I give wonderful back massages too ;)

Gladly ;)

Just as an update, she is a registered outpatient dietitian.

Not everyone's rear will look that nice. Part of that is genetics. Now I'm not satying you can't get a better, firmer, more lifted butt, but a little of this is false advertising. Should be a warning label: Actual results may vary. (Especially when using a Smith machine). Though a smith machine is better than no squats at…

I gave it up because of extreme fatigue and headaches. Since eating gluten free, I have have had no headaches, and have more energy. I don't believe in the fad, and I will eat wheat and/or gluten if I want, but there is a definite link between how I feel and not eating gluten. In general, I have found that I feel better…

Sorcha1977....just read recently that the average HRM is off by 28%. I too adjust down for the overestimate in my HRM.

Vegetables and water....the all natural ones.

No bake cookies.....just add a little extra water...I throw in 2 scoops of whey protein too....yum!

MFP sets a proper deficit....that 1200 is NET calories.....hence, If I exercise and burn 500 calories, I am supposed to eat them back. TDEE-20% and the algorithm MFP uses are a little different, but the essentially get at the same thing. TDEE accounts for daily activity, MFP relies on strictly net calories. For instance,…

Sounds like hormone changes. Have you tried eliminating some common foods that many people have sensitivities to-i.e. wheat or dairy?

I'm on a lower carb, high protein diet and have cut out all gluten. The less sugar I eat, I generally notice that within a week or two, my cravings substantially decline. I have found by eating fruit I can almost always curb the sugar craving. If I'm really desperate, I eat raisins. I also add 1 tbsp. of non sweetened…

ice cream. Ugh.

Mine is open open open :) Friend me :)

This is so interesting. It also shows the poverty level of countries v. the US. Look at Chad compared to the US....we are truly gluttons :(

APBTs used to be called Nanny dogs for a reason....protective and loyal....great family dogs. There are no inherently bad dogs-animal behavior is both instinctual and learned. When a dog is reinforced negatively, it reacts negatively. Love pits and staffies....:) And like all dogs, they benefit form training, routine, and…

I was having the same problem. Had my throid checked because I was finding it impossible to lose weight and ahving other classic symptoms of hypothyroid. My TSH came back at 2.76...normal according to the range. I insisted I be put on low dose syntroid because many endocrinology articles I found stated that women should…

not generally...but there are always exceptions. One or both generally has secret feelings or at the very least some sort of attraction-animal magnetism...generally physical, but it can be emotional. Unless the guy or girl is gay. That's about the only time firends of opposite genders are "just firends." Granted, you can…

I throw a tbsp in my smoothies and use it on my skin.

MMMMM chinese... BOOOO to sodium and MSG. Drink some water and eat an apple an go flush that crap out with a nice workout :)

Maybe they came up with they name bc you expel some gas after all that gyration....fartees sounded less attractive haha.

Was a fan of everything in moderation. After giving up diet pop and wheat, I've seen greater progress. For me, abstaining from these 2 things is the way to go....so I say BOTH!

27...Add me! I'm getting old :(

Inches lost is so much better than pounds lost....I'm right where you are too....just keep at it....eventually the scale catches up. Just make sure you are at a deficit, but also eating enough. Drink lots of water, keep your sodium low, weigh and measure your food and after a time the scale will move. Keep up the great…

It's called envy....they have it. Don't let them get you down. You are perfectly within your rights to eat what you like and log your food....congrats on your willpower and success. Don't let anyone make you feel bad for it. But if you haven't spoken up to your friends I would say something along the lines of the…

body Fortress Vanilla Creme Whey Protein-1 scoop 1 cup skim milk 3 oz. Raspberries 1 tbsp. powdered cocoa mmmmmmm :)

You look incredible! GREAT work!

Depending on the flea medication, she could be having an alleric reation to the meds. Please be very careful about pet store products-many flea collars and hearbal meds contain pyrethrin-which is toxic to cats (causes neurological issues and in some cases death). Please PLEASE take your cat to the vet. This can be a…

Meals high in protein and fiber Half your weight in water daily.

Start lifting....your breasts won't get any bigger, but you'll build the muscle tissue up underneath....making the ladies look perkier.....and perkiness beats big, droopy, saggy ones any day of the week!
