, to date I have lost 15# but its SOOO hard. I work out 1-2hrs per day, 5days a week. and I watch the food intake too. No clue how folks can lose weight as fast as they do cuz its not going fast enough for me for all the sweating I am doing. You should be so so proud of yourself and all that you have accomplished. Keep it up absolutely. Every # gone and kept off is a victory. I too struggled around the holidays, then there was illness and then a family death. and lots of eating out. I will say though even as I am eating all the things I know I shouldn't. at least I AM thinking about it and trying to limit. Every little bit helps..this is a lifestyle change. Stay in it for the long haul and keep on going! I'd love to know what menu changes you've made for your progress. I struggle to get enough protein into our meals.Mom 2 Meizhi and Kiomihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17479085971615735559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223550408107171736.post-53852795413650599272012-03-09T11:18:07.574-05:002012-03-09T11:18:07.574-05:00You are amazing!!

I like to listen to books while I walk and sometimes find that I spend more time in the pool because I don't want to get out until the end of the chapter.<br /><br />You will get funny looks from people when you use the ipod in the pool. I have had many people caution me that I was going to ruin my ipod. One older gentleman jumped out of the pool because he thought I was going to electrocute everyone in the pool. Many people will also want to know where they can get their own.<br /><br />If you decide to purchase one, you need to be very careful to buy the correct one for you EXACT ipod. The littlest difference can be HUGE.<br /><br />Congratulations and keep up the good work!!<br />Barbara<br />Mother of twins from Jiangxi, ChinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5223550408107171736.post-10317909115352669422012-03-09T01:18:28.831-05:002012-03-09T01:18:28.831-05:00Woohoo!!!
