Unfortunately I don't have a cool story for mine. Mine are just from growing or losing/gaining weight- and the weight I gained or lost was nothing significant. I didn't create life or anything special =:\ If I did, I wouldn't care so much because I'd have a good reason!

Hahahaha! And the "Most Awesome Post" Award goes tooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! :) :) ;)

Thank you for this info. Nothing I've read described how they are formed and how to tell. I have mostly vertical so I guess they are from weight gain/growing :) I noticed one loooong (at least I think it's loooooog, haha) horizontal one on my upper left butt cheek. That was an interesting find that I never noticed before!

Palmers is usually used for prevention. Mederma is good for scars, but there aren't many people it's worked for when using them on mature stretch marks (white/silver). If you already have them and they are mature, I suggest looking into essential oils such as Rosehip, Tamanu, Emu and Vitamin E. Also microdermabrasion and…

Peter pan 1/3 less sugar has 2g of sugar. Is that good or bad? I also have ordered PB2 to put into my shakes but I didn't really look at the sugar content in that. Hopefully it's not too bad. And oops.. I got the honey roasted nuts because the calories were slightly less (somehow?) and the sodium was only 5mg higher than…

Some fit a littl differently but for the most part they feel the same. I think my booty is lifting from the program I am on so that won't necessarily make my jeans any looser, but fit in a better manner if you know what I mean.

I have some ankle weights I just got for my Butt Bible workouts. I will work in more weights somehow since many are suggesting that. I just ate peanut butter to get some more fat/cals in. I've been wanting to work in some PB- it's so good! I had just decided to get some peanuts. I was going to get honey roasted since those…

Thanks! I have yoga DVDs that I stopped when I started the Butt Bible. I have thought about getting a kettlebell but I don't know how to use them. :) I suppose I could get one that has a DVD with it. Maybe I need to throw that yoga back in there, too. :)

I do need to work in more water. Lately I've had a but less than usual :) We weigh and measure our meats, and freeze them in these portion sizes. Otherwise, I may eat 2 servings of something but it's within my calories. Does that make a difference- eating a couple servings of something even if I stay within my calories??…

It looks like I messed up my diary. I had sections for Afternoon Snack and Evening Snack and decided to just put one category for "Snacks" so I guess it deleted the items I had in those other sections previously. I didn't even think about that. So, it looks like I ate less calories than I did on most days. :/

bump. I want to read these posts later, but there's a lot and I don't have much time!

That's what I was thinking! Eat MORE! I am having an issue with not losing lbs and everyone's telling me to eat more.. and I am eating right around 1200 calories a day. You're basically eating nothing. Highly dangerous. And please take a good multivitamin! :)

1600 calories sounds like an awful lot. And thanks for the suggestion on strength training. There is some in the Butt Bible, but I am only on level 1. Once I get up to Level 2 and 3, this will increase. I can add more but I don't have, nor do I want, a gym membership. I have resistance bands- maybe I could join hubby in…

I also sit at a desk for 8 hours. My weight is at my hips and bum- hence why I am doing the "Butt Bible" to tone that area (hopefully), and the cardio for general fitness and fat loss. I would take the suggestions I've received here, too. Maybe eat a little more? Look into the foods you are eating, too. Make sure your…

My MFP goal is only 1200. It's more when I exercise of course because it adds calories from exercise... but in general it's 1200. :) I will try to eat more. Sounds difficult though because I feel like I am eating a lot most days. Maybe a little more calories for breakfast will help since that's usually when I eat the least.

I don't think I eat much sugar/sweeteners. I don't even add sugar or sweeteners to my coffee. I added Splenda today because I tried something new with my coffee, and it didn't work out well and I needed to add something in order to suck it down. LOL :)

buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuump!

Wow.. well guess what- you are EARNING your body. It will be so much better for you than just popping a pill. Sorry to be so blunt.... but also put it this way: She is taking little pills to make her lose weight. You are working out. She is going to have a bunch more body fat than you are because you working out= muscle.…

We make fresh popcorn in our Whirley Pop frequently. We use 1.5 tbsp of Orville Redenbacher Buttery Flavored Popcorn Oil. Then we each season our portions how we want. We use shake on white cheddar, or butter flavor, or kettle corn flavor. I also add some salt. It's the oil that kills it calorie wise.. but other than that…

Great idea! I am trying to reduce the calorie intake for my coffee creamer. It's 30 cals for vanilla sugar free. I could have far less calories with a dash of vanilla almond milk in my coffee :) :)

Thank you! I will definitely try it first. I'll have to check if Sam's sells it. We do not have a Costco here :) I think certain cartons of Silk do not need to be refrigerated until opened. At least that's what I think I've gathered? I could be wrong. I think I figured out that "Aseptic" meant the carton was specifically…

Pushes the post to the top :) and for me, keeps it in my "My Topics" for going back to.

bump! yum!

I doubt it's too late! Just stick to it, and don't give up. It will take time. You. Can. Do. IIIIIIIIIIT! :) :)

The best thing for cellulite is simply- fitness. Cardio to reduce fat and training to tone and shape muscles. There are creams and such out there but I don't think they do much. I have lots of cellulite on my legs and bum and I can already tell it is SLIGHTLY reduced from working out the short period that I have been…

Bio oil came up in my research and it seems okay, but I decided to go in a more complicated route. haha :) My rosehip oil came in, I have yet to order Tamanu.I just ordered my MSM supplement, Moisturizer cream with MSM, Vitamin E oil, Vitamin C 1000mg with rosehip, and I have my sugar scrub. I suggest everyone that is…

bump! I LOVE the yogurt idea!

I have one cup a day. The coffee isn't bad, it's the creamer I put into it. I love french vanilla cream and the fat free kind is 20-25 cals per tbsp. Sugar free is 15 cals so I've recently switched to that. I generally have 2 tbsp per cup (so, 2 tbsp per day). I just bought some Designer Women's Aria Protein Powder and was…

I just looked into Designer Whey Aria Women's Protein. 80 kcals per serving. 2g fiber, 14g protein, 1g sugar. Looks pretty decent. I love to have a good shake once in a while but all of the ones I've come across are 130+ kcals, then I add milk, and it's just too much for my calorie goal. This Aria may be the ticket for me!…

Admittedly, I have no idea what we spend on food each month because I don't keep track. I know we spend more now because we buy a lot of fresh fruits/berries and meats. But- My Gosh that sounds like a lot and I KNOW I don't spend that much for my hubby and I. I am going to estimate that for food only- we probably spend 1/3…
