Also, having an older friend or cousin or something helps. I would have not been comfortable with my mom helping me, but my cousin basically said, "OH, get over it. here is what you do!"
I tried for years to get comfortable with tampons, until finally my doctor mentioned to me that I had a severely retroverted uterus which could explain the reason they were uncomfortable for me.

I felt the same way when we moved. I left most of my long-time friends and my extended family to move to a city that was totally new to me. We met people at church, and I met some moms at different play-groups, but they were (and some still are) people that I 'know', not what I would consider 'friends'. After 10 years, my hubby and I have friends together as a couple, and we each also have our own friends, thru work, and school, but I still miss my friends from home.

likenoother-I wish we had a marine corp marathon here. I know my husband wouldn't think twice of joining (he used to be in the marines and misses it terribly). I would be trecking right behind him too. I would love to do an actual marathon. That's one of my goals when I hit goal---to do a triathlon. I guess it's more like a life goal for me.

You don't have to hit goal to do a triathlon! Triathlons are a blast, and training for them is an excellent way to lose weight! Pick out a race and start training for it!

That is going to be such a blast, you get to be racing amidst all that hoopla! My dad has done that marathon several times and just RAVES about it. I'd like to do it some day.

So, Bluesers..I'd like input from my teamies. In your expert opinions, what is the quickest way to drop inches....to heck with the number on the scale!...Ahem, sorry team. But, if I want to look more slender and lose some serious inches fast, what are your recommendations?

I'm thinking that strength traning and HIIT might be my ticket. What do you all think?
