oh no, please don't say that! I have kashi go lean cereal (not the crunch) EVERY morning for the past 4 years (with the exception of vacations. Certainly that couldn't be the problem after all these years with no problems? i really hope this magnesium helps because i really don't want to give up...

Thank you for all the advice and tips so far. I don't think lack of fluids is my problem. I don't know how I could drink any more water without floating away. I drank hot water all day yesterday and that didn't seem to do the trick. I have been taking flaxseed oil capsules so I think I'm...

According to sparkpeople.com, I regularly consume over 34 grams of fiber a day. The FDA recommends 20-25 grams per day. I do not take any fiber supplements, but I do eat really clean. I have been eating like this for over a year so one would think my body would have adjusted by now! I have...

Hi, I'm want to buy a rice cooker but have read some bad reviews on amazon and target.com and wanted to know if anyone has one that they love (or had one that they hate!). Thanks! Jessica

I have been on this BC for 6 years and never experienced any problems - no weight gain, etc. For the past few years I've been skipping the placebos and therefore, not having periods. no problems with that either. Jessica

Hi Cathe, I hope your MRI goes well Friday. I know how frustrating injuries can be and I hope you are able to relax this weekend and enjoy your family. I wanted to let you know that Core Max was listed as the "best all-around ab video" in April's Glamour Magazine (page 149) and I must...

I also was a bit surprised by Chloe's win. However, I think her business experience might have been what helped her win. Although he turned down the Banana Republic internship to work on his own collection, last year's winner, Jay, hasn't put out a collection since his win. Maybe they wanted...

RE: Kathryn, a puncture wound story for ya Kathryn - OUCH! I hope you recover quickly! I feel your pain. When I was in grade school I sat on my bookbag and a pencil lodged into my calf. I pulled the pencil out but there was still a huge piece of lead in my leg that the doctor had to...

I'm interested in trying pilates again. I no longer belong to a gym (where I used to take classes), what dvds do you recommend? TIA Jessica

Hi Amy & Tonya - i'm glad i am not the only one who lost motivation last semester. i haven't received any law school grades yet but i am a little scared this time around b/c i know i did not work as hard as i did last year. Good luck to both of you Jessica

I do not intend to blast anyone with my comments, but I felt as though I had to respond. Sometimes it is not that easy just to get off your butt and lose weight. There are so many factors that affect one's weight. Earlier posters mentioned many, including genetics, personal issues that affect...

I have had to wear contacts for the past 5 years and almost every time I go in I have to get a lower prescription. Like Amy, my doctor said reading a lot may be why my eye sight continues to improve (and like Amy, I am in law school which means all I do is read.) I wear Purevision lenses...

Kali you look fabulous!!!! you have worked so hard and it really shows. you should be so proud of yourself. hubby needs to take you somewhere tropical so you can show your figure off! Jessica

Another member of the no white club, here. I hate white shoes and think they stand out - and not in a good way. I agree with ladies above me who suggested gold and strappy or a nude shoe. Jessica

I'm so bummed I missed it. My brother called me last night and told me they were moving his daughter's birthday party to Saturday so unfortunately I had to miss lunch. We definitely have to meet up again! I can't wait to see pictures! Jessica
