Unfortunately tv has become a very important part of our society. Everything that kids like from toys to video games is tied to their favorite shows and characters. I'm not against not owning a tv and your coworker should respect your decision and NEVER call you a bad parent. Your parenting is none of her business. My in…

I gained 17 lbs with my first pregnancy and had no problems returning to my old weight. I breastfed a lot and I ate very little during my pregnancy (wasn't hungry). The key is not to go crazy with food while you're pregnant. The whole you have to eat for 2 is a lie.

She better not be thinking about this regimen for the lOng run. This is unsustainable and will only be setting herself up for uncontrollable binges in the future. Your friend needs help. Often times teenagers don't know how to diet and think that starving oneself is the only way to get results. Tell your friend that she…

This is when being celiac comes to an advantage. I can say, no I can't have that cake, it's not gluten free and no one gets offended :-)

I eat like 4-5 servings of fruit a day and even more when I work out. Fruit is a great source of energy and fiber. Don't let people tell you otherwise.

Jennifer Nicole Lee, but I have wider hips and smaller boobs :-(. Her body is perfect!

I had my son via c section and I was able to get back into shape. I'm actually in better shape now than before I got preggers. I first noticed the belly bulge going away after walking a lot and then I added strength training. I think walking is one of the best exercises to get a flat belly.

Heck yea!!!!! Go Germany!!!!!!

You can write your own rules and follow a close paleo lifestyle without many restrictions. I'm gluten intolerant, so for me eliminating grains was a blessing, however; I cannot imagine myself without dairy products. I just thrive on them. So I consider myself paleo like but I write my own rules.

The problem with low carb AND working out is that the body requires the carbs to replace the glycogen stores in your muscles. Low carb is great for sedentary people, but it's a no no for active people. Eat a carby meal (like potatoes) after working out so your body uses that to restore the glycogen. Carbs don't equal junk.…

My body asks for higher calorie days every three days or so. It's like clockwork. I usually just have ice cream and since I have celiac and a lot of GI problems, avoiding foods is not that hard. Usually I feel like crap when I eat too much anyway. I'm still paying for a cheat day I had a week and a half ago. I used to be…

Butt, thighs, and hips, but I have a tiny upper body with rail skinny arms, no shoulders or boobs. If you look at my upper and lower body separately you'd think elwe're two different people!

I eat them with my Greek yogurt every morning, but that's it. I limit myself because not only are they high in calories and addictive, but once i've had a whole bunch of them, my stomach will make me pay for it dearly....

115 to 120 is a great goal for someone your height. My mom is 5'3" and around 119 and looks amazing! Really small and petite.

First: morning musume in Tokyo. Last: morning musume in Tokyo. Not a concert girl.

It only gets tougher from here but you'll be strong enough to handle it. Also, the one for you will come at the tender age of 20, so stop looking and enjoy yourself!!!

Carbs are needed for active lifestyles. I tried the 'low carb'- paleo approach (50-75 grams of carbs) with no dairy, very little carbs, lots of fat, coconut milk, nuts, etc for a bit and I lost A LOT of weight really fast (went from 112 lbs to 100 lbs at 5'5" in about a month). I really felt well at first, but after a few…

Arguing is the last thing we do when drunk ;-) lol

That apple seed one is the funniest one so far!

You look awesome! Nice and tight!

Gun, I'm sure you look better than most women on bikinis I see at the beach.

I was raised on that mentality too.... And then I wondered why I was breaking out, getting, inflammation, constipated, etc. No it couldn't have been the corn flakes and the fat free milk I was having for breakfast.

Ok, back on the subject, the craziest one I've heard is: 'if you don't eat the most nutritious, most important meal of your day 15 minutes after you work out, you will store fat and it will be as if you hadn't worked out at all. Basically work put gone to waste.' yes, trainer, I carry a lunchbox full of baked chicken,…

I sort of follow the paleo way because it works with my body. A lot of people who follow this diet are pretty extreme and that's why I strayed away from those forums. Anyway, I had my first cup of pinto beans the other night only to wake up very nauseated and gassy the next day, so I don't eat them often. Not because I…

For people with celiac like me, a wheat belly is the most painful, debilitating, mentally exhausting thing in the world. It's like kryptonite. Pure poison. Yes, there's truth to it if you have the wrong genes.

Go to a local meat market. I get whole chicken breasts there for 2.99/lb and drumsticks for .99/lb!!!!!

1 hour.

You should except I just read the part about 'vanilla' Greek yogurt, which is probably sweetened. What I do is that I add the vanilla protein powder to the yogurt (it's sweetened with stevia so it's sugar free) and it makes the yogurt taste delish! Or just sometimes I eat it just like that with lots of fruits, nuts, and…

I eat that for breakfast everyday.
