Weight loss question
I'm 5'5 and currently 120 lbs. I don't want to lose weight anymore because I think this weight is much more manageable for me than 115 lbs. I was wondering if I set my MFP goal to maintenance and workout 5 days a week, will I still lose inches? I don't want weight loss anymore.

White Rice
Okay so rice is a very important part of my family's diet and since I don't cook, I have absolutely no control over switching from white to brown rice.

Question about dumbbells: It's silly :P
Since I'm starting CLX and Brazil butt lift in a few weeks, I need to buy dumbbells. I won't go very heavy as I don't want to be muscular looking. So my question is: If I get, say 3 pound dumbbells, does each dumbbell has to be 3 lbs or should their cumulative weight be 3 lbs? Sorry for asking such a silly question XD
