  • Keep doing what your doing. It will come off. My biggest concern is that you do not burn out. Remember you just had a baby 3mths ago and your body needs to recoop from it. As I indicated keep doing what your doing and enjoy that new baby of yours. They are only little for so long. Your doing great.
  • Hello I've just turned 50 and I too need a weigh loss buddy. sw- 185 cw- 180 gw- 150
  • I agree whole heartedly. I've been at this since nov last year. At one point I had lost 11lbs but life happened and gain 9 of it back. I'm not happy about it and finding difficult getting back on track. Thanks for the words of encourgement. I'm taking it one step at a time and one day at a time. I will win!!!!!!!!
  • I would recommend that you go see your doctor.It's good to recognize that you do feel low. Sometimes you may need to be on a low dose of meds to keep you balanced. The other thing that I could suggest is to write a journal on a daily basis as to how you feel, what is upsetting you, what makes you happy and generally how…
  • I agree with you all. I'm from Canada but I can tell you that the police are not to blame here. Irregardless of what country you may live in, we all have are problems. I agree with girnahat, do they even know what they are fighting about????? It is a shame that these old buildings are being burned for the sake of WHAT…
  • Eggs are good for you. However in order to cut down on the calories, I would suggest you get rid of one of the yolks as egg white are much lower in calories and yes the egg white does have potein but just not as much as the egg yolk. hope this helps.
  • If you know which restaurant you are going to, find out if they have a website and see if they have posted their menu. This way when you get there you will already have your choices made. Hope this helps.

  • The reason you are craving salt could be related to your adrenal glands. When your adrenals are severally taxed you will crave salt. My suggestion is to go see you family physician and get a complete blood work up to make sure everything is good. The other reason is if you are trying to cut down on salt you will also crave…
  • I've watch this and this guy is dead on the money. I know understand why you like his video. He is very right. That is why I'm know going to perimeter shop at the grocery store.
  • As posted before, I do not know the complexity of your situation, however you need to sit down with him and ask him why he said what he said. I also agree you must reassure him that you are doing this for YOURSELF and also to be a good role model for your children. Ask him if he would be interested in joining you in your…
  • I too am doing P90X. In week 1 and let me tell you as you very well know, it really kicks butt. I love it. It's amazing once you start tracking what you are eating what a conscience effort you make to eat better. Welcome aboard and if you wish you may add me as a friend.
  • CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! You look awesome.
  • I think as soon as this challenge is over we should start. I have not reached my goal due to life happening but getting back on track. I know go to zumba 3 x per wk and am working hard at tracking all of my food. You last challenge was fantastic and believe the next one will be just as good if not better.

  • I use to have the same problem. I tried taking wheat out of my diet and found a huge difference. I did this for a three week span then I reintroduced wheat and the problem came back. I know am eating completely gluten free. The breads/pasta's are very good and there is more variety in the grocery stores know as it is…

  • Bullying is a major problem within North America. The best way to solve this is to have you girls play in your yard when the bullies come to the door and to keep an eye on them. Sit both of your girls down and talk to them. Let them know that bulling is not acceptable and if either one see someone being bullied to get an…

  • Have you consulted a Naturopath. If I were in the situation, I would see both medical and natural treatments before I started the Metformin. As stated before this is typically a drug given to diabetics. If you are having sugar issues then by all means go ahead and start the drug but if you are not I would see another…
  • I would like to thank all of you for the support. You have given me the strength and motivation that I once had but are slowly regaining. I appreciate everyone of you. Once again Thank you.
  • Hi Welcome!!!!!!! I know it difficult when the kids are little but one suggestion is when you are not working and if it is nice take your kids for a walk in a stroller. By pushing the stroller with the children in it, it will give you extra weight to push and give you a good work out. You don't have to go for a long period…
