I operate a ballet focused blog with some fitness exercises! I'm starting back up again- it's at www.fitterinaballerina.com if you're looking for ballet/dance focused workouts

Wow, there's a lot to consider here. A little about me, I'm a professional ballerina. I'm 31 and still perform and am looking for a new company position this year. I've been training in ballet since I was about 10 so I've had a long history with ballet. I've never eaten 3,000 calories a day nor have I ever felt that my…

Lol this is my biggest pet peeve as a teacher!! I have lots of teacher/classroom management tips at http://dancexploration.wordpress.com

I have a Ballet Fitness Blog where I post workouts that I do to get stronger and improve technique and just stay in general shape: http://fitterinaballerina.wordpress.com on my Pinterest I'm always posting ballet images. My pinterest profile is Fit10Ballerina

I'm a little late in commenting on this post. I am a professional working ballet dancer. I've been doing ballet for (not to give away how old I am) some 22-24 years. After taking a hiatus for 5 years from ballet and pointe, I had really wanted to get back into it. But was so afraid that having been off pointe for such a…

I definitely have this problem. For me it's usually only the first few days of being bloated and then it goes away. When I'm on my period or right before I drink a ginger/lemon water 3x's a day, it helps with the bloating. I also take the first two days some dandelion root, which is a natural diuretic that can be found at…

My boyfriend is 22 years older than me. He's the greatest person I've ever had in my life. We are both artists who enjoy living on the wild side. We have more in common than I've had with people just 5 years older. No video games, no drugs, no alcohol, more mature, and loving! It works for us!

Seems to me, you need to figure out what's causing you to feel the need to eat. I think a trip to a doctor, nutritionist or a therapist might be best. There's usually some underlying factors (stress, anger, fear, etc) that can cause someone to binge.

I have a pinterest board with inspirational and motivational people. I'm a ballerina so it's mainly of my ballet idols. Anytime I feel like being 'bad' I look at it and it helps. I also keep an accountability jar. I drop a marble in it everytime I'm 'in the green.' at the end of the month I count how many marbles are in my…

I recently tried fish tacos with a mango salsa at a Mexican Restaurant. Pretty good. I ordered all the toppings on the side so I could kind of control what I was eating.

Aurora or Rapunzel

Wow, well depending on how what your weight loss goals are, you may be looking at a lifestyle change. I can't see your diary, and you haven't provided too much information but with the foods you love, we know that they are all high in calories and fat as well as sodium and sugar. This is probably going to be a long road to…

I love the caramel frappuccino light...I usually add extra caramel drizzle (lots of sugar though even though it's only 100 calories even without the extra caramel).

I just recently changed my username: FitterinaBallerina I'm a ballerina that loves fitness and working out and Ballet! :D

I'm a ballet dancer, very active, and eat clean. I've always carried a little lower ab fat. Recently I've started drinking Kombucha and using coconut oil to cook with. I've read that kombucha helps with digestion and cocnut oil has been known to help reduce belly fat. I've noticed a difference without changing any of my…

Never! Too much sugar for me.

I find when I begin to plateau, I don't change my eating plan, but my exercise plan. For me I've noticed that my body gets used to doing the same routine all the time. Maybe try switching up your workout this month? Or go for longer cardio times? Just a suggestion that works for me! Congrats on the weight you have lost!…
