I used to take valerian all the time and its awesome.......you will get a great nights sleep. Stinks like dirty feet but it really is good!

Quinoa Nature's Path Pumpkin-n-Spice Flax plus Granola bars (at Walmart) Greek Yogurt I like the honey flavor string cheese

I should add I drank at least 4-5 cans a day!

I stopped cold turkey.....I was a huge Diet Pepsi/Diet Dr. Pepper freak. I stopped cold turkey and every time I wanted one told myself it made me feel bloated and it was terrible for me. I felt so much better when I gave up the diet soda and trust me you will too. I stopped smoking the same way..........Now I don't even…

Awesome!!!! Tape measure is also my friend....nice seeing those inches melt off!

Mine is also my coffee creamer addiction. I would jump for joy at a new flavor (and I still do!). I am also like you I limit myself to (2) cups of coffee and 3 TBL. of creamer only. I used to drink a pot of coffee/day with at least 1/2 cup of creamer eeeeks. I tried adding almond milk in my coffee and its just not the…

I would walk 5 miles for a beer some nights!!! I know it slows your metabolism, but thats why exercise speeds it up right lol.

This has me curious as well since getting my Polar FT7....I went for a 2 mile run last week and noticed when I was running against the wind or up a steep incline my heart rate was 180-190......I then started to brisk walk till it got in the 140-160 range. I got my HRM to track calories burned and I have to admit I am…

Here's a Protein Bar Recipe I got from a family member: I haven't tried it yet but she makes them all the time. 2 1/2 cups natural peanut butter (or almond butter) 2 cups honey 2 cups protein powder (I use vanilla) 3 cups uncooked oatmeal 1/2 cup chopped nuts (I use raw almonds) 1/2 cup dried fruit (I omit this as I am not…

GUILTY!!!! So so so so true!!

Its ok........I have also been measuring my hips the same as you. And I have been Measuring my belly from belly button around for my waist.......Well of course my waist is smaller than my belly. As long as you are staying consistent thats all that matters. I left my "belly" measurements for waist and then just keep waist,…

My skin is also getting terrible and it seems the healthier I eat the worse it has been breaking out. I did get a Tea Tree face cleanser at the health food store and it seems to be helping some. GOOD LUCK!

If you are getting migraines regularly than you should she a DR or Neurologist.

My diary is public and you can see what Vitamins I take daily listed on there. I have always had problems with my blood as I was born a blue blooded baby(weird I know). I have always been considered anemic and so starting my Carlson Blood Nutrients has been so good for me.

Your just going to have to dig deep and find your want again. I am an at home mom so I know its not easy at all but find workout routines you can do at home. You can do this for all the reasons you were doing it before. Just remember you might have lost a battle or 2 but not the war!!

I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I get a burning sensation on my hand from time to time. Like I am holding it to a flame kind of burning. I will hold it under cold water and it will feel better for a minute or so. It is so very uncomfortable at times and if I rub it, it will make it worse. I read it…

I love Just Dance 2 and I really wanted to know how many calories I was actually burning........then I got my Heart Rate Monitor(HRM). And I also write down all my exercises in a notebook for reference. Ok I am 158 lbs. 5'5" and 36 yrs. old.....just FYI. I did Just Dance 2 wearing my HRM for 28 min. on sweat mode Sweat…

My stomach is a mess of scars after a appendectomy my freshman year of high school. A tubal pregnancy that basically exploded and caused me to have my right tube removed between my 1st 2 boys. I have 4 kids....2 natural births and my twins were taken early via C-section. To make a long story short I was in the hospital for…
