  • If you're working out, then you're just gaining new muscle :) Though its frustrating to see the scale going up when you want it to go down, its still a good thing because you're replacing fat with muscle which weighs more. Hope this helps :) "Gaining of Muscle Mass - For beginners, gaining weight while exercising and…
  • I have over 200 lbs that I need to/want to lose. I have a hard time staying on track and staying motivated. I do really well for a few weeks and then I stop logging into the site. It's hard to stay on track. I even got one of my best friends and one of my sister-in-laws to join the site and I still have a hard time staying…
  • I'm glad I found this post. I have some songs to check out :) I really like the following: Uprising - Muse Kryptonite - 3 Doors Down Tore My Heart - Oona Garthwaite (a shorter song but I really like it) Sweet Dreams - Eurythmics Poker Face - Lady GaGa Sunglasses at Night - Corey Heart Love Game - Lady GaGa One Way or…
  • I too would say to do it however it works best for you. I've been trying to walk every day with a friend or two and right now I can only handle walking around the block once. I want to do it twice but my back just won't let me. So, what I want to try to start doing is walking twice a day with a few hours in between each…
  • I kinda felt the same way at first but now I think it motivates me to actually do some exercise because then I get to eat more, I'm just trying to make healthier choices with what I eat :) I am also noticing that I am able to do more physically. Small amounts as it may be, I know that will increase the more I get active. I…
  • Omg... these sound so yummy! I LOVE banana bread but I wonder if these would be healthier than the recipe I have? I have been struggling with figuring out the nutrition facts for things I make. Would you just add all the nutrition facts for each ingredient together and then divide the totals by the number of servings? If…
  • Absolutely!! I am gonna have my friend help me take my measurements this weekend. If I didn't drop any pounds, I likely dropped in inches so it helps keep the frustration down when you don't lose any pounds. From what I have learned, you should weigh yourself once a week (same day of the week/around the same time each…
  • I think Leslie Sansone's Walk from Home videos are great! I break a sweat and feel like I've gotten a good work out every time I do them :) She even has a one mile walk in like 15-20 minutes too! http://www.walkathome.com/
  • I have a bad back and bad knees so I have to be really careful about how long I do things. I have been going on a walk around my block with friends for a couple of days (and we're going to continue this M-F every week) and then I have a Gazelle at home. I can only get around the block once right now (and I think it's a…
  • I like this. It gave me some ideas on a few meals I could have :) Here is what I had today (Friday)... Breakfast Home Made Turkey Wrap's With Lettuce, 1 Wrap 3 Cups of Water Lunch 2 Cups of Water Subway Melt 6" and Orchard Chicken Salad 6" (I got the foot long melt & my friend got the chicken foot long but then she wanted…
  • If you are in UT, I would recommend Unhinged Tattoos‎; 3040 South Washington Boulevard, Ogden, UT 84401 | (801) 625-0233‎. They did mine and I absolutely love it! I only have one because I do not have a high pain threshold either but they were amazing. I plan on going back to them for any future tattoos I may get (I want…
  • Way to go Dasha!! That's awesome! Wii is something that we'd like to get sometime when we can afford it. I can't wait for the day that I can just keep up with my hubby when we go for a walk :) Keep up the good work girl!
