Tower Garden by Juice Plus: Has anyone used this?
A FB friend of mine sells Tower Gardens by Juice Plus and is trying to sell me one. I've always thought having a garden and growing my own fruits and vegetables would be nice, but I don't deal well with weeds and maintenance that goes with gardening (bugs, worms, fertilizer, etc).

Exercise to Build Up a Flat Butt
I swear I have the flattest butt on earth. Heck it's probably more of a dent than flat lol. I've been considering finding some exercise videos or exercises to help build it up.

Over Halfway to Goal (pics)
So I turn 30 tomorrow. I'm so not happy about this but trying to find the positive sides. One thing I realized is that I am over halfway to my goal weight!!! Another thing I realized is that a lot of women strive to be the size they were in high school. Well I am below that!! The summer between 8th grade and high school I…
