Workout DVDs
I'm looking for workout DVDs that are similar to the 30 Day Shred, but are from someone that is not Jillian. I like her just fine, but I want to try something new and I don't have any idea where to start. I'm not ready for anything like Insanity of P90X though. Anyone have DVDs that they love?

Where to buy clothes?
I turned 30 this year and I struggle to find clothes to wear. I feel too old to wear most of the stuff in the Juniors section and I'm not old enough to shop in the women's sections...what stores out there have an "in between" women's section. I've never been much of a shopper so I have no idea where to go. Any suggestions…

Exercise to feel younger?
I mainly used this site to count calories and lost 15 pounds by doing that. I'm only 30, but I'm already starting to feel "old." My knees hurt, my hips feel out of joint most of the time, etc. I'm wondering, if I start to exercise on a regular basis will it help with any of this? It seems like I shouldn't be in so much…

Planks
What exactly is "doing planks?" I know what plank position is, but then what? Do I just stay in that position for a certain amount of time or is there some movement involved that makes it "doing planks" instead of just being in the plank position?

What is your highest calorie meal of the day?
I'm just curious when everyone eats the most calories? My dinners are the highest for me, usually about 500-600 calories. If you eat more than 3 meals a day...give me a time frame of when you think you eat the most of your calories.

Another belly question...
How do I know if my belly is fat or just skin from having kids? If it's skin then no amount of me trying to get rid of it is going to work. Can a doctor tell me, or do I need to go to a plastic surgeon. Can a personal trainer tell me? I'm sure I have a little bit of fat, but I think it's mostly skin, I'd like to know for…

Pineapple
Just bought a whole pineapple at the store today and I'm wondering how do I know when it's ripe? I don't want to cut it up before it's ripe.

Building muscle
I'm basically at a weight that I'm happy with, within 4 pounds or so. My question is how do I build muscle and lower my body fat? Can I do it at home without gym equipment and a trainer? What types of things should I do? Do I need to keep doing cardio or focus more on strength training? Help please!

Cravings...
I've been on MFP for almost 2 months now and I'm loving it! I've learned to eat the right amount of food everyday and I've lost 6 pounds. I however, have also learned to eat less at meals so that I still have room for the treats that I crave every day, like my salty snacks and my sweet snacks. I'm ready to kick it up a…

Zero Calorie Sparkling Water
I found some Zero Calorie Flavored sparkling water at the grocery store the other day so I bought some to try and have fallen in love. It takes care of my sweet tooth when I want to gorge myself with candy etc and it keeps me feeling full after only drinking a little of it. I'm just wondering if it's good for me...…

Walk Away the Pounds
I've heard great things about this DVD and went to find it on Amazon and it came up with so many different DVDs. I didn't know that Leslie Sansone had so many. Any suggestions of what to get? Which ones have you guys tried and liked? I want to get one, but have no idea which one. I will be using it as my cardio exercise…

Fiber
I know what eating a lot of fiber will do to my insides, but is it bad health wise to eat too much fiber? I still have almost 600 calories to eat today and I'm already 4 grams over on fiber. How that happened, I don't really know I didn't think that what I ate today had much fiber, but apparently it all added up.

Standing up straight
I started the 30 day shred 11 days ago and ever since about day 5 I have noticed that I stand and sit up straighter than I used to and I find myself tightening my abs at the same time. My mom would be so proud. She's spent her entire life telling me to stand up straight and Jillian seems to be getting my core strong enough…

Other exercise with 30 Day Shred?
Like many people here I started the 30 Day Shred today. I'm new to the whole exercising thing and am wondering if I should be doing any other types of exercise while I do this. I'm not really looking to lose more than 5-10 pounds. I'm really here to start eating healthier and getting into shape. I'm turning 30 this year…
