TMI...But I need to know! FOR LADIES ONLY PLEASE!
Yesterday was my first Zumba class. It was AWESOME, but half way through my nipples were really hard and in terrible pain. I was trying to keep up and the pain was so distracting. After we cooled down I was just fine, but I was just wondering if this has happened to any other ladies during a workout and/or what do you do…

My cals vs. other's cals
I see a lot of folks on 1200 calories but mine are way high at 1907 a day. This is the recommended guided system and not the one I do myself. I'm still losing weight which is great, but I'm wondering why all those folks have such low calories? Is it because they are not as heavy as I am?

Eating but not hungry
I've noticed in week 4 of this journey that I'm not so hungry anymore. I've been forcing myself to eat my lunch even though I may not be hungry. I know I need the calories, but it really bothers me to eat when not hungry. I just really can't believe that I'm not hungry because I already know I'm a hungry biggum!…

Then I didn't weigh in for 2 weeks and I lost 8.5 lbs!!!!!!! I've been pretty strict with myself and I'm pleased, but I just couldn't believe it! I had to weigh myself…

Logging exercise that isn't in data base.
I been having a dilemma with my exercise logging. I have been using housecleaning for various things I do around the house but I don't consider housecleaning.

No money for clothes
I noticed that a lot of the posts are talking about losing the weight and the clothing not fitting anymore. I know we all want to go out an buy that brand new wardrobe but either money is tight right now or we want to wait until we get to our goal weight. I want to share a secret I have been using for about the past year.…

Meals help Please
I'm usually more hungry in the morning than in the evening. I was wondering which meal is best for your largest meal? I didn't do too well this morning because of my hunger and really need to buy some nutritious snacks.
