Haha! You get up early one morning and then the next and so on. You just gotta do it. Once you get in a routine of it, you want to get up cause you know how good it makes you feel! It's just getting started that's hard. I have recently fallen off the exercise wagon and trying to get back on!! I know I just have to make it…

Thanks you!!! Can't wait to try some of these websites!

Looking good in everything I try on and not having a spare tire to ruin my outfit!! :0)

I have the same problem and it drives me nuts!!! But unfortunately, it is not only with chocolate, but most sugary treats!! I have told myself on numerous occasions that I am just going to quit eating sugar. I have lasted a few days and then I actually FORGOT that I quit and ate cake or candy. Who forgets????!!! So each…

I just got an F6 yesterday and love it. I got it off Craigslist for a 1/3 of the price and its been used once. I know I only got it yesterday, but I love it! Like others said, mine has a detachable strap that is washable.

I don't think you have to do a Jillian Michaels excercise routine everyday, but as we all know, exercise is good for you and will help with a lot of ailments and health issues and generally just help you feel good. It gets your endorphins going and helps with your body's functionality. Now, after saying that, walking is…

I love this!! I may have to do something like this too!! Thanks for sharing!

I love to read! Always have. I do tend not to finish books if they don't keep my interest, and maybe a third to half the books I pick up, I never finish. I prefer reading to tv and love to read before bed. I read anything that will make my life more positive: how to books, inspirational, spiritual, Christian fiction,…

Thanks Bobbi!!

THANK YOU for actually answering me!! I was getting so frustrated that everyone just said "terrible". I used to drive the 405 and there are times it's not so bad! Even on a Friday!!

WOOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!! What an inspiration you are to us all!! Great job!!

Thank you everyone!! Everything you said was very helpful. I am getting a HRM tomorrow and am excited to start seeing how many calories I actually burn!

Thanks Jesa!

Wow!! I love pictures that show such a difference!!! You are beautiful and your doing great!!!

That's awesome!! Thank you!!

I sleep with a noise maker in my room because I am such a light sleeper. I love it cause it blocks out the noise outside the room or at least hushes it. If I don't have it on, I wake up at the slightest noise. I suggest you put one (on her side of the bed) in the room. It may take a few nights to get used to, but may be…

Ahhh! I use splenda in everything!! I thought it was better because it was made from sugar. Guess I better switch to raw or stevia/truvia! Thanks for posting!!

There are a lot of foods that make people gassy. I have heard fruits like strawberries give some people gas. Definitely broccoli and cabbage do. Beans (obviously), but humus is really gassy. Whey will. I had one sip of my husband's whey shake and my tummy hurt from it. I'm sure your body will get used to it. I would google…

... you start adding up how many minutes you will have to exercise later to get those calories you just had to eat, while you are eating them! ... you sit and hit the refresh button after a post you did instead of doing something else in the meantime and coming back later to check.

I use it in place of cheese in my enchiladas to make them healthier. I still sprinkle cheese on top, but use it inside. You can sub it for cheese in a lot of things! I was working in a restaurant for a time and one of the dishes was a pesto pasta dish, if you like pesto. They put veggies like onions and zuccini (you can…

We all have bad days! If I were you, I would go on like a 20-30 minute walk. It probably won't take all the calories off, but it's doing something and you may even feel better! If it makes you feel any better, the other day I had 2 cupcakes and lemon meringue pie! I didn't even gain, so I don't feel guilty! I went on a…

That's awesome~!!! Great job!!!

I work out first thing in the morning and I do it to a workout dvd, so I don't have time to wait 30-60 minutes. I eat a half a banana or some other fruit right before I workout and it works for me. I feel sick if I don't eat anything before.

They can be dangerous for your heart. Don't take them, just eat healthier and less. Diet pills can be very bad. They will mess with your whole sysem, it certain cases you may get addicted and when you stop, you gain the weight back. I suggest doing it the healthy way!

Your awesome!! Thank you!

Welcome! You are going to love this site!!!

I love fish and it's really easy. I usually just pick one, put it in a pan with a little olive oil, garlic salt and bake it 10 min per side (for a thick piece) or 10-12 min for thin at about 380 degrees. do the same with some asparagus, carrots, squash, zuccini and make some rice. I do that a lot!!

I am guessing most people jumping rope will get tired after 10 minutes! That's a long time! I have a 2 year old and I watch her go all day, jumping, squatting, running, laying down and getting right back up, over and over. It's amazing what kids can do!! But if you can jump rope for 10 minutes, your doing good, girl!!!

I would eat a Ben & Jerry's pint every night. Whenever there was cake or ice cream, I'd have at least 2 large peices and as much ice cream as I could without trying to be too noticeable! If we had frosting in the fridge, I would just eat that by itself. I would also take a bowl of peanut butter and a bag of chocolate chips…

I have a 2 year old and I do Jillian Micheals 30 day shred (20 minutes) at 5:30 am before my daughter wakes up and sometimes after she goes to bed. I like to take walks too!
