  • I have a Mica Beauty one and it's amazing! Way worth the price!
  • I'm addicted to that website. I've been using it for a couple of months now and I have had some really delicious low cal meals off there.
  • I tried them all, lavalife, eharmony, plenty of fish. I don't know how I got so lucky, but I met my current bf on POF. I definitely had to go on some really bad dates, but it was worth it to find him. It just take a bit of perseverance. He had just as much trouble meeting people as I did. And he's amazing. So there are…
  • I was in Proactiv and then I switched to AcneFree cause I can buy it at Walmart when I need it instead of an auto-order like Proactiv. It works well.
  • You have to make your walks more challenging. Try some trails and hills. But adding in some strength training will definitely help. Muscle burns more calories so if you have more muscle, your cadio will be more effective.
  • I work 12 hour shifts also. 4 on, 4 off starting at either 7am or 7pm. I don't get up early either and at the end of the day, I'm too tired. I workout on my lunch break for about 45 minutes. I'll even go at the middle of the night but I have a gym in the building I work in. I like it because no one else is in there so I…
  • I'm not a coffee drinker and I try to stick with no calorie teas like green or jasmine teas. And when I want a change from just water, I use crystal light with about half water half perrier water or something low in calories to add some fizz. It's amazing how much drinks add to your calories. But water does get a bit…
  • Mix up your workouts. Do something fun outdoors while the weather is nice. I found this website that offers a lot of flavourful dishes for low calorie meals that are filling. Its skinnytaste.com. I've tried a few recipes off there and they've been great. One favorite is the asian glazed drumsticks. So good. Served with…
  • Maybe because you're eating too little. Your body starts to go into starvation mode. Your body needs to be refueled to operate properly. You can't build muscle if there's nothing to build from. You need protein to build muscle and carbs to fuel the muscle. And your body may have plateaued if you're doing the same…

  • In the summer, it's ice cream! I can give up just about anything else other than ice cream!

  • I work nights too. I'm just getting off this morning. But I just keep eating when I'm hungry and eating my normal meals. And I bring healthier snacks with me. I work out in the middle of the night and then eat something bigger after cause I don't eat much before I go to bed. On my first night shift, I get up in the…
  • Me too! I went camping this weekend and ate too many treats. I need to cut back big time again!
  • I don't think it looks orange. It looks pretty good. I spend a lot of time outside but I burn so I don't get as dark as I like to get. I wear sunscreen when I know I'm going to be outside for a while. And it takes too long to lay outside to get that dark. I waited 7 hours before showering and some of the initial bronzer…
  • Giving up drinking is hard for me too. Depending what you like to drink, it can be loaded with calories! My boyfriend and I love to have wine with dinner and for a while there, it was getting to be almost every other night. We've cut back some. And we both like having a cold beer when it's hot outside and we go fishing and…
  • I just took the tags off of them this morning. So I haven't washed and shrank them. I'm a week past my TOM so maybe a lost a bit during. And yes I've just started exercising regularly again. Thanks!
  • Love my elliptical! It folds up so it takes up less space in my small apartment. Yes it burns a lot of calories and it is a good cardio and that is what helps burn the fat off. I like that it is low impact so it doesn't bother my knees and ankles. I also go reverse and it works a totally different set of muscles. And I…
  • I did do that but I'm having a hard time finding out how many calories it burns.
  • If you're hungry, eat the exercise calories. If you're not, then don't. Do what your body tells you to. I agree though that you have to think of it as refueling your body. Giving your muscles back what they need.
