I live an hour south of you. :) Hopefully next year I will be at USM.

I find that to be very sad.

There was some big drama about Abercrombie awhile back. I don't like going into their stores because it's like drowning in perfume and cologne. As for Subway, they have tons of things on their menu that are not healthy and that's probably what they choose versus the low fat menu. Where in MS are you?? I'm in Picayune.

If you really want to cleanse, do an all vegetable juice fast. Nothing can compare to what that can clean out. All of those products out there on the shelves (like most products) are useless and contain crap that is no good for you. Just eat cleaner and you will feel better. :)

I think it may be the hardest because people don't realize how much diet plays into the adominals. it is very difficult to cut out a lot of the normal food we eat and eat tons of veggies and fruit. Doing that has worked the best for me. I can actually see a 4 pack now. Since I eat so much veggies and fruit now, I hardly…

I eat quite a few snacks during the day. The only reason I can do that is because I only snack on fruits, veggies, and nuts. I'm big on real homemade fruit smoothies and homemade vegetable juices. It doesn't really take up a lot of calories, either.

You would have to do it for 8 hours+ a week. I am a hoop dancer and it hasn't really done much for my mid section, and I used to practice 4 hrs a day. Getting rid of the fat there with HIIT and weights is what had the best results.
-
You can't work on specific area; it has to be an all over fat reduction. The more you work out with cardio/weights and eat the proper foods (heavy heavy heavy veggies and fruit, very limited processed food) the faster it will go down and those handles will become smaller and smaller. ooo and water. :) Drinks lotsa water.
-
Any workout from Muscle and Fitness: Hers. I am especially fond of the dumbbell renegade pushups, chin ups, military presses. Honestly, any arm workout with considerable weight (Don't use pansy 2-3 lbs weights...I'm up to 20-25 right now.) should do the trick.
-
Less processed stuff, more clean foods. Replace a lot of your processed food with fruits and veggies. Are you drinking enough water? I've noticed once I got rid of all the 'crap' food and replaced it with fruits and vegs I've not only felt better but the pounds have fallen off. take a look at my diary if you'd like and…

great example of how it effects everyone differently. I cried my eyes out and was injured a lot more on depo. I would be doing something and just burst into tears for no reason. Me and another girl on my ship (In the Navy) would do the same thing. I quit that stuff as soon as I could.
-
It all depends on how your body reacts to it. Everyone is different. Some gain weight, others don't. I was on the Nuva Ring for 5-6 years and I loved it...I didn't gain weight from it; I gained weight from being lazy. I'm no longer on it (I had a blood clot; not from the birth control, from genetics.) and actually use no…

http://bodyshapestyle.com/2008/04/26/what-body-shape-am-i/ I am a pear because my hips are wider than my upper body...I am a small up top and large on bottom. For a good example of what real women look like at certain weights and body shapes, go here: http://www.mybodygallery.com/

Static trapeze class has really given me results. it's also motivated me during the week to do exercise I'd never have considered doing; chin ups, pull ups, etc.
-
Abs are made in the kitchen. If you eat cleaner, for example I replaced all of my snacks with fruit and veggies, it will help out a lot. Crunches only do so much. But for overall toning, I'd say find a workout in a magazine or online, stick with it for awhile, they try another one. thankfully, M & F: hers only comes out…

Hey darlin....I noticed when i got rid of processed stuff and ate only veggies n fruit for snacks...the weight has been falling off. I was at a 3 month plateau and I finally said screw this and dove head first into eating clean-er. It has done wonders. And when I eat fruits and veggies, i get to eat more food. My weekday…
-
Hardcore workout or just general? Online I don't know, but I read Muscle and Fitness: Hers. They have one long workout every two months in the mag. it's done wonders for me and I only do it three times a week. It kicks my butt though. Helped me learn static trapeze.
-
Tee hee I hoop dance. :) I've been doing it for 9 months now (I think) I love it! :) I also do fire and LED. :) (The link to my vids is on my profile)

I have factor V Leiden and May-Thurners (My illiac vein collapses onto my artery and cuts off blood flow.)
-
Nuts? Fruit? Peanut butter? My go to is Skinny Cow ice cream. :)
-
585 is really low. I would eat a pbj sandwhich or something to add some extra cals there.
-
lol When I used to try to run with my dog, he always dragged me when he chased squirrels. :)
-
Not eating all of your cals is fine if you don't do it all the time. Just make sure you get closer tomorrow. Cute doggy by the way. :)
-
If we could see your diary that would help. :)
-
I heart boca and morning star. Most people think I'm crazy when I eat them almost every day, but they've never tried it!
-
I have to agree with therobinator. You actually, for your height, are considered underweight according to the BMI calculator. But a calculator just knows numbers, not people. What it sounds like is that you want a new challenge. Take some sort of aerial class. I take static trapeze and aerial silks. It's an amazing workout…
-
If and when I do run hard, I tend to listen to rock. 30 Seconds to Mars, Sevendust, Prodigy, System of a Down, Drowning Pool....all keep me going. lol I think it helps to have someone screaming at me to do my best and break through my confort zone. But when I am not doing anything too difficult and am just out for a nice…
-
I'm so sorry that happened to you. :( It's happened to me before to and it really does hurt. I hate how they throw around 'are you anorexic'.....just because you are skinny does NOT mean you are anorexic. If only I could choke everyone that said that....but, I digress... I think you look fantastic and are at a normal…
-
I am also iron deficent and have to take two pills a day. Oranges and strawberries also contain tons of vitamin C. Take the pills with those fruits and it will help your body absorb the iron better. As for the swelling....I would go see a doctor. I waited to go get my leg checked out from swelling and come to find out I…

OMG love your photo!!! And to answer the question above from the orignal poster, just eat enough fiber and you don't even need to cleanse; fiber does it for you. They are just a way to sell crap you don't need but think you need.
