    Help me cleanup my diet

    I too am going through a chocholate phase. I have chocolate oatmeal in the morning. It gives me enough chocolate flavor to satisfy and since i have it most days, I can turn down a lot knowing that in the morning I can sit and enjoy my chocolate oatmeal. You can use whatever you like in in. A lot...

    Nat - I did it, I got BB! I got it off ebay for 45.00. Pretty good deal, hopefully. I did get the Lucky seven with it. I know you do way more reading about fitness than I do. I read that Nia does use intermitted fasting. In her 12 week program does it talk about this at all? I have found...

I actually did this with my 20 yo niece and my mother part of the time. It was fun. I walked 5 miles today...

    Not using a weight scale anymore

    I another convert. I never owned a scale but would hope on my moms often. I let the number effect how i felt or what i did for the day. I actually went and bought one. Then I was weighing myself daily, not good. I stopped a month ago and even though its been only a month i feel more in control...

    Poll: Best rotation?

    I have been doing the shape up for summer for April and got good results. Not sure about weight loss because I too have thrown out the scale and try to focus on the positive things like upping my weights and noticing my tummy is flatter than it has ever been. Sarah

    How do you stop your child from picking at scabs?

    Picking scabs is a guilty pleasure still sometimes. I'm just being honest but I know it's gross. I also bit my nails until I was 38 after trying absolutely everything. Maybe pictures of scars? It helps me also to cover the scab with the waterproof nexcare bandages so i dont have to change them...
