About Me
Hi, my name is Penny and I'm a foodaholic. OK, seriously, I love food. I hate the word "foodie" but I guess that's me. I'm trying to find a way to be able to love food and not be overweight anymore. I work in an inbound call center and help people out when they're going through rough times in their lives. It's important for people with my job to do things they really love when they go home. Unfortunately, doing what I love is making me fat. I need to work on that :)

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic recovery tool for shoulder in the forum Gear Reviews 20 hours, 13 minutes ago
Ok, bad coincidence but I seem to have hurt my shoulder, too. I Have no idea how. I’m going to take my own advice and do the right yoga for it. But, did you try the foam roller? I’m curious to know if I should do what you’re doing, if it helps.

I forgot about those cooling towels. They never seem like they’re working until you take them off and realize what they were doing. The same like cold medicine. Doesn’t feel like anything is benefiting until it wears off!

Try yoga for sore shoulders because that will help to work it out. If you foam roll without knowing what you’re doing, you could make it worse. Then, try to push less on your shoulder workouts so you won’t overdo it anymore. Take care!

My area is hot then cold then hot then cold. I’m just trying to dress appropriately and not climate control everything in the hopes that I’ll just keep comfortable.

I didn’t even know this was a thing. Does a millimeter really make a difference?

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic depression in isolation is sending my weight up in the forum Health Forums 1 month, 1 week ago
Are you ok now? I hope you’re feeling better. It’s true. Depression isn’t just a matter of feeling blue all the time. We all have our own version. Try not to be hard on yourself these days. It’s very hard to try to change your habits when everything else around us is changing so much. Try to do more things you enjoy. Get yourself feeling some r…[Read more]

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic Why do runners like the road? in the forum Running Forum 2 months ago
It makes a difference if you run regularly. If you’re going for one run every month or so, it likely won’t matter. If you’re running a few times a week, there is definitely a difference. If it really matters to you, run on a track.

I don’t have that much space. I can just do yoga as long as I don’t have to spread my arms like a T while lying on the floor. What other workouts do I have room for in my home?

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic Caffeine is affecting me more in the forum Supplements Reviews 2 months, 3 weeks ago
I’ve noticed the same thing. Not quite as strongly, but that I can’t have quite as much coffee. I’ve started making less in the morning. If I want more coffee “experience” i just make an instant decaf. It’s not as good but it’s still coffee but without making me feel tense.

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic How to Stay Healthy in Social Distancing in the forum Health Forums 3 months ago
I say dig out any gym equipment you have purchased but haven’t used in a long time. Do a new video every day. Go out to walk to get fresh air even if you’ve done another workout. If you’re fit enough, go for a jog or run to get some great cardio

I think it depends on the ingredients. If they contain the right ingredients in the right amount, it shouldn’t matter if it’s a pill or a liquid.

Digestion can make you tired. Are you eating a lot of processed stuff? Are you cutting too many carbs?

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic Yoga bag pointers: asking in the forum Gear Reviews 3 months, 3 weeks ago
Gaiam has a great sleek yoga mat bag with a cargo pocket. It looks like the lululemon one but it’s a third of the price. It’s well made, fits well and it holds everything you need to bring, but doesn’t cost much. It comes in a lot of colors, too.

Say I get lazy and stop exercising for a week. Will i already lose fitness by then? If I exercise regularly but then stop, how long does it take to lose my progress?

If I’m doing great and sticking to the plan but I get sick for a day and eat random stuff (toast, banana, other things for sick people),is that going to mess up my progress? Will it slow down my metabolism?

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic Tight hamstrings in the forum Activity Forums 4 months, 2 weeks ago
I agree. slow and steady. Just keep working on slowly and gently stretching them out. It will happen over time. It’s not something you can rush. Use a foam roller after your workouts. That will help ease them and help them heal up faster to be ready for your next workout.

So many of my joints pop and I’ve been cracking my knuckles since before I was 10. Is it bad for me? Am I going to get arthritis or something?
