    I used to live near a school track and I always felt safe walking there. It was completely fenced in, you could close the gate. Didn't have to worry about dogs or cars.

    How can I tone underarm and upper thigh areas?

    In the kitchen, Do not worry about people making fun of you by what you are wearing. You are exercising for Pete's sake!!!!! When I first went to the gym I was too shy to wear those outfits that the other ladies were wearing. I wore a light weight pair of sweat pants and a baggy T-shirt...

    How can I tone underarm and upper thigh areas?

    In the kitchen: I just got back from a walk to find your message. For my inner thighs I stand with my feet about 2 to 3 feet apart and stretch as far as I can side to side. After I get the muscles used to it I go faster. Find music with a beat you can keep up with. I started out doing 30...

    How can I tone underarm and upper thigh areas?

    To: In the kitchen. You said you were going to try these exercises to see if they help. You will have to be patient. A lot of people give up after weeks or months of exercising because they don't see the results they want soon enough and think it's not working. I know from experience. Don't...

    Cake sinks in middle

    Thank you everyone for trying to help. I never heard of the baking911.com. In reading this, it says the purpose of creaming is to create tiny air bubbles. Vegetable oil does not hold them at all. Perhaps then it is the vegetable oil in it but it makes the cake so moist. Then like I said...

    I am buying a slow cooker!!

    ArticKatt, A crock pot is my favorite wedding gift to get for someone. I guess because I know how valuable they are. Sometimes I will hear people say. I have had a crock pot for years and never have used it. Perhaps they just do not know how great they are to use. If they would ever get...
