Too tired to answer now, but I've got sone ideas.... Bump for later or send me a pm... ;-) I try to sleep, it's 4 am here...

1) my dance shoes 2) my dance partner 3) Kettlebells

Squeeze your glutes while standing somewhere. Stand on one leg (on toes/ on a towel while brushing your teeth or in the bus) needs a lot of stabilization.

I usually have one cup in the afternoon as my "snack" and I go with 1.5 dl whole milk (a lot of froth) which is about 99cals and keeps me satisfied and warm and full till my next meal. And sometimes some cinnamon for flavor and blood sugar. And sometimes after lunch or dinner an espresso black with some cinnamon.

Interested in answers for myself ;-) And good luck to you!

Try one cup of regular tea and see what happens. I try not to drink too much caffeine as well, but if I was back on a lot of coffee I need to reduce slowly... Or if you're allowed (sugar-/cal-/gi-wise) a glass of fresh orange- or grapefruitjuice might help too. Good luck!

I want to... 1) get rid of the last 10-12 pounds and stay at that weight for the rest of my life 2) be healthy 3) be happy 4) bring my companies to flourish 5) have enough money for whatever I want/need 6) build more muscles 7) get better in aerials, Balboa and WCS 8) be found by my partner 9) have time for my friends,…

If I could manage to get 10 lbs down in the 10 weeks, then I would be around my goal weight... This would just be aaaaawwwssssoooommmmeee!!! But for the last 9 lbs I needed more like 15 weeks and to be honest I prefer it slow and steady. But still.. I try.. and hope... Good luck and a lot of energy and motivation to…

I don't have a pic and I don't know how to post it. My stats are: female, 36 years old Height 160cm (5'3'') Weight 65 kg (143 lbs) Waist 68cm (26.7'') Belly 88cm (34.6'') Hips 96cm (37.7'')

Congratulations! And feeling better and being healthier is much more important than wearing smaller pants - i think! So proud of you! Go girl - go! And ENJOY!!

I'm 5'3'' and currently about 143lbs. My goal is around 132 and some more muscles! Edit: but sorry, no pics from my side... :-/

I usually use frozen spinach, some avocado, pink grapefruit, lemon juice, protein powder and flax seed and sometimes some greek yogurt or ginger or whatever else is in the fridge. Just try out and enjoy!

Wow! Great! Go on and congratulations!

The base for hummus there is chick peas and tahini and usually some cumin (that helps with the blosting of all legumes) and garlic (I often don't use it). All other things are optional. Most recipes add olive oil, I don't. But I usually do add some joghurt or cottage cheese to make softer and less dense. It's easy and…

Thank you. And gonna read it later!

I love them. I use them for a short 5-10 min workout with mainly swings and variations 3 times a week. And every now and then for a longer one!

47. Have you forbidden yourself any type of food? Forbidden?! No. Due to a heavy allergy, I was not allowed to eat wheat, spelt and soy in any form for 8 years. This means I was not able to eat bread and cookies, pasta and cakes (the easy ones), nor chocolate, nor anything with soy lecithine or traces of wheat in it. Nor…

I've lost a human head ( I hope not mine, but just "a") and a guinea pig...

46. Try changing your routine today. Don’t do the same exercises as the week before, learn a new move to cinch that waiste or to tone those thighs! I changed my routine last week... And I'm gonna stick to that today. There's no time for trying out today. It's the last Thursday that will be as all my Thursday were for 8…

Hey girls first of all - biggergirlsru - how comes you say whey has gluten in it? If it's a 100% whey then it's gluten free. But yes it can be in all things that have wheat or other grains in it. And as wheat is cheap it's used in many "refined" foods. I once found it in an ice tea brand... Second: I had to live a complete…

It's a bit late and maybe you're already a push up queen! But what I did (and still do in my classes) is doing the plank and from there just bend the elbows a tiny little bit. And stretch them again. And bend them... a little bit more... don't think about lowering to the floor, don't think about push ups. But it will train…

45. Do you have a rest day when you don’t work out? Which day is it? I try to have one weekend day without too much or with no dancing. Sonetimes it doesn't work because I'm teaching or taking workshops. Then I can really feel my tired muses the next week, while teaching and I have to cut back on training or social…

44. Do you have a boyfriend/girlfriend? Does (s)he know about you losing weight? Does (s)he support you? I don't have a partner at the moment.

Wow... thank you for posting this. I would like to honor you and your honesty for this step. And I would like to tell you, that it is normal to feel ashamed and guilty for uncontrolled things that happen to us. It's normal and human. But it's not necessary. And in the end it doesn't help you overcoming a behavior, because…

I haven't read all the answers you already got. But my answer would be: DANCE! Dance for yourself with your favorite music, dance in class and find out what style you like or start a couple dance. Lindy Hop or Salsa are great cardio ;-) And enjoy the music, being indoor, having fun! I dance for hours. And I do a 5min…

43. Write your current weight. Have you lost anything in the past week? If not, what are your plans for this week? I was this morning 65.5 kg (144.4lbs). That means I lost another 1/2 kg (1 pound). That's ok so far. Today it was the first time someone asked me about my weightloss. And I will go on.

I got today a new tincture of Helianthus Tuberosus (basically topinambur) which is supposed to balance out insulin levels. I will keep you updated about my experiences!

Wow.. Interesting. Isn't there an ingredientslist (Zutaten) on the tea? Enjoy your tea ;-)
