Naked wings (not breaded or fried) with dry rubs. The traditional are less than the boneless too.

I like getting a pitcher of water, slicing a lemon, lime, and orange, adding the slices to the water, and a couple sprigs of mint. It looks beautiful and tastes refreshing!

My two favorites are Zumba and Spin they both get me sweating, heart pumping, and of course give me an amazing cardio high.

Some sort of weight excerise, even if it's body weight.

This won't do anything for belly fat... but it will help you slim your belly. Cut back on your sodium. Lots of sodium = lots of water retention. Make sure you're eating enough fiber and drinking enough water to flush everything out too. Sometimes a "backup" can cause some pretty severe gut pooch.

There's walking at a leisurely pace. You could log that. On days that I work on the floor versus working at the desk, I usually put in 30 min or so even though I'm actually running around for 12 hours.

I had been doing my exercises at 4:30 three days a week, which is during quiet time. However, this is out in the front room, far away from their bedrooms. I highly doubt that this creates so much noise that it wakes them up. My theory is that they are already awake, it's an elderly woman so I wouldn't doubt it if she wakes…

I ended up not doing the greek yogurt icing. I didn't seem like it would be stiff enough to decorate the doll, and I didn't want her to have a "wardrobe malfunction" so instead I altered the cake itself. The recipe called for 6 cups of flour, so I used 4 cups flour and 2 cups protein powder. I also subbed apple sauce for…

I wouldn't pay more than $5 a class. We already had an xbox, so when we got the kinect, the Zumba game was a no brainer. It has paid for itself already.

I've heard that your body doesn't even start to release the stress releasing, feel good, benificial hormones until 20+ min. I *think* they (it was in a Jillian Michael's podcast) said that the full effects were around 45 min. So maybe instead of doing a long 90 min, you could do two 45 min. Seems like quite a bit though.…

Zumba is some serious fun! I loved going to my classes because they turned off the lights and it was like a dance party. I bought the kinect game and again, it's just a fun time! It's great to do it in my own home without worrying what I look like, but it's also super fun to be in a group of people doing it too. Give it a…

Yum! Greek yogurt frosting! That sounds amazing! Thanks for the tips everyone. I guess I should have specified, we are staying away from controversial ingrediants as much as possible such as high-fructose corn syrup and artificial sugars. I'm not knocking you're choice to use these things, it's just our own personal…

Go for it! If you need to scale back, you're body will tell you. Otherwise, why not push yourself? Your body will not change if you do not push it.

Doing modified, yesterday I did day one 10 : 12 : 7 : 7 max 14. Today week 1 day 2 I did 1 : 12 : 8 : 8 : max 20 I'm doing the 30 day shred as well, and all I can say is: Don't try to do one right after the other :)

Count me in. I might not post regularly, but I'll get on when I think of it Edit: I just completed the initial test. 12 modified knee pushups.

It's a circuit training DVD including 3 min of strenght, 2 min of cardio, 1 min of abs. You do this three times with different exercises. All you need is some room to move around, two hand weights, and a mat if you prefer for the abs. It has three different levels, it is recommended to do each level for 10 days. Some…

My bet is that it's different based on the location. I go to Bally's and there is no track. Actually, the three locations that I have been to don't have tracks. Give the gym a call, I'm sure they'll be able to tell you.

I think I'll start adding in scoop by scoop until I find the "sweet spot" Thanks everyone

For cardio I generally set a goal time. At times I will hit that, and push myself to do another 10-15 min just to see if I can do it. After consistantly pushing through the extra that becomes me new "goal." With weights, I always do 3 sets of 15 reps. When I want to really push it, challenge myself to do an extra 5 reps.…

Um... AWESOME! Thanks!

Totally get what you're talking about. I was doing awesome on here, losing weight like crazy. Then I stopped logging my food to see what I would do on my own. Well... the pounds started creeping, then they just all came back. I haven't gone to the gym (except one day) for the last month and a half. Ugh. I am recommitting…

I pay $25 a month at Bally Total Fitness. I'd be willing to pay more though to get newer equiptment and nicer locker rooms.

No, I will not throw it away. It is my coworker's birthday cake. That just isn't right. I don't need to throw it away either. I'm quite enjoying watching it, as it watches me. I know I'm in control now, not the food.

Totally makes sense! The bruises do line up with the leg curls, leg extension, and hip abductor machines. You are BRILLIANT!

Yeah, I thought he was flirting for a while but it just didn't seem like your typical "I'm hot stuff" flirting. It was more intimidation. I don't regularly go to that location, so I doubt I'll run into him again. If I do though, the staff will be hearing from me for sure.

I don't hit anything while working out, and I don't remember running into anything on my legs. The only thing that I can think of is running into the counter at work, but that was my waist, not my legs. Most of them don't hurt and are brown. But I have a few that are pretty painful and are blue/purple. I know the brown…

Personally, I haven't done this, but I've seen sushi make with quinoa instead of rice. Sounds healthier for sure. I was also thinking about adding cinnamon and milk to it, and eating it as a warm cereal type food.

Super sad day! I couldn't live without my coffee. (Ok that's not true, I did survive while Lent without coffee, but it was NOT pretty)

There is a Zumba instructor that is so hot it's distracting. When I went to her class I found myself fantasizing about having her body. Jillian Michaels has killer arms for sure. But I also want nice abs, defined abs.
