I would just make a Word document with the recipes in them. There's no option on this site to save recipes, but at least this way you can just copy-and-paste them to a place you can find on your desktop.

^^This. I sit in a cool bath of black tea and then press cool, damp black tea bags on the worst spots.

I'm 31, 5'2" and new friends are always welcome. Feel free to add me!

I can only think of one time that someone tried to talk to me at the gym. I had my earbuds in, so I was annoyed that he interrupted me. And I've noticed guys staring while I was in the free weight area, but that's all I can think of. While it would be flattering to have someone hit on me at the gym, I tend to be completely…

For my health. And because I absolutely love the energy I have after a great workout.

<quote>The below is a copy and paste cuz I get that question a lot, lol.... hope it helps you :) I myself never thought I would be able to get rid of my belly until I read an article which talked about the importance of getting off the floor to accomplish stomach fat burn - at first I was thinking these people are crazy…

Just tell them that while they might look nice this summer and blow up again this winter, you're going to look awesome for the rest of your life. Then take a big bite of whatever it is you're eating and flash them a big smile.

I have three, but only have pictures of two of them. One is a tiny portion of a quote from Sylvia Plath's The Bell Jar. "I took a deep breath and listened to the old bray of my heart: I am, I am, I am." The other is my mother's portrait, so I've included a picture of the tattoo and the original photo (my mom was in her…

Absolutely agree with this. My 25 pound mini schnauzer is a nightmare to keep still.

Curvy. "Normal" would look horrible on my frame. Athletic would be a little scary I think, but I do want some nice muscle tone.

I have a few friends who call me Sar. It only confuses me because Sarah is pretty short already.

You look amazing!

Good luck! I don't have much money at the moment, but I gave you a few dolllars because I know from personal experience (I've done the diabetes walk near me for the last two years in my own mom's memory) that every dollar helps. It's great that you're doing this and your mom is beautiful.

Hey everyone! My first daily post. :) This morning I woke up to the worst possible thing I could imagine: a broken Keurig. I stopped at Dunkin' Donuts for an extra large coffee on the way into work, but it was too hot to drink until more than halfway through my commute (and I have an hour drive). I'm still feeling pretty…

Hey everyone! I'm Sarah. I'll be 31 next week. I managed to wreck my diet over the course of a few years and many excuses. Working full-time (desk job) and going to grad-school part-time really caused a problem, but I've yo-yo'ed weight-wise since graduating in 2009. In 2010 my mom passed away from complications due to…

Hot wings. I allow myself to eat junk every Saturday. I've been craving wings for about 3 weeks and just let myself have them for lunch. Going to need to go for a ridiculously good workout in order to have any calories available for dinner, but they were soooo worth it. :)

It's abuse. You need to leave! You deserve sooo much better.

^bump

Bump. Need to make this.

I've gotten that quite a few times. I usually tell people that I'm doing this for me and not anyone else. I want to be comfortable in my own skin. They usually still don't entirely get it, but it confuses them enough to shut their trap.

Congrats! That is awesome!

Thanks everybody!

I would. Just because someone isn't right for someone else doesn't mean they wouldn't be right for me. But I would certainly be curious about the reasons behind the divorce and if there are children involved.

I don't go out of my way to set a splurge day each week, but I find that I'm most social on Saturdays and I end up blowing my calories those days. I do try to make sure I get in a good workout before doing something where I suspect I'll consume a lot, but I don't beat myself up over it if it doesn't happen. I just get…

I've got a mini schnauzer named Logan. :)

Research scholarships and APPLY for them. Believe it or not, you aren't going to be friends with the same people 15 years from now. You'll be shocked when you get to college and discover that guys think you're hot. Don't let that distract you from studying. And whatever you do: don't limbo freshman year of college. It'll…

Apple. My gut will be the last thing to go. It has never been flat, either, and I would love to figure out if there's a way to make that happen.

It baffles me that someone paid for that research.

Any chance you could fit in a workout after work? Keeping busy with evening workouts is usually what helps me.

Once. Not the way to go about getting my attention. I just ignored it.
