Is my fat head shrinking?
Serious question! My glasses keep falling off my face. They never done this before and they haven't stretched or anything. If I am changing my daughter's diaper my glasses will fall off my face because I'm looking down and my head is pointing downward. :/ I've heard of your face shrinking but not your head...

Cookies for Santa?
Do you do cookies for "Santa" in your house? If you have kids of course? We usually do, but was wondering what are other Healthy ideas? Husband and I were discussing this. Usually we split the plate of cookies. I wonder if the kids would buy that Santa put a memo out to all parents that he does not want cookies, but rather…

What is the biggest obstacle you've over came?
Within your journey of living healthier, weight loss, maintaining, or even toning. What's been the hardest part to over come? For me it's been giving up sweet's and fast food. Or eating out and settling for the healthier choices on the menu instead of caving into what I'd really like to have. It's been training my mind…

Probably a stupid question
Some mama's who have had babies, our hips have spread, and while I'm thinking about it I seriously doubt anything can make them go back to pre-pregnancy lol. But thought I'd ask? Mine only spread a very very little I notice because one of my hip bones sticks out a lot further then the other when before my daughter it…
-
Pancakes?
Ummm I have a box of pancake mix and I know it's not the most healthy nutritious thing, how can you make healthy pancakes? Anyone have a recipe? I've heard of protein pancakes but not sure that's what I am looking for or something else? Lower in the carb area, lower in calories, but maybe higher in fiber and protein?

I have more weight to lose then I though
Well my daughter is on WIC I really love that program, trains parents how to start their kids out healthy :D ... Anyways, while there at her appt. today I noticed a thing to see how tall you are and since it went up to over 6ft tall I thought "Why not" and I stood up to it with my back up against it and I'm not 5ft 3 in…
-
Birthday parties?
Saturday is my daughter's birthday party. I was curious what you do on Birthdays, will you have a little slice of cake or will you say no and stick to your veggies and rice cakes? (examples not saying you eat all that) I keep saying how I will not be digging into her cake, she is turning 1 and I was told by everyone around…

How to log couch to 5k?
So I'm just curious how do you all log the couch to 5k? I will be starting the first day of it today. It looks to be more walking then jogging for this one, and since I do not have a HMR what do you put it under? I also was wondering if someone could tell me to be sure how many calories I have burned? I know each person is…

couch to 5k question?
This might sound silly but is it a DVD or what? I keep hearing about it, and would love to check this out.

Stretch marks? Is it possible?
I have really bad stretch marks since having kids, and I've recently notice them in places I really really hate them besides my stomach, is it possible to rid them all? Or at least make them very very very unnoticeable? And if so, what are some good workouts to improve this? I already do crunches and situps.

Eating right on a budget
So do you guys have any budget friendly dinner ideas? Until Probably Feb we're going to be on a very tight budget, I'm talking like $50.00 (maybe $100) a week budget on groceries, and with 4 (2 adults, 8 year old, and 1 yr old) of us in the house, we're gonna have to make this stretch. I keep hearing that it's just as much…

YAY! - NSV (with pix)
Ok so yesterday I was not expecting to try on any clothes, but we were out shopping and we went to one of my old favorite stores when I was a teenager, I've not worn their clothes since I was a teenager, It's Aeropostale, the one in my mall does not carry jeans bigger then a size 12 (or that's all I ever see). Well I was…

I want to wear sexy boots!
You know the kind that go over the calves and maybe a pair of hooker boots that go to the thigh? I love them but last time I tried them on I couldn't get them to zip lol. To me my legs don't look big, and the last time I tried them on though I was over 200lbs, so maybe just maybe my legs shrinked a little? I never thought…

What's for breakfast, Lunch, and dinner?

Me I'm working on losing weight, inches, and toning. Breakfast - Coffee and a small bowl of oatmeal Lunch - Water and another bowl…

Cabbage?
The only way I know how to make cabbage is fried, not so good for you drenched in butter, so um any other options on how to cook it?
-
Fish oil?
I'm curious if anyone takes fish oil and if it's a good thing to take? Will it help me in any way or should I not even bother with it?
-
Does exercise boost the sex drive?
I've noticed that since I've been working out pretty hard and regular, my sex drive has went through the roof. I'm not complaining, but either I've hit my peek (I'll be 30 in March) or it's the exercise. Anyone else? My husband thinks I've become a freak or something LOL.
-
Toning the bust area?
I have already dropped 1 cup size since I've lost weight, I've always been pretty top heavy growing up, even when I was at my smallest, so I don't really expect to drop much if anymore up top. I wouldn't say they are saggy cus they aren't, they just could use to be a little more toned, is there any kind of exercise that is…
-
Can officially say I'm at my smallest in 8yrs
I hit 179.6 this morning, which is huge for me. I have always been 180 and above since I had my son I know it's not much below but it is my "Before Thanksgiving, I want to be below 180" goal lol. My body hasn't changed since my last set of pic's but I can also fit into my size 12's and they aren't too tight anymore I can…

Wine
Urg! I told myself I would not have a glass of wine till Thanksgiving. Well I did last night and gained. Why every time I drink a glass of wine I gain? I only gained a pound since Wednesday. I know all the yummy food didn't help but, I know if I did not have that glass of wine it might have just been a few ounces.

To those who jog, I have a question.
I do not currently jog, I just walk at a fast pace. I feel like I'm still too big to think about jogging but part of me wants to try it. I've never been someone who enjoyed sweating but I broke through that and now I push hard to get that sweat. I never been a runner always hated it, but I want to push myself to that…

Does exercising make you less depressed?
Basically I am wondering if exercising on a regular bases has an effect on depression? I am typically a depressed person, well I never realized I was till recent, I've noticed that I really feel happier about myself when I work out. Like yesterday I didn't work out at all and I was really down and depressed. It's not the…

I've not been this sore in years. I'm not complaining, cus I know it's a good sore that my body needs. My question is it good to continue…

30 day shed question?
Has anyone did this without dumb bells and was your success from it still really good? I started today but have no dumb bells and hoping to still get good results. I feel a major burn but just curious. If you have a remediation to use something instead of dumb bells care to share?
