  • I wear contacts and it helps. When I would wear one contacts, that eye (without the contact) would tear up.
  • Hey! I am 5'10 1/2 and I have 19 lbs to go! good luck!
  • I love CHEESE!!!! I love it...love it love it love it. I also like...hmmm...fruits like grapes. But I really love cheese. Not the fat free kind for me. I like that munster cheese, 2 slices to make a melty grilled cheese sandwich. I also like walking....it calms me, with a great soundtrack on my ipod that combines pop and…
  • Fat Free sour cream and fat free cheeses Guh- ross!!!!
  • Yeah, Juice can kill your sugar allowance. Suggestions are greek yogurt, granola bar, grapes or a banana. They are not as hight in sugar and they are fairly portable even with little ones. However, if you are a juice junkie and attached to juice, I would dilute it. Drink half the normal amount and mix it with water. GOOD…
  • Girlfriend!!! I can help you. First, buy the popular magazine, that is advertising "FALL STYLES". Over on this side of the pond, it is called "People Magazine". Second, shop at a store that specializes in stylish, women's clothing. If you go to the department stores (which I DO NOT recommend), you will have hit or miss…
  • I can be your buddy, too!!! Welcome:)
  • I am a bum....in the gym. I do Jillian Michael circuit training or walking. My goals with JM are to "make it through the 20 minute workout" and my goals when walking are to "relax". When I am in the gym I am too calorie dependent and not results focused. I think having "calorie burn" goals are good. However, I would also…
  • He just probably noticed that you look hot....now he's paying attention. SMH....
  • Disgusting....but oddly acceptable in a humorous way...
  • Good Luck!
  • OLIVE OIL!!!! I have a tbsp a day of olive oil. I don't know why, but my chest region started looking "plumper" despite my weight loss. When I don't have olive oil in my daily diet I notice that region getting "looser" and less "elastic". Look at your diet and see if you have things like canola oil, olive oil, or fatty…
  • Strength training. you need to build muscle to increase your metabolism. My mother is in her 50's and slimmed down by doing body pump classes at the gym. If you don't have a gym, I recommended a Jillian Michael DVD. In addition, cut down on fat producing food, such as juice, high fructose corn syrup, and anything bread or…
  • Lol! biscuits aren't bad. However, biscuits with a million ingredients in them are. Solution: make ur own biscuits. That way, you know what you are eating. I just read that BISCUITS=COOKIES I had that problem. The problem is that you are not eating enough protein and real carbohydrates. Your body is craving energy in the…
  • Ummmm....where to start? You may need to eat on average 2000 calories a day and exercise should be light. You need to have your body trust you. Right now it doesn't and quite frankly, it shouldn't. Many of your actions seem to be self-sabotage with the intent of destroying yourself. It seems though your body has taken over…
  • That is a HOT MESS. You need to IGNORE your roommate and when she asks "What's wrong????" , tell her that you are NOT USED to NEGATIVE COMMUNICATION and that if it may not be a good idea for you two to TALK AT ALL unless it is through text messaging and email. She will wise up. Bullies HATE being ignored, they will do…
  • Ground chicken tacos- brown ground chicken in a pan with water and add taco seasoning. Add favorite toppings with a soft or hard taco shell. It also makes a great taco salad:)
  • I like it! I like level three better though; it has more plank exercises. I could never do it all thirty days; however, but I lost 10lbs in 3 months doing it whenever, eating better (trying), and walking! I also like to do "Ripped in Thirty" (week three workout). Good Luck!!!!
  • It really depends on your body shape. If you are unbalanced, for example, your legs are now out of proportion to the rest of your body, I'd say cool it. I have to watch how much leg training I do as well, because I can gain easily there. If you like the way it looks, continue what you are doing, but be sure to balance it…
  • My suggestions would be to eat foods that are healthy that you like and do exercise routines that you like as well. That way, when weight loss is slow, you continue to do what you are doing because you enjoy it. GOOD LUCK!!!
  • Hey!!! Good luck:)
  • I am sorry you feel frustrated. However, there are a lot of stores out there that cater to curvalicious women (Torrid, Dots, Lane Bryant, Old Navy). I don't think it is fair that stores cater to small people either, but I have to shop in certain stores, too. I am tall and got a booty like "what". Do you know how many jean…
  • Hey! Exercising in the early in the morning takes a lot of willpower. Maybe you should find an exercise that you actually want to do (like a belly dance dvd). Or instead of run/walk, just walk with your ipod on a great playlist. Maybe exercising at night isn't the best for you. Are there other solutions? Could you exercise…

  • AWWWW!!! Y'all so cute. I'm about to cry:) lol! Congratulations on your journey and good luck for your big day! I am excited to have you guys here!
  • YAY! I might try that walking at 4mph with a 5% incline (you know I went for the easiest one:)
  • You will lose weight, if that is your only goal, that is fine; however, the hardest thing to do is to lose weight while being healthy. I used to eat cheescake to lose weight when I was young and that ish worked! It doesn't anymore and I had to start from square one learning my body. So, eating unhealthy might work for now;…
  • OH EMM GEE! I am a grad student, too, and I sooo know what you are talking about. Exercising when there is an exam is almost a joke; however, it can be done. You might want to try walking, it reduces stress, you can do it anytime, and it gives you a workout. Also, I do Jillian Michael tapes (the 20 minute workouts: Ripped…
