How…

I love going out dancing and its been a while since the last…

How much time before?
I am not one of those people that can go to the gym on an empty stomach. If I don't eat before I feel like I am going to pass out. I get all shaky it's not good. So how much time should I eat before going to the gym? That sentence doesn't sound right but hopefully you know what I mean lol

Why I hate eating breakfast.
I know that breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I know that it jump starts your metabalism but I hate eating it. If I don't eat breakfast until like 11ish, I'm fine. I'm hungry but I can deal with it. When I eat an early breakfast like today, Im freakin starving all morning!! I end up eating more!

I do the arc trainer(almost the same thing as an elipticle)…
