  • I am currently a size 10 and have been for the past 5 years. Based on my heigh and weight, my BMI indicates that I am overweight. One of my closest friends growing up is a size 10 as well.

  • I dropped my ipod while on the treadmill. I bent down to pick it up and both the ipod and I flew off the back. This was at a college gym surrounded by sorority girls.

  • I weigh weekly at the same time. I have heard that it's best to weigh in the morning just because you're not weighing everything you've eaten. I weigh in Monday mornings when I wake up.

I tried 30DS 2 years ago and gave up because I wasn't motivated enough to let go of bad habits. I am hoping to lose 25 pounds in the next few months. Even if the scale doesn't budge…

  • I really enjoy mexican foods. This week, I cut up tenders into 1 inch pieces. I boiled them in rotel and seasoned blackbeans for about 30 minutes. I left the juice in the rotel, but I drained the black beans. You can add corn or other veggies if you like. The first night I strained out a scoop to put on a whole wheat…
