  • If I were her I'd be miffed to. Bob got to pick all the biggest guys for the blue team and it affects her team because they don't feel like they can match up to blue. Which is totally understandable. I would feel the same. We all know how it works. A husband and wife go on a diet together. They eat the same, work out the…
  • Does anyone know any type of natural pill or something that can assist in jumpstarting your metabolism? (I feel like I have the slowest metabolism out there) Also, I want to start getting up earlier in the mornings to do my workouts and be able to have breakfast and pack my lunch but I have a really hard time falling…
  • I've seen this dating topic on the board a few times and was curious what it was so I checked it out. I've read a few things in the posts about your low self-esteem issue, which unfortunately a lot of men and women suffer from. I was given the best advice from a friend of mine when I was having troubles too as I've had…
  • I quit last June for the same reason. I want to see my kids grow up. It felt guilty everytime I had a smoke and decided that it was selfish of me to smoke and quite possibly cause my own death and leave them years earlier that I might have to. Plus, I didn't want them to see me smoking and influence them to smoke also. I…
  • I take two flaxseed pills daily for my psoriasis and have been for quite some time. I haven't noticed it reducing the bloating. Maybe if I did combine it with the sesame for the second half it might help? Anything worth a try. I don't put salt in or on any of my food and don't eat too much processed foods so that wouldn't…
  • I get extrememly bloated when, I'll say when Aunt Flow, comes to town for her monthly visit (LOL). My stomach expands so much I feel like I'm a couple of months pregnant. I know it always goes away in a few days, but it's a bit discouraging when you wake up one day and you pants are feeling a little more snug, even though…
  • Getting away can be good for you. Even if it is a business trip, its time away. When you're in another town its great because you can get breaks at home but they're never long. There's always dishes, laundry, etc. When you're in another town there's nothing. Its actually a break. Plus when you get home after a few days…
  • Okay, thanks everyone. Good tips. I do drink milk, I just didn't add drinks in there. I'll take a drink of milk here and there throughout the day. I try not to drink too much though because I have two young boys and am still buying the Homogenized milk which is super high in fat. I think I find it hard to eat so much…
  • How does everyone manage to get in their recommended daily calorie intake? I feel like i've been eating all day. My daily intake is 1,340 and with what i've eaten today i'm only at 951. Today I've eaten: Breakfast: 1 slice of whole wheat toast with peanut butter and a banana Mid morning snack: 3 strawberries Lunch: Bowl of…
  • Just try to remember how good you felt when you saw how much weight you lost, the comments people made to you and just how much happier you felt in general. I also was doing great for a while, lost some weight, then came Christmas as well as a bad cold and BAM I was off the work out wagon! I've just started up again,…
  • This topic came up right when I was going to look for it. Exercising, calorie counting yadda yadda yadda. It's all greek to me. Can someone help? What's the BMR number you're all mentioning? So my info says that my net calorie goal is 1,340, today I burned 592, minus what i've consumed 623, and it says calories remaining…

  • As with most people once you've been with your partner for a certain length of time, it seems that you both start gaining a little bit of weight together. It doesn't help when you both have terrible eating habits. I've been with my boyfriend for 3 years. We have two kids together. Since I became pregnant with my second…
  • My thoughts are there's a difference between eating one donut and the whole box. Don't kick yourself over one. When there's nothing but crumbs and icing sugar left over in the box, start kicking away!
  • I've had my thyroid checked after having each of my kids. With both my boys right after I had them, within three months I gained 20 lbs. And its just impossible to lose. I didn't lose my first son's baby weight until he was about 9 months and I went to herbal magic. I couldn't afford their recommended pills so I just…
  • Have you noticed results from walking? I walk to work 5 days per week, half hour to and half our back. And I'm talking speed walking so fast I feel like i'm gonna trip, plus weekend walks to the park pushing two good sized boys in a stroller but haven't notice any results. I've been doing it for three months now.
  • Hi. I am a 25 year old mom to two boys. I've had a really hard time losing my second babies weight. He is now two and I am still 30 pounds over what I was when I got pregnant with him. Even then I was about 10lbs overweight for my size. I think its all in my chest : ) I'm sick of being this big and am very depressed over…
