Advice on how to deal with other peoples comments on my diet
I weigh around 132 and it is so so hard for me when people hear that I'm dieting and tell me, "You do not need to diet, you're crazy, your already skinny, etc" . I already struggle because I have not been losing weight like I thought I would (4 pounds in 6 weeks), and their comments don't make it easier. I am short (61…

Day Off of Exercise
I know that everyone says that you should take a day off from exercise...BUT I don't think I want to and here are my reasons why. 1. The 30 Day Shred program takes me 30 minutes tops which isn't a lot of time and if I have the time to do it, why shouldn't I burn the calories working out? 2. My biggest reason is that when I…

Foot pain
Over the past three days I have been experiencing pain in my right foot. I have been walking/running about 3 miles every day and which I have only begun doing recently, so I thought it was just my body warming up to the exercise.

New recipe that I love!
I tried a new recipe that I saw in the magazine Eating Well and it was delicious!

Even without the extra…

my new favorite meal
WOW. I just had a Healthy Choice steamer- sesame glazed chicken and it was amazing! It was the best frozen health meal I have ever had, it didn't even taste like it had been frozen or like it only had 300 some calories and 5 grams of fat. If one of your guilty foods is chinese you have to try this meal!

Lack of support
Do any of you have a spouse who isn't necessarily supportive of your healthy lifestyle? It's not that my husband doesn't want me to lose weight, but he makes it so difficult sometimes. He fills the house with junk food, encourages (and almost pressures) me to cheat on my diet, and makes a big stink out me going to the gym…

This weekend was horrible
This weekend my husband and I went to Seattle and not only did I pig out every day, but I didn't exercise at all (unless you count working my masseter because of chewing!). I feel completely bloated and disgusting and have lost all motivation to keep "dieting". I know that all it takes is a few days of pushing myself…
