Cardio is fantastic. Elliptical is my BFF. I force myself to do a little weight training and here's why. Building some lean muscle will help your body burn off the excess fat. I would reconsider your plan and think about adding some light toning and strength building. That's just me though. Only you know what's best for…

We have VERY similar current and goal weights. I currently weigh 151.5 and want to be between 130-125. My wedding is Oct. 6th. Let's team up and tackle this thing together! I'm also freaking out about the dress; I'm terrified of having back fat pouring out of the sides of my strapless dress. EEEK! I log in every time I…

Let's get this, October!

Being stressed out is understandable. You're balancing planning a big event, work, time with your fiance, eating well, exercising, and time with loved ones. That would put a strain on anybody. Not everyone is going to understand the load you are carrying right now. Calling someone a bridezilla is never funny. It's…

I like earbuds that have the wrap-around the ear feature. Totally the best.

My fiance is going to have his attendants wear black suits and white dress shirts. We are going to go pick out ties that coordinate with the wedding colors at the mall or something. The girls are wearing little black dresses. We figured why ask our friends to spend $100 to rent a tux for one night when you can put that…

Hello! I work in a nursing home in Michigan (USA). I currently work in the activities or recreational therapy department, but I've done some social work at the facility as well. I get to have all the fun; we do crafts, movie nights with popcorn, play wii video games, play cards or bingo, and host special events. I really…

I sit on an exercise ball as I do my arm stuff with 8-10 lbs. free weights. I always get confused looks from the frat boy looking weights guys. Nobody bothers me though :-) It makes me work my abs and engage my whole body. I'm usually the only chick who does free weights at my gym. I wish more ladies would value the…

I love me some elliptical too. I usually do 8-10 pound free weights on my arms. I use weight machines for my legs. Let's do this!

Put some fresh blueberries, strawberries, or raspberries in your pancakes when you cook them. Bananas work too. Top with 1 tablespoon of light whipped cream. SO good. It tastes like dessert and you totally don't even need syrup.

Totally! I take Zoloft and Yaz to help balance my hormone levels out and control my mood. I tried just altering my diet and activity levels for awhile, but it wasn't enough for me personally. Exercising before and during my cycle helps so much. Even a light walk makes a big difference. That extra kick of dopamine really…

October 6th! Best date ever :-) I'm currently at 153. I want to reach 130. I've actually already been dress shopping, so I'm kinda worried about how the dress will fit. I ordered down a size. Wish me luck!

Hi zsaoosh! I'm a fall bride; Oct. 6th! A fun DIY idea is submersible LED lights. You can put them in your centerpieces or flower arrangements or whatever. You could find some at Michaels or Joannes. They carry different colors, and I'm pretty sure they have a blue tone one. My future sister-in-law is using them for her…

Kelly Osbourne is my inspiration! She looks great after her weight loss. She's strong and curvy; she looks healthy, not twiggy. Her awesome look and story pump me up. If she can do it, so can I!
