Dealing With Your Emotions..
I used to eat my emotions. Sadness/Depression was the one that hit the hardest. That was the time where I wanted all the foods that were bad for you,but tasted oh so good. I'd make myself happy with a value meal from McDonalds an ice cream from Dairy Queen and then half a pan of brownies when I got home, but the truth is,…

Time to start some trouble...LOL
I know MFP Doesn't allow nude pix, but here is my question. Being that we are all adults, or atleast young adults what is the REAL issue with nudity?

At the end of the day I…

Exercise & TTC (trying to conceive)
Hi People! Ok so I know working out isn't bad while TTC or even while pregnant, but I'm kinda scared to do any ab work during this time. I'm in the firs couple days of my 2 Week wait.

The Sweat Myth
If you don’t work up a sweat, you aren’t working hard enough. Truth: Don’t sweat the lack of perspiration, it doesn’t mean you aren’t working hard enough to torch calories. “Your body cools itself through evaporation which causes the body to sweat,” said Decker. “If a person sweats a lot this doesn’t mean that they are…

Faux Vitatops
So I was super duper excited to see vita tops were on sale B1G1 Free at publix today, But even a B1G1 $5 For 8 cookie/muffin/cake things is a bit expensive to me. And If I REALLY Liked them, then what? $5 for 4 When they aren't on sale?!? That just won't do. Enter my creative side. 1 Box Jiffy Chocolate Muffin Mix Seltzer…
