Guest guest Posted December 4, 2003 Report Share Posted December 4, 2003 I just got the packing out of my arm and it is still a little infected, got another shot in the butt, not pleasant and five more days on antibiotics, yucky. Got to get the yeast meds too, can't stand this itching and I am not patient enough to do the all natural treatment, no way. I will do both, that works for me. I will eat some garlic too. I am still going to Canada, my hubby will have to help me with my hair and stuff. Anyhow, hope this will all be behind me soon ya know, when it rains it poors, Monday i can add my feet to the list of pain hee hee. It sucks I have not worked out all week and feel like a slug for it but that is ok, need to rest and heal now. As far as fat burning, anything aerobic will burn fat and calories girl, running is by far the BEST but not always easy to do, walking, spinning, riding a bike are all good options. There really is NO way of spot reducing fat around the middle, it just needs to be burned like anyother fat. I would say sit ups and that type of thing will help to stregnthen abs but not spot reduce. So do what you can to get your heart rate up there for at least 30 minutes, preferably 45 and you will lose fat in the middle as well as other spots. Oh well as long as you eat well too hee hee!

I'm sure they asked you when the last time was that you had a tetnus. Hey, I'm impressed with you. for two reasons or more, two now. You're the active one. I wish you could get me more motivated in that area. I go to PT today. You must have really fought off the FMS because you handle pain well. the other reason is: does drinking acidophalus milk take care of vagianl yeast infection? You know what else works really good is garlic. It worked for me and I was amazed. I'm fighting a yeast now with vagicnal cream nad garlic pills. I will definately pray for you. Take it easy. I'm learning to pace myself and i feel the world better when i take good care of my body in a balanced way. well I probalby can't tell you anything there. You done exceptionally well. can you give me some home exercises to do that will help tummy and burn fat. Maybe two. Supose PT > will give me some. I have FM and back injury, but its all doing pretty well. Hope you recover soon and recover from feet soon. Hey your almost quadraplegic, you'll need to park in Handicapped parking. Ha Ha, Totally not you! You're so athletic. Hey I hope no one minds me saying that i " m only being light and love multi handicapped people; that is my field Special Educ.
