I'd love to join! Thanks.

You are NOT alone. My stomach farts too. And, to top it off, I have a two year old that exclaims "oooooh, you farted!" every time it does.

I have an '06 Dodge Durango. It has TONS of room, lots of options for the price, but it gets terrible gas mileage. The best vehicle I've ever owned was a Nissan Murano but we needed a third seat and a mini van was SO not an option ;)

1. Drink as much water as you can every single day. I drink a gallon a day and I've had great success! 2. Eat the exercise calories, but make them count with nutritious foods. 3. Let people know what you're trying to do so it's more "official" and it will be harder to quit. 4. Make room in your calorie "budget" for those…

I've lost a small bail of hay and a Guinea Pig!!!

Thank you!! I always wanted to read about BUSHcrickets and their huge balls. ;)

8729 + 41 = 8770

I agree. Anything size 16 and up in WOMENS clothes is plus size. I started this with 47" hips and was juuuuust about ready to have to shop the plus size section and I've worked my *kitten* off to get to 42" hips (baby got back) and a size 10-12 and I'd say I'm average now. You are soo not plus size!

Have you been drinking your water? Also, make sure you're eating enough calories. It will happen!!! Good luck!

Mmmm...donuts.. Haha just kidding. That takes alot of strength! Good for you! ;o)

Oh yes, I've now lost a little over 28 lbs but I still wear most of the same clothes. Yes, they're looser but I would think 28 lbs lost would be at least a size or two. Still at a 14. =( I have been waiting for people to mention that I look different but nobody has. Oh well, just makes me want to work harder! The scale is…

Do it!

I'm a stay at home mom too and having anyone watch my kids so I can go to a gym is not an option. I would suggest taking walks with your kids, running stairs if you've got them, or purchasing/ renting workout dvd's. Netflix has alot of different ones and I pay like $16/ month. You could actually start off by purchasing "30…

You sound so much like me it's kinda scary. I avoid people, I'm paranoid, and I don't let anyone take/see any pictures of me. I seem to be a MAGNET for uncomfortable chat sessions in public. Why is it not ok to be shy anymore? You have to be diagnosed with a mental illness just because you like to keep to yourself?!

I was thinking the same thing when I watched Jillian last night. Everything I read says 2 lbs. a week is the max to lose safely but on these shows they lose 5 times that sometimes. It makes me less excited about losing 1-2 lbs in a week when I see that!

The best advice I can give you is to drink LOTS of water. It helps so much. Next, switch things up day to day or every few days. Don't do the same exercises and eat the same food all the time. Keep your calories in your weight loss range but try to have different totals. Lastly, don't deprive yourself of the things you…

Thank you so much. You all gave me just what I needed. I will try switching things up because I do relatively stick to the same plan every day. I appreciate you taking the time to respond. Best of luck to you all!!

Level 1, Day 3....check! (ouch)

!

Level 1, Day 2 completed....and my legs are BURNING!

Day 1, Level One completed. Feeling good!!

My DVD will be here tomorrow. I would love to joing everyone!! Good luck to us all!

My face has also cleared up since starting this program. I drink about 10 cups of water a day and watch the sugar. As far as products go, I use Clean and Clear Persa Gel 10 and it works really well. It's so important not to touch your face too. I was always told that but never took it seriously until I realized that my…

Doesn't taking green tea extract have the same benefits as drinking green tea?

I am also "thick around the middle" and to take away from that, I would definitely recommend an empire waist dress with a plunging neck line and a great bra to get 'em pushed up but be careful not to get one that's too tight or you might make back boobies too :/ I have big arms so I try to wear sleeves with alot of…
