There is a video on YouTube with Jillian Michaels that talks about helping with cravings. She says when you are really crave something brush your teeth or use those Colgate Wisps. if you are on the go.

Hi, I am north of you (in Torrance). I hope you are liking this site as much as I do.

My sister and nephew both ate them. My nephew was recently vaccinated against it and his pediatrician said there is nothing to worry about. My sister's doctor told her to come in and get the vaccine since it had been a few years since she had one. Crazy stuff!

The amount of support on here verses FB is amazing. My "friends" on FB just want to start drama, gossip or just want to brag about only their great things. I only ever post links (typically from Buzzfeed) or fluff like that. Complete strangers on here care more about what is going on with my health than friends. My true…

Friend request sent. I need to loose 100+ also and I think it helps with as much support as one can get. Anyone can request me.

Thank you! Nice to know how much I am approximately burning.

I started it today. I definitely felt the burn. 29 days more to go. We can do this! I just have to figure out how to log it, i.e. the exercise diary.

I am starting tomorrow. I had tried Level 1 other day, but tonight I made sure to buy the correct weights. I plan on doing it straight for 30 days, helps that I have something planned for July 4th and would help to be a bit more in shape. Good luck to us all.

A friend of mine has been overweight most of her life, last year she did a lifestyle change and is in better shape than ever before. She recently ran a 10k (her first) and instead of being proud of herself she was bummed that the scale did not reflect that accomplishment. For me, personally, I am just focusing on going…

Smoothie - almond breeze, spinach, blueberries, peach, broccoli (tried something new today), ground flax seed and a little honey. It was very filling and tasty. I can never taste the spinach in my smoothies, but I was trying to add more veg and I might have added too much broccoli.

Request sent. I am going to turn 35 this year and I have decided that I am done with being this person. I need to take care of myself because no one will do it for me. I have over 100 to lose, but I am taking it one day at a time and looking less at the numbers and more how I feel. Anyone can add me. We are all in this…
