I usually weigh daily, and only log a number if it stays put for 3 days.

I'm 5'3" and 150. Everyone is different, but I just have to stick to counting calories, logging religiously, and avoiding foods that make me binge. Certain ones I have a hard time stopping at just a bite! A lot of people say diet is more effective than exercise for the loss part. As far as exercise at home, do planks. I…

I was in one with my now husband for about a year. We dated for about a month before he had to move about a thousand miles away. This was YEARS ago before free long distance or email, so we couldn't even talk on the phone very frequently. I stayed true to him, but I knew he would not do the same for me (not because he…

Could be a food sensitivity? Gluten always makes me super bloated, though I'm not celiacs. Also could just be your body type. It's frustrating to me that I'm not taller, but there's not much to do about it! LOL! :)

I like sunflower oil. Can add a few drops of lavender or another essential oil if you like. Really works great for keeping your feet from looking cracked and gross!

I'm in a similar boat. In a funk, but I know it would probably help if I improved my diet... you know... consistently. Also love cats, and have Graves Disease. So opposite the hypo, but I'm on medication that is probably not helping me in the metabolism department! I'm not Celiacs, but feel better on a gluten free diet.…

I highly recommend trying to get to at least a few classes! Your body may need modifications for certain poses, and in-person feedback is really important to getting the most out of it as well as avoiding injury. Then take that feedback with you to your home practice. :)

Pre-logging the food really helps me stay on track. Everytime I think about food, I drink water. I also try to think about what I'm feeling when I want to eat. Bored? A craving? Feeling emotional and want to escape? It seems to help me identify at least if I'm actually hungry. I'm usually not, or at least not so hungry…

I won't even use the treadmill at the gym because my running is so loud! LOL! What am I doing wrong? I just stick to the elliptical.

Haven't been good about drinking it regularly, but it does help to drink some before beans if you get my drift (pun intended). I make a wonderful skin toner with it (use on my face, neck, back), and no longer get cystic acne, my pores are tinisy tiny: 2oz Braggs Vinegar 2oz Witch Hazel 2oz Distilled Water 1 tsp Vegetable…

Plain Greek yogurt as a substitution for sour cream. Works in recipes too. Never eat mayonaise again. Or if you MUST, the olive oil Mayo from Best Foods/Hellmans is good. Portion control. Take half of what you think you want. Just try it. If you're still hungry 20 minutes later, go get more.
