This sounds GLORIOUS!

Looks yummy!

I have never worn a bikini and I would love to wear one this summer.

If he's following you around everywhere you go and making you uncomfortable, tell the gym staff. They are there to manage the facility, and all the gyms I've ever belonged to have rules of behavior that the members are expected to follow. An appreciate oogling every now and then doesn't hurt anyone, but there is a line.

I tend to "fake it 'til I make it" as a coping mechanism, so when I feel shy or intimidated I tell myself the hell with that crap and pretend that I know what I'm doing. LOL Nobody has ever given my a funny look and the only comments I get are help if I ask for it. Also I might be biased since I'm an army brat and dating a…

You look like an hourglass to me.

I know hot guys who are shallow and superficial but beneath that they are good guys and I consider them friends. I am dating a hot guy who knows how to use his adorableness to every advantage but is considerate, smart, funny, and pretty dang awesome. That being said, I've also known a few doozies who make me cringe. They…

"Shake It Out" Florence + The Machine

Sounds delish. Thanks!

My boyfriend would LOVE that. Easy enough to leave out the extra bun and cut down on the sauce for mine. Thanks so much for sharing!

I won't cook two meals, but I do give consideration to what my boyfriend enjoys, just as I take what I enjoy into account when planning for dinner. I do most of the cooking, but he does most of the dishes so I'm cool with that. He's not a vegetable person unless the veggie is slathered in cheese. So I will eat steamed…

Thanks for the article, Acg67.

I log every day, even when I go over. After the initial shock of seeing how many calories I was eating, it has made my "splurging" here and there MUCH more reasonable. I know how much many of my splurge foods are calorie-wise, and I am able to eat in moderation even when I go over my goal. Before, I just went "the hell…

Just wanted to say I made this tonight - so delish. It was fabulous with the pork chops and my normally produce-phobic boyfriend ate his half in its entirety. Will definitely have to make again!

That. Looks. AMAZING. Will be making that with pork chops tomorrow night. Thank you for sharing!!

Fresh soy face wash & moisturizer. My sensitive skin's bff.

As long as I still have a fitness goal, I plan to use this site. Losing weight is only one goal of many.

Yoga classes are great and are my preference when I practice. I have done both classes and dvd. I will say, however, that the only time I've ever been injured has been in a class when I was very new to the practice (about a month). It was just a basic class for all experience levels, and I simply didn't know at the time…

I met my boyfriend on OKCupid. I'm gaga over him. We've been together for 2 years now. :)

I will drink a big glass of water first and wait about 15 minutes. If I still feel hungry, a hard-boiled egg with sea salt satisfies me. Then I brush and floss and close out my day.

I place salmon skin side down on a foil-lined baking sheet, sprinkle with lemon pepper (we like the Jamaica Me Crazy lemon pepper), then place thin slices of orange and lemon on top. Baking times vary based on the thickness of the cut - I actually prefer my salmon a little on the dry side so I back longer. When I take it…

Love this! Must get some stickers. Ooh, maybe even different different stickers for cadrio and strength. Lovely idea, thanks for sharing!

Try to go to a store and "play" with the kettlebells on display. Try a shoulder press and squat and see how the weight feels. Pick one that challenges you but isn't so heavy you won't be able to maintain form. I have 3 (10#, 14#, and 18#) since my lower body is much stronger than my upper body and using just one weight…

I jog with my boyfriend so it's a-ok for him to come into the room when I'm on the treadmill. But if I'm doing a DVD - especially a DVD with any sort of kicking or dancing - and there will be shrieking and item-throwing if I so much as see his shadow lurking around the corner. Bless him, he's a quick study.

I used Davinci sugar free syrups (can be found in the coffee aisle) - they taste great. I use to drink very "creamy" coffee, but these helped me transition pretty easily to creamer-free coffee.

I'm the same. When I was single I could eat what I wanted, when I wanted. Now, I really only do that at when I am at work during the week. The rest of the time I have to negotiate with my boyfriend about what is healthy enough for me to have but also satisfying for him. I eat a TON more protein because of him - not a bad…

Love spinach in my smoothies. My favorite is frozen mango, half frozen banana, and coconut water. Blend those together until smooth and then add in a big handful of spinach. It will make a bright green smoothie that tastes great.

Those are my downfall. So bad, and yet so, so good.

I am 5'9" with a medium frame and would like to get to 148. I'm currently at 178 and I definitely have some more to lose.

We like to brown our pork chops on the stove in a pan. Once brown, we put on a can of chicken gumbo soup and about 2/3 can of water and let it simmer for about 40 minutes, doing a gentle stir every so often to make sure it's not sticking to the pan. It is easy as all out get and delicious.
