  • I would never take my infant to and upscale restaurant if I'm paying $25 just for the entree then that's obviously not an infant friendly place! But, I wouldn't get worked up over it the baby is just doing what it does crying. I think because you don't have children you find it annoying once you have your own trust me you…
  • I'm sorry hon but, I so totally agree with this person it all comes down to how bad you want it!!! I use to have to catch the bus at 5:30AM to get to my morning job as a Chef where I too was on my feet for hours and sometimes with out a break! So I would get up at 3:00AM (no lie! I slept in my workout clothes!) to do a…

  • I think it depends on what you want are you trying to tone and gain some muscles as well as burn fat? I also just had a baby I'm 63lbs down now! I like DVD's by the FIRM there great because they do a serious cardio segment and just when you don't think you can do another squat jump they stop and do a weight segment you can…
  • What I'm down for the challenge!! Bring it on!! ! Oh yeah you newbies can add me as a friend if you like!! Let's do this ladies!! But we need some other type of incentive well it is X-mas I say all the losers have to send one healthy inexpensive item to the winner Example like work out DVD, cool jump rope, sports bra,…
  • I like goldfish, apples, French's onions (just a few), and crasins!
  • Drink and eat your favorites in moderation never give up anything you will only be setting your self up for a binge!!
  • Anything by the FIRM they always have at least one lady doing modifications for all the exercises so it's great for beginners!! I like them because they do some cardio and then do a weight segment instead of just cardio all the way through and they have a huge variety of DVDs and equipment. Good luck!!
  • Hey first off welcome!! Second it happens, now get the hell over it!!! You have decided to do something about it and that is all that matters focus on that and go from there period!! Good luck you can do this! I started at 245lbs post-baby 11-3-11, started seriously training and eating clean in Jan 2012 as of today I'm…
  • I love cabbage!! Here's my recipe it's a cold salad............ Chop cabbage up fine, add in chopped or sliced cucumbers, tomatoes, red onion, chopped cilantro or green apple , left over cold chicken breast mix it all up and add your favorite low-cal dressing or keep it simple with apple cider vinegar I love it, it's very…
  • I will be in Hawaii so trying to find a boat could be and option! I'm preparing by losing serious amounts of fat so I can run faster! I'm lifting weights and have gained some serious muscle, strong people are hard to kill even for zombies And my weapons of choice would have to be a long machete (it never runs out of…
  • Well since you just had new baby (I'm 8 months post baby myself and I'm down 62lbs since!) working out with a new little one can be tough I know. But, the first thing is you wanna make sure your ready all healed up, and always remember this was a 9 month process so give your self time to get in shape or back in shape. So…
  • In the beginning I didn't tell anyone except my Mother of course I also have done that in the past and realized people were happy to see me fail so this time I decided to just let the results tell it for me!! At first I got comments like are you loosing weight? Now I have lost so much weight, that those same people( which…
  • Thanks hon this sounds so delicious , gonna make them this weekend!!
  • Honestly I would not worry about it too much like someone else on here said just take care of your skin as you loose weight lots of water, vitamins, healthy diet with plenty of greens which help tighten up skin, and most important keep your skin moist lots of good lotion like coca butter or Shea butter. Your still young so…
  • Ha, Ha, Ha, Hee, Hee, LMBO!!!!!
  • I agree with this quote everything she said is how I felt!
  • I say yes, and besides looking good ; Strong People Are Hard To Kill!! Period!
  • My fav is: 1/2 small banana Handful of peanuts 1-2 tablespoons of Hershey's unsweetened coca powder 1/2 cup of 2% One scoop of vanilla Whey Yummmie it taste like a chocolate peanut butter milkshake sooooo good!!!
  • Hummmm this sounds good ok I think I will try it for lunch today!! Thanks hon!!
  • For me instead of doing cardio with weights as an addition I switched to serious weight training with cardio as the addition. I started eating as clean as possible with a treat or two thrown in and BLAM!!! The fat has been melting off and the muscles popping out!!
  • Yep everything in moderation! I would go crazy if I could never eat chocolate granted now I eat way less (no more King Size Peanut M&M's late at night!!) . Every now and then I enjoy myself with my family.
  • One of my co-workers from Mexico was like "Just don't eat and you will loose weight" and he was serious!! lol lol But, no I think the best advice was "Lift weights to loose weight the more muscle you have the more fat you burn" words I now live by pumping iron is my hobby!!
