  • I am a teacher and a grad student attempting to finish her thesis. It IS tough, and I am a music teacher so I have entered "concert season", which is crazy busy. Just keep plugging along and making it happen. I drink a lot of coffee and tea :)

  • TaraMaria- Thank you for the kind words. I have just been going through my wedding pics and have been feeling sentimental and nostalgic, already! It was a great day, and yes, the dress was smashing :) That picture was taken shortly after hair and makeup. Pictures from the end of the night are not so complimentary :)

  • Ughgh....so I should be consuming 2151 calories-based on my goal and my excercise? That is a lot of food! I'm not even that hungry. Sorry I am so confused....numbers and me don't get along!

  • Hey there-I am also a music teacher (get to work before the sun rises and leaves long after it has set), but I know I have to work out. I am also a vegetarian and I always make sure to eat some sort of protein in the morning...that is my saving grace. I make quiche-a lot-usually a crustless quiche with skim milk. Then, if…
