If at first you don't succeed, fix your ponytail and try again.

Sports bras, I buy the ones with padding and adjustable straps so I can replace the paddibg and tighten the straps as I shrink, I've gotten an extra full size out of them this way; just buy the ones that are snug on the loosest adjuatments. Yoga pants: I don't, even when loose - they are still semi see-thru when bent over.…

Mostly woo. The absorption rate is correct, but it takes an average of 8 hours for food to be digested. So you are absorbing nutrients the whole time it's passing through your digestive system. (small intestines do most of the absorption, but not all).

I just use water. As I generally drink it post workout when I'm famished, I just end up chugging it anyways.

The FDA does have a better database, it's just a nightmare to go through. Everything is in single gram or ml, and it's pure alphabetical - by how it's sold. So you can't look up "Honey nut Cheerios", you have to scroll to find "General Mills Honey Nut Cheerios". Fruit and vegetables, same thing. Can't just look up apple,…

Many entries are user created. Often people will use a cup as it's what they are used to regardless of accuracy. Dry/solid foods should always be weighed. The only food I don't weigh out anymore is leafy greens as they are so low in calories that I just use the "eyeball" method, even if I am off by 100g, it's not really…

I do morning cardio. My post jog is a serving of frosted mini wheats. High in fiber, just a bit of sugar. I always have beans, have a pot cooking right now. Pintos are my go to. 1lb beans, 10 jalepenos, 4 large tomatoes, an onion, a few cloves of garlic and 2oz of bacon for a bit of flavor. Salt & pepper.

Oysters are all born male. After about a year most switch to female. After that they can switch back and forth at will.

Approximately 30% of your poop is live bacteria.

Everyone is either a stander or a sitter, not both: butt wiping position. And cannot understand why someone would ever do it differently.

A glass of milk, a cookie, and forced naps in school.... Why, oh why did I complain?!?

Powdered coffee creamer is highly flammable

Salty condoms

Yep. Gentleman looks in good shape. I know how to build a boat and navigate by the stars (thank you weird naturalist grampa!) I'll give directions to get to a better island, St. Barts okay?

Toad in the hole

While we're at it. Do the pineapples in pineapple ice cream count as part of my "5 a day"? Also, is arguing with a 15yr old considered cardio or resistance training?

That's generally what works for me. Although if I know I shouldn't be hungry, I'll have a cup of tea and wait 20 minutes to see if I'm really hungry. Sometimes my stomach must get bored or something.

If that were possible! I'd definitely be in better condition. Hmm, need to make $3000 for a vacation, time to run half a marathon. I know someone's going to want beer this weekend.

That's okay. Cursive is not taught in every school anymore, give it 10 years and us "old" people will be able to communicate in secret writing.

That you kinda freak out doing "normal" things, you weren't able to do because of your weight. 1. Purse across the body and still loose 2. Not worry about chairs with arms 3. Being able to tie your shoes without being in a weird yoga position, nor holding your breath 4. Crossing your legs knee over knee 5. Clothes last…

I got the "OMG, you are hot!" by someone that hasn't seen me in over a year.

Already did that. Was is hard, yes. Did I want to quit, often (but I finally didn't). While I know only one way to make it work long term (2.5 years and counting), I am an expert on a 1000 things that don't. I still need to drop a bit more to get to "normal". 2.5lbs more and I get a huge goal: I will weight what I lost,…

The baby from the cover of Nevermind, is old enough to drink....

You do get what you pay for. Mine has been amazing. If your looking for the best ones, they are going to have at minimum: A bachelor's degree in kinesiology, exercize science and/or physical education. National accredited by the American College of Sports Medicine or other equally rigorous body (ACSM) is pretty much the…

Probably not the treadmill. What it might be is ambiet air temperature and humidity. Many nicer gyms have better air circulation than cheap ones. They also tend to have better air conditioning. Warmer, humid and stale air can affect endurance/performance negatively.

Best detox:. Drink a glass of water, eat normal food (some grilled chicken, roasted potatoes, side garden salad type of food...normal). Your kidneys and liver will do the "detoxing" and your body will eliminate the waste.

The 5lb bag of Haribo sugar free gummies on Amazon has the best reviews on how well it can cleanse your entire digestive track from your stomach to your colon!

Peanut Butter. It's my go-to. Two tablespoons a day to make up some calories.

I have 4 different flavors right now, only two are opened. I just like the variety in something different every month.

And that's why I wipe down everything BEFORE and after I use it. Although I have taken my tank top off on occasion: I tend to sweat a lot and when it gets clingy, it's bothersome while preforming some lifts. I generally wear my sports bra, a tank and soccer shorts (I live in the desert, so 11 months out of the year it's a…
