I hate to tell you, your belly is the last place you will see results if it is you primary problem area. I feel ya. My belly is a mess after having kids. My problem area use to be my thighs, now it's the baby gut!

Okay, this is pissing me off. No, I do not believe in diet pills alone, but they DO have their place with proper diet and exercise. I admire all of you out there who have bounds of energy and never get hungry. Bravo, you're better than me. I believe in supplements; some may give me a placebo effect, but hey it works. You…

Costco had it a few months ago. You can also find it online at: www.abbotstore.com.

About 300 to 400 for 3 meals then about 300 to 400 in 3 snacks.

It's really light weight like 1.5 to 5 lbs. It's more like cardio with weight. It's not weight training. You should be fine.

My daughter is almost 10 months. My son is two. It's not skin just a pooch. I can actually feel the muscles under the layer of fat, but it just feels pushed out.

Cereal bars and cookies. Ugh. I'm a carbaholic.

I hate when stores like Old Navy only sell plus clothing online. It's insulting! Most women are plus sized. We all have our curves in different places and buying online isn't the best option. Most department stores do the same thing. Why can't they sell them in the stores? Wait, probably because they don't make their store…

I try not to obsess over them. I was a different person then. Focus on being the best you can be. I've had two kids and I'm not 19 anymore. It took me a while to get here, but I have decided to be the best me at every stage in my life. Childbirth and age change you and there is nothing we can do about it, but embrace it.

Tell him what you want. Why did you hire him and what did you expect to get from hiring him? If you hired him to push you during a workout and teach you new exercises then that's what he needs to do. You hired a trainer, not a nutritionist. Return your protein bars and supplements or sell them on Ebay. Tell him what you…

Hit the local park and jog the trails or hike. Hit the local school and run the stairs at the track and sprint the straights and walk to curves. I did this all the time before I had a husband away with the Navy and two kids who needed to be watched. Now I need the gym daycare! I do love Jillian Michael's tapes but you do…

No, you can really tell in more than just your face. Keep up the good work!

If I need it, I have a little bit of something sweet everyday. If you plan ( planning is the key) you can still have a treat and not bing. Binging happens when you feel deprived. The great thing about MFP is you can still eat what you love as long as you think about portion size. Surround yourself with healthy food…

Jillian Michaels works em' big time in her tapes. I swear squats are the only way to go. It's the biggest muscles in your body so you will burn more calories, tone and boost your metabolism. You can do squats and lunges at home with some hand weights.

I like yoga classes. I like the vibe. Yoga at home is lame to me.

You could use a HRM and calculate it.

I knew a guy who lost 30lb in a month on it. He gained 60 back. Eh, stay away. I know it's tempting, but the diet is really restrictive and not at all conducive to real life.

Unless your like me and don't loose weight at all while breastfeeding. Great bonding though! MFP will be great for tracking your food. Don't worry about your cals too much, just track what you're eating to make sure it's healthy and not to salty or sugary. Salty food made me swell like no other. I worked out my entire…

I've been eating back my calories and my weight loss has stopped. It was going really well in the beginning and I was meeting my goals of 2 lbs a week. Now I haven't lost in two weeks. I have been really pushing myself. 60 min of intervals and sprints on the treadmill, weights and elliptical. Help please.

You are in better shape than you think you are. I am 255. I can run and walk for an hour and do 30DS. You have to listen to Jillian, we are all stronger than we think we are. When you commit your mind, your body will follow. Mind over Matter. Your brain is scared, but you body can handle it. Women are strong, we are built…

Drink green tea. The sipping gives you something to do. I did this a lot when I was a news producer. Green tea can also suppress your appetite and aide in weight loss.

When I was in high school and college I was in great shape. I loved to wear tight tanks because I was proud of my hard-work and strong shoulders. I don't mind the tight clothes now. I wish I could wear them without giving people nightmares, but I'll get there again. The only time tight clothes bother me is when they're…

I detest the middle-aged man who talks to everyone at the top of his lunges about politics. I go out of my way to avoid him on the treadmill because he will starting trying to debate abortion or healthcare reform. If you want to be watched, make sure you wear short shorts and your boobs are hanging out, then spend most of…

Have you tried Lane Bryant sports bras? They tend to cater to the larger breasted girls. My mom is big chested and loves their bras. I am medium chested but have a large rib cage. I've had good luck with Target.

Good job! I am looking forward to that day. I hate the word obese it sounds the BIG OLE BEAST to me, and I don't like thinking of myself like that. YUCK!

You can do 30 Day Shred. It's tough, but 20 mins goes by fast. Just make the goal to keep moving. On day two all the jumping around was killing me. I am at 256 and 5'10 so it was a lot of stress on my joints. If my joints began to hurt I would just jog in place or punch until I could jump again. Mind Over Matter! You will…

I love that feeling!

I feel you pain. I too have depression and that can make weight loss hard. But working out and proper diet really does help. First, make sure you don't have something hormonal going on. That can keep you from loosing weight and can also make you put it on. Another is doing cardio 5 days a week. Push yourself. It should be…
