strawberries-and-running-shoes- asked: Geeeez, haters gonna hate! These people are crazy, obviously you aren't trying to just bum around and not have a job! Keep at it, you'll get something eventually Risa! My dad was out of work for 2 years and last month found a job, it's not quite full time but better than nothing and I am so thankful. Things will turn around for ya! Btw, good luck and great job on the weight loss!
professorfalconer asked: Hey, you know what might work? A job. You should see about getting one of those.

The Help-Risa-Get-A-Bed Fund
is now up to $36.62! Thanks for the donations folks! They really mean a lot. Several people have helped me price various bed options through private message, and it looks like I can go as low as the $150-$200 range to get something good without going to some creepy guy’s basement via Craigslist. So that would mean I’m now 1/5 of the way there! Woohoo!
Not that dizzy anymore!

monsterxloss:
Zumba Power
Zumba Cardio Party
Zumba Basic
Zumba Sculpt and Tone
Zumba Advanced
Gonna take a look at these over the weekend, but I really prefer the classes so I can actually talk to the instructor and look wherever I need to instead of wherever the camera shows me.

Anonymous asked: I know you have a lot of health troubles - are you able to work in a retail environment? It's not the best, but a lot are picking up hiring for spring, especially home improvement places with garden centers, such as Home Depot and Lowe's. I'm not sure if you've tried either of those, but if you haven't maybe it could be a temporary way to bring in support.

THIS is why I hate taking prescription pain...
Due to the whole issue of my inflatable bed not staying inflated, my usual chronic back pain was 10 times worse today. I had to take some of my prescription pain killer, hydrocodon-acetaminophin, just to be able to come into my unpaid internship today. (~8:45am) A little while later, I didn’t feel any better, so I took a second as I’ve had to do on occasion. (~10:30am?) Helped a...

(Just in case i worded that confusingly, Day 1 is 400 calories. You eat 500 calories of on veg things, you must exercise worth...

REMINDER! Tiny Chat
girlgrowingsmall:
This week’s Tiny Chat will NOT be a Q&A. Instead, it’s just going to be an open session free-for-all! A “come as you are” kind of thing to just unwind and chat with other folks here in our TWLC. (That’s Tumblr Weight Loss Community for the n00bs.)

veggienerd-deactivated20120517 asked: I love that you encourage people to eat within a range. One thing that drives me crazy about MyFitnessPal is that it seems they freak out if you are one calorie under or over. Eat 1199 calories, and WARNING! your metabolism is going into starvation mode! Eat 1201 and they broadcast to all your friends that you have gone over your goals and failed. I think eating within a range encourages...
