I exercise usually in the morning before my shower, but if I feel like doing a little extra throughout the day I'll do some lunges or some squats or even some crunches or pull ups.... I figure every little bit helps even if I'm not breaking a sweat!! but you really do need to work it in to get your heart rate up at least a…

thank you :) ditto to all other moms out there! Have a great mothers day!

running/jogging is one of the best ways to get rid of belly fat.... like the person said before me... your body will take the path of least resistance to burn the fat so you need to just keep burning and itll come off!

I did this... but I'm like the girl on the slimquick commercial who is like "my husband cut out soda and lost 20 pounds.... I cut out soda and lost nothing!" I seriously did not lose a single thing... and its been a few months since I've stopped drinking it. :( And I really thought itd make a HUGE difference because I was…

thanks for sharing!!!!

I want to send the butter one to my hubby! Last night he got on my case for butting some butter on my bread and all I got was "BUTTER IS THE ENEMY!" lol. I like butter :) I also have a friend who eats only sweet potatos because they're "better for you" hehe, not necessarily true!! lol thanks for sharing this!!!

I've heard that boobs are one of the first places you lose when you start working out... so maybe you've just been losing boobage.... have you been measuring your thighs/upper arms because you'll lose there too. You know its going away somewhere cause you lost 6 pounds!!! WAY TO GO!!!!!!

of course itll be difficult but thats what you want! You want to push yourself to make yourself better!! And it wont be too difficult for you to do, you can TOTALLY do it, youre ready now otherwise they wouldnt be saying you are, but it is going to work you but you need to push yourself! Dont cheat yourself!!! My husband…

perfect example of fat vs muscle..... pre pregnancy I had a lot of muscle... I lived on a farm, I worked out a lot without knowing it, so I was 140-145 and very skinny and toned...... I am at that same range right now but I have a LOT less muscle so instead of being skinny, I'm the same weight but there is much more fat on…

I always have this problem when I start a new routine.... my husband is always great help for me though since his job is to be physically fit! lol. He told me that if you arent working out, or arent working out hard, and then all of a sudden start your body automatically goes into starvation mode where it holds onto…

my SIL, before she was killed, was a nurse and she always advised me against using slimfast... I cannot remember what was in it that she said was bad, but she always told me not to do it.... and she was big into diet and weightloss... shed lost over 100 pounds so she could join the army.

I know its nothing huge, but its a big step in the right direction for me! I've always been anti-running... I just hate it... but I've actually been doing it and getting my butt up and jogging before breakfast! Its been 2 weeks and the first week I ran 4 days (one of which was a run with my husband, who can fricking run an…

way to go!!!!

once a week... I weigh in and measure myself on monday morning... keeps me from cheating horribly on the weekends because I know on monday I weigh in! lol. And remember, muscle weighs more than fat and youre going to start gaining more muscle... thats why I measure myself as well to get an overall idea of where I'm at :)

I'm new to fitnesspal, but definatly not new to trying to lose weight :( I used to be one of those people I now hate... could eat anything and not do much extra exercise and stay thin... now, after having a child, my body is the opposite! My daughter is almost 2 and Ive been back to my pre pregnancy weight for some time…
