A variation of that name is LEILA (Layla, Laila the spellings are ENDLESS) is becoming VERY VERY popular here in the US. I have FOUR girlfriends & 3-4 different strangers I know of who have named their baby girls Layla.. Its beautiful…

The final straw for me was when I was shopping at a plus sized store (Fashion Bug) and realized that 4X was the biggest size they carried. There was no where to go from there.. I am 33 years old & Id have to be shopping from a catalog catering to 5X+ sized woman.. I never thought it had gotten that bad.. But it was. I took…

I am also with you & Jacki! I LOVE me some Coors Lights.. My husband & I do the same thing on Friday nights.. And I have been thinking how those calories affect my intake.. But like you, after one- I justify it to myself.. Ill do more cardio during the week or Ill walk 2 miles instead of 1.. And when the Coors Lights are…

Same thing- Turned 30 & all of a sudden Id be working out- a little like when I was 22- But this time NOTHING happened! Its 10 X harder after 30 as well as after you have a baby (which I did at 32!) So I have a double whammy. But this site is awesome huh? I can track everything & get support & encouragement from so many.…

Dancing Dreamer- My husband was the exact same way! Even before we were married he would buy me ice creams & cookies & boxes of candy "just because".. And at first I thought it was the sweetest~ until I was 2 sizes larger & counting. Eventually you will have to talk to him abt it. My husband can eat whatever he wants &…

Another option- And a cheap one at that- Is Leslie Sansone DVDs.. She does indoor WALKING & her dvds are fab! I live in New England so I have to find alternative to winter walking~ and she delivers. She is fun, happy & easy to follow- And what workout! Good luck! You can do it!
