My Belly Is Getting Weird And I'm A Lil Scared
My belly has been getting a weird shape to it. Has anybody experienced this? Above my navel it is hard as a rock and is getting BIGGER as I lose weight. It actually almost comes to a point when you look at it from the side. Then below the navel, it digs back in and becomes really soft and flabby. What gives? I know I have…

My Hummus Is Yummus
I just take garbanzo beans (a.k.a. chickpeas), some olive oil, a little lemon juice and some garlic and/or onions, red pepper or whatever spice you wanna put in there, and I run the whole shabang through my little zizzy thing that we got at Walgreen's.
