mint & lamb. old-fashioned, and nauseating. also, mint and anything that you drink, like mojitos or mint juleps. uggghhh. since i believe pina coladas are pineapple & coconut, then that qualifies as a combo that i can't stand. not from a bad drunken experience or anything, i just feel like i'm trying to drink suntan oil or…

man, i hope everyone who says it does keep one from losing weight is wrong. :sad: but fat weight > baby weight, haha

alone almost always. my bf and i used to go to the gym, and he's just not that motivated. love him to death, but that's not an activity that's fun for us to do together! i go on bike rides with my dad some, and do P.A.C.E. express this summer with my mom, but i'm not really a huge fan of it, i'm just doing it to do it with…

you feel badass! i've kinda coupled this with all sorts of other more healthy things...like cutting my "social" smoking to even making sure i wash my face and makeup off before bed. it sounds silly but i when i make it more about feeling great than looking hot, it results in more rewards. not like looking hot isn't a great…

as far as premade ones, i have the pure protein ones that are 110 calories and 23g protein, in vanilla creme & a chocolate one. they're 12 ounces and they're really good =] i also have the powder one to mix with water, the body fortress super advanced whey protein, which is 140 cal per scoop & 26g protein. those i have in…

from my experience, i usually feel better with it, and it doesn't take any special effort to achieve that 8 cups. i have one of those camelbak bottles with the "bite valve" that's fun to chew on so i drink a lot...haha. if i do exercise in any way, i usually exceed 8 cups. it helps me avoid mindless snacking or cravings,…

i always have to have my coffee, but it's so hot. so i will take a cup of just black coffee and stick it in the fridge to cool it down, then blend it with some skim milk, vanilla protein powder, stevia, and some ice cubes, to make a sort of frappuccino minus all the fat and sugar, plus some protein! as for favorite…

what kind of calories are you getting if you work a full 8-5ish day? i suppose i'm about as active as the medical assistants are. today, i put in for the time i shadowed (minus lunch) as slow 2.0mph walk and it was a ton of calories burned. which would be great, but i have a feeling it's overstated, since i often simply…

I remember in high school, my coach telling me to land more on my heels when I run. It cleared up the shin splints. I run a little now, and haven't had any shin splints in years. I'm absolutely no expert runner, tho, so that could possibly be awful advice, Idk!

I thought about that, but I'm only doing this Wednesdays and Thursdays...as opposed to it being a full-time career, you know?

Get the Nike Training Club app for iPhone! I've heard it's on the iPad, too. Anyway, it's free and it's got tons of workouts that you do at home that only require dumbells, a medicine ball, occassionally a jump rope, and a mat. It will kick your butt but it's a really efficient use of time, whether you choose a 15, 30, or…

i use it a couple times a week and it kicks my butt but i love it! i'm still doing all beginner ones tho =[
