Same here....actually I don't like them at all. I only eat one if I feel hungry. They're just too heavy

I went to the gym yesterday and they said they'll be closed another 2 weeks!

I did some yoga in my room yesterday and got all sweaty and nasty but then I was too sore to do crunches . I need to find an alternative to the gym b/c yoga on its own isn't enough. Rollerblading would be an option if it wasn't POURING. I feel so FAT

You paid $50 bucks for headphones? Couldn't you go to the flea market and get them for like .80 cents?

I am getting old or something. I did kickboxing and my knee hurts

Speaking of health, I volunteered today at a school for kids with special needs. I was reminded of how lucky I am to be healthy and not have any disabilities. Alhumdulillah.

uh...no. they're special headphones that not only help keep your hair in place but they don't get in the way.

but thanks for making it seem like i flush money down the toilet.

I've lost my headphones a few times so I think I'll stick to those Sony $10 ones. oh and am I the only one who likes working out at home? I never liked the gym nor the environment but I may consider an all women one.

i was running today and i felt a weird cramp/pull in my calf muscle. so i stopped and stretched (stretched again, i had stretched before i started) then continued. a few minutes later i felt a really sharp pain...i think i pulled my calf muscle, it hurts to even walk now. its my own fault, i should have just stopped after the first one.

this happened this afternoon but alhamdulillah its starting to feel a tiny bit better, im hoping itll feel a lot better by saturday cuz i have work this weekend. i rarely sit down at all at work, im always standing/moving around and it would really suck to have to do that while in pain.

I workout at home too. Once upon a time I had joined a ladies only gym, but didn't like it all that much. Lucille Roberts, pfft.

fatima, Insh'Allah, you'll recover before the weekend. Will you be taking a break on Friday?
