I've gotten and made several recipes from hearthealthyonline.com. They are low calorie and full of vitamins and protein, and they're really yummy! I've made the chicken and garbanzo bean soup, the pulled bbq chicken sandwiches, the beef goulash, and the ranch fajita chicken wraps. Those are absolutely delicious, easy to…

I just turned 31 and I'm going to get mine done soon. Of course, I love piercings and have many of them already anyway. I say go for it! Oh, and both of my sisters have had belly rings for years and they have never gotten infected.

Me too!!

You look wonderful!! You sure you have another 30-40lbs to lose? ;)

Your body needs the fuel to run correctly! I always eat a little something between 2 and 3 hours before a workout. If you eat too much right before hand, your body will be concentrating on digestion and will not perform to the best of its ability. If I don't have time to wait 2 or 3 hours, I drink my Shakeology and a…

I did it for a week and quit. It does work your body but the circuits are too short (my opinion) and it was very boring. I didn't look forward to doing it and I can't stand workouts like that! It would probably get you a good base going for muscle if you don't have one yet. You may like it, so don't let me talk you out of…

Job well done girl! Keep it up, you're doing fantastic!!!

Heart rate monitors are very expensive but they are worth every penny! I bought the bodymedia fit and I love it! I've done Insanity and it was a very hard core muscle building workout, but honestly I didn't burn as many calories as I would've thought. I am 5'7ish, 150lbs. I burned a MAX of 400 during pure cardio and a MAX…

I do a Shakeolody protein shake after every workout everyday as a lunch replacement. If you don't do protein shakes or meal replacement bars, then I would go with a banana and a tbsp or two of peanut butter. Peter Pan brand has a whipped peanut butter that is way low in calories (for peanut butter) and delicious! I've…

I tried that almost a year ago and it worked but it was SO boring to me that I stopped after two weeks and started turbo jam instead. Hopefully you won't find it so boring! Good luck!

Hey there! Nice to meet you! I changed the daily calorie intake to 1500 instead of 1200. I was 215 when I started and 1200 was a bit low for me. You burn more naturally when you're bigger and you have to eat in order to lose weight, so 1200 isn't enough. The more weight I lost the lower my calorie goal got. Now I'm down to…

I had/have the same problem! I'm still breaking myself, but I've been "clean" for about 7 weeks! lol! I bet quitting late night eating, is like trying to quit smoking....maybe harder! These are some things that I've been doing. Maybe they will work for you! First and foremost, I make sure to eat a nice sized breakfast,…

Oh, also losing 1 to 2 lbs a week is very normal and very healthy. Anything over that is probably unhealthy loss and less likely to stay off in the long run!!

You are probably gaining muscle like crazy. Especially if you body was used to no exercise or strength training. You want to gain that muscle (even if it temporarily raises the scale reading). Muscle does not weigh more than fat! A pound of fat and a pound of muscle equal the same amount......one pound! Muscle is heavier…

Yes, I know all that. That is what I was trying to say, just didn't word it right......didn't go into reseting your goals. I did say that the less you eat the slower your metabolism gets though! "Certain people will go even higher than a 500 al deficit, opting for 750 calories or 1000 calories less than what they burn each…

I get a lot of extra calories from exercise, but don't use them either... To consume the extra calories you've earned is actually the way you maintain your current weight. Just keep your caloric intake down to 1200 and keep exercising and you WILL lose weight! Also, make sure you down that water....I'm addicted to diet…
