  • Bump. Found this incredibly helpful.
  • OP, How much weight do you need to lose? You don't look obese in that photo.
  • Time to get over that. The truth is, THEY don't matter and THEY probably could care less. :) I wish I could take you shopping.
  • And never underestimate the power of jeans and sexy high heels. And don't forget accessories and jewelry. I never realized just how passionate I am about fashion. LOL
  • OMGosh YES. Everything she said. Maurices Jeans are awesome. Also, DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCE buy a cheap bra. Go to Cacique or Victorias Secret and get fitted. Try on several styles. Pull those boobies up. Not cup overflowing up but just where they are supposed to be. Go get your hair done at a NICE salon. Then go to…
  • YUMMM, I wonder if I juice the squash first and use the pulp if that would make it crispier.
  • I go back and forth between my hip hop playlist and a angry rocker chick playlist. Depends on if my husband was nice to me that day. :)
  • An egg is an egg is an egg but an omelet is more than an egg. Sooooo an omelet would also have additional calories based on what you put inside it. I eat an egg white omelet with diced ham and a 1/4 cup mozzarella. I wish it had the same calories because I bet a skittles and twizzlers omelet would be awesome.

  • Why not skip the slimfast and make fruit smoothies instead. You can get tons of vitamins and energy from a single serving of a mixed fruit smoothie with greek yogurt and some spinach thrown in for good luck. :)
  • Posted my first run on the C25K group last night! It's a nice place where everyone feels great sharing even the small victories. Hell, I may not be to a 5k yet but I am a whole lot better off than I was when I was on the couch.
  • As I mentioned, I ran last night for the first time in 15 or so years and it nearly killed me. BUT, I felt soooooo good when I finished. I was on cloud 9. I don't think I ever wanna stop.
  • That's great! But NEVER on a treadmill. lol. :) I'm teasing you. I ran for the first time last night in my neighborhood using c25k. I have not run in 15ish years. My neighborhood is very hilly and for a brief moment I WISHED I was on a darn treadmill instead. I am concerned that if I start out running up and down hills I…
  • Why the heck judge anyone at all. Run your own race.
  • I dreamed once that I woke up and it had rained skittles all night and there were 3 feet of skittles in the back yard. I ran outside and dove in. I didn't eat any, but I sure as heck was one happy girl. The other day I dreamed I binged on a huge plate of spaghetti, butter and cheese and chased it with a huge pizza…
  • I had the same reaction when I logged my beloved sour filled twizzlers. From what I remember it was 1000 calories a bag.
  • OMGosh YES! That would be awesome. Then I could buy the expensive running shoes.
  • Why are you surprised that he lacks respect for the boundaries of your friendship when he shows a complete disregard for respect towards everything else in his life, women especially. Why are you congratulating a man for "banging a girl"? He's trivializing sexual intimacy and objectifying women and you are cheering him on?…
  • Thank you for sharing this. I've never heard of him. I just watched the metabolic damage video and it's wonderful. Now I just don't know where to aim for as a minimum calorie intake. I yo-yo'd my way into this disaster. I'm currently eating between 800-1200 calories a day. I lost 16 lbs then suddenly gained 7 back once I…
  • It's a personal preference. :) A good friend of mine loves her mans hairy chest. To me he looks a little sasquatchy. My husband shaves and I love it. Do what you feel comfortable doing. Who cares what your friend thinks. To each his own chest hair. Right?
  • My grandpa was a rural mail carrier and when I turned 16 he gave me his route car, a 1984 Chevy Celebrity. The whole right side of the car was dinged up from mailbox doors that would fall open onto the window or side of the car. It was ugly but I was lucky to have a car at all. :)
  • Bump for newer members. :)
  • It drives me absolutely insane when someone halfway erases a word on a white/black board. I will literally have to fix it before leaving the meeting or class.
  • I have never eaten condiments or pickles. No ketchup, mayo, mustard.
  • I drink lemon water daily. It makes water less boring and people say it helps prevent water retention. I also started infusing my own water with various fruits last night. I used big mason jars and put lemon wedges, a few rasberries, lime, orange slice, fresh mint, cucumbers, blackberries in various combinations and…
  • I started using progest cream. It's natural progesterone. That helped me sleep. I also take Menopause Support Formula. It helps me with mood swings. Black Cohosh really helps with hot flashes, that is what is in the Menopause Support Formula by Deltus Group. For some reason they have been out of stock at Amazon but you can…

  • I have had this happen to me several times. The first time was a guy that tried to cover BO with Ax and the other was a guy that could've cared less that he had BO. I couldn't help it. It made me mad. I'm even careful when I spray the paper towel to clean my machines. I spray it down low to the ground so nobody inhales it.…
  • That is soooooo true. I am a southerner and we talk to everyone. When I moved away from Alabama I noticed that people always thought I was flirting when I was really just being friendly. I guess some parts of the country think you are either flirting or that you want something from them when you talk to them. :)
  • Seriously. His abs are amazing. And I may have been flirting. :) Too much?
