Start with the feet. A nice 2 inch heel will do wonders for your height. A skirt that comes to the knees and is more of the "pencil" design. A loose "flowy" skirt will make the width width of your hips carry all the way down to your knees. Choose a blouse that comes down to the bottom hip upper thigh thigh will help to…

I have 4 kids and my youngest is only 5 months old. I nursed all of them. The rule of thumb is that your body burns 300 calories for every 45 (ish) minutes of nursing.

I have a freckle on my right arm that I…

I've got about 140 lbs to lose. I'm 32 and have had 4 GIGANTIC babies over 8 years (smallest of the 4 was still 8 lbs. 10 oz and 21.5 inches long)). I already know that I'm going to have lose skin. BUT I have been doing a LOT of research and have found that while age, genetics, time spent carrying extra weight, etc. all…

I know this is an older thread but I'm hoping someone can help me! I have figured out how to read the calories burned but now I can't figure out how to reset it back to zero. I've just been subtracting the calories it shows when I get started from when I get done with a work out but I'm sure there's a better way to do…
