Starting Over
My name is Michelle. I'm 22 years old and a mother to two beautiful children. After I had my son, I signed up for MyFitnessPal and lost a lot of weight. Then, I got pregnant with my daughter.

A peek inside the bathroom....
Okay, this subject is a little embarassing to be talking about with the strangers but I need advice! I'm cutting down my calories and exercising and my weight hasn't been budging.

Are there any exercises where I can get a flatter tummy? Or is it genetically impossible, like my family says. Also, I did have a baby 10 months ago and I've heard that mommy…

I've always loved breads...especially sourdough and Italian...I crave these more than junk food. How can I find a lower calorie way to satisfy my bread cravings?

How does sodium work?
Sodium is just salt, right? Well, what's the effect it has on the body and how much are you supposed to get a day? Basically, what all does it do in your body?

Busy busy mom
My name is Michelle. I have a 9 month old boy who is a BIG momma's boy. I can't even sit on the couch, I have to be on the floor with him. I work from 7:30 until 5:30 in the evening and then I have to go home and cook and clean the house. I usually go to bed by 9 because my son will wake up twice at night and my husband…
