  • I have the Fitbit One and I LOVE IT! I accidentally washed it this weekend and IT STILL WORKS that is an awesome product, in my opinion! It does track stairs, and you're right stairs burn more calories than walking alone.
  • i found the dandelion tea bags in the organic section of Kroger (i'm in the US) for $5 for 16 bags. Definitely cheaper than the $12, it's worth checking the organic section of a local grocery store.
  • Doctors do NOT necessarily recomment prescriptions solely on your needs.

  • I have been working on morning trips to the gym. I am NOT a morning person but I feel fantastic when I manage to squeeze in a workout before work.

I just pull out what I want to eat that night and let my kids choose what they want (from the choices I cooked the…
  • Hill Sprints and a cardio interval of jumping jacks, squats, crunches and push ups 5x.... Usually by the end of this combo (intervals and hill sprints) I am DRENCHED in sweat and burn about 8-900 calories in an hour and a half. LOVE IT!
  • I am doing this in October and I am so freaking excited! My boyfriend and I are both doing it and have been training (running and strength training) and I've been hitting it pretty hard lately. There's nothing like electro-shock therapy to motivate your *kitten* to run!
  • Girl you are not alone on this one! I have anxiety and depression both and was recently prescribed medication that helps oh so much. It definitely affects my diet and exercise, I have days where I just fill like a zombie. For example, Tuesday night I made homemade pizza with my kids and carb overload kicked in. Between…
