On a weekend rehearsal day I will probably burn about 2,777 calories on top of being alive. On a weekday practice/workout session, I'll burn roughly 350. On the rest days, I don't intend on doing too much activity because I need a break or my elbows and knees (or hamstrings) really start screaming. I can't wear a HRM…

Zumba or jumping rope!

Any beginners yoga should help but make sure you have a strap or light band and something stable and block like so you can modify the exercises. There is nothing wrong with modifications and you work on flexibility - so start with a video that includes suggestions or someone doing them.

Bump because I have the same question - except after a while I get blurry eyes....

Walking helps me when I feel bloated and nasty and also a soft belly message.

It's a habit. What worked for me was just sugar from one area at a time. Coffee (cream has a lot of natural sugar) and hot beverages was were I started, I simply didn't add any. Then I cut it from yogurt by stepping back from flavored, to fruit, to vanilla, to plain. Etc. Each step made the next one easier because your…

I eat the full fat plain greek (currently cabot) because its has a great creamy taste. I don't care for the flavor of the low fat, so I mix things in if I get it. I also buy the large container and just dish it out. Less plastic.

This ^ I picked a number not to go over and focus on my fitness level. Right now, I noticed my fitness was slipping so I'm stepping up my game and making sure I eat really well this month. This was probably caused by the holidays, but I'm ok with it because I had fun :) What you "can" eat without gaining is going to change…

Same as many people, I tend to eat a bit of everything. Generally though I like full fat plain yogurt and some sort of fruit and coffee for breakfast. Once a week though I tend to throw it out the window and have a bacon/egg/cheese sandwich or eggs and hashbrowns. unsweetened hot tea and water throughout the day. Lunch can…

Actually - I'd like to start archery (I've been shooting since I was young) but I'm unsure what kind of equipment to start with and its so hard to get service in the stores as a girl sometimes....

I agree!

YUP!:drinker:

Bump for later! I love a muffin occasionally :)

I like avocados and blueberries with a pinch of salt.

I'm 5'2" and 147 and not happy about it. I've always tended to be heavier than I looked so I don't measure by how I look or others think I look more on how I feel. I don't feel good right now. Moving towards it though :) Make sure you think about fitness, bfp and body type. My little sister is the same height but she…

I really like this site - helped alot - http://www.hundredpushups.com/#sthash.jIhldPwa.kGQWKBf0.dpbs

Make sure she is probably hydrated. I crack a lot more when I am not hydrated, just from stretching.

Look online for different types of salads - there has been an explosion of possibilities lately. Recently read one here that seemed really good (Chicken Cheese Crunch) http://fitbie.msn.com/2013/04/03/healthy-salad-recipes?blog_cat=juice-bar

Bump! because I was wondering the same. I tend to bust mine fairly quickly.

Fresh, crusty bread - cause it has to be dipped in something :) Bacon! Booze

I'm a fan of pre-scrambling or frying eggs, adding cheese and veggies of some sort. Then in the morning, I throw them in the pannini press or oven while I shower and get everything else done to get it hot and melty.

I love this blog!

Try smaller portions. I love 99% of food October-January. So I started to see how much of it I really need to eat to feel like I got my fair taste for the season. Denial totally didn't work for me. I also bumped up my exercising to help with work/holiday stress and offset all the noms!

That's an awesome idea!

This.

I take a chewable calcium w. D and a multi-vitamin. I was taking omega fish oil but it gave me a belly ache all the time :/

Also - find balance and variety! On the days I want to eat an obnoxious size breakfast (2 eggs, fruit, some potato & pepper hash or eggs, cheese and bacon) my lunch is big, green and leafy with a bit of cheese thrown in. Other days I take regular oatmeal and mix in some pb, touch of honey and almond slices or berry,…

Hey, I'm 5'1" to 2" and I'm aiming for 125-130, but I've always been on the muscular side until I had to take a break from it all. I'm down from 150, but not near my goal. I've been told I should aim between 110-120 but I've never in my life been that small, and I don't think I'd want to sacrifice strength for it.

I'm on a different one and I can't seem to kick it either! In fact, I'm at my heaviest now that I've start BC. ... (I was down 10 lbs before starting it now I'm up 10 plus the 10 I lost).
