Beginner Shred vs. 30 Day Shred (Jillian Michaels)
I'm trying to decide which dvd to purchase and start with. I zumba 2 to 3 days a week, but would like to add something to make me stronger and toned. I had tried the body shred class at the gym and really liked it, and was seeing results, but the rates at the gym changed so I can't afford the extra class. I would like to…

Success on a Low Carb Diet?
I'm curious to know if anyone following a low-carb diet (Keto/Paleo/Atkins/South Beach) has had any success with keeping weight off long-term, and if anyone has been able to maintain eating low-carb for longer than 1 year? It seems that from everything I've read here that it is not sustainable long-term. However, I've been…

Time to resize my wedding ring!
So, little NSV....today, I had to take my wedding ring off. I've lost some weight, and the ring fits so loose that I'm afraid it will fall off while I'm cleaning and doing dishes. Yay! Go, me!

Restaurant Food Dilemma
Go ahead and judge me now: I can't stand the taste, texture and smell of seafood. And the thought of eating creatures that suck mud, like crawdads or crawfish makes me throw up in my mouth a little. I spent my childhood in the south pulling those things out of bayous and ditches, and there is nothing endearing about them…

Amusement park rides
No pics, sorry! But, here is my NSV. My husband buys season passes to an amusement park in Denver during the summer. There is a certain scary ride in the shape of a U, and you have to be very secured because you sit on something that resembles a skateboard platform that spins around as you're going up and down on the U.…

Questions about Atkins
Hi! I have a few questions. Can anyone help? First, if you eat a food that is not on the Atkins-approved list, does that immediately throw you out of ketosis, and you have to start Induction again? Second, does anyone know if Zone bars or Balance bars are compatible with Atkins? I wasn't sure because of the whole…

Is anyone else doing Atkins?
Hi! I joined this site about a week ago! I've been doing Atkins diet for 4 weeks, and have lost 10 lbs. I tried Atkins successfully 2 other times. The first time I lost 30 lbs. The second time, I lost 20 lbs. I put the weight back on, and then some. I think my problem is that I set goals, and then, once I reached those…
