Do not put duct tape on bare skin. You will rip the skin off of your blisters. By blister protectors by Band-Aid. Nice and cushiony and won't damage you

I wish that when you confirm the nutrition on a product it would store in a foods section or something. So even when you don't eat something everyday you have an easy way to quickly add it knowing it is correct

I say dont force it. If you get enough protein, fiber, and nutrients from what you are eating without feeling deprived, then stick with what you are doing and just know that if you have a little bit of a slip, you will be fine

No packaged food. Meat, berries, fruit, nuts, some veggies. Whatever you picture a caveman eating. I mean they didn't have farms or flour mills, so you get the drift.

Crumley, she never said a word about drinking

I understand how you are feeling. It is then so hard when you do need talk it out and are unable to. Sometimes we just need to vent and not have everyone try to fix everything for us. Let yourself feel what you are feeling. Sometimes we believe our problems sound insignifigant when we say them outloud. That compared to…

I totally didn't think I needed to work on my arms because I have been a massage therapist for 12 years. LEVEL 2 IS WHOOPING MY ARMS'S BUTT!!! Who would have thought? I started late and missed a few days so this is only my 2nd day on Level 2 and my abs are so happy they are finally getting used for something besides…

Okay girl, Whats your secret?

I have been on MFP and being serious about getting healthy for a few months now. I lost about 20 lbs just counting calories and eating a pretty much clean diet. I know myself and if I had started the diet and excercise I would have given up. I am starting to excersize now cuz my weight has seemed to stall. Good Luck to you

I just kinda glanced at your diary and I blame SALT!!! I love salty foods and chinese can be the worst (but oh so good) And remember that when you increase your workouts your muscles swell a little and retain more water. It is not noticeable on the outside for regular folks but is noticeable on the scale. Stick with what…

I missed Monday -oops- but am so pumped to start today. I am going to go to the movies and when I get home after watching Katniss woop some butt I will be totally amped up!!!

I don't know where you live but I bought mine for about $25. Then 2 weeks later (while it was still in its protective plastic) I saw it at Target in their fitness department on sale for $14. I was like " Son of a B@#&%..."

If only we could get some computer nerds to join the group! :laugh:

Cool. I will post monday or over weekend. Finally motivation to actually DO the dvd instead of just stareing at it feeling guilty

This exchange totally helped me. Answers in great unexpected places

I am so in!!!! I bought 30 Day Shred and then got a crazy sinus infection. Snce then.....Ugh... whatever... I've been way to chicken s**t to begin. Maybe with others I will stop being such a nerd and just give in and do it.

Me 5'6 right now I am at 140, I want to get to at least 130 but really want 125. Then go from there. I have a very small frame. Little kids can touch fingers around my wrist. My biggest was 170 (that I will admit to)

Okay, saying this might get me in trouble but, I don't care as long as you are honest. If you lost a lot of weight by liposuction, don't tell people it was JUST diet and working out. If you take supplements that help you out then so be it. As long as you are honest and don't try to force me to do it, then why should I…

for reps i say listen to your body squat, lunge, stepups whatever you do, work til fatigue, rest 2 minutes, repeat twice

step-ups. Stand behind a bench or chair. step on with right foot, step back down with right foot. repeat for 20 reps. Then repeat for left side. I do these on an 18 inch step. Will lift your butt like its wearing a bra :bigsmile:

:flowerforyou:

save for later

If you take medication for thyroid make sure you take it on completely empty stomach. I keep a pill box and bottle of water on my nightstand so I take it before I even put on my glasses or turn off alarm. :yawn: I didn't know this for the 1 1/2 years of being on my medication. As soon as my new doc told me I couldn't even…

Maybe you could look up the DVDs or VHS of "Sit and Be Fit" it was a program that was on in the USA that ran for years. It is made for people that need very light workouts. Like the elderly, rehabbing or people with muscle disabilities. The woman who hosted this excercise program was very gentle and upbeat. It could…

Hey if you ever make it to Houston...

Ugh. I just want some magic elixir!!!!! I would never want to get anyone else sick. Except maybe my husband. Who got me sick :blushing:

How much do you need to lose? The stress and all the running around the week of I lost like 8 pounds. I had to diaper pin my dress to my bustier. I bet as soon as you chill a bit and quit focusing on it so much you will start losing

thanks. Its been bugging me
