Totally honest? There are "things" I'd like to do with my man in bed that I need to be in shape in order to be confident enough to do. Also when someone told me that I look like Jill Scott a while ago. I think Jill Scott looks like a fat teddy bear. That was my last straw.

I wouldn't, cardio is like weight lifting for your heart. You want to be strong there too.

Feel free to add me if you wish. I'm glad to offer any support I can :-)

Indestructible by Disturbed is my favorite Stricken by Disturbed is 2nd Down with the Sickness by Disturbed Obviously I'm a Disturbed fan

Sure, feel free to add me. I'm always game for helping to motivate others in this journey :-)

Instead of going out why don't you cook for the two of you and let him buy the ingredients? Or, have him take you out to a place that specializes in serving healthier food. Instead of just going out to eat why not tell him you would love it if you two jogged or played tennis together? Make your dates active, instead of…

I work my *kitten* off at the gym because the cravings are stronger than the hand of God!

All ya'll @sses wrong for that LOL

I confess that I do follow her in the media and I watch Keeping up with the Kardashians. I enjoy the unity of their family, and I think that she was wronged by her boyfriend who put the sex tape out there. She took a negative and personally embarrassing experience and flipped it and is now making a ton of money from it.…

I thought I was the only one that this happens to, nice to know I'm not alone :-)

I can run a mile without stopping now, and I can do camel pose during yoga.

LOL here here!

Yes I gain about 4-5 pounds the week before it starts, then it goes away once its over. I hate it, its awful!

I used to workout without one. I would log my time in MFP and thought I was burning so many calories. A friend on here bought one and posted about it, and that got me thinking maybe I should get one. I got a Polar FT4 and since I've been using it I now know what I'm really burning and let me tell ya it ain't what MFP was…

For me it was awkward because I just don't want to see other women's parts, and when I joined my gym and started using the locker room it was culture shock for me. I still don't want to see other women's parts, even if they are in shape. I do undress now at my locker instead of making a b-line to a stall because I just…

I'd love to offer my support. Feel free to add me :-)

They are, they don't have the hormonal issues we have and they have more muscle too. Its not a fair game at all :-)

:smile:

Tan the rest of your legs so they match LOL. But seriously, as African Americans some of us just have multi toned skin so its not that easy. You can try a lightening cream, but most of those don't work that well. Is the skin darker because of eczema? If so, a cortizone cream could help with that. Try Cocoa butter too.

You can add me if you'd like :-)

I fear it right now because I'm trying to lose weight and sugar zaps my energy so I don't feel like working out. It also dehydrates me quickly and its extra cals that are not really giving me any nutritional value. I like sugary foods, but they don't mesh well with what I'm trying to do right now in my life.

You can still have the foods you love but just not as much. Lifestyle change means you do things differently, and if you're depriving yourself a lot just to lose weight then you will fail. You have to get some balance in your life and start exploring foods that taste good to you but with less fat/calories then start…

I couldn't agree more

LOL

People who arrive at the gym knowing damn well they already stink, then want to workout right next to you.

Feel free to add me

I understand your disappointment, you can add me if you'd like.

Chocolate of any kind is my trigger and I choose to not buy or keep it in the house. When I must have it I go and buy just enough for one serving.

Thanks ladies! You guys are awesome :-)

You can do it girlie!
