  • I had a breast reduction 1 1/2 years ago and it was THE BEST thing I DID!!! It took me 3 years to finally get the nerve to do it. I was a 38 HH and I am now a 34/36 DD..I am short so I look more pro-portioned now. I am 5'1 and 136 lbs...Let me know if you have any specific questions!!! Tami

  • YOU CAN DO IT!!! Start over--No one says you can't start again. It's ok to start on a Wednesday and not a Monday!!! Record everything you eat and get back on track. It might be slow but know you can do it..I am doing it too after a long weekend away.... YOU CAN DO IT!!!! Tami
  • Hi there--I did the 30 day Shred and really liked it...I am the same as others on here..If I don;t like it (and I don't like exercise to begin with) I won't do it!!! But I liked the 30 day shred. I also just ordered Jillian Michaels No More Trouble Zones. It's a longer work out but I just plan on hitting the trouble spots…
  • Hi there!! I will also be 40 in September and this sight has been wonderful. There are a lot of supportive people and some great recipes!!! I, also, started the 30 day shred in June but hurt my shoulder so I have had to take a break. I loved it though and hope to get back to it soon (and I don't love exercise!!). GOOD LUCK…

  • After you copy it (the website for the ticker), where do you paste it for it to post?
  • Yeah it's working!!! I haven't figured it out yet-how to post it that is!! Congrats on the baby too!!! :)
  • I also found out that I burn twice as many calories in the AM than I do in the PM...Wierd but I thank my HRM for that!!! And my treadmill was also wrong in what I was burning...Is there a certain HR when you start to burn fat? I had no idea until I just saw someone post something above...
  • I have the Polar F6 as well and LOVE IT!!! I use it for making sure I burn the amount of calories that I want to. The HRM is much more accurate then my treadmill so if I want to burn 300 calories....I check my HRM and if it says 240, I know I have 60 more to go!!!! It was the BEST investment...I got mine off Amazon-as per…
  • It's terrific--although I haven't gotten through all 3 level b/c I pulled some muscles in my shoulder--I hope to start again soon....I got mine at Target for $9...It will make you SWEAT!!!

  • I did the same thing as OOtrayn!!!! Having the HRM was GREAT!!!
  • Don't kick yourself AT ALL!!!! As I have been told on here and by friends----You have to allow yourself some TREAT otherwise you will just go on an all out binge.... :)--
  • Excellent question!!! I could use help with that as well!!!
  • HI!!! I got the Polar F6 about a month ago and love it!!! You can turn off the beeping and you can see the calories burned during exercise. Sometimes when I am on the treadmill, I like to see if my HRM says the same amount of calories burned as the treadmill...I trust the HRM. I would highly recommend it and I asked the…
  • Tam-x-ico (i know weird) but they make a lo-carb wheat tortilla called WRAP-IT that is 90 calories and really good!!! I have had a lot of success with Cooking Light recipes and recipes from Rocco Dispirito---from his book NOW EAT THIS!!! Tami
