  • I am 5'7" and have been maintaining 140-145 lbs for about a year. I wear a size 6 in jeans, most of my tops and dresses are smalls, some mediums. When I get to the higher end of my range it makes me nervous, but my personal trainer just tells me to chill out! :smile:

  • I have year-round indoor/outdoor allergies and I have experienced lightheadedness and dizziness before. I asked my doctor about it and she said it was due to my sinuses putting pressure on my inner ears, throwing off my equilibrium. To get rid of that, she recommended taking an allergy medicine containing pseudophedrine to…

  • You might try shopping around for other gyms that offer more affordable personal training. I have lost weight on my own and gained it back several times, but I started working with a personal trainer almost exactly a year ago and my life has totally changed! Not only have I exceeded my weight loss goal but I have kept it…

  • Diet soda contains artificial sweeteners and artificial coloring. Caramel coloring has been found to be carcinogenic and the verdict is still out on artificial sweeteners, though it certainly can't be good for you. There is also evidence that artificial sugar actually makes you crave real sugar, which is not what you want…
