This may sound strange, but I am definitely pear shaped (and always have been!) and I saw the biggest difference in my hips and thighs when I did Jillian Michaels' 30 Day Shred. I lost inches out of my thighs and hips within the first week! It's a whole body workout, and I did see changes everywhere, but those areas lost…

I have fibromyalgia as well, and as one of the previous posters said...I had to back off and take a deep breath on the "sham" comment. The follow-ups on it do not make it better. For those who don't know, fibromyalgia can quite literally, steal your life. Every female on my mother's side of the family has it, and it…

I'm in!

This ^^ Having always been "the fat friend", I'm ready to be the hot one for a change! Sure, I can find plenty of guys willing to sleep with me (thanks, cleavage!) but sleeping with me and DATING me are two totally different things! Also, as for the clothes...who designs these things?? 95% of the clothes for plus-size…

Yes! Kashi Go Lean Honey Almond Flax is my current addiction--- with the Silk Very Vanilla Soy Milk. Freaking awesome!

I usually can be counted on for 8-12 pounds each time...it's great to see the scale when that (and hopefully more!) jumps off, but it's HORRIBLE to see it jump ON overnight!!

Age: 29 Height: 5"3" (ish!) Starting Weight: 252 Current Weight: 230 Goal Weight: 150

Having had both hamsters and chipmunks for pets, I can tell you that when you outwork your hamsters you can safely move up to chipmunks. They run much faster and have much sweeter dispositions.

I don't DISLIKE the plank moves...but I will say, I think that level 1 was harder for me than level 2 is, but I seem to work up more of a sweat doing level 2 if that makes any sense!

I have a thing for Jif Creamy. That's why I thought I'd try this stuff and see what I thought. It doesn't replace it for me, but I think it is a lower calorie alternative for those days packing a "real" lunch would take too long!

Me too. I find I'm not only extra-thirsty DURING the workout, but all day long before and after. I guess that's good-- must be my body needs it! Someone on one of the boards here told me that was because your body needs extra water and retains it to help rebuild muscles and I'm sure we're all building muscles on this…

^^ This!!

I'm 5'3"-ish (okay, so I slightly round up because it makes me feel better) and fluctuation between 230-235 right now. I'd say we're pretty close!

Also AWESOME in a sandwich! Adds some bite and a little texture to my pita with pastrami!

Oh God...Speculoos Cookie Butter!! It's crack in a jar! Forget about the bread...eat it with a spoon!!

I have this same exact problem!!!

I really like VitaTops...or any of the Vitalicious.com products, actually. I tend to stick with the VitaTops most often though, just as a personal preference. They are 100 calories and tons of fiber & protein, and other vitamins you need as well...and they come in Chocolate. Multiple options of chocolate. It feels like a…

I took phentermine for about 9 months. During that time frame I went from happy and looking healthy (overweight, but good color, well rested, good quality skin and hair, etc) to looking like I was dying, and feeling like I wanted to kill everyone I interacted with. It took a few months to notice, but it DEFINITELY impacted…

I do not have any experience with polio, but I can tell you that I have had fibromyalgia since I was very young. It runs in my family-- all of the females on my mother's side have had it for at least 3 generations that I know of. As much as it hurts to get up and move every morning, and anytime I stop moving, I know that…
