  • I'd LOVE to be a size 10 in jeans! I'll just be happy with a solid 12 though...that's what I wore throughout high school & I looked awesome. :) I think it's better for those of us "blessed" with wide hips to not focus so much on pant size as much as getting our weight in the healthy range.
  • I go with Dannon light & fit yogurt - 80 cals. It's sort of high in sugar though...
  • When I haven't lost any for a week or more, it seems like a cheat day does the trick. :) Just have to make sure you go right back on track eating your target amount of calories.

  • Walmart is a good place to start. :) Kmart/Target/Kohl's would have similar items, and usually have good sales. Also check out sales/clearance at sporting goods stores like D!cks's or Dunham's.

  • Habitat for Humanity is a good one -- you get to work on building houses. Many colleges actually have a HfH chapter, so if yours has one, they will be able to hook you up. You'll get outside, and get some exercise too. So, it's win-win! :)
  • That's great! You look awesome!
  • If you truly are deconditioned, you might want to ask your doctor about physical therapy. They can give you simple exercises that will help to build up your endurance. Another thing is to make sure you're getting plenty of water...I've had a similar problem in the past, and the headaches are usually caused by dehydration &…
  • I've only been on here about 3 weeks now, and I felt the same way. It is slowly getting easier to be motivated to exercise, mostly because I know I'll be able to eat more if I do! :) Also, doing the same exercises a few days a week will build up your endurance, so you can progressively do them longer.
