Belly fat cure... Despite popular opinion
Ok so despite popular opinion, I started the Belly Fat Cure diet on Monday. I have previously lost 60+ lbs with diet and exercise but I have recently been at a stand still and I really wanted to lose about 10-15 more lbs before a wedding in August. It's not overly radical with the exception of not being able to eat fruit…

Dr. Oz green drink
Ok so I just want to know if I'm doing something wrong.. Today I made Dr. Oz's green drink according to the recipe I found on his website and I think I am doing something terribly wrong- what I made was by no means a "drink". It was far more like green sludge that actually didnt taste bad but I could NOT choke it down…

Bum knee with my first half only 3 weeks away!
Ok so my first half marathon is only 3 weeks away and tonight my right knee is a MESS! It started on my long run last Sunday and I can't seem to get right. I am on the bubble as is, as far as my training is concerned; I don't want to not do it but I don't know what the best course of action is. Do i rest it? Push through…

How (not) to give a complement
I am a very modest person and do not take complements well as it is... Having lost over 65lbs it has certainly become glaringly obvious and people for whatever reason, feel the need to discuss it. I can handle, "wow, you look great!" or even "have you lost weight?" However the following things are not appropriate. For any…

Belly Fat Cure
Anyone try the belly fat cure diet? I am not particularly into low, carb hi fat protien diets but this caught my eye. Some parts seem really super interesting others teetering on unhealthy?? Would love some feedback :) Thanks!

Running Blues...
I just recently started running on a treadmill, and have officially signed up for my first 5K! Yay... however I am really starting to ache in all my joints: my hips, my knee, ankles.. even some pain in my shins. My question is at what point is the pain too much to be running with? I don't want to do more damage by "pushing…

What is everyone's favorite song to workout to?
I always do this. I think of about a million songs I want to download on my iPod then when I actually go to, I forget all of them! Ugh. Need inspiration quick! I prefer up-beat, non-death metal. Thanks :)

Looking for a super fat blasting gym workout
I am involved in a few different weight loss challenges at the moment and am hoping for a substantial loss at my "Biggest Loser" weigh in at work on Friday... Does anyone have any good treadmill/ circuit training/ gym workouts they reccomend? I only have about an hour a day so the more efficient, the better. Thanks in…

Drinking and dieting
So I have a confession to make: I like to drink. Not tons, not to get wasted, but I like wine, vodka, and even beer a lot. Certainly way too much to give up... So my question is: how can I keep my lovely social habit and still stay on track? Any ideas appreciated :)
