Thanks for the numbers!!! It helps to put things into perspective. :happy: Oh, and saving for later when I need it again. Thanks!

I call them free days. I free myself from the confines of everything. If the girls and I go for a walk great, if we sit at home and watch movies great, but it is my free day. If you want to get into the science of it all, basically you are reminding your body that there is no famine and it is OK to keep letting the fat go.…

:happy: Congratulations!!!! You look great!!!! Keep up the hard work and thanks for the motivation!!!!!!!

Your body has this primal thing called starvation mode. This is one of those reflexive things your body will do and it will hang onto every ounce of fat that it can. Having to take a supplement for energy indicates that your body is trying to tell you something. I agree with those that suggest going to the eat more to…

I haven't met anybody with Tattooer's remorse personally, I'm sure there are some out there that feel that way though. It sounds like you've taken your time to think it out and make sure it's what you want, so yeah, go for it. These are some good things to keep in mind though, make sure it's you, the artist is awesome, and…

Hi, I'm Laura. I am a PATH Itnl certified riding instructor at a wonderful theraputic riding center. I love my job! I've gotten so out of shape that when I ride my mare at thecanter, my core muscles start burning. How did this happen? I seldom get to ride, and feel guilty when I do put a leg over, so I'm sure that doesn't…

I just started Friday. My weight loss looks great, but there is a huge difference between fully dressed in the doctors office in the afternoon and first thing in the morning in my night cloths. 44 years old 195.6 lbs 14 " neck 38" waist 47" hips I'm just trying to get in a groove I can live with.

Eat the 1000 calories or close to it. You do not want your body to go into starvation mode. The reason for keeping track of both exercise calories as well as what you consume is because when your body senses a famine, it will start storing fat, your metabolism will go down, and over prolonged periods of time can cause some…

On the food portion of the website it says, " 8 cups of water a day". A cup of water is 8 ounces. That is the standard for most nutrition sites.

Daisy, three year old poodle rat terrier mix, my baby and somehow I've ended up with three more. Buster, nearly 10, (he decided he didn't like his custody arrangements, great now that I'm not in an apartment any more) lab mix... Buster has recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. He was rescued from the pound almost…
