HOW DO I TKE OFF THIS POST??? IT WAS A MISTAKE, AND THIS SITE DOESN'T LET YOU KNOW HOW TO DO IT!

I didn't have my first real boyfriend or kiss till I was like 19. And I felt wierd, because all my friends had gotten way past me. I also saved my viriginity till 22, and that's rare as well. Nothing wrong, in fact, before I had my boyfriend I was able to get my degree, and accomplish a lot of things in my life. He will…

First of all, I want to point out that this a free website, and we are free to post anything we want, as long as it's not x-rated or wahtever. I have posted other topics and I got really good feedback from it. So I feel that there are some really mature and wise people on this site, probably because we are all putting…

Great idea! I will add some spurts of cardio in between. I usually add 30min cardio when I lift weight, anyway, and 45-60min cardio when I have an off day for weights. I know Jillian Michaels designs her workouts like that. thanks.

Wow guys! These are some good ideas. A lot of them I knew already, but you reminded me again. I know that a lot of the bulk is really just fat over muscle, but what I meant to say is that I am not a lean person, I have a stocky build, just runs in my family.

Good idea! Thing is I don't have medical insurance right now, but I will. Good idea, a lower anti-depressant, one that doesn't conflict with my other meds! Thanks.

I'm the same way. I don't have an i phone but i have a samsung galaxy, and I can't workout unless I am listening to music. I run with it, use it on my elitpical etc.

I want to try it. They always have a special place in the gym dedicated to it. however, I am broke, and I think it's pretty pricey.

You sound exactly like me!! I am an emotional eater too, and I have been off and on this site so many times you would think it's a bad relationship. But now I love it! So many people who care and are in the same struggle. Lately the past 2 weeks I have beeen folowing my diet and exercise, but at night it's like fighting an…

mmmmm did my stomach just growl???

This sounds good. And probably gives you a lot of energy! Can't wait to try it, I have all the ingerediets, except salsa.

mmm thanks guys! I bring salads a lot. I will also snack on nuts, satsuma oranges, apples, peppers and carrots with light ranch dressing. A lot of times I will bring healthy leftovers from the night before too.

Holy cow! amazing! you are an inspriation to me. Only thing is: did you lose the booty? Thing is, I really don't have one already, and people tell me when you lose weight you lose curves too. of course these darn boobs, they never shrink!!

earlier i was listening to the new Christina album, "Lotus." Not bad, much better than her last one. But still doesn't compare to "Stripped."

Also, another thing, sorry so many comments. It dint' cause me to gain weight or bloat like the pill and patch did. And...it's like 99% effective against getting pregnant. Which I was always afraid of happening. Even more than say, the pill which you can forget to take, or the patch which always falls off. And the nuva…

I just want to let you know something: the Merina IUD has literally CHANGED MY LIFE. I use to be an extremely heavy bleeder, and it kinda interfered with my daily acitivies. I would spot for like a week, then bleed heavy for a week, I was so depressed. I tried the patch and the pill, both bloated me, and messed with my…

I am an emotional eater too. Especially when I am under stress. But I notice exercise helps keep your mind off of food. And also hobbies. I like to sing or write. When I write and record songs, one of the only times I forget about eating. What tthings do you enjoy doing? Also, keeping little snacks around; crunchy things…

I have the same issue! my calves are so big and muscular, that I never fit into any knee high boots, I have to get the ones you pull on, not zip up. I stay away from any calf building strength exercises. But..I noticed that when I lose weight they shrink. When the trainer told me that there is fat over the muscle, I was…

I agree with you. I'm about 180 at 5'3'' which I know is big But I also have big bones and muscle mass, which accounts for more weight. When I am 135-140 I look awesome. Which, by the books, is still big for my height, but my frame is not small, so they never take that into account.

Carbs, I hate to say. I also like those stouffer's mac and cheese meals. but i have to cut those out.

SO RIGHT!!!! my friend was like 350 and lost 100lbs in a small amount of time (60 just by dieting a lone the first 3 months). Then when he started the Insanity workouts he lost the other 40

Thanks for the compliments. I know I am overweight, (according to BMI calucaulator) but I think I put it on the places the women wish they could (ie chest area lol) but I realize opinions are just that...opinions. He says that in men's standards I'm "fat" but is he talking about the men he knows, or all men? He's a jerk, I…

Wow Pomegrante, that was an amazing post! thank you for taking the time out to write these encouraging and honest words!!! And to everyone else as well.

THANK YOU!!!! i am going to start this pronto. I needed a solid strength training plan.

You all the hit the nail on the head. I am the heaviest I have been in my life, and I don't feel good about myself. I feel very confident in my singing ability and writing skills, so it wouldn't hurt if someone berated me on that. But he is also a little overweight, and is single, and he says he's working on it. Also, I…

Thanks ladies. I'ts so nice to hear these replies from such beautiful ladies too. Yeah, It hurt me for a moment, but sometimes critcism just makes me try harder. Even the guy I've dated for a year and a half says I look fine, I'm big boned but not fat. But still.......I know eating right and healthy will help.

wow! what a lot of responses! thanks. yeah, we were friends for years before we dated. I knew the situation he was in, and that's why I kept my distance. I kind of want to move on, but he still loves me. None of my family likes him, and my mom is totally against us dating or marrying, so it makes it hard. But I depend on…

i woke up mad, mondays are mad days for me. Just having to work today, and also when your best friend writes about how much she's in love on her facebook, and so does her friedn (who she set up with her bf friend), and you have to realize how much you hate being single...

You're so right! I definitely am picky, I don't settle at all. Thing is, i'm too picky of looks. I know a few of my pretty friends who married unattractive men and are very happy. I guess i'm too superficial. Yes, my mom is super unhappy in her marriage, but relies on his medical insurance because she has lots of health…

Wow!!! Im about ready to pick up on the 30 day interval training by Jillian. I like her because she incorporates a lot of fun exercises to really burn fat. For example, utilizing the lower body a lot. Of course, you had a good diet this whole year, right? I can see!!
