The only thing I have a problem with is foods w/dye in them. My son is super sensitive to dyes in foods. They make him bounce of the walls totally uncontrollable HYPER!!! You give him dye, he goes home with you!!! It takes about 3 days for it to get out of his system. No dye its ok to give him sweets, but in moderation…

wow that almost sounds just like my ex-husband!!!!!!!!! Except we never had kids together, thank god!!!!!!! My 2nd hubby is my prince charming.

That's one of the reasons my 1st marriage ended. He kept cheating even though he was caught. I told him to choose his girlfriend or wife, he said wife but kept seeing the gf. Peace out!!!!!!!! I'll make the choice for ya, bye bye. The verbal and emotional abuse was heard enough then you add the cheating. Now i have the…

I work full time as well and have 2 young boys. I go to the gym at work and do my cardio for about 45 min then after the kids are in bed I do my weights. That's the only way I have time to do it. So I'm working out around 8/830pm. I hate that my workout is split up like that but with my schedule its the only way to work it…

Thanks for writing this. My dad is overweight and he refuses to have pics taken and lots of times refuses to go to family functions "Cause I dont want anyone to see me this way" he says all the time. We try telling him relatives want to see him, they love him. I copied & pasted what you said and inserted it into an email…

yup, boys love it!!!!!!!! occassionaly momma forgets to move the Elf when the kiddies are asleep, oops!! That's when I tell them "I guess the Elf was trying to trick you and stayed in the same spot" Lol!!!

I did it and was over 900 cals a day. Each shake was 220-300 cals. I did it for breakfast & lunch. I had 2-3 healthy snacks a day and a sensible dinner. It worked great for me. I only had 10lbs to loose and did it in 4wks. My average cals for the day were 1300-1500 depending on my snacks and dinner. I workout alot so I def…

^^ this!!!!! :)

too much pizza, ice cream, candy, pasta & rice...... need more veggies & fruit

I love love zumba!!! I go twice a week too, Tues & Thurs. I burn so many calories its crazy!

popcorn!!!!!!! Girl Scout cookies- Thin Mints!! Good thing thats only avail once a year!! lol.

I did good, Only had one tootsie lollipop. Yes I logged it ... was still under calories for the day :) The leftover candy was brought to work as was some of my kids candy. They dont need quite that much and I'm sure wont even notice its missing.

I've done Wii version and actual classes. I prefer the classes, easier to follow along and a whole lot funner. I tend to burn more calories in an actual class too. I go Tuesdays & Thursdays.

I've done JM's 30 Day Shred and JM Ripped in 30.... both are great!!! I have not done Insanity, so I cant compare them to that. Both JM's dvd's helped me alot!!! I have also done Jilian's Body Revolution, that is a awesome 12wk program!!! I am currently doing Zumba & ChaLean Extreme, almost done w/week 8 out of 12. I am…

<---- doesnt know how to post a pic. lol.

yes!!!!!!!!! You must be honest w/yourself though. Count cals correctly.-- measure & weigh your food. Heart rate monitor helps if you plan on exercising.

I've done white cake mix and sprite. Very yummy!!!!

I'm hypo as well for about 9yrs. I've been taking Synthroid for those 9yrs. The dosage has gone up a few times over the years (esp when I was preggo). I have never experienced any side effects with it. It took alot of hard work to loose the baby weight after I had kids ( 2 boys, 3yrs apart) but I did it. Lost 46lbs first…

I have the same problem!!!! Glad I'm not alone!!

I hear ya.... my headache is going on 7 weeks now :( Drs are trying to figure it out.....

Most of Jillian Michaels dvd's are 20-30 min. I am currently using ChaLean Extreme (I have 2 kids - 4 & 7). The workouts range from 25min to 46 min. I squeeze the workouts in soon as they go to bed at 8. I'm done 830/845, get a shower then either read or watch a lil tv before bed at 10. Up at 515 for work. A friend of mine…

Have you tried their under 500 cal menu? Those items are tasty and filling. I get the steak & shrimp w/steamed veggies & taters. The amount is small compared to one of their regular menu items. But you dont need more.

The new crispy chicken cobb salad at ChickFilA is 430 calories w/o dressing, the avocado lime ranch dressing they suggest to go with it is 310.. that's 740 cals for a salad!!!! Yikes!! Thankfully they will let you swap out the crispy chicken for grilled, then get the light italian dressing (25 cals), then your salad is…

BUMP

Get a heart rate monitor. I use one and its amazing how different the calories burned are on my monitor vs the treadmill & ellipitical. For me the elipitical is harder....i prefer the treadmill. But I do both anyways. I add in the stationary bike sometimes too.

I love The Loft and Ann Taylor, and New York and Co. For The Loft and AT I pretty much only shop at the outlets and can get some amazing deals!!!!

I am on week 11 of Jillian Michael's Body Revolution. The workouts are 30 min long. I dont have alot of time either, they fit into my schedule perfectly. I have done Chalean Extreme in the past at that was great too. The workouts range from 26 min to 45min. That's very doable too. I started w/30 day Shred and it was a good…

When i stopped drinking Pepsi 7 weeks ago I weened myself off of them. I totally avoided the caffeine withdrawal headace. I was only drinking one a day anyway. I did those small cans - 7.5ozs for a week then had half of the small can and eventually none. The first couple weeks are sooo hard w/o any soda!! its all you think…

I am just realizing I have it, although it is mild. I've been noticing after working out (Jillian M Body Revolution) my belly seemed bigger. I'm like I'm doing planks, crunches etc why is it worse. Now I know why. Plus after eating my stomach pushes out. Do you have the binder? I was wondering if its worth the $50. I…
