Guest guest Posted August 6, 2006 Report Share Posted August 6, 2006 I also agree with swhoutx025. I had PCP myse;f before and I nearly died from it. Take it from me... don't mess around. I felt faint an left it for a week or two and then I nearly died. I had a hole in my right lung, it fully collapsed and my left lung was on the way out also. Don't put it off for anything... just go. Even if they clear you, nothing lost.Good luckDFOn 8/4/06, swhoutx025 < atoyota@...> wrote: Hi Casey, sorry to hear about your problem, but the SOB you are describing sounds exactly like pneumonia.

Guest guest Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Hi Marguerite - I downloaded them & burned them to a cd (as a backup) then uploaded the three sessions to itunes from the CD. That works great and you have a backup of what you purchased ini case your computer (or your ipod!) crashes. Colleen help! Hi guys, I just purchased 's mp3 sessions but I cannot figure out how to download them so that I can put them on my ipod or save them into my i-tunes library... all I seem to be able to do is play them from the quicktime player on the mind for body website. This seems strange, it would be nice to take them with me sometimes I like to go sit down at the river and listen to the podcasts and had thought I would be able to do the same with these. Did anyone else have this problem? Thanks, Marguerite (PS I ordered the intuitive eating book and look forward to its arrival!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 12, 2008 Report Share Posted October 12, 2008 Thanks! I had to step away from the computer for a bit after a frustrating attempt at actually downloading them, but after that, was able to actually download them (I had to right click to save to my computer) so now I have them saved and backed up! Thanks again, Marguerite [insideoutweightlos s] help!

Guest guest Posted October 13, 2008 Report Share Posted October 13, 2008 Colleen, how did you burn them to CD? E. Mello, MLIS Teacher-librarian Center School, Hopkinton " The principle goal of education in the schools should be creating men and women who are capable of doing new things, not simply repeating what other generations have done; men and women who are creative, inventive and discoverers, who can be critical and verify, and not accept, everything they are offered.

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 i have an event that I am going to in 3 weeks and so for the last 3 weeks I have been diligently working on eating less and exercising more (and i have lost 5 pounds!!!) but now I'm losing my motivation. even though the event is getting closer, its like I feel " comfortable " with only 5 pounds even though my goal was 10. I really want to lose 5 more in the next 3 weeks. its hard because these are the last few pounds that I just cant seem to shed!!! thoughts? tips? how do you stay motivated?

Guest guest Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 Two pounds a week is the generally recommended amount of weight loss. The other issue would be if you are at the correct weight or over-weight. Whatever...you are still loveable and deserving whatever you weigh. I wish you happiness and self-love.
