It looks like a boneless pork chop!

When I lost my Grandma -who was just like my Mom- to cancer suddenly in October it took all my happiness and sucked it into a black hole somewhere and I could barely function. I am so sorry for the loss of your son but I am so happy to see you trying to rise above the grief. If you need supportive friends please feel free…

I think calisthenics is a good one and maybe for her higher intensity ones you could do like plyometrics? :) I love her videos but I can't do them right now because of a bum knee,boo!:sad:

Awww I loved this and I think I do the exact same thing with food. Must remember to take the 3 minutes for myself!

Well I basically just add my foods manually and then in the note section- in the food diary- I add my points. :) That is basically the only way you can really keep track of your points while using MFP, I think anyways!

Ewww,this totally happened to me when I had the brilliant idea of adding it to my a.m coffee. Effing disgusting! So now I just blend it with ice and vanilla whey...totally yummy. :)

They contain loads of fiber and make you fart.....they're greeeeeat! :p

Yah I am struggling a little since I am trying to eat as healthy as possible but this is my first week so I am sure as time goes it will get a little harder. :) Thanks and congrats on breastfeeding...I sometimes miss bf'ing my little one!`

In my experience it's just water weight! Usually the day after I am done with my monthly the extra weight is gone. I would say 211 is probably your 'real' weight. :)

Your arms look so much thinnner too! Trip out :) You look amazing!

Oh, I used to live in IB and my sisters and I would ride our bikes along that trail almost every day in the Summer! :)

You could also do the tide pools in Point Loma but it's way South of Oceanside but still kind of cool to see. There are the seals at the Children's Pool in La Jolla but parking can be a pain in the *kitten*, if you are patient then it's always cool to see and free! Balboa Park is massive and could give you a calorie burn…

I'm still stuck on the visual of the headline!

This shizz cracked me up!! Perhaps you're not walking fast enough?! ;)

This and Brass Monkey and being 13.....my friends had to stick me in the shower with my clothes on and I kept falling down. So awful :(

Feel free to add me chica...I am in a different stage in my life but have been at this for over 6 months so if you are looking for encouraging friends than feel free to add me!! :) Good luck on your journey!

I have read that some universitirs have them as well but if you aren't coming up with any hits on the internets then ot might not be available in your area. Have you searched surrounding cities? Also we have kaiser insurance and they have a wellness center that does nutrition counseling and bod pod testing. Good luck on…

lol I used to be obsessed with tae bo, i am kind of sad it went out of style but still will pull out my tapes and work it tae bo style. it really is a great work out! :)

Mexican or philipino?

I am not expert but I am having a hard time believing that 1500 is considered maintenance for you! That is only 200 calories above your bmr and should technically still be eating at a deficit.

How does this make him a turd...what he said is 100% true.You can be physically attracted to someone and know that you would never cheat on them because a true relationship is deeper than a physical attraction. :noway: :grumble:

saddle bags and booty! i really wish it was my stomach and back fat though!

My mom didn't gain much at all during her pregnancies and went right back to her 'normal' body but I was a different story. I had crazy stretch marks and didn't really work out. Fear of a changing body is normal with your pregnancy but eating right and working out during pregnancy is the best way to ensure you don't gain…

This post cracks me up! I totally hide my undies and make sure my clothes are neatly folded on the chair :) No stinky feet and shaved!

fenugreek,oats and loads of water too! congrats on your new baby :)

I think capris and tank tops are you best option if you are really self conscious! Last time I ran in shorts I ended up chafing and it hurt really bad so the compression shorts under running shorts is an awesome idea. Happy trails! :)

Do you know your body fat percentage? I have read that the katch mccardle method of calculating bmr is more accurate. Good luck!!

Good luck! I am on Week 8 and use the Russel Ullrey's podcast from the Couch25k website and love them. It starts off with him talking about what happens in that specific week and then music and then him telling you when to walk and run! It takes all the guess work out of it :) I was able to download the podcasts right onto…

Well thanks for the words of encouragement but I'm really surprised none of you went with the kick in the *kitten*!! :laugh: I think writing this post helped me out because I got up and did week 8! Onto Day 2 friends :) Thanks for caring! :heart: :flowerforyou: edited: for horrible spelling!

That short shorts and chubby thighs while running=burning skin! OUCH! :sad: :sad:
