I wanna dance!
Okay, so I'm just sound-boarding off you guys.. so bear with me, please! I really like to dance.

Meal planning: Turkey
Has anybody actually bought an entire turkey to roast for their meal plans? I feel like I should be doing it, freezing the left overs and have enough turkey for a few months.

Is there really a difference?
I always feel undermined when I go to look for an effective weight loss strength training routine and have to decide whether I want a "men" or "women" routine. Is there really a big difference? I am woman (hear me roar) but do I honestly have to settle for the theory behind what I'm supposed to be doing in the gym?

Okay, I'm realizing that in order for me to get at least one workout in I may need to wake up an hour earlier than I already do.
