What size did that tag say?!

I had ordered them on-line and the cost to ship them back was more than I was willing to spend and besides I was losing weight so I thought they might fit by this winter. I don't…

Does Strength Training Not Burn Calories?
I mean I know it does but when I enter my strength training exercises there is no calorie trade off like with the cardio. What's the deal with that?

GRRRRRRRRR!
Oh my freaking G-d! I haven't lost a pound in over a week now and it's starting to get a little frustrating! Granted I did crack two ribs and that is making it kind of difficult to work out, but I've been under my calorie goal this whole time, and now I have some crazy, painful pinched nerve thing in my hip. What the crap…
