Dilemma: What would you do
So when I was doing cardio 3 yesterday, my DVD skipped ahead five minutes. It happened to be over all those lovely jumps (rockstars, squat jacks, squat jumps, star jumps etc).

Do People Say You Don't Need to Lose Weight?
The strangest thing has been happening ever since I started to lose weight: almost everyone I talk to says "you don't need to lose weight." I started at 155 lbs and have a BMI of overweight, so getting in shape and finally trying to take off the baby weight should be a good thing. Are people trying to be nice for when I…
