I do not know which wed browser you use, but if you use mozilla firefox you can download an add on called adblock that block ad on sites.  I use it and never see those ads.

Weight Loss To those who have or are upping calories... Feb 23 2009

When I first started counting calories I wanted to lose as much weight as possible so I tried eating a 1200 calorie/day diet.  I was not losing as much weight as I was hoping to lose and after reading a lot of the upping calories posts I decided to up my calorie to 1500 and it made a world of difference.  I started losing weight steadily and have lost a total of 30 pounds.

I am getting married in August, so having pictures that I will be happy to look at forever is my reward.  And to go along with that point, I want to look great on my honeymoon.  I'm down 30 pounds and 20-25 pounds left.  :)

I would like to join!

You can put down 5 pounds for me. (17,500) 

I think I need a little help with my calories burned, though.  I am a teacher so I move around pretty frequently throughout the day.  (I rarely ever sit at a desk.)  I know how to put in my daily exercise, but I do not know what do put in as my base daily calories burned.  I know most people put sedentary and then add their exercise calories burned, but should I go for moderate instead of sedentary?

Weight Loss Is 1200 calories the minimum for everyone? Mar 09 2008

I am SO confused!!!  On CC, it says that if I am sedentary  I should only eat 1200 calories and moderate 1450.  I have been aiming for about between the two.  Now, when I calculate my BMR it says my calorie intake to be around 1600 calories.  I do not know which one to trust?  Help!

Try using a sports bra with an underwire.  I have the same problem and the underwire helps a lot.  It sounds a little uncomfortable, but it's more comfortable than boucing around alot. 
Weight Loss Any tips for using a George Foreman Next Grilleration grill? Jun 30 2006

I have the larger George Foreman grill and love it!  I used to have a smaller one as well and got this one for Christmas.  It is much easier to clean the plates since you can take them out.  They do cook a bit quicker than the smaller ones and you can adjust the temperature to what you want.  I haven't cooked fish on it yet but I made very good pork chops!

Allergy Remedies
Is It Possible to Go Natural?
The side effects of allergy medications keep some people from using them. Natural remedies can be a great alternative, but some are more effective than others.
