A lot of stuff is linked to cancer that we still use everyday, like canned goods, plastics, moisturizers, hair dye, deodorant.

I drink 1 diet soda every other day, sometimes everyday, sometimes 2 a day, I haven't gained a pound for 2years, I think they might cause you to retain water, and depending on you personally could trigger or suppress a sweet craving.

GO ON MAURY

Is it like a cramp? Try stretching out really well before you go and also don't run with food in your tummy, some people can but I find it makes my stomach cramp

I always want to snack just before bed.  Im only taking in bout 600 cals a day so dont worry too much about wot I have, but I love to have a couple of snack a jacks- about 51 cal in the jumbo caramel ones and 62 in jumbo choc.  They always fill me up.  Good luck with keeping those bears in ur belly at bay x

sorry I meant is this a joke?

wow, for someone who doesn't have this problem you certainly think you know a lot about it

I haven't had that problem with mine, it's always the exact same as my bathroom scale, but like Karozel said make sure you put it in the same place everytime because that can change the result also try and wear the same clothes everytime or very similar weighted clothes.

I love my wii fit! I do the 30minute free jog and super 10minute hula hoop everyday. Have lost 8 pounds! (I also run outside)

Thanks for the ideas,  I love the yoga work out type stuff so thanks for those suggestions Karrebeaar.

I tried the biggest loser cardio max dvd and liked it (until I got bored of it) There was a cool down yoga thing on that with Bob and I found it pretty cheesy but maybe a whole dvd devoted to it will be different.

Rosieblue I have done that 4 part workout a few times and some others by Sadie Nardini and thought they were ok, so thanks for that suggestion.

That's a good idea to look on netflix, I have it, and use it all the time, it never crossed my mind to get exercise dvds on there

thanks everyone

no I've done it for a couple years, I'm no pro or anything. I run everyday and I'm just looking for something to stretch and tone and have fun at home since I can't get out now for a class

I used to take kick boxing, it was tonnes of fun but really hard!

You can sometimes get it on ebay cheaper but its best to buy it from the actual site. I know it seems pricey but it's a good investment really! It's also a wonderful company so I like to support them. But if it's way out of your price range the vs stuff is good too.

ps. I love vs bras,undies and pj's I checked out the semi annual and stocked up already!

Well I saw this post and thought I'd try the 4 part workout, it feels nice and you feel really stretched out afterwords, but I'm not sure how many calories you actually are burning feels more like a stretching/relaxing/toning? thing. It felt nice though and I will do it again for sure, also will keep at my cardio stuff! 

Just thought I'd also mention that the lady who does the workouts says to eat between 1200-1500 calories and once you start to lose weight you can start to eat more like a cookie here and there, for example, just like any other diet or weight loss advice! I think people got the wrong idea about that.

ps holy **** on your pictures! just thinking of bending like that hurts! And you look awesome!

She doesn't want to use her potty outside of the bathroom, she usually sits on the actual toilet with those baby seats on it, I tried putting the potty in her room so she could go and be alone but she got really mad "no this goes in bathroom!"

I've tried putting her poops in the potty, she knows thats where it should go if you ask her "where do we go poop?" she says "on the potty!!"  If I try to say lets go to the potty right before she goes she will throw a temper tantrum and say no no non no and I dont want to force her. Also tried the m&ms thing and she  doesn't care! the reward is not worth it to her! I dont understand her! Its so frustrating.

We watched the elmo video and she likes it and thinks its funny, sometimes she'll say, "he just made a peepee not poopoo mama" and I'll say "no he made a poop hes a big boy now!" and she will ignore me. ahhh its so hard

well I guess some people like em and some don't! I wasn't looking for something to replace regular pasta, I'm not a big pasta eater, just thought these looked healthy and interesting, thanks for comments. I will give them a try since they are not too expensive

I got this recipe when i went to weight watchers, their "muffins" but taste like little cakes and are so so so good! if you use the chocolate chips (totally unnecessary) don't mix them in put them on top of the muffin after they've cooked, sooo good!!! and healthy!

FIBER MUFFIN

3 cups all bran cereal or fibre 1 

2 1/2 cups boiling water

mix in a bowl and let stand till mushy

bowl 2 - 1 box lowfat brownie mix

1 tbsp baking powder

1/2 cup cocoa powder (not chocolate milk powder

1 cup grated zucchini

3 tbsp chocolate chips ( optional )

mix the bowls together well

spray muffin tins lightly and bake for 20-25 mins @ 350 degrees
