Now THIS sounds good!!! :-)

Just try cutting back. My biggest issues is sugar as well. You either have to cut it back little by little or cold turkey. Is chocolate your biggest vice? If so, just limit it to chocolate and get rid of all the other "candy". KEEP THE FRUIT tho...the natural sugars arent as bad for you and the vitamins and minerals in…

^^Totally Agree!! I dont understand why people have to be so harsh. So of us have learned to respect our elders and it is hard to "not listen" to them or take what they say to heart. It takes some time but, we eventually learn. I think if you Respectfully sit down and talk with your mom, that should work. If not, one thing…

Help her realize that it isnt about weight or image but that it is about Being Healthy! I happened on this one day when I was home. It was on the Ricki Lake show... www.allstride.com/ This is a site specifically designed to help overweight children and their families. Again, it focuses on being healthy, not about image or…

^^THIS^^ I am in the same boat! The only thing we can do is get back to eating better (the cleaner the better), drinking plenty of water, maybe more then normal, and stopping the crappy eating & drinking. WATER is the main key in this too! CHUG IT!!!!

I have just about gotten through my first bottle. Have noticed a slight change in my hair (thinning because of Thyroid & hormone issues). Hoping it helps it to just keep growing, eventhough it is still coming out, just not as much as before. I wasnt taking enough when I started (only 2500 mg). Now I am taking the…

BUMP!!! I am very interested as well!! :-)

I have the same problem!! If I drink Diet Soda, it creeps in more...I also find that the more sugar I have the more I want. So, I try to limit it! Fiber One Brownies work well, along with throwing in some Fruit, since that is natural sugars. Sugar Free Gum, especially the Extra Dessert gum helps a lot as well. also,…

You just have to check with your office...some places dont allow them. But, they are a GREAT tool!!! I WISH I could have one!! :-)

POSTURE! I find this helps a LOT with me! :-) Agree with the Kegels as well!! :-) I may have to download that Office Fitness App!! :-)

To Each Their Own!! Also, it depends on HOW the relationship broke up, the length & the "strength" of the relationship, and quite frankly, HOW it changed you during the relationship. I was with someone for over a year and the break-up, eventhough it was a month or so in the making, it still took me about 3 months to just…

Agreed! Keep up your water, weight training along with the cardio, and moisturize! You may be one of the lucky ones that get rid of it all...I am hoping and praying but, if not, it is better to be healthy then to have it filled out with fat under it, right?!?! I am having an issue with POOCH skin, mainly from my pregnancy…

Put them somewhere you wont see them...OUTTA SITE, OUTTA MIND! I am having the same problem and, actually, we ARE throwing them out tonight. I have a few of a certain kind that i am giving away but, other then that, BUH BYE, in the trash...or outside for the Birdies...or with my step-daughter back to her Mommy's…

WOW!!! I was weighing and measuring once every 4 weeks becuase that was the duration of the schedule I was following. The program I am doing now is a 9 week program so, I am weighing in at the halfway mark and then re-measuring at the 9-week mark. Then, when the 90 days starts, I will start weighing/measuring every 4…

I took a 60 minute class twice a week, lost weight, and LOVED IT!!! As with anything, make sure you concentrate, when you first start doing it, on your form and doing things correctly and it will work well. AND, of course, add in your good eating habits and just the fact that it is movement will help.

You can add me...33, mom of 1 (and 1 step daughter), wife, full time worker... I am down 40 lbs (from when i started tracking) and looking to go another ~20...

When you go into your goals to change them, make sure you hit CUSTOM and not recommended...then you can change the percentages yourself. :-) My Home Tab...Goals...Change...Custom

I am reading some of these posts (i didnt read them all) and after re-reading YOUR OP, I think I understand what you are saying. What you are saying is not that he isnt into Fitness but, his lack of THRIVE for Life. I can understand how that can make you want to leave and/or make you want to do something about it. My…

Sounds like you are really motivated! I will add you also!!! LETS GET THIS!!!!!!!!!!!

AWESOME!!! GREAT JOB!

LOVE YA MIREYGAL76!!!!!!!!!!!!

^^Agreed. But I also agree that helping tone an area is a good idea as well. I also have back fat issues and would LOVE to know some back exercises as well. Part of my problem is a weak back, which could also be yours. Agreed that you cant spot reduce and diet IS key but, you can add muscle and tone to HELP with…

^^^^THIS!!!! And get a new Doctor! :-) 1000 Cal a day is WAY too low!!

AWESOME!!! Great Job!! Keep it up darlin!

^^^^^Great Idea!!!!!^^^^^^^^^^^ I would join you!!

Pay off everything (including getting a new house and 2 new vehicles) and then...GO TO DISNEY WORLD and do EVERYTHING I could!! :-) Oh, and visit my mom more often, since she lives in Florida!!

BUMP for later as I am thinking about it. I have dealt with a LOT of my demons of my past, not that there were that many, but to this day, I still have IMAGE issues... And Sandy, YOU ARE AN AMAZING WOMAN!!!! I LOVE the insight you have on things and this shows me how WONDERFUL a person you are!!! HUGS!!!!!

THERE YA GO!!! I am SOOOO working on this and find that when I feel confident, I am such a different person then when I want to crawl into a shell!! SPEAK IT GIRL!!!!

SAME HERE!!! If I have a deadline, that comes first. But, if it is jsut Busy work or something that needs to eventually get done, I glance around this place a bit here and there, check comments on my statuses, etc.

SideSteel is correct...you cant spot reduce but, you can build the muscle in that area to help. Fat will go away with diet...building the muscles will help tighten and tone which, in turn, will help with the "extra waving." Tricep Kick-backs have done WONDERS for me. Do a search for Tricep exercises and try a few...that…
