I completely cut out red meat nearly 10 years ago because i was getting bad stomach pains/cramps and IBS issues (that worsened after my gallbladder was removed). Once I cut out red meat, the cramps and pains went away completely and the IBS is just always going to be there thanks to the gallbladder removal. I substitute…

LOL he already has 3. I dont think a baby really makes him lose the desire to keep having sex.

I'm not really willing to risk becoming infertile. I want kids, a lot of them. She knows this and that's why she won't. Most doctors i know of wont give them if you havent had a kid anyway because the cervix hasnt been stretched enough to reduce possible complications during insertion. You need to remember (or realize), I…

I dont pay for the plan b. He does because He has a job. also condoms are a no go.

I WANT the IUD so bad!! but my doctor REFUSES to give me one because I havent had kids yet and it can rupture the uterus and render me infertile. It's like either way I go I cant win. He cant use condoms, we tried. He literally cant keep it up. He cant feel anything through them and I even made sure they were the "barely…

it's over the counter... you do know that right?

at the moment, im uninsured and cant afford birth control and even before then, my doctors wouldnt put me on it because im so sensitive to hormones that everything would kill my libido or make me gain weight and my doctors didnt want me gaining weight when im already over weight.

i dont think im eating fewer than 1200 usually im right around 1500

I'm working different muscle groups every day. Monday was abs and legs, chest and triceps, yesterday was back and biceps, today i did a little more back because im not feeling it anywhere and tonight I'm going to do plenty of abs... but this is just so weird for me... how long until it flushes that water weight out??? I…

I know quite a few men that even TEACH zumba. and a few men who take the class. and the few men that are dragged in by their women.

definitely. I've come down from 215 lbs to 155 lbs since december to april (I plateaued in april but i've been indulging a lot more recently)

every class we have at least 2 or 3 people sometimes as many as 6 people counting calories with HRM (with the chest straps) and they're all in that area (over 1200 usually) so i think it's safe to say that's about right because they all use different models and our class is pretty intense.

I was hooping just fine at 230 lbs and I'm only 5'3'' so as you can imagine, I was quite rotund when i did it. It just took a lot of practice to learn when to push the hoop which way with which hip... also, if you can't go counter clockwise, try clockwise, or vice versa. I have a hard time hooping to the left but i can…

just to point out, in 1 hour of zumba, my class usually burns between 1100-1400 cal. usually we average about 1200-1250 so if you're shaking it hard enough, your HRM can be right. It's all about how much you get that heart pumping. the temp of your room can have an effect too because your body is burning more calories to…

I only read the first post and gotta say... you're a freak of nature. I lost 95 lbs and went from a D to a B. But I guess I measured wrong, huh?

If motivation came solely from within, society wouldn't have need for support groups. I think it's completely asinine to say she has to want it herself before anything else works. Obviously she WANTS it, she's doing zumba and trying her best to make good choices. The problem is her time management. Support can make or…

That's amazing. I'm also 5'3'' and at my peak, I was 250 lbs x.x" just this summer I weighed 215 and now I'm at 183 Your success is crazy awesome motivation for me to keep moving~!!!!

My dad sees me losing weight and is afraid that I'm going to become anorexic (my uncle passed away this year from his battle with anorexia so my family is a little high strung and nervous when someone says they want to lose weight). My mom is supportive and glad I'm doing it. My boyfriend is my biggest support. Honestly,…

I can honestly say that I'm in the same situation with my current boyfriend... but it's positive for me. Your husband obviously LOVES you. Even though he is attracted to smaller girls, he overlooked your size to be with a wonderful lady with a personality. Yes, he wants you to lose the weight. I don know many guys that…

1. look at he percentage that each milk had of casein in it. 2. you neglected the fact that no species is supposed to drink milk past infancy.

you do realize that humans are the ONLY species to ingest the milk of another species and we are the ONLY species to drink milk past infancy.. It's not natural and it's not part of our natural diet. Cow's milk is for baby cows, not humans. The only milk we need is our mother's milk until we're out of infancy. like i said…

Lovely last line. I love that. New life resolution :3 Good luck. Remember, this month's diet is next month's body. its okay to splurge every once in a while. ^_^

because our bodies are very complex machines and they get accustomed to routine. Changing things up shocks the body and keeps it on its toes. It can't get bored if you're constantly changing things.

I should also mention you don't want to do two low-calorie days back to back. give yourself a day of normal eating in between to break the fatigue and to get more energy in your body. remember: calories are energy.

you can do this. doctors say it is healthy. our bodies do not work on a 24-hour schedule. As long as you consume a minimum of 8400 calories a week, you should be fine. I do this. (just started today) on my low calorie days, I'm actually on a liquid diet (consuming all my calories through liquids) and honestly I haven't…

caseine is a milk protein. for dairy-restrictive people, this is not a good option. (just mentioning this for anyone who is trying to cut dairy out of their diet)

you do realize that when your body is in starvation mode, it takes all the calories it doesn't use for daily functioning and stores them as FAT right?

Something you can do is just munch on "zero calorie" foods. I typically don't eat dinner until 8 pm anyway because that's when I'm getting home from the gym. I've curbed my night-time binges by eating my dinner later and finding hobbies to keep me busy. I constantly keep my mind entertained to avoid boredom eating (I have…

Nope. I was a medium C and when I dropped from 210 to 185, I shrunk. I'm still in a C cup, but it's smaller. The worst part is the extra skin. But now my boobs swell when I'm retaining water weight -_- think of it this way: boobs are mostly fat tissue. if you lose your breasts, it's just fat leaving the body. Something you…
