Mirena and weight gain
Hey everyone! I am not new to weight loss at all. Been at this 3 years and I lost 110lbs before getting pregnant with baby number 2.

Popcorn
So, this may be a silly question but it bothers me whenever I see it. We just bought some sea salt and vinegar popcorn and I LOVE it. However, the calories on the label are for unpopped and popped. For unpopped it's way higher like 150 cals and for 1 cup of popped it's only like 35 calories or something like that. Why…

Gold's Gym DVD's
My husband bought me 2 new work out dvds. They are both Gold's Gym ones. (Lose 10 lbs now, and get into your skinny jeans). Anyone have any idea what I should log it under. I did one of them today, all 3 workouts, but I'm not really sure what to call them. I don't have a HRM yet (probably for Christmas) so I can't go by…

Protein Shakes
