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 Do I want omega 3 in my eye pills? in the forum Supplements Reviews 6 months ago
They’re pretty dry right now because of seasonal allergies. Will they help with that?

I noticed that some eye pills have omega 3 in them and some don’t. Do I need the extra? If I get the omega ones, will it give me fish burps? I hate that about regular omega-3 capsules!

Keep going, keep practicing. You’ll get there! Walk at times if you need to. You’ll build up your stamina and endurance!

Have you been sleeping well? Is it helping, if so?

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic Is hand lotion considered a supplement? in the forum Supplements Reviews 7 months, 1 week ago
No. I really don’t think so. It could be a topical treatment, I guess. But not a supplement in the same sense that you’d take eye supplements or vitamin C tablets or whatever.

I’d say a calorie/nutrition tracker, fitness tracker, good athletic shoes and a grocery list with the ingredients for all the healthy meals you plan to make.

Do you still need to take it in the summer if you spend a lot of time outside? Don’t you get it from sunlight that way?

Use a foam roller after a hot shower or bath. Do this daily. You can use calf sleeves too.

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic is it better to drink decaf? in the forum Health Forums 8 months, 2 weeks ago
I don’t think there’s any problem with having caffeinated coffee. There are benefits to decaf and benefits to caffeine. It’s not going to decide much overall unless you really overdo it.

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic shoveling snow for weight loss in the forum Weight Loss Programs 9 months ago
Hopefully snow isn’t a problem for you anymore, or at least not much longer! Soon you can be angry with your fitbit for not reading your lawn mowing haha. Mine actually interprets that as cycling, which I find very funny.

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic why is my eye twitching in the forum Health Forums 9 months, 2 weeks ago
I’ll update. For now, I’ve cut my caffeine in half and it’s not as bad as it used to be. It’s still there, but it’s off and on, instead of nearly all the time. It’s a lot better. I’m going to keep easing off caffeine until i’m not taking it anymore and hopefully I’ll figure out how to get more sleep.

I’ll try cutting down on caffeine. If that doesn’t work, I’ll bite the bullet and go to my doctor. Seems like such a silly thing to see a doctor for, but it really needs to go away now.

Penny4Thoughts started the topic why is my eye twitching in the forum Health Forums 10 months, 1 week ago
My eye has been twitching since the end of november. It happens all the time throughout the day. It’s not constant, in that there are pauses in it, but it just keeps coming back. Lately, it’s even more severe and the twitches are so distracting that I will lose my train of thought if I’m speaking. I can’t really see any of it in the mirror and…[Read more]

Drink lots of water. I agree with the supplements suggested above, but make sure you’re drinking water. Hydration will be key.

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic Anyone want to buddy with me over the holidays? in the forum Weight Loss Programs 10 months, 4 weeks ago
Is this happening? I’m willing to do this now. I didn’t sign in during the holidays and didn’t see that this might be starting. Who else is in?

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic Running is keeping my mood better in the forum Activity Forums 11 months, 2 weeks ago
Is it still working for you? I’m so exhausted these days it’s nearly impossible to get motivated to move like that. I feel like I’m just making it through with everything I have to do. The thought of burning even one minute of energy doing something that isn’t on my to-do list would be impossible

Keep it up. You can do this. post here if you need a bit of motivation, because I know there will always be people here to cheer you on. This time of year really can be so hard, but you’ve got the best attitude to get through it at your best. Remember that it’s okay if you don’t feel full of sunshine every minute. It doesn’t mean that won’t…[Read more]

Penny4Thoughts replied to the topic are orthotic shoe insoles worth it? in the forum Gear Reviews 1 year ago
You might or might not need them. ask a good podiatrist, not just some store that sells them and is all about insole sales. Make sure to follow the directions to get used to them. That’s very important because you’ll just hurt yourself otherwise.

Thanks! I’ll definitely try them both when there’s a sale on them so I can compare. I’ll try to remember to post here about which one I like.

Thanks! Just saw they are both on sale. Might try them both and wait for the next sale to stock up on whichever one ends up being best!
