I always go for move a lot , lol. It is much easier for me to burn 400 calories at the gym than it is to not eat 400 calories! Also, every pound of muscle that you can add to your frame will burn an extra 30-50 calories a day, how awesome is that ?!? I am a big fan of weight training, as cardio will...

Hi all, Huge congratulations to Jen and Ghost, you're amazing! Laurie, what about just making healthy lifestyle changes, without setting weight goals? Saying 'I need to lose 100 pounds' sounds super intimidating, but if you just say 'I want to take care of my health so I feel better' maybe that will...

Colours that a lot of people seem to love include earth, vineyard, any of the taupes (eutaupia, taupetastic), idolise, most people seem to really like homecoming queen as a highlight (although of course these will depend on skin colour etc.) I don't think that there really are any universally flatte...

Oh Christine, I am so sorry about your dog

So how is everyone going? Zeebs, I haven't managed to read any of the stuff you sent me yet, lol, I have had a very disorganised week! I have however gone to the gym 3x, so that is good :) I did 2x body balance classes (a mix of Tai Chi, pilates and yoga), and 1x body pump (a barbell class). I am re...
