  • Agreed. I'm a 39 too, but I'm more of a 10-12 right now. My legs are a little heavier than a typical 10. If you have a Levi store near you, they can totally measure you and help you pick not just the right size, but the right fit for your body type. That was SO helpful to me. Now i can go to any store / brand, and kinda…

  • Yep.. That's the key! I have been GF for over 7 years now. I have an intolerance / sensitivity not celiacs. I went cold turkey for the first year - not replacing anything with a GF alternative. Lost 45 lbs in the process, but the best part was I felt AMAZING! The grocery/specialty options were just not in my budget, so I…

  • If it's going on a piece of gluten free bread - I like it to be a little on the less dry side. Don't deprive yourself - use the mayo and count it! I also like avocado. I usually get the single-serving pouch. I'm thinking that I can add it to a salad. It should mix with the dressing (usually a vinaigrette) and taste just…

  • I exceeded my goal - and my expectations - last month. I will think about my motivation / goal today in my spin class. In all honesty, I'm going to spin class today because I can't stand football / Super Bowl (and I live in Colorado), and it's been snowing non-stop for 3 days so I can't go outside. CABIN FEVER! Yay…

  • Neurologist - inconclusive. Had nerve conductivity tests done, but they weren't able to do the full "probe" since I am on an anticoagulant and they didn't plan ahead. Since the "topical" tests they performed didn't show anything, I didn't go back. I did have several MRIs done, but they were all head and neck. No plaque, no…

  • Don't get too discouraged...I am right there with you. I had a great beginning to the month, and then hit a wall. My diet and exercise routine didn't change, but something else has to have happened. I'm going back to the beginning of the month to see what I was maybe doing a little different to see loss rather than…

  • If you are working out regularly, and doing some strength training, then you are not only going to lose weight, but you are also going to tone and build muscle. You scale won't necessarily reflect inches lost - so a dress you think might not fit because of your scale weight, might actually look better! When I have an event…

Then had 1/2 of a HUGE ribeye for dinner. I know that when I have an off day, and don't end with a deficit that I am going to retain / gain a bit the next day,…
