  • Strava is a phone app that does that.
  • do face muscle exercises and don't let a skinner face stand between you and your weightloss goals! http://www.fitnesshealthzone.com/exercises/facial-exercise-to-tone-the-face-muscles/
  • A kindergartener once told me that I had butterfly wings. Not as bad as calling them flabby arms but still embarassing as all get out. Dumbbell exercises have been most successful for me, but try to do them every night. The repetition is what maintains their contours and shapeliness.
  • I can (kind of whistle) but I cant do chin ups. OMG its terrible. How does one start to learn how to do chin ups!?
  • Yes I know exactly what you mean! I feel like even though I can pull off a nice pose in pictures, no one knows what lies beneath. Mix in more strength and interval training and be blessed that you're photogenic!!!
  • Eat a little salad ahead of time and as soon as you get there go straight for water. Sometimes we mistake thirst for hunger.
  • Well she said she was a ballet dancer. From what I understand that in order to dance professionally, sometimes you have to be extremely lean to be flexible, lifted, and light on your feet... what do other dancers do to stay in shape and to be on the lighter side of their BMI?
  • Have a lot of variety in your diet. I'm a firm believer that strength is developed with all nutrients, not just protein or potassium. The standard protein rich foods are textured vegetable protein, any sort of legume, soy proteins, almonds and other nuts, etc. Its helpful to balance these foods with other nutrient rich…
  • If you keep eating it the yogurt will eventually taste sweet. Once you go back to sugary yogurts you're going to think they're gross and wayy to sweet. Keep trying at it with the greek yogurt. Your tastebuds are in shock from eating so much sugar in your typical yogurt (30g of sugar vs 9g) but it will pass if you keep…
  • AMEN! I am in the same boat currently, but I'm not expecting anyone to pay off my loans. They are MY loans. MY responsibility to pay them off. People don't realize they can start paying them off as soon as they are in school and that you can pay over the alloted payments. Thinking "loans are too complicated" is just silly…
  • so for me, someone who's still in school and has started paying off my loans- do i get a refund? I'm responsible for my paying off my loans I'm not an advocate of having other people get a break.
  • i bought two dresses the other day (lost 33 lbs) and they fit just a little bit tight. That way when i reach my goal weight they'll fit :)
  • i think the Chobani is really great with frozen strawberries that have thawed and a pinch of slivered almonds on top. I'm a big advocate of just looking at the ingredients and compare them to other yogurts on the shelf: Chobani: cultured pasteurized nonfat milk, live and active cultures: (Bifius and L. Casei, L.…
  • Typically when I make a quiche, instead of putting extra fillers or more of a crust, i like to line the bottom of my quiche with quinoa then use egg whites, spinach, mushroom, etc to fill that baby up!!
  • hmm turnip greens and kale are great to just pull out of a bag for yourself. 1 cup boiled is around 29 calories. Top it with some gouda cheese (100 cals/per slice) and have a side of boiled snow peas (35 calories per 3/4 cup) and a protein like chicken, vegetarian meat, or lean turkey
  • @ Blueeyed1985 Ellen Page shes my fav
  • - apples - eggs -almond milk - spinach - baby carrots
  • I ran my first half marathon in November. I was NEVER a runner in high school. I HATED running. In my high school yearbook they would have named me least likely to run a half marathon. Over the course of a year I would go out on beautiful days and just say, man I wish I could run in this beautiful weather. And so I did. I…
  • vegetarian for 2 years. main consumption of dairy products are greek yogurt, labni, eggs, and fine cheeses. no milk.
  • MAD MEN ALL DAY. its addictinggg
  • yeah running has helped on losing fat around my middle. power walking uphill also helps losing lower belly fat. a mix of cardio and weight lifting really. so for example, run a few miles one day and then on your off day do strength training. do low weights and high reps. Also-- going around a track and doing a series of…

  • use cooked pumpkin instead of potatoes?
  • ugh yeah I am the worst with late night eating. Its pretty much the death of me. Try drinking water or simply going to bed earlier. try to wean yourself off of late night eating. If you do it once shame on you, if you do it twice shame on you again! Tea is a good idea decaf. maybe a couple of cups of water might help.
  • THIS ISNT ABOUT YOUR SISTER THIS IS ABOUT YOU, LOSING WEIGHT TAKES DEDICATION AND HARD WORK AND IT CAN BE DONE WITH THE RIGHT FOCUS. WHO CARE WHAT SHE SAID, IT IS EASY FOR HER TO SAY MEAN THINGS BECAUSE SHE HAS NEVER BEEN IN YOUR POSITION. YOU CAN DO THIS, DONT GIVE UP!!!!!!!!!!!!! ALSO GO LOOK UNDER SUCCES STORIES TAB, IF…
  • im totally stealing that pumpkin brownie recipe! thanks for posting!!
  • You really need to keep things in perspective. Maybe you should set mini goals for yourself. For example, maybe you should sign up for something like a half marathon or a 5k or a bike race. You should sign up for something competitive because at the end of your time frame, you have to have a deliverable ie. you need to…

  • Is there a kitchen in the dorm at all? It might be helpful to make meals at the beginning of the week and put them in tupperware in your mini fridge. Make sure you have small snacks on hand if youre hungry. What is the dorm set up like? If you have a kitchen then this might be do-able. Or even better, do you have access to…
