He has been gone since October on the Gulf Coast, and I'm in Northern IL, and I'd love to look better when he does return, but mostly I just want to be healthy. I desperately need more…
  • I'm in! I started this really eager in Jan, even got my sisters and a few friends on board. We all did well right away, but interests has waned.

  • I just started it today also! Every week, I plan to work out on M-W-F, and do circuit strength training on the other days, with Sundays off. Didn't know there was an app...

  • I put on two sports bras, which seem to help with some bouncing of my 38Ds
  • There is a difference between natural sugars and refined processed sugars. If you are getting it from healthy natural sources, than don't sweat it if you exceed your limit. But yes, if you hit a plateau, then try cutting them out for a week or two should help the weight loss to keep happening.
