True! How did you KNOW?! The next person thinks TLC should change their name....no "learning" goes on there anymore!

True! But I can't have it on a Paleo diet. :( The next person is excited for the olympics! :)

Thank you! You're a 9.5, girl! Very pretty!!! :)

@lynetted43 9.8 I want 1/3 of your muscle tone! Awesome!

Zumba is a great way to be active. If you can't get to a gym to do it, there are DVDs! Good luck!

I use MFP to log my calories and keep track of when I've been exercising so i know if im meeting personal fitness goals. (I also rarely "eat back" any calories burned) You can add calories burned manually if you have a HRM but the exercises in the data base give WAY too much credit. I had someone post that they cleaned for…

Do the date night. Plan ahead by choosing what you will eat (log it to MFP before you go) and then stick to it there. And yeah..."exercise" later. Then maybe tomorrow squeeze in an evening walk with the kiddies and your DH?

I'm 22 and have a child, so my situation is a bit different but I am also in college so I understand the crazy schedule and circumstances it presents! Feel free to add me. Im always looking to add to my arsenal of healthy recipes (trust me, they are cheap and easy!) and I would love to share.

I love Zumba! You will have a blast. There are no wrong moves as long as you're moving, that's all that matters! Don't be afraid of looking silly. Just have fun and move to the groove. Your wife is very lucky you're going with her! When you guys are done, you will be drenched in sweat but smiling ear to ear (and probably…

Here's the thing, no matter how much people love you some just can't accept the success of others. Whether it be weight loss, a promotion, etc they always find a way to make it seem like no big deal. You have to learn to take them with a grain of salt and know that it's just their personality. So when should you be proud?…

I won't sugar coat it; starting SUCKS! But stick with it. Your cravings will subside, your energy will increase, and your self confidence will go through the roof. Your overall well being will get better. After a few weeks you will notice a difference but you wont get there unles you begin somewhere. So start NOW and that…

I've always been overweight as well. Nutrition didn't matter much in my house when I was growing up; we ate whatever was there and easy. If we had veggies, it was corn or green beans! (which don't really count since one is a grain and one is a legume...) So now, at almost 23, I am taking my life in my own hands. I want to…

YES! I love having a protein shake. Protein is essential in weight loss so you don't lose muscle. If you want a meal replacement, put some ground oatmeal in there for some carb. I like Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Gold Standard Natural Whey in Natural Chocolate.…

Even if there isn't a Zombie Apocalypse...at least I'll be hot and in shape!! So, all-in-all, it's a win-win!!!

I prepare steel cut oatmeal in a double batch every other day and refrigerate. That way all I have to do is throw it in the microwave in the morning, not wait 30 minutes for it to cook. The last 30 seconds or so of reheating, I throw in a handful of blueberries. Adds a lot of delicious sweetness with no added sugar and…
