Do I have to use machines to do weights?
I'm just checking to make sure my thinking is right on this.. I do Jillian Michaels No Trouble Zones, and Power Sculpt as my "weights" workout a few times a week.

How to Bust through Fatigue of a Tough Day?

Lost my Focus
I'm starting back up again with the food diary after getting distracted for a few weeks. Since I started, I have lost 6 pounds and then gained back three of those pounds.

Hi and nice to meet you from Christy
I just started the food diary on this site and love it! I am so thankful to have found this resource. I have gained about 20 pounds gradually over the past few years, mostly due to emotional eating. Until I logged in all the food I was eating, I had no idea how many calories it actually was. Yikes! Looking forward to…
