I would do just that, especially if you're working out, that's why I strive for and I work out usually 5-6 times a week for a least an hour, and I've been pretty steadily losing 2 lbs a week at that. I do go over on some days though. My food diaries are open if you'd like to look, and you can always friend me if you like,…

I sent you a private message, and it wasn't mean I promise. You sound sad my dear, and I send you my good vibes and e-hugs. Please don't get discouraged by other people. The only way you'll really dissapoint yourself is if you stop trying. The only way to fail is to stop trying (maybe I'll get that tattoed backwards on my…

I agree with what some other people are saying. I think your boyfriend should mention that it hurts your feelings that you are being excluded, perhaps they should take one with you, and one without, so that whomever is concerned about the non-marriage/blood part of the family in the photo can still have their pristine…

Awesome ideas guys!

Incredible! You know one day you'll hear someone say "I keep coming back to the gym because she inspires me to do it." I know if I went to your gym I'd tap you on the shoulder and tell you myself. Congradulations on having adoring fans!

I think i used the username 5Cole, I would have to check though, isn't that silly I don't remember...lol

I have a guilty secret, and her name is Karen Hawkins. She writes period romance novels set in the 1800's of Scotland/England. I love her writing style, I always end up loving every character in the books, even the villians! They aren't too Sex-eh though, not a ton of gratuitous intercourse which makes them bearable.

OMG! I am so danged addicted to that game, I play on my breaks here at work and when I get home....I'll try to remember your sn so I can challenge you when I go on break in 2 hours.

My mother.

You are the Shiznit, that is why you are my friend, I know you will kick this right in the behind!

I made 30 minutes on the elliptical for the first time today too! Must be something fit in the air?

I found this one brand that I like very much Millstone Ground (it's in my food diary which is open if you want to look) and it's 140 cals for 15 chips and they are delicious. I have also seen on one of the message boards that you can make your own by cutting up a tortilla & baking it in the oven for a bit, not sure how…

Soil gets me pumped (Halo, two skins, redefine, etc), I also enjoy some Soulfly, Static-X, and the occassional Shinedown or Seether song gets me going. Disturbed has some high intensity songs that I'll bump up the speed on the treadmill for as well. Hope some of these suggestions work for you!

I've never done it but I you-tubed it, yipes, I can imagine that a pillow might work, or one of those special donut pillows.

You can't stop yourself from feeling guilty, you can remind yourself that you have other victories and just not focus so much on one little let down. You know you could also take this as an opportunity to go for a walk or a jog or do a workout that would bump up your calories burned and it wouldn't be so much over, there's…

Hey...you....cut it out! I already got my cardio in today, but I'm sure I wouldn't mind another 15 minutes of butt-kicking to punch up my heart rate. I mean seriously, if I'm going to butt-kick, I might as well burn some calories and do it like I mean it. Now you do the same! Kick your own butt, for at least 15 minutes!

I am also fair skinned and I tend to "pinken" when I workout. I just figure now that if I don't look like a wet shrimp after I'm done then I haven't worked hard enough!

The gym that I go to train at is specifically for sessions with the five trainers employed there. I've noticed a few of the times I've gone there were two women in their mid to late forties who share a trainer for one session. They are always wearing super tight workout gear, they are both fairly slim, they both have their…

You look fantastic! Awesome job! I hope to have after pictures that shine like yours do.

Well I can't speak for the weight gain, but I have in the past had a similar situation. I was going to the gym regularly (although not being too careful about what I ate), and I lost nothing for about a month. I wasn't binging, and I was working out at least an hour and a half three to five days a week mixed cardio &…

That sounds AWESOME! Totally sending that to myself in an email to reference the next time I have a salad.

I love this joke every time I see it!

Try Target. I think I got mine there for around 30 bucks or less. I had to buy one that went over 300...I already had one but it wouldn't weigh me at the start.

You've come to the right place! I got the app for my Samsung Epic & then I came to the site, it's the most amazing & useful app I have put on my phone, and this website is fantastic for support & ideas! @ Monkey--Upgrade time, you won't regret it!

You look fantastic! Great job, also love the style & the ink!

I think that's fantastic! It's definitely a worthy success story. I know exactly how you feel, and I say some of the same things to myself when I'm trying for just another five minutes on the elliptical. We can do it!

I also work a third shift twelve hour deal. What I've done is changed the names of my meals to reflect that. I have Breakfast/1 am break, lunch/before work, dinner/afterwork, and I've renamed the others for other break times at work so that I can get more meals in and know how to break them up. My food diary is open if you…

Did you notice the man-crushing thighs the other chick had? Holy Shazbot! I would totally suggest if you're a first timer not fully doing the squats & lunges because by the third day the muscles in the top of your thighs are going to seriously burn. I did notice that it's kind of a "butt-centric" workout though, I felt…

I use Calisthetics.

I had a Burger King Breakfast experience much like your taco experience, only it crippled my stomach for about an entire day, it was almost like food poisoning.
