I lost 20lbs before I saw/measured a noticeable difference. After that the inches just fell off! A lot of the weight lost at first is water weight! Keep pushing and stay positive! everyBODY is different, but I'd say you should start really noticing with the next 5-10lbs you lose! Along with measurements and weighing myself…

LOL...I run a home child care (11 kids, 2 are mine), so my day is pretty crazy! As far as the NEED for cardio, I base it on the fitness plan, put together between myself and my trainer, to reach my goals. I'm in good enough shape to handle it physically it's just the mental blah-ness of it that's got me down!

I absolutely LOVE the classes offered, but they are only in the evenings 5pm-7pm! Unfortunately I work from 6am-6pm and I have my kids so my work out time slot is vary narrow. Early morning 4am-6am. I train w/ my trainer Tues and Thurs from 5:30am to 6am and boot camp w/ trainer Mon-Wed-Fri 5:30am-6am. I make it to those,…

the one thing I can not give up is my 24oz Soy, white chocolate mocha with carmel! I no longer drink them EVERYDAY....only 'bout 2-3 times a month, but I can't just quit cold turkey! I figure...I gave up smoking I can keep my DAMN coffee! :)

I LOVE this one! So many people have the mind set "ALL OR NOTHING" eat you gain...starve you lose! Hey...the have the alternate day diet...why not alternate month? sounds like it'd work!

I meet with mine 5 days a week and have been for 2 years now. I have learned so much and she is always pushing me to go harder, faster and for me that's what I need!

good advice especially with the storage! try not to over produce your juice! as soon as you juice the oxidation process begins. best real of thumb when storing your juicing if making extra is never more than you will consume within 24 hours and to store all juice in air tight glass containers such as mason jars. besides…

protein powder eggs oatmeal fresh veggies

well that stinks...i don't even know how to use photobucket :(

I like you! :) this was very NON judgy!

careful with the ginger!! the flavor goes a LOOOOONG ways! LOL...made that mistake this morning. mine was ginger root, beet, carrot, apple, apricot, lemon and flax seed

i'm also "rebooting"! I don't have a lot of weight to lose, so I am doing it primarily to kick the cravings and get back on track! Good luck and I can't wait to hear more!

i'm curious too

your curtains are dreadful

fall...I live in the PNW so the trees are always beautiful and I love the wind storms!

hair, eyes and smile

as long as you are eaten enough to fuel your body and do not not physically feel like you're over doing it....getting light headed, head aches, nausea or just feeling all around fatigued...i wouldn't worry too much about it! I am glad to hear that at such a young age you realize how important exercise is for your health…

What a coincidence! That's my second favorite team too! :)

congrats! 14 days cig free for me! it's hard! I've tried and failed many times, but I am even more determined to stay smoke free this time!

Mine was seeing a picture taken of me 2 months after my 2nd child was born at my sister's wedding reception. I knew I put on weight, but that pic was an eye opener. I was a size 18 and now..3 years later..I am feeling good and looking good and wearing a size 4!

Vikings fan here!

dead lifts rock so do most lower body exercises...leg curls, squats, plie squats, step ups, lunges...the list goes on! my favorite is one leg sit downs. they kill my butt and thighs! i've also read that regularly massaging the cellulite areas helps to break down the fatty deposits that cause the cellulite. it doesn't get…

arms...I love big arms! :) to mavrick smukkepige- I love your nose!

i weigh myself every week same day same time and measure once a month same day same time

Just stay positive! You don't have to make a complete lifestyle overhaul in one day...ease into whatever it was she/he suggested. Small changes add up over time!

i also agree, but yes we've all been there. They taste good because of all the CRAP in them, but I'm more worried about the sodium. Just make sure to drink plenty of water and it's fine. unless you're scarfing em down like potato chips....then I'd be a bit more concerned

My name is Jennifer and I live in Auburn

My goal for the month is 65 miles. combination of walking, jogging and running. depending on my mood! :)
