I can only use sports bras from Lane Bryant. I've tried a few different "specialty" sports bra out there, but LB is the only place that has ones that will contain the chicas. I have an un-wired and an underwire and while they both work great, I actually do prefer the underwire one. Also, they're pretty affordable being…

Doug - be safe out there. My father is on the job as well and it's the scariest time I've ever experienced. I can honestly say that this is scarier than 9/11.

As someone who has battle cervical cancer, I cannot stress enough the importance of this vaccine. I caught mine super early so I was able to not have to go through chemo, just had to have surgery. However, I've watch loved ones lose their battle so if there's a way to protect our daughters, ABSOLUTELY DO IT!

Sugar Factory! I think the Paris location closed last year, but I'm pretty sure they re-opened at Fashion Show Mall.

Yes. My husband and both of my daughter's are my perfect examples.

Coffee is my kryptonite as well. It's taken a long time, but I've got myself down to 1 cup a day. I use k-cups so they vary in flavor but my go-to is Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce (12-16 oz) with 2 tbsp. of International Delight Cold Stone Sweet Cream. Altogether it's 80 calories and you can put that over ice as well! The…

It really doesn't matter what wrist-based device you're talking about - none are as accurate as a chest strap that is actually detecting your heart rate straight from the source. Also, how is FitMom4Lifemfp's response "not what we're discussing"? The topic is about the inaccuracy of the Fitbit HR. Seems pretty on point to…

It's not a myth. The more frequent you eat in smaller portions the more you're keeping your metabolism going and keeping your body from storing anything.

Good luck with that. ;-) Who have the Raptors lost to in Games 1 & 2? And quite handedly I might add! ;-) And yes, y'all did hand it to Miami!

Cavs Country, Lebron City! Although my true love is LOVE!

I myself use EOs, but there are always going to be things that require modern medicine. For muscle aches I use a muscle cream made from Valor, Panaway Oil, Peppermint and Coconut Oil and it works just as well if not better than Biofreeze. The same for headaches, I can manage my headaches with EO's but for migraines, I do…

The unknown is always interesting. I grew up in NY and FL. I can remember seeing the Snowbirds from Ohio come down to FMB and always wondered what Ohio was like - imagined it was this pretty cool state. 18 years later, because my sister wanted to wear sweaters, I can tell you that while I don't mind Ohio, I would much…

O-H...

Much like you, I'm not simply eating the basic rolls like a California Roll, unless it's half price sushi night (Mondays). Basically, I just work my bum off when I know we're going out for sushi (or already had it for lunch) and earn those calories. I guess at the calories, so I usually try to earn 1000 calories just to be…

I compared my Fitbit HR with my Polar strap and they were both pretty close. That's the only reason why I am willing to rely on my Fitbit alone for hardcore cardio.

My calorie burn comes straight from my Fitbit. I am heavier though, so I'm going to burn more calories with less effort. There are days when I do burn 1000+ calories from cardio, however that's generally not all at once. It's a combination of my morning, midday and evening cardio. When my cardio calories get up that high,…

You're right, no one can make you feel "shame" but they can hurt you nonetheless. However, "shaming" is a verb - an act of trying to make someone feel bad about something. So don't try and blame the people who are being bullied/shamed, blame the jackholes doing it. And yes, you may not feel shame about something, but once…

I do not believe in shaming anyone for the size, whether it's "too thin" or "too heavy". However, I'm not going to pretend that being overweight is healthy - it's not. It's puts you at risk for too many things. I don't think people are or stay fat out of laziness though, I don't think that's the case at all. I think a lot…

Golden Delicious apple, almonds (1/8 cup) and a light cheese stick. It's my Fruity-Nutty-Cheesy breakfast! It's also my most filling and satisfying breakfast so it's often my go-to. 217 cal, 26g Carbs, 10g fat, 10g protein, 200mg sodium and 18g sugar

The biggest pain for me is the fact that I am the one cooking. I don't cook. I'm a great cook, but I don't cook. My husband does the cooking and he's so good at it. However, maybe that's part of the problem. I ate super healthy when I was single - clean & unprocessed.... I'm going to start cooking more! ;-) Glad I came…

That right there is your problem doll! You need higher CBD and much much lower THC.

Marijuana has wonderful medicinal benefits - no one should suggest you quit! If they do, they clearly don't know what they're talking and are simply being judgmental. My mother is an amputee and to combat the constant phantom nerve pain, she uses marijuana medicinally. However, her supply is very low in THC and very high…

I've been using a food scale for a few years now and I've always weighed my meats once they are thawed. Frozen meat is heavier than raw meat. If an item already has a weight on it, it wouldn't hurt to measure it once just to see how accurate the packaging is. I've found that some companies are a little "generous" with the…

It is sort of is the same situation. It's a parent saying no, plain and simple. My daughter has a dairy allergy and my mother did the same thing. Her specific words "Oh, a little bit won't hurt her!" Yes, it does. It causes her throat to swell and she starts coughing and wheezing - allergic asthma. The problem is the…

I'm not trying to be rude but, did you read the OP? That's her frustration - she's packing healthy snacks and providing specific instructions as to how often she's allowed junk food and they're not being followed. So, what exactly is there to feel sorry for her kids about? How is she powerless? If you're paying someone to…

I use Young Living essential oils to flavor my water (lime, lemon, grapefruit, etc). It's all natural and with zero additives! Look at that bottle of Mio - can you pronounce everything on that list? Probably not. I used to use them and I loved them, but when you think about what you're putting in your body when you squeeze…

Speaking for myself only, I'd say she's full of crap. I've put up a great front for all the years that I've been this way. It's been difficult to lose the weight due to health issues and any time I've ever expressed being unhappy, I receive an immediate "well, do something about it" from someone who has ZERO clue what it's…

It really is as simple as CICO. Look at Nutrisystem for instance. That's all processed food and people still lose weight using that meal plan. They tend to put it back on once they start having to eat normal food, but they lose weight nonetheless. So while you're obviously correct in that natural foods are always the…

It's the best money I've spent in a long time! I work in an office so it's very sedentary and having my Fitbit makes me look for ways to get those steps in. Now, I'm not banking near the steps that some others are, but for my line of work, I know I'm doing pretty well. Feel free to add me if you like! One thing I will say,…
