I'm Pissed at Myself!!
Three and a half years ago, I worked my booty off....literally. I had just had my 4th child, joined a gym and lost 43 lbs in 10 months. I became an athlete, had 17 % body fat, and was in the best shape of my life. However, I got my real estate license, and never wanting to fail, gave that 100% and totally stopped working…

I took it easy for 2 weeks, torture, but when the pain didn't…

How do you not get obsessed....?
Once upon a time, I didn't even think about excercising daily, it didn't cross my mind. But now that I have lost the weight, it seems that if I don't get to work out daily, I am in a pissy mood and all I can think about is how the pounds are going to jump right back on my boo hiney. How do you find a healthy balance…

Evacuated for Gustav
Hi All, I live in Southeast Louisiana, and yesterday we started our treck to my husband's family in East Texas. We arrived safely, but this is all too surreal at the moment. We lost EVERYTHING in Katrina three years ago, and now we have two extra children to care for and worry about. Please keep us in your prayers. On a…
