I made this same leap!! I started here April of last year an 18/20 and I bought a skirt just because it was a size 6 and I thought it was a fluke... nope. I am a size 6 now too. Great work!! Wear it proud, you've earned it!

My 9 year old came home from school one day and asked if I could make him a chocolate sandwich like "so and so" had I said absolutely not. He asked why not and I said, "Because honey, I love you." waiting for the school to call me on that one as I am sure he repeated it. lol I hope they do call!!

Love Bacon too but after months of not having it, treated myself and it tasted sooo salty to me, I couldn't finish it. I've now tried several kinds and they all taste like I am chewing a cows salt lick. The only thing I am truly sorry my body adjusted to...

Winter car: 2005 Durango. Summer car: 1968 GTO 400/400 turbo transmission. You wanna talk about haulin a**... thats it. lol

What everyone said. I have the Sportline Duo 1010 and it does that when I don't wet down the entire chest monitor and the back of the watch. I was only applying water to the middle of the chest strap monitor and it didn't work, had to wet the whole thing and it works great. Good luck! Also remember to update your weight…

I was drinking the starbucks light frappachinos at 100 calories but I got a single serve keurig for Christmas and have switched to hot coffee. I use Splenda and a sugar free creamer. Right now I am hooked on Coffe-mate Sugar Free Vanilla Caramel creamer 1 tblsp has 15 calories and 1g of fat. There are a lot of fat free or…

Graduated in1992 (Yes, 20 year reunion this year) at between 135 and 140. I am at 145 right now! So excited!

Ohhh yes!! Primal Fear and Seven both, excellent. Unfortunately, I nailed the Sixth Sense from the moment he got shot (husband was so mad. lol). It was still a good movie though.

Sleeping with the Enemy... When Julia Roberts calls the cops and her husband is standing there with that smug look on his face and she says, "Come quickly, I've just killed an intruder." The look on his face is priceless. Also love Suicide Kings, Usual Suspects, Second Hand Lions (although no BA ending), No Way Out (Kevin…

I agree, I thought 30DS was easier than RI30. You should look at some of Bob Harper's workout videos. He is intense and you can use as much weight as you want. Most of his videos have a short and long version too.

In my case, it is definetly Hot Tamales. No fat treat but have you thought about rewarding yourself with a little "you time"? Hot bath, 30 minutes with a book?

I have been reading this every Christmas time for years and the second to the last paragraph still makes me laugh out loud. I know it is long but so worth it. Thanks for taking the time to read and comment! Thought it might be nice for a little funny since everything seems to be so serious today. Happy Holidays everyone!

Watch out for a lot of those MP3 players. I got one for my son last year and returned it. This particular brand required you to pay monthly to keep the songs. Once you downloaded them, they were NOT yours to keep.

I will eat less of everything else just to have a biscuit. Also, when I get a platter that has shrimp scampi, I use the left over sauce for my crab and not the side of butter that comes with it.

This is the running joke in our house now. I am freezing all the time!!! I hope I adjust soon. Great job on the loss!!

Wouldn't "Port O' Call" be a better stripper name? lol Sorry.

Honestly, I only caught the end of the program but when she said you could "spot reduce belly fat" I shut it off. Let us know how it works.

My 15 year old son started this journey with me back in April and I wanted to start an account for him but I didn't. I understand the medical side of this, as far as they require more calories and such but I haven't been able to find anything for him to use like this. I think it would be great for teens that want to get in…

I do this a lot. Especially for dinner. If I know what I am going to make, I enter it right away then I know if or how much of a snack I can have. Actually, a lot of great advice. Especially the forgive yourself comment. If you screw up, let it go. Don't tank everything because of a bad day. Implement a support system you…

This may sound odd but I use low or non fat cottage cheese as my side. A little garlic/onion powder and pepper makes it feel like more of a mashed potato type side for me.

I am still at the stage where adult benedryl will stop my reaction but I was warned that I will get to the point where that wont do anything any longer.

You need to get checked right away. It sounds like what happens to be when I eat shell fish. Allergys can be progressive, meaning right now it swells, further exposures could cause it to swell larger or cause your tongue to swell as well.

Grilled asparagus

I hear you, trust me I do. Bacon for example, a serving size is two pan fried slices. When I cook it in my Nu-Wave oven, it is baked and all the fat drips to the pan, it isn't stewing in it. I am not arguing with you regarding the fat content, I am just saying there is no way to calculate what the loss is. It's frustrating…

Yes it does. I am only half way through the book but it has a ton of information including meal plans and a lot of different workout moves. There is a group called NROL you should come join!

I just got this book two weeks ago so I am a newbie. I raised my calories based on the calculations in the book for lift and non lift days. So far, I haven't gone up. I am fighting a cold so I haven't lifted in a few days so I am taking in less calories. Whey protein is great and so are almonds to get your counts up…

You should get the book "New Rules of Lifting for Women" Just getting started myself but it is very informative.

I love this Mio! Make it as sweet as you want but start light and taste it first because if you over do it, toooo sweet!

I think the OPs question is regarding the fat content. The grill claims there is less fat in your food because of the way it is cooked. I have ran into the same problem with my Nu-Wave oven. You consume less of the fat but really, there is no way to tell.

My son likes the Bob Harper series. He does "Pure Strength" and "Intense Core" they are both 55-65 minutes each but they usually have a 10-20 shorter version on the disc too.
