Wow, that sounds ambitious, I'm impressed! I don't have any training advice, but really enjoyed driving that route :)

Agree, calamine, cortizone cream and try taking some benadryl per Web MD. Good luck.

My husband loves my salt & pepper hair and I get a lot of compliments on it in general. I have short hair and don't want to commit to coloring it every 3 weeks. The only problem is that people sometimes assume I'm older because of it.

I can't speak from personal experience, but I did see a documentary about some athletes that had what they considered faster and better recoveries after surgery using PRP. According to the medical journals, it's too early to tell if it's effective, but the results have been promising. Good luck with the surgery and wishing…

Congrats! What an attractive couple you two are!

You look lovely, enjoy buying some new, tiny clothes!

Welcome to onederland! Congrats!

Looking good!

I've tried it. I found it in the refrigerated section by the tofu. It doesn't look like or taste like wheat pasta. It has a pretty mild taste and has the texture and appearance of rice noodles. So if you like rice noodles in asian dishes like Japanese sukiyaki, Vietnamese pho, or phad Thai, you might give them a try. They…

I've found that eating more vegetables, fruit, beans and nuts help me feel full longer. Also, I drink water every time I'm bored or I think I'm hungry to make sure it's not just thirst. Hang in there!

So awesome! Planks are probably the most difficult exercise for me.

Fruit, veggies, nuts, beans, milk

My friend has a pair of pugs : Dim sum and Mu shu:laugh:

I had a foot and ankle surgeon comment on my muscular calves. He said calf size is mostly genetic and that it is difficult for people with scrawny calves to build them or for people with larger calves to shrink them. That being said, when I lost weight previously my calves did shrink a few inches due to fat loss and…

I found my nails got stronger and less brittle after I started taking vitamin D3.

Best of luck to you, you can do it!

Congrats! That's awesome!

So happy for you!:drinker:

Congrats on fitting into those smaller sizes! Can't wait to join you in getting the XXL's and XL's out of my life!

My brother really liked the "Power of 10". It emphasizes raising and lowering heavy weights very slowly. If you want something different, he also likes "Miracle Seven", but it doesn't require weights, it's all isometric exercises. Another interesting book I like is "You Are Your Own Gym", again no weights, you use your…

Hi all, I'm Heather and I just started on E2L a couple of weeks ago. I'm pretty happy with this plan as that I love fruit and veggies and was vegan for many years until an obesity specialist told me to eat more protein. I did lose weight on his plan, but I felt like an airhead and was hungry all of the time :( Although it…

Congrats on getting fitter and firmer!
