Fitness tricks with a baby
Hey girls! So -- how do you fit in exercise when you've got little ones demanding your attention? I do squats, lunges, and calf raises while I'm holding the baby, and we make going for walks a family activity. I make sure my step tracker is on while I'm pacing up and down the hallway with him during the night, too. Every…

When do you workout?
Hey mamas! I'm a mom of 2, I work full-time during the day and I have a long-ish commute, so my pockets of free time are limited. I used to do late night workouts after the kids were in bed, but these days I'd rather use that time to relax and read, so I'm switching to hitting the gym on my lunch breaks, which is good, but…

I'm so glad I found you!
Hello, mamas! My name is Katie, I'm 31 years old, and I'm so happy to be here amongst all you motivated ladies! I just found out last week that I'm pregnant with my 2nd, due in January 2015, and I'm determined to have a fit and healthy pregnancy. I gained something crazy like 60lbs with my first, and I only JUST got back…

Annoying CoWorkers Vent!
Okay, it's time to vent. I have a co-worker who is overweight, and who is forever making comments to me about how she needs to drop some weight, she wants to lose some weight, etc. So, cool. I encourage her when the subject comes up, we chat about strategies and things, but only when she brings it up. Other than heading…

What's your motivation?
So, in this JM dvd I just got -- Killer Buns and Thighs -- she says at one point something like, "How hard are you working? Depends on what kind of results you want." That's been my mantra lately, especially with summer coming up. Last night I killed it on my SELF Bikini Ready Fast dvd, and it felt hella good! So what's…

Ponds
OMG you guys. I just watched Dinos and Town Called Mercy. How sad am I every time The Doctor has a moment with the Ponds? As excited as I am to see the new companion, because I really loved Oswin, I'm so sad about the Ponds' last scenes. Heartbreak!

Need some help here, people!
Okay, so, I'm frustrated and confused. For a month now I have been working out at least 5 days a week and watching what I eat. Not only has the scale not moved, it actually went up a pound yesterday. There are a lot of things that might be in play -- period water weight that might be creeping on right now; my scale being…

Motivation Snowball
Motivation is like a giant ball of snow. It takes work to push it off the cliff, but once it's rolling down the hill, it just grows and grows until it's this huge, unstoppable thing. Each time I've had to contend with the weight loss process, I have to relearn this. The first couple of weeks are the pushing-off-the-cliff…
