Wow this post is super helpful! That original calculator I couldn't understand at all but the second one you posted was really helpful and easier to understand. That second one has the same calories/targets - would you alter that on days you work out?

Yep over here too. 3 Littles, work 60+ hours a week, exhausted... but this has to be my year! Yours too!

That is so cool!

All MLM means is that they market their products through PEOPLE versus having a retail storefront (and advertising costs). MLM isn't necessarily a bad thing - it depends on the people who are spreading the word. I've found that Arbonne people are generally low pressure and nice. I started out as a client because their…

I have several of the programs and a beach body coach that is really awesome and has become such a friend. I think in any business some people are pushy and some are doing it because they can not only support a family but they can also help people and do what they love. A pyramid scheme is a scheme where there are no…

Great suggestions guys! Will definitely move to a more 70% paleo and I think for the carbby carbs I'll try to stick to sprouted grain versus regular. MAHALO!

Sleep is pretty terrible. I have three little kids and am self employed so my brain never shuts off seems like. That is a GREAT question!

Super awesome - what motivation! Great job!

Maybe you can explain to me then why I gained 50 pounds in 2 months when I was 16 and went on the pill when there were no other changes in food and exercise? Medicines can certainly change the metabolism and mess with hormones. It's a fact. it has nothing to do with calories.

Aside from Bruno, I think John Cho is pretty hot too.

Mahalo's Red_Scorpio_w - couldn't get it to work.

Bruno Mars. Hotness right there...

I did CrossFit for a year and had to stop for a shoulder injury (an old injury). I had a REALLY fantastic box that wasn't too big with coaches that really cared (and still email to say hello!) and made sure things were done with correct form. CF can be really dangerous if things aren't done correctly - and I think with…

Right now it's some Locked Out of Heaven, Money Make Her Smile, Blurred Lines, Bebot ... anything upbeat!

Gorgeous smile!

I guess it depends on what you're eating. If you eat a big leafy green salad with a nice piece of fish that's a pretty awesome meal and banking about 250 calories. But if you have a peanut butter and jelly sandwich it can easily hit 500 calories.

Congratulations! What a major accomplishment!

So incredibly inspiring! I have always felt like this stretchy skin will never go away!

We're the same height! I know how it feels to gain some back. I got down to 177 and then got lax and up to 198. YOU CAN DO IT!

Wow what an accomplishment! Awesome!

Wow what a fantastic motivation! Great job!

I've had PCOS since I was a teen - it's been HELL! Honestly, the only way I was to EVER lose any weight with PCOS (I went down from 252 to 192 myself this way) is to keep an eye on hormonal elements. PCOS is an edocrine disorder and we have way too much estrogen. And the bummer about it is that estrogen is everywhere! So…

I just joined today and OMG talk about INSPIRATION. Hot Mama!
