(trucker girl enters the room quietly and sits in the back) Hi, my name is trucker girl and I'm a couchaholic. That said, I'm still in. I was in last year and I mostly kept up. I've been doing fairly well- though being 7.5 months pregnant means I get winded a lot easier than I used to. Heck, I...

I didn't exercise today but every other day since my last post I've done my 30 minute cardio routine. It's a lot less of a work out than my regular (non-pregnancy) dvds but it's about all I can handle right now. Thanks for the message (from the gal in your spin class). I need all the motivation...

Does the transition from Alaska to Hawaii pose any health problems... in the sense that drinking hot coffee followed by ice water puts stress on the stomach (I don't know if that's actually true- just using the scenario for demonstrative purposes)? I mean, will you survive? Lol.

Am I the only one here or is everyone just afraid that if they post I'll show up at their house and eat their food? Today wasn't too bad, granted, I slept most of the day. I had a bowl of cereal (Corn Chex, fat free milk, and a spoon full of sugar to help the medicine go down) and a glass of...

I got nothing dive related but I got plenty of baby items. I'm due in March and my last dive was this past June. None of my family dive so it doesn't occur to them unless I specifically ask for something. I did get money, but, with a baby on the way, that money isn't earmarked for scuba related...

Confessions of a bad, bad eater... I was at Dollar General yesterday and I bought (dare I admit it?) a bag of Chips Ahoy! After my DG run I was in the car for another 10 or 15 minutes. I was hungry, so I ate. I don't know how many I ate. And, as I sit here typing this in shame, I am eating more...

Sigh (trucker girl comes trudging, slowly, back to the pack with her head hanging low from shame)... ArcticDiver, thanks for the inspirational mommy-to-be stories. Physically I probably should have joined the gym but financially I just can't get myself to do it when I know I can do aerobics...

Almity- I'm due mid-March. Didn't exercise at all today. I woke up late and it didn't even occur to me to exercise until it was almost 11 am and the hubby and I were getting ready to head out. By then it was too late. I did take the dogs for a 20 minute trip around the neighborhood tonight...

All the charts say I'm supposed to have gained 10 lbs by today (20 weeks prego) and I'm just below that. about 8.5 lbs up. Although the halloween candy that was left over doesn't help (they did TorT here yesterday). I've been walking the dogs, but it's really cold now. So I'm focusing more on...

Exactly. There has to be give and take. It can't be a matter of a non-diving spouse allowing you to dive (or not allowing you). It has to be respect that you have things you want to do that she doesn't want to do and that's cool. But if there's no respect, it can't work. Very, very well...

Good point ;)

S_J... we're in beans and rice mode (but I can't get hubby to switch to beans and rice full time!). snorkelcorey- the simple advice is to exercise more and eat less. But, without knowing your height and any health issues you may or may not have, we can't really suggest a course of action. If...

Ditto. My husband doesn't dive (I found diving 7 years after we got married) and we often take separate vacations. I also have a whole group of dive buddy friends that he doesn't know- he met Notso_Ken and his wife once but that's it. It would be better if we both dove, but he won't do it and...

Scuba Jenny! I see Dave Ramsey in your sig line- woo hoo! I'm better than I deserve! (sorry, had to comment!)

Hi guys! I'm just popping in to see what's going on. I've gained 5 lbs from my starting point (I'm pregnant, so I'm allowed ;)) so I'm about right on. I'm planning to join a gym once winter sets in and I WAS walking 45 min- 1 hr a day but it's just so dang hard to get my butt out of bed, get...

The miniseries no one saw but I loved: Invasion Iowa. It's so obscure you can't even buy a DVD (though you CAN download the show). Long live Captain Kirk!

Gilboa is one of my favorite places to dive. When I was in Hawaii diving with Justleesa, I found myself looking forward to diving my dear, ol' quarry! I won't be able to dive again until next spring/summer and I find myself looking forward to paying that $19 again! The "parking" fee isn't...

I was about to ask if his bride to be knows he posted that- hilarous! In his defense, my husband talked me into going to the mall and buying a Playstation (they had just come out) on our wedding night. I'd rather have a husband obsessed with dive gear than video games. :D Congratulations and...

No photoshopping necessary! (you said fish faces... you didn't say they had to be the faces of fish!)

Welcome, DS! I enjoyed diving there last year with Pir8 and CaroleN (what's her username?). Management requested that I smuggle a paddle fish in from Gilboa next time I come (without their knowledge, approval or support, of course) but thus far I've been unable to comply. :D
