Sorry double post

Greek yogurt is good..... protein bars come in more varieties to keep it interesting... Or- you can make things with cottage cheese and protein powder. Like for example, pancakes or waffles- and they are GOOD. And I agree- GOOD fats are a good thing in moderation..... you NEED fat.

Wow- Congrats!!! You look great!

Wow- I usually wear a 5 from most stores, but 4's if thats the alternative. I am 5'7 and weigh 135- but I have a booty lol

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO There is NO such thing as "too much protein" NO SUCH thing................ Eat lots of it!!!!!! My goal is to be OVER 100g/ day and Im not a big person!

Funny you should ask............ I stopped taking bc about a month ago.............. hormones were a hot mess (like they are for most women) I was on it for about 10 years. A hormonal imbalance can make it easier or harder (usually harder) to lose weight. They say it takes one month for every year you were on the pills for…

The one that I LOVE is beaver is in the road & guy swerves to miss him. Days later..........Bridge is out- Beaver gnaws down tree to save the same guy from driving off it and gives him a little chest fist bump LOL I stinkin LOVE that commercial. Too many to mention to get rid of......... all the endless chatter relating to…

Im 5'7 and currently wear a 4/5 long/tall depending on the cut. I have a Booty.......... and hubby says I cant lose it. I would like to be a loose 4 ultimately.............. but with my bone structure (after a 10lb baby) I dont know how much smaller the old hips will get....... lol

That sounds SOOOOO good!

I have the FT4 also and I think it is more accurate than other methods of calculating (i.e. treadmills or ellipticals). When I started counting on the HRM over the treadmill- the numbers were significantly off. I find that if I work harder I burn more- as soon as I start to get " the hang of something" my HR goes down and…

Absolutely NOT. If anything it is a REASON to do well in life. In fact, it is MY reason for exceeding what is expected of me on a daily basis. My childhood was atrocious on so many levels, and I am a BETTER person today BECAUSE of it..................... We all have a CHOICE...... I dont care what your situation is.

Just curious as to who insulted anyone??? If I had a nickel....

YES! It sure beats skin cancer and wrinkles.............. I use Estee Lauder and I really like it. No orange or streaks. It does smell though 9they all do) I use the Victorias Secret brand on my face and that doesnt smell as bad.......... Be careful with white clothes before you shower........... and make sure to exfoliate…

YAY- specifically speaking I love my Polar FT4. It gives me an accurate read so I can eat accordingly and it also gives me motivation to push harder. I look forward to seeing how many calories I can burn so it almost makes working out a little "fun" for me.

LOl I live in northern WI so Im in the same boat..... well that and I live "in the country" where it isnt always so fun to run outside to begin with... my favorite is when your eyes start to water from the -30 wind and it freezes to your face..... FUN STUFF I run on my treadmill in the winter- I am a wimp and I dont like…

I have a crazy career (way too much time at the office), I am a volunteer youth advocate, a mother, wife and I have 2 dogs and a home that doesnt clean itself to deal with..... Excuses are like A-holes every one has one and they all stink..... lol Im not trying to be sassy I used to be the same way. I just had to figure…

Listen- you are FAR from the only one that feels this way. In fact most women (myself included) do to some extent.......... I know that sometimes you just need to "get it all out" and I honestly hope that you feel better now that you did. But, from someone with experience, if you feel this way about your body now- there is…

This is very sad........................ And there is absolutely no good reason for it..... I agree that knowledge is power on this one, but willingness also plays a role..............

Fairly certain mine would NOT be a common one................... and of the names I do know I dont think I have any duplicates..... Wait- I have an Anna and an Ana..... So there you have it lol

Heck yeah- I think people my height who actually weigh more than me look smaller....... I think it might just be that we're wierd (my husband always asks me what kind of mirror Im looking in....) That OR the same amount of muscle (weight) looks smaller than fat.......

That would be meeeeeeeee and why is my question?

Well...... if you clean like I do you can burn a ton of calories. And YES my HRM tells me so. That being said- were not talking light dusting and such..... Im talking hands and knees scrubbing floors, up and down stairs with laundry baskets and so on..... for HOURS at a time. If your sweating your burning calories. Do I…

After MUCH research and a mistake the first time- I have the Polar FT4. I absolutely LOVE it. Not only do I love the idea of knowing how many calories I am actually burning so that I can eat accordingly, but I can also push myself more and see the results in black and white. Now, I first (becasue I was being a cheapo)…

Neither- motocross is little boy cute and soccer reminds me of David Beckham and I think he's gross lol......... can I say UFC and my final answer is Brock Lesnar????? :o)

Mine was taken on a beach in WI on a very cold day...... Brrr

I HAVE to listen to music. Luckily my treadmill has a plug-in and speakers for my ipod- but I dont think I would make it 10 minutes without music.......... I have zero patience for anything so it helps keep my mind distracted. I also find that doing a program on the treadmill- not sure if yours has that option- but it…

MSM is a supplement (google it) that is used for joint health all the way to melasma & allergies. It is supposed to be pretty amazing- I am actually surprised that no one knows what it is . Hmmmm Maybe I have stumbled onto something here..... haha

Well....... I only had a few to lose but I started at a 34D and thats exactly what I am now........

I eat it on veggie sandwiches or use it for dip with my veggies.
