I put few drops of clove oil in the water. Talk about a high. So yummy. I miss my hooka.

I am a HUGE kettlebell fan. I swing 2-3 times a week. It is a great total body workout. It's great for strengthing, toning, and building muscle endurance. My advice first off would be to have someone show you how to use them properly. Lauren Brooks has a great DVD series and she's very good about showing how to thrust the…

My husband and I haven't had sex in over a year. I've gotten to the point where I don't even want it from him so you have a couple of options. You can wait it out like me until you get to the point that you no longer find him/her attractive and don't want to have sex with him/her or you can talk to them about it.

What the hell is a jacket spud?

I hung up a pair of my favorite pants (that I could fit into before I had the baby) by the kitchen and taped a note to them that says, 'WEAR ME in 10 LBS' and I dated it and I update it every week. Now when I want to go into the kitchen and eat everything in sight, my pants are there to remind me how much further I have…

I know, right. I can picture some chic running down the road with a plate of pasta and a fork.

My sister told me that it didn't look like I had lost any weight because my arms were big (I have muscular arms). So I responded by telling her, "how's about I wrap one of my 'fat' arms around your skinny neck and squeeze and then we can determine just how fat they really are. Turns out she was REALLY jealous because when…

I CONSTANTLY tell people this!!! It's NOT a race, it's a journey and if you don't learn anything along the way, you will never see the end.

For me it's easy. I have 4 kids and by 8:20 (when I leave for the gym), I'm so frustrated with all of them that I need some serious stress relief. HAH!

Yeap. When I got within 10 lbs of my goal weight I started training with a weight vest. 40 lbs is HEAVY!!! Especially when you're trying to run on the treadmill.

Somebody told me to wash my underarms with hibiclens to keep the smell away. I did this and it does keep the smell away so I thought I would try it with some of my clothes. Basically, I dumped some in a bucket and filled it with hot water and old gym clothes. Then I washed them and the smell was gone.

I take some turkey or chicken breast (cold) and mash the avocado on top and add some swiss cheese.

My daughter - when she was 2 - to my dad while potty training: "Poppy, I peesed on floor." To which my dad says, "why did you do that?" Daughter, "I don't know but oh *kitten*!" Oops!

Somebody gave me a recipe for kale chips when I was pregnant and I won't eat anything else now. They're super easy to make and super delish!

You could get a Y rack. I don't know how much they are, but I've seen them at the gym I used to train at and I know Sports Authority sells them. Other than that, you could use a car port beam if you have that available. I plan to hang mine in the basement once we move. I miss my heavy bag.

My current addiction is wasabi peas. What about nuts or another fave of mine, a brown rice cake with some laughing cow cheese on it. YUMMY!!!

So how much weight has this person lost in a week?

Don't feel too bad. I can't do a pushup on my toes. I can bench press 135lbs and can't do a freakin pushup! It's really sad.

This is great! I have 4 kids and the three older ones have ALL said something like this - on a repeated basis. Here are some highlights: My 3 year old - An elderly lady walks out in front of traffic and I say, "Oh *kitten*, that old lady is going to get herself hit!" The windows were down in the car and my son says, "HEY…

This. I've been in management for most of my career and when I tell someone that they've made a mistake and ask them to correct it, it's not because I want them to feel bad, it's because something needs to be fixed. It's not a big deal, it just has to be done. I have more respect for the people that own their mistakes and…

Just stare at his crotch???

1. I am secretly obsessed with Kat von D. 2. I love my feet. Like seriously, I constantly massage them, baby them. LOVE my feet!!! 3. I love vodka, gin and tequila. And if I didn't have kids I'd probably be an alcoholic. 4. I've never tried any illegal drugs. 5. I know more about cars than I let anyone know about so I…

You'll get more responses if you open your diary and post your stats (i.e. starting weight, goal weight).

We've been married for 4 years this year and together for 6.

I got married when I was 17. Divorced when I was 20. We were high school sweethearts. I got re-married when I was 28 and by then I was comfortable with myself, the drama was gone, and I'd grown up a LOT. I don't think there is a right or wrong age I think everyone is different.

You look thinner through the waist and less bloated. Your arms are also starting to show some muscles.

Thank God I don't have any friends. *sigh*

My kids used to eat crap. And I fed it to them. I was a single mom and we did quick meals and I didn't know better. When I started changing my life, I changed theirs too. And I told them WHY I was changing it and they complained! Oh my Lord, you would have thought that they were going to die from eating whole wheat…

My baby girl is 8 months and I quit counting the calories a long time ago. If I get hungry, I eat something. The difference being that now I eat something like a piece of whole grain toast with some peanut butter or some fruit whereas before I would eat a candy bar.
