Is that code for "I stand in front of a mirror and watch myself dance?"

I'll carry a big enough purse so I don't have to buy water. We never get anything from concessions. I'm happy with my water and a piece of gum.

^That... except I just buy the big container and weigh out 1 oz. They're so good that sometimes I'll have 2 ounces in a day.

I'm a legal secretary who's over qualified for her job. I have a degree in Paralegal studies... I just haven't found a Paralegal position that isn't looking for a million years experience. Maybe I'll bypass the paralegal part and go to law school. :P

LOL!! I was thinking the exact same thing. I'm pretty sure my cats think I'm nuts.

This made me think of peopleofwalmart.com. OMG! That stuff is both gross and hilarious! I'll agree a muffin top in never flattering. Just suck it up and buy some bigger pants... Also, wearing pants that tight has to be ridiculously uncomfortable.

1. What HRM do you use? Polar FT4 2. Why did you choose it? It had the features I needed and it was the most affordable 3. What do you like best about it? The fabric chest strap. My previous Polar HRM had a platic one that wasn't very comfortable 4. Is there anything you think it's missing/have you had any problems with…

I swear my cats only sleep during the day while I'm at work. They do come into the room that I workout in, but stay out of my way. The only time they get close is when I'm on the yoga mat on the floor and that's one headbutting me to move so he can sit on the mat. :P

I make mine a bunch of different ways. I do the overnight oats with 1/2 C chocolate almond milk and add a sliced banana when I serve it. It's great in the summer when I don't want to eat a hot breakfast. When I make it hot, I use the same spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, the smallest pinch of ground cloves, and a dash of vanilla…

Honestly, I wouldn't worry over .2 pounds. It could be some water retention. Also, your body weight can fluctuate 2-3 pounds from one day to the next. Example... This morning I weight 2 pounds more than I did yesterday. However, I went out to dinner last night and didn't drink enough water yesterday. So, I know it's not a…

Generally, when I have oreos, I have to have 4.... or 6... 2 just won't cut it.

I went with my friend to her gym to check out a new class they were offering. The instructor said that you could burn up to 800 calories in the one hour class... Well, I already knew what 800 calories burned in an hour would feel like to me. I walked out of there thinking "there's no ****ing way I burned 800 calories." I…

I miss my B Cup girls. When I gained weight, I went to a rather healthy C cup. One night I was lying in bed on back, and it felt like they were up to my chin trying to suffocate me. I was like "What the heck is that?!" :P I'm used to them now, but I'm glad they're shrinking. I might consider a lift when I get older, but…

I miss my Jersey home.... Probably because I lived with my parents and didn't have to pay the ridiculous Camden County property taxes.:P I belong right where I'm at. Close enough to family that it's easy to visit. Far enough from family that they're not just dropping my unannounced.

* The top of my sheet and my bedspread have to line up when I go to sleep. * When I hand write something, I will re-write it if I don't like how it looks. * I will edit a blog post just to put in missing punctuation even though the people reading it wouldn't notice. * My toe nails always have to be painted. * Drawer and…

I wouldn't worry about it too much. If you see a gain, you know why. If you don't, you'll be relieved. If you lose, you'll be super excited. Just know that you shouldn't do it every weekend or it will set you back eventually. It's the progress over time that matters not the day-to-day or the week-to-week fluctuations.

^That... I've been a range of different weights. There were my serious dancing days when I was trim and fit. I wasn't one of those uber skinny dancers. Then, there was the weight that I was after I lost the weight that I gained after I quit dancing. My goal is somewhere between those two numbers. Just find a weight that…

^That's a good question. But if you're asking because you want to have a drink, try vodka and club soda with lime. You can also try some flavored vodka if you want a fruitier flavor. Stay away from tonic though. It adds calories and sugar to the drink. The biggest hit when drinking for me is that I get snacky when I'm…

You can do a few things: If you've been doing the same workout routine, you might need to change it up. You can try higher intensity workouts, heavier weights, or just throw in some new exercises that work your muscles in a different way. Do you eat back your exercise calories? If not, try eating some of them or all of…

Dove is the only deodorant that doesn't make my underarms breakout. I use the regular cool cucumber scent. If regular deodorant doesn't work for you, I'd try the clinical strength ones. The really do work better.

YUM!! My favorite! If you can stick with having just one serving, have some.

At my last job, I was leaving a voicemail for our foreman on his cell phone and said "love you" at the end... Totally embarrasing. Thankfully he never said anything about it!

I'm in week 3 of the Prep Schedule. I have some knee issues and wanted to ease into it. Have you calculated your target caloric intake using the formula in the guidebook? I did that and it gave me more calories to eat. So, I changed my goal here to lose 1/2 pound a week and I eat all my exercise calories and that's pretty…

Or they're someone like me who can't imagine juggling three small children and think you're nuts. LOL!! I never wear my wedding rings when I'm working out. My husband doesn't always wear his ring when he goes out so I doubt he cares. I just feel bad for those single people who waste their "good" pick up lines on a person…

For me, tracking my food is the most important thing to do. When I track accurately and stay at my daily caloric target, I lose weight. If you can't always be on the computer or don't have a smart phone to track, get a small notebook. You need to know how much your consuming. For alot of stuff, I'm pretty good at…

My husband points them out to me. At first it bothered me, but after a while I realized that he's coming home with me. It's like window shopping. Sure it's nice to look at it, but that doesn't mean I'm going to buy it. So, when he points one out, I give him my honest opinion. Sometimes I agree and sometimes I don't. It's…

I've been that girl... My poor husband has put up with alot of my *kitten*. It was mostly during the time when I had a very stressful job. It's a miracle he didn't divorce me. I was always miserable. It doesn't happen as much now that I have new job. However, I apologize after the fact when I realize that I'm the one being…

My husband does that too. There were chips in my house, but I ate them. :P It did take me over a month to eat them.

Congrats on the loss so far! 24 pounds is great! Everyone loses weight differently. It just so happens that you're losing from the top first. Keep working on it. Eventually your body will be like "OK! Time to take the weight off the bottom." Just be patient. You'll get there!

I'm not single, and haven't been for a looooong time. I will say that I did marry my best friend. However, he wasn't my best friend when we started dating. Our relationship went from awkward first date to "there's no one else I want to share my whole life and dirty secrets with." This guy obviously doesn't deserve you.…
