The sound of cars driving by

Yes, yoga pants are the root to all evil. I wear mine for a while and then all of a sudden my jeans dont fit......WTH????

@Cindyc873 - your profile pic...great legs!

I must admit, it bothers me that in your last statement you are insinuating that I do not have experience and do not do research. I've done extensive research on this topic from all aspects and have years of experience. I didn't say it works for EVERYONE, nor would I try it with every client, but the ones that have done…

Your trainer is right! :-)

I call them and ask them to fax it to me or go over it on the phone with me. I've had some that tell me they don't have the information but they will cook anything I want, however I want it so I can pretty much put together my meal and know what the calories, fat, carbs, etc. are!

I don't believe this to be excessive at all. It works fantastic for me and I've yet to experience any issues with it. As a matter of fact, it's when I get the greatest results and so do our clients. The problem I see is that lots of people don't track calories in and calories out accurately and they experience lots of…

When dieting, I never eat my calories back...this nets a greater deficit. I stay at 1200 intake and 2200 expenditure. If my expenditure if greater than 2200, I will eat more but only enough to net a 1,000 calorie deficit per day. This will ensure a 2lb per week weight loss.

wow...lots of soda being drank everywhere...lol I was never a huge soda drinker but if I did drink it, it was never diet...I don't like diet anything. My poison was 2 vodka drinks at night once the kids went to bed. When I decided I wanted to lose weight, I cut out all of it. Now I only drink water (about 1 gallon a day)…

I personally would not be offended but grandma...not so sure!

hot stuff

I don't get that here on MFP but I do on Facebook all the time. DELETE and BLOCK!

I averaged 2-3lbs per week so depending on the month I suppose it could have been as much as 12lbs

It's a quit restrictive diet but I promise you that if you can stick to it, you WILL get results! Good Luck!

Playing devils advocate here...Sounds to me like this comment was simply stating an opinion. Not everyone loves tattoos and that's ok, just like some adore them which is also ok as well. Me personally, I don't have any and I will never get any. I think most tattos are beautiful but in my opinion they take away from the…

Thank you! Profile pic between 17-18%...currently I'm about 19% My abs still show if I flex but I have a little winter fluff...lol

Blue Bell Ice Cream...sigh! If it's in the house, you can bet I will have some

My goal body fat is 15-16% by mid March. My weight should be around 118 at that point.

Always tenderize your chicken breasts, they will retain moisture and be juicy and tender. I use a fork and poke millions of holes in it. Then I either soak in lemon juice for about 30 minutes , then dry season prior to baking or grilling. I will also soak it in beer sometimes and then dry season before baking or grilling.…

I recommend Miralax. It is flaxorless and can be mixed into any drink. I give it to my daughter who has always had problems going to the bathroom. Take it daily for a week or more if need be and then once you are no longer have issues, switch to a daily fiber. Also make sure you are drinking lots of water. My rule of thumb…

You can also do basic stretching while watching TV. I sit on the ground and spread my legs in a V and sit like that for up to 20 minutes. Or sit with your legs together and lean forward and hold your toes. The more often you do it, the more flexible you become. :-)

My rule: Everything in moderation! I switched from liquid flavored creamer to powder (10 cals per tsp) and switched my sugar out with Splenda or Stevia. I have 2 cups of coffee a day, each with 3 tsp's of creamer and 1 packet of splenda. Total calories from coffee is roughly 68. As for the caffeine, I don't worry about it…

I truly feel for you and your wife. For me personally, I would have gone to a different doctor. We had a similar incident with my mom where she had a stent put in for blocked artery and several month later was feeling terrible pain and numbness in the same foot. The stupid doctor would not do an ultrasound and said it's…

My family is hungarian so we call grandma "mama" and great grandma is "dedi mama". On my husbands side the kids call grandma "nana"

9 ;-)

Pay off my bills Pay off my parents bills Buy 3 houses (1 for me and my hubby and kids, 1 for my mom and 1 for my dad) Buy my dad and my mom each a new car Purchase all the new high tech equipment for my husbands photography business Buy a building for a photo studio for hubby with a private gym attached to it that I would…

I wear workout gloves so my hands don't get torn up. If I lift with bare hands, depending on the bar, it can tear the skin also cause calluses.

If a chicken and a half in a day and a half lays an egg and a half, how much does a pound of butter weigh?

Fat burners can help in conjunction with the proper diet and exercise program but if you don't do the work, the pills are a waste of money.

I was thinking the exact same thing...lol
