You'll Have Less Time Later

Trust me I thought I didn't have time in
college to work out....It is twice as hard
later in life...Make it a lifestyle now.
I worked part time and took full loads
when I was in school I know you feel like
you are incredibly busy...And you no doubt
are but trust me...It gets harder. Try
to get to the gym 3 days a week.

My daughter at 15 is travelling 2+ hours
each way ever day to university (college)
- participates in plays & on the
theatrical society committee etc &
goes to some parties while keeping her
grades up but two things she never gives
way on are
a) a 30 - 45 minute walk at around sunrise
(no matter how late she got to bed!!)
b) some yoga &/or pilates
stretches/exercises/meditation each day.
If she can fit this in I think anyone can
& it helps keep her healthy, her body
toned & fit & strong thereby
helping her to carry the enormous loads of
books up & down the hill (uni is on
the side of a hill!!) not to mention
walking up & down stairs at train
stations!!

Ok, some stairs these stairs are 120 in
one go up a hill plus another couple of
hundred a day & she's running between
lectures - plus carrying a heavy load - I
suggest you try it & then see if it's
no big deal!!
I try to give information based on my
experience or that of others (reality) as
opposed to merely what I have read(may not
be reality).
Also don't assume - my daughter is in fact
far from healthy & far from strong
either emotionally or physically, but she
doesn't give up.

if you know what you had said in your
earlier post then you would understand why
I said your daughter was healthy and
strong, because you stated that. Listen.
Going up stairs with a backback is
something. However apparently it isnt
enough. She is going up stairs and then
sits in a classroom for hours. She is not
raising her heart beat up enough. This
isnt a workout. To see gains you need to
work and run or do stairs as hard as you
can possibly can. Obviously if she is
gaining weight then what she is doing isnt
enough. So stop with all these stairs and
walking.

You choose not to listen - you do not
comprehend & you do not know what you
are talking about - plus this thread was
not started for my daughter & if it
had been I would not want help from
someone like you & with her iq she
would be far less polite in her
description of your mental capabilities
& your advice.

I won a long time ago - probably before
you were even born - I am not debating you
- you aren't worth it - you can't even
stick to the topic & to replying to
the person who asked for help - that would
be too hard for you.

Since it's several posts since I (caps i)
mentioned my daughter I can only assume
that you rae jealous of her iq,
achievements & ability - but that is
your problem no-one else's - so get over
it, get some sort of a life & either
help the psople who come here seeking
help/advice or go somewhere where your
personal inadequacies & lack of self
esteem won't be issues.

Do you have any points that would add to
what flowerpower said to start this
thread?
Such as starting the day with a walk.
Joining a gym (especially if there's one
at your university or college) & use
it.
Walk or ride a pushbike to get around
rather than driving or taking a bus etc
whenever possible.
Doing yoga/pilates or similar which are
great as they can be done indoors in yhour
own time - even if the weather is lousy.

Too Far

Damn! I cant believe this! You two are
worse than my brothers! And thats saying
something!
You both, obviously, have strong opinions,
and thats perfectly fine!
However, speaking as a member of this
board, I for one, think it's gone a bit
far.
I mean, you each have valid points, but
this forum is a site which is supposed to
provide useful and helpful information,
its not a place for heated arguments.
I respect both of ur beliefs, views and
ideas.
Eric16, ur opinions and advise in this
forum is very much appreciated, although I
don’t understand why u have to demean ppl
by name-calling 
“your pathetic” is an insult, not only to
purple333, but also to me. Purple is a
well-respected and valued person on this
board, and in (caps) no way pathetic. I
take great offence.
I hope u resolve ur issues 
peace

Babygurl,
thanks for bringing things back to reality
- although as you can see I had started to
do that in my last post which was "on
topic" re ways to exercise cheaply/freely
& in your own time - I merely asked
eric if he had suggestions relevant to
flowerpots post on this thread - not if he
had advice as - she had not asked for any.

Debate Vs Attack
Posted: 08-04-04 02:44am
|
|
|
|
|
Debate is one thing attacks another.
As to my references to my daughter - I
aslso refer to my husband, son, self &
friends as appropriate on any particular
thread - if my knowledge of what a
particular person has been through, does
or whatever is relevant than I talk about
it, in this case it was my daughter - I
fail to comprehend (hence my suggestion
that you're jealous of her) what your
problem is with me using her experiences
as an example, anymoer than using her or
my experiences re health issues should be
anything other than helpful in other
threads.
I post with information I consider
relevant & helpful & whcih I have
gathered from personal (mine or
others)experience or reading etc in order
to help here or as in this thread to give
insight as to how exercise can be fitted
in.

Attack Me Fine But!!!!!!!!!!!
Posted: 08-04-04 02:52am
|
|
|
|
|
If anyone cares to read eric's first post
it was an attack - no information just an
attack & I was angry beacuse that
attack was directed as much against my
daughter as me. If I choose to use my
daughter as an example in giving
advice/suggestions that is my choice - he
has no right to attack & he had no
basis for an attack especially as he gave
no information or help just attacked??!!
In fact not one of his posts has offered
information but every single one has been
an attack against me & on other
threads he has also attacked others - for
similarly unexplainable reasons.

I see I hit a nerve, attack, attack,
attack.....
I can understand trying to relate
something to somene you know who has the
same problem. However all you stated was
the problem and had no advice to give. It
is a better idea to state that your
daughter has the same problem so and so
and then give usefull advice, not just
explain what she does.
Is it really an attack? I think not. If
you think it is then you need some thicker
skin. I give people advice that works, I
dont talk about how someone I know has
this problem. Dont cry and say I attacked
you. Its called a debate, however it is
already over. If I so called "attacked"
you then you have done the same thing back
to me and im not crying about it.
You people act like there has never been a
disagreement on this board or never a
conflict of thoughts. Did you all just
agree with whatever opinion was posted
first? Well I state my ideas that I know
work wether you like it or not. You dont
agree? Then state why you think my
thought is false and post yours. Then I
might have some respect for you.

if you could "read and comprehend", then
you would know I have given some valid
points to the topic. Go back and read.
Read my posts just before this one and do
the same, and give it up.

9 Posts & This Is All Eric Has!!

"to see gains you need to work and run or
do stairs as hard as you can possibly
can."
"make sure you have an adequate amount of
sleep. We are all ging to be busy and run
out of energy, you have to eat right so
your body has enough energy"
in 9 posts the above is the sum total of
eric's "valid pints to the topic" - hope
it wasn't too big a strain on him.

I do not want to be the only voice here
(but what is needed are voices with actual
opinions not merely insults or incomplete
information) - I have learnt much from
others on ehealth whose experiences &
knowledge have been different to mine -
that is the beauty of this type of forum -
it is only when someone is derogatory to
all & also generally fails to offer
real advice that this forum suffers.
The only one kidding here is
you.............................
