Carpet Cleaning - Hire a pro, or rent?
Yesterday was one of the first nice days of spring for us! I decided to open all the windows and doors and let the house air out a bit after such a long winter.

Anyone Starting today?
Last year, I made it all the way to Week 5, Day 3. I tried it over, and over, and over again for weeks, and I never got past it. I want to give it another shot, and I was hoping to find a buddy to work through it with. Is anyone just starting today, or maybe yesterday?

Lowering Calories - HELP Please =)
Here's my story. When I first started losing weight, I did what every other new dieter does, and went on a 1200 calorie diet, and worked my *kitten* off.

Progress... With Pics!
Yesterday was a confusing day for me. I was disappointed with the results I got from weighing in/measuring. And it wasn't that it wasn't enough of a loss. It was the fact that I gained BF%, and lost lean body mass. Which is what started my crusade to find out what I had been doing wrong. If you read my post yesterday, then…
