HELLO! and WELCOME!! I'm from North NJ, and used to work in the city too. Walking back and forth from W57th to Port Authority kind of jump started my weight loss. GL to you!

[/quote] People tolerate carb differently. [/quote] ^^THIS!!! I find that if I keep my carbs under 100g/day and consume carbs mostly from vegetables and such, I feel much better (i.e no bloating, no spike in my blood sugar, not feeling hungry soon after a meal, etc.) I did feel crappy the first 3days until my body adjusted…

@AlishaGates 185 ..sorry can't type today, wrote a 4 instead of 1 and you are certainly not that!!!

The chain length makes a huge difference when it comes to what is considered "bad" or "good" fat in terms of how your body breaks it down. While I am not arguing that coconut oils is mostly saturated fat, the fact that it is a medium chain triglyceride allows it to be broken down much easier when compared to long chain…

I guess we are all in the same boat with this heat! We should start a Hot Yoga group, this seems to be the 'it' thing for yoga now.

I think this person is jealous. Why would they need to point out what you are doing wrong when they themselves are not practicing what they preach? Do your thing, and next time, they say something to you let it be in one ear and out the other.

Shemar Moore from Criminal Minds...his abs are like cobble stones....

^^This. Furthermore, you are a paying customer and if they want business from you (or anyone else for that matter) in the future, they should have ordered that for you. It's also unprofessional for the sales associate to say that about your size.

You can use it as both.

Brazil Butt Lift...its a comprehensive workout program with cardio, abs, total body strength training and lower body workouts.

Some ideas: Shoulder Press Side Raise Hammer Curls Reg. Bicep Curls V Raise Tricep Extension Push ups Tricep Triangle Push ups Chair dips According to Tony Horton, 8-10 reps for size, 12-15 reps for lean. Make sure the last 3reps are difficult to do without compromising form. If they are easy, get heavier weights. Good…

Not at all. My 7th grade PE teacher told me that working out actually helps with the cramps. It might be true but the first day I can barely move, so maybe going for a 20min walk might be a good idea so as to not "waste" the day.

I've been told this too! And that I'm "tight, you don't jiggle like other fat people".....yeah....that was the most weird thing!

Not necessarily. I did P90X and now I'm doing 30DS, and for the amount of time that JM makes you work I feel like I did when I was doing P90X. It really comes down to what you want out of the work out. She recommends 3-8lb hand weights, after doing P90X this is way to light for me, so I use 20-25lbs weights. I also follow…

^^THIS! I had this same hesitation to go out running, so I hit the track about and hr before closing since it wasn't as light outside. I avoided eye contact and ran/jogged on the outs of the track to avoid people. About a month into my running, a guy stopped me to tell me that he admires me for coming here everyday to run.…

They are both very good. If you are tight on time, do 30 Day Shred. The Tae Bo dvds I have tend to run 45min up to and 60min.

This is why I don't bother with a gym. Pop my dvd or find something on youtube and you will be fine. Weight loss is 80% what you eat, and only 20% exercise.

Bit of both! While some cardio workouts will give you more calorie burn in a given hour, when compared to strength training for the same time, the more muscle you build, the more calories you burn on a daily basis (even if you just veg all day!).

Is there such a thing as an obese trainer?! How can this person train you to loose weight or w.e. when they, themselves are obese?

I will recommend you Miracle 10 Leave In conditioner and Coconut oil (organic, cold pressed).

I am actually using the generic version, Jolessa, for the same reason. I have not had any weight gain from it or any other side effects associated with birth control pill. I think you should be ok. Now when its TOM, it's like I don't even notice that I have it!

Brazil Butt Lift is your best bet...the guy does train Victoria Secret models. I find this method effective as he truly does hit every muscle in your bum you didn't know you had. This is also a very comprehensive program -you got cardio, abs, strength training and of course lower body workouts.
