>> The secret turns out to be that you can OWN IT at any size. If you really love your body and think you're sexy as hell, you exude that and people respond to it. << THIS! THIS is it. Im not young by any means... Im not young, and Im not a size 6 either, far from it. But I will tell you that I and quite a few women of my…

As others have said, its always easier to take in a dress (and bridesmaids dresses are NOTORIOUS for being oddly sized) than to let one out. Besides, you want to go to the wedding, dance, laugh and have a great time. You cant do that if the dress is too small and you are uncomfortable.

I dont know if its dangerous or not, but I would suggest that you and your parents make an appointment to visit a doctor and possibly a dietician to 1) find out if in the opinion of the doctor you need to gain a few pounds and 2) that you truly are eating healthy. That way both you and your parents understand what is…

When I have cravings like that, I try to distract for a bit. I take a walk and drink a bottle or water, or I will scrub the bathroom (I have the cleanest tub in town!), or call a friend and chat a bit. If, after a period of time I STILL want the bad food, I will allow myself just a bit.. MacDonald's French Fries for…

You will loose in the chest, just as you loose all over the rest of your body. For me, habitually, my chest is the LAST place I loose. I will loose everywhere else first, the boobs go last :) That may not be true for you however. A friend dieted and lost in the chest first :)

Increase your iron uptake about a week or so before your TOM. I found out years ago that it really helped with the cravings. I also would cut back on the caffeine which for some reason just made me moody as heck during that week. If I crave something I really dont need, I make myself wait 30 minutes.. and talk a walk…

HIm 5'8... and I once had a doctor tell me that at 180 I was obese. He also stated he didnt think I could loose the weight and would forever be in his term... "fat" Being the obstinate woman that I am I decided to loose weight and show him! 1 year later at 140, when I returned to him for a minor cold, he informed me he…

Each treadmill/elliptical is different. Most treadmills are calibrated for an "average" (whatever that is) stride. the stride is what works out the speed, and the speed is what burns the calories. Your weight will also effect the calories burned on a treadmill. Someone who weighs 250 is going to burn more calories than…

I have a large Belgian Malinois, a retired police dog. Even as well trained as Dutch is, he DOES NOT go in the yard unless on a leash. The only time he is off the leash is behind a 6 foot fence. That dog is going to end up getting killed, and its not the dog's fault, he was just being a dog. The problem is the owner.
