this happened to me a few backs and at the same time I started taking my measurements. Sure enough I was losing inches but not pounds (so I am assuming I was gaining muscle). Try doing that to see if you are actually making progress that the scale isn't noticing. Keep going it will move again :)

ugh!! I totally understand going through this now too!! it is very frustrating! I watch my salt, drink a ton and I take a diuretic for my blood pressure. I am up 3 pounds this week and it is all from the water - my fingers and ankles hurt and my ankles rub on my sneakers when I work out :( not fair!!!

Thank you, it helps to know I am not the only one. The nasal spray before and after seem to help and now its allergy season and I am taking claritin on a regular basis. I knew i was allergic to exercise I am supposed to be chubby - hahahahha :)

I have always struggled with this!! I still am, I lost the battle today with jelly bellies!! but i have gotten better, I am very choosy only eating the ones I really like, throwing the rest away - yes a huge waste of money I know but if I don't I will eat them. i workout out really hard (at least it is hard for me) putting…

HI! My title is Academic Support Specialist. I work for a large state college in a recruiting office for online classes. I like to get organized on Sunday afternoons, I make up lots of little baggies of snacks and things for the weeks lunches. I bring fruit, cut up into small bite size pieces, carrot and celery sticks,…

A little trick I used when first starting was to log my food before I ate it. Then when I saw how bad it would be ( I am a cheese freak too) it would stop me and help me make a better decision. Try to sit down and plan out a weeks menu and then shop for those meals and healthy snacks and don't buy what isn't on your menu.…

This morning on my way to work I had to drop something off to my son at college. As he walked up the car his friend with him said - hey I thought you Mom was dropping it off, my son said that is my Mom - the friend had not seen me since October. My son told me I looked gorgeous and that I was not allowed back on campus -…

same thing happens if I try to jog. a running coach told me this type of pain in the front of the hip and thigh are caused by a weak lower back and weak core. I have been concentrating on strengthing those areas before I attempt jogging again.

I have had really great success doing circuit training type workouts and kick boxing. Try finding Jillian Michaels 30 day shred or biggest loser last chance workouts. Also on YouTube you can find free videos like cafe moms and fitness blender or real hollywood trainer ( I love her workouts but they are hard!). Alot of…

I have struggled with this as well. My doctor recommended senokot as needed and said it was not "addictive". I drink plenty of water and have been exercising almost daily (87 day streak, yay!!) in the last week or so things have been improving (almost like my body has adjusted to all the changes). Berries have been the…

My son is a distance runner and he wears them on long runs. They are tighter fitting so they don't bunch and are made from materials that won't chaffe and help keep your feet drier. They do also have some additional padding because distance spikes are very light and don't have any padding. They also help support your arch.…

The pain in my feet is what drove me to start eating better and exercising. It was like I was walking on marbles every minute of every day. When I started working out I used Jillian Michaels shred - the impact was lower (she shows modifications for beginners) and I noticed results right away. Try introducing higher impact…

I will confess that I weigh myself a zillion times a day! It motivates me to be better about my eating and exercise - I know I am nuts. But here is what drives me crazy - it depends where I put my scale as to how much I weigh!! I can move it around my bedroom and it goes up and down 30 pounds! My husband says its because…

the bars are great tasting but they leave me feeling very bloated and gassy....the same with my family....we can only eat a couple a week but they are a good guilt free treat!

i want to run a 5k with my son this upcoming fall - thanks for the great motivation! My son will probably finish and then have to run half way back to find me but its a long term goal!!
-
AWESOME JOB!! I am going to work it tomorrow so I can catch you - I want to look that good!!
-
oh how I can't wait to have my own shopping spree!! i was so stuffed into the clothes I was wearing they are just finally getting loose on me now! I can't wait to pack it all up and give it away!!

Great protein, very rewarding and filling keep your portion about the same size as a deck of cards and enjoy! But watch the steaksauce or ketchup as they are loaded with sodium!!
-
I love to hate her! I am getting amazing results thanks to the workouts she designs, I have her picture on my computer at work so I don't cheat there and I can honestly here her telling me don't phone it in - work!!
-
I can't wait to enjoy shopping - you look awesome!
-
I find a good sports bra and one of those workout tank tops that have the built in support really hold the girls inplace for me!
-
move in together but do not go into debt together - no joint loans, credit cards, bank accounts, car loans, etc.... that way if it doesn't work out you can walk away,probably with a broken heart but at least not in debt up to your eyeballs!!

Cross trainers are not meant for jogging. You might try an Asics running shoe for jogging and running. Mizunos provide alot of support and have alot of padding under the ball of your foot - I personally do not like mine, I have the same issues as you and thought I would try them but if I try and do kickboxing or anything…
