| Fitness | A nice butt and thigh burner... | May 06 2006 06:41 (UTC) |

| Proper lunges. I hate explaining things like this because I'm scared I'll mess it up. But here goes. =P
Mainly, you want to stand straight up at first, hands at your sides. You'll take your right foot and step forward. Then bend (as if you were going to kneel on one leg) until your left knee aaalllllmooossstttt touches the ground. And keep your back straight. I hope that helps. Maybe I can find pictures online... hmmm... |

| LOL. Hun, I grew up in an Italian household-- a REAL Italian household... making homemade wine, sauce, etc. So besides lots of pasta and bread, red wine is nothing new to me. I consider myself lucky, though, because it made me lose most teenagers' urge to binge on alcohol. ;)
Thanks very much for your reply. I do appreciate it. It's hard to get back on a healthy track after years of a bad body image and society's sudden urge to be super thin, and words like yours are exactly what people need. :) |

| Dee, you are everyone's hero as of right now. ;) I want to lose a little weight, and do it healthily. And as you seem to be very knowledgable, I want to see what you think.
I am 135 lbs, young at 18, and short at 5 feet 1 inch. I calculated my BMR at about 1445. I consider myself moderately active (sports 5 times a week), so that brings me to 2340. Currently, I'm eating 1500 calories a day in hopes to get down to about 125. I've never really gotten info from someone who specializes in fitness plans and eating healthy. I used to be around 165, and I lost about 20 of that by not eating due to depression from many a thing. It ended up backfiring, of course, and I ending up gaining much of it back when I started eating normally. I'm over that stage, and I've worked myself down to 135 with exercise and good eating (or so I think). I'd like to continue doing this the right way. So anything you can offer me would be much appreciated! |

| Actually, it makes a lot of sense, Dove. I am active, but I put mine on lightly active, merely because I don't sit on my arse all day. :) After, I just add in my workout.
Thanks to everyone who responded. :) |

| Weight Loss | Just wondering what you thought.... | May 02 2006 04:36 (UTC) |

| I have a 1300-1500 calorie intake set for me as I work on losing some pounds. Today I was at bearly over a 1000, and considering I work out and etc (2000+ calories burned normally), I allowed myself an ice cream bar. :) | |||

| Weight Loss | measurements | May 01 2006 16:13 (UTC) |

| I measured sometime in March. I haven't really lost anything, so they'll probably be the same now if I measured. =P
Waist: 31 inches. Hips: 39 inches. Bust: 35 inches. Height: 5'1''. Weight: 136 lbs. I don't mind the big hips (they're there to stay, pretty much. Maybe a few inches off, but that's it). Nor do I mind the bust. I want to get the waist down to about 28 or 29 inches, though. My current goal is to get down to about 130 pounds as my first goal, then to 125 after I reach that goal. Hopefully a few inches around the waist with go with those pounds. :) |
