GREAT! thanks for the update!

Wonderful! Keep up the hard work! You will be around a long time for your family. =)

Someone tell me if it comes out nice and juicy? I'm deathly afraid of dry poultry breast. =P

Pizza can be lower in calories as long as you stick to these common sense rules: 1. Stick to thin crust cause that means less carbs. (Carbs are not evil, but they do have a lot of calories =P ) 2. Avoid piling on the cheese and the high fat meats like sausage, pepperoni... and other forms of pork. 3. Put on a lot of…

YOU LOOK GREEEEAAAAAT! Good job! what an inspiration!

I'm a little bit confused. I agree that resistance training is necessary. But are you saying that using my own body weight for strength training is not enough? ... I don't have time to be lifting weight at the gym... I do have 8 pound wight sat home. Is that not enough? Does picking up a 22lb toddler every day and walking…

Misubi or onigiri. A.K.A rice balls. Or sushi rolls. (High in carb though)

Oatmeal is a grain right? Think outside of the box. Treat the oatmeal like rice gruel. So anything that you would eat with rice... you can eat with your oatmeal. Example: A sunny side up egg. A Ham and Egg scramble. Some red meat sauce. Some grilled chicken. Some stir fry. Some saute onions/mushrooms. Some cheese and…

What is the calorie goal assigned to you? Mine is about 1500. I think that seems really low... It's hard for me to stay below it unless I'm purposely fasting 1 or 2 of the meals. Now... to avoid hunger... You will need to find ways to occupy your mind and time. I know it's hard to be a SAHM and avoid the snacking. I don't…

EVERYONE, don't worry about your mommy tummy! Even Julia Roberts has mommy tummy. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1181379/Welcome-Mummy-Tummy-Club-Julia-Roberts-Actress-bares-stretch-marks-heroine-real-women.html I stumbled across the above article when I was feeling awful about my stretched belly... And…

There are definitely some legal aspects that make marriage the best way to assure the protection of spouse and children in the case of death or etc. But marriage is not just a piece of paper or a legal construct. Marriage is a public sign of "till death do us part" commitment. It's more than a promise to each other. It's a…

I have a nuwave oven. I really like it. But... I have never been able to oven fry anything in it! Also... the rack is not stainless steel... It can rust. So it's a bit of a pain to keep clean. But I REALLY like using my nuwave oven to make chicken, pork chops, quiche, roasted vegetables and etc. It also works really well…

I have a ninja prep. I LOVE IT. LOVE IT LOVE IT LOVE!!!!! It really DOES blend up ice in jiffy. And when I use it to mince up ingredients for my fried rice, or quiche... it does it so well! It really does end up finely minced... not mushed into a sorry mess. I use it to make smoothies... and they come out so good!…

Well... I believe in the value of strength training. But I don't think you have to use dumbells and weights to have resistance training. You could just use your own body weight right? I agree with the others who are saying, take it easy and do what you can do. Don't exercise to the point of injury~!

=) Congrats on your self realization! good luck! Add me as a friend, and I promise to leave you encouragements everyday =D Hehe....

Here are my guesses: 1. Maybe you're not tracking your foods right? Maybe you need to get a kitchen scale to measure your food quantities? 2. Maybe it's that time of the month, and you are retaining water? 3. Maybe you're taking Ambient and are eating food in your sleep? 4. Maybe you're eating too much salt and are…

If you are at your ideal weight and are extremely unhappy with how your legs look... I guess you could consider saving up for liposuction to reshape your lower body =P That is pretty extreme though! I also have big chunky thighs and muscular calves. But I am also overweight at the moment. I'm hoping that everything will…

I do have a WII. I didn't know there was a dancing game =P I will look into it! Thanks!

I have a polar F4 HRM. I used to use it... but I stopped because the strap didn't fit comfortably under my bra. Also, sometimes it wouldn't read my heart rate. And replacing the batteries on that watch through a certified dealer costs quite a bundle! Right now I'm using My Garmin Forerunner to track how far I run... and…
