thanks id love to have a motivation friend on here. are you losing more weight or inches and going down in sizes?

nothing is a no no. you need to make sure you are eating and logging the correct portions for any food you eat no matter if its the typical healthy food or something fried and or greasy. if you dont have the available calories to eat it then go do enough exercise to account for the extra calories your going to or already…

I think it really should say real women can have curves. Society for years has shown us models of stick figure anorexic looking women in magazines trying to tell us that is what beauty is. The reality is every woman is beautiful in one way or another and you don't have to be a toothpick to be beautiful. When my husband and…

i am also a scale worshipper , i weigh myself 2 or 3 times a day but i only count the first one of the day right before i eat or shower as the correct weight . i hate that i worship the scale because if the number isnt steadily going down at a rate i like i get really cranky and nasty and i get in this bad funk thats hard…

The best time to weigh is first thing in the morning after you have had a bowel movement but before you eat or shower and you should be nude . This is your true weight.

I was watching the doctors tv show yesterday and they said right after your workout the best thing to drink is cinnamon chocolate milk . Another thing they said is when on the snack isle as the store stock up on popcorn, dark chocolate and any kind of nuts with that being said I had chocolate covered almonds last night for…

I lost 4 lbs the first week and exercised the he'll outta myself week two I went up 1 1/2 lbs and was ticked off so I tried working out so much doing dancing/ aerobics I hurt my knee so I took a few days off then…

I'm sticking to my calories I don't usually eat my exercise calories back but somedays when were out all day and have to eat out I might use up 100 or 200 of my calories but I'm burning up 1000 to 1200 a day usually .…

I've never heard of it but if it works then I'm totally up for it
-
I use just dance 3 and dance central 1 and 2 and I don't go by the game I log it as aerobics and as long as my heart rate is up it's high impact and log for how ever many minutes you did it , this seems to be working for me so far. I can't wait to try the new country dance that comes out on Tuesday for the kinect

ThE rule I stick by for weighing is it's always first thing in the morning before you eat, drink, exercise, or shower. It must always be naked and using the same scale and right after you have had a bowel movement. This way there is nothing adding to your weight and I feel it's my truest possible weight.
