We lived in Brandon, FL for 4 years & I loved it! I just missed my family & we moved back to New Orleans. The area has grown a lot and still is.....check out the Hillsborough school website to get an idea of openings http://www.sdhc.k12.fl.us/ :)

I loved my mio :) I got a bodybugg from my DH for Christmas though

Um....all of my kids read labels. Except for the 4 year old lol I teach them about the nutrition side of things & doesn't have anything to do with calories. Ridiculous? I think not :P

A lot of good stuff has been said already..... I just want to chime in another vote for leading by example. We really don't keep junk food at home and instead we will go out for a treat and eat it outside of the house :). I know you don't want to embarrass her by bringing up the sneaking but it can be brought up in a way…

We just got rid of our wii ;) The kinect is awesome & picks up more than the wii ever did (if you are concerned about scores).

I'd throw it out...cake is something I'd binge on

I made myself a top priority & committed to it :)

I love the runtones....they are so comfortable! It doesn't do what it claims though lol

I got spoiled this year with an iPad, kindle, bodybugg, and Dance Central for the kinect :)

Middle school? lol

I was a 42DDD and now a 34C :)

He's a great guy other than the Penn State/Philly Eagle fan thing lol I was happy for him when his team won....we live near New Orleans & he would have heard all about it at work lol It's bad enough that my kids have Tiger (& Saints) fever ;)

You probably feel like LSU people do when Saban left lol

lol wishful thinking on your part....y'all are Tiger Bait!!

My husband is a Penn State fan...you should have heard the battle between us when they played LSU last year lol

I'm a huge LSU fan! I'm an alumni too. We had a cringe worthy season this year & I'm happy to see they made it to a bowl game ;) Geaux Tigers!!!!

My oldest has PDD-NOS and is on concerta and intuniv. He's on 36mg of the concerta but it wears off after lunch so we'll be going back to his doctor next week to see what we can do. My son is also in behavior therapy. When he first went on the medication it took a few days for us to see a change. He's been through Daytrana…

Ah....loose skin. I have some but it was never something I freaked out over. Loose skin depends on a lot of factors (how old you are, how long you've been obese, if you were a smoker & genetics)....it's a wait and see thing Focus on getting healthy. It's easier to hide extra skin than it is extra fat. If you can bear the…

I love it so much that I teach it! The pool I teach at is one that can hold about 15 people so with that restricted of an area I can use music & not worry about them not hearing me (the bigger the area the louder the music & more the instructor has to compete with it, kwim?)

Anything by Ellen Barrett, my Hoopnotica DVDs, bellydancing, & Zumba :)

She should have at least showed you a sample menu :) I'm taking my personal trainer certification next month. My advice? Shop around. Just the fact that you are posting your concerns here seems like you don't feel comfortable with her.

Mine is linked to FB & only receive positive feedback but then again if they are going to be negative then I usually delete them from my friend's list ;) I don't put up with emotional vampires lol

I have a great blog about loose skin ;) I've only done 3 entries so it's easy to find lol

It depends on what you are doing....for Zumba and other dancing I use converse, lots of jumping & movement I have reebok running tones, running I use vibram :) If you looking for a running/jogging shoe I recommend being fitted at a running store!

I reached my original goal of 150lbs lost in February of last year (so almost a year lol) & after maintaining decided a couple of months ago to go a little lower. :)

If everyone could manage self control I don't think we'd be here....be a little sympathetic ;)

If I eat them it's no more than half of them...it really depends on how much real hunger I have. :) Why are you eating only 1200 at your current weight? You aren't eating enough if you are feeling like you are. (I'm in the school of eating the most calories you can & still lose weight...at your weight I was eating about…

Welcome!!! It will be a long road but you will have a lot of support here! :)

Taking the time to chew my food & keeping an open mind :)

I practice my Zumba rounds at home (one of the classes I teach is aqua Zumba)... My kids love to do it with me! ;)
