How much weight loss or gain does it take for other people to notice? I've lost and gained the same 10 pounds over a couple of times now and just wonder if it's drastic enough to see a difference. I still fit into all the same clothes, just a little tighter or looser at times...

the website you plug in your ingredients for a recipe and it calculates the nutrition facts? I've done it before maybe on a couple of different sites even, but forgot to bookmark any of them!

I just argued my way INTO a ticket. I think that means I win the loser of the day award. I just hate it though when cops enjoy throwing their weight around so much...

Is this the next P90X? If so, I wonder if it will be much different and worth the investment.

My weekend runs are getting longer. Yesteday I did 8 miles and it was the first time my legs felt like they were cramping up at the end of the run and my body was going to quit before my lungs. What are the guidelines on when to use sport beans/gu's/electrolyte pills, etc.. ?

This is really random but my sister asked me this the other day and now it's at the front of my attention! She asked if since having kids, have my hips become wider and stayed that way? I THINK I'm back to my original size but since I don't have measurements I can't tell. So now I want to hear...

If so, which ones are your favorites and why? I have vol. 2 and 3 and enjoy them and am thinking of getting another. I'm still trying to get back to 100% after a knee surgery 6 weeks ago so I'd like to stay away from any that are heavy in hills for the challenges and do more sprints, my knees...

I run 4-5 days per week and am upping my mileage. How do you maintain long distances and not compromise the muscles you've worked so hard for? I'm enjoying getting back into longer runs but also don't want to lose the definition it's taken so long to achieve.

So far the only "green" things I've added to my smoothies are leafy veggies; spinach, kale, etc.. Right now I don't have any leafy things but plenty of other veggies that need to be used quickly or will end up being thrown out. Has anyone added veggies you wouldn't usually think of using? Like...

I am recovering from my second knee surgery in two years and unfortunately did not stop eating the way I did when I could exercise every day and have gained weight. In attempts to ease back into things (I'm going on the fourth week post-op), I'd like to tighten up my diet too. One of my former...

I understand that all toddlers are picky eaters at some point, but I worry that I can't get my babe a well balanced meal in her most of the time. I try to offer a wide variety of foods but she is not at all interested in veggies or any type of meat, no matter if I try to cook them differently to...

I just got back from a follow-up with my orthopedic surgeon. I've had two knee surgeries in 2 years and REALLY don't want to start a trend here. The issue is that I have "bad rubber on my tires" so to speak, the cartilage in my knees shreds so easily. He suggested I try workouts on a Bosu...

I know I've seen many threads about this but haven't done a search yet to find them. My issue is that after ANY type of workout my knees and hips feel like I'm ninety years old! I've been experimenting with lower impact, no running, shallower squats, you name it. I also take a...

When your kids were young, did you stay home with them even if it meant recieving gov. assistance? I know, what a weird question... The reason being is, DH is going back to school and I've yet to go back to work full time. My little girl just turned one a week ago, and ever since my maternity...

proteins, hmmm... I can't decide what I want my next protein powder or shake to be. I've read conflicting benefits of each source; do y'all have a strong preference of what source your protein powder comes from?

I haven't done a search yet, sorry if this is repetative. Anyway, I've printed all of Kathryn's recipes from her blog but I'm still a little scared to make my own up; I'm afraid I'll make something too yucky to drink and have wasted my ingredients. I'd love to see other's recipes though! and...

I hurt my lower back doing these last week and it's still so tender! Yes, I was being careful about form; not rounding my back, keeping my knees soft not locked, etc.. but still managed to injure myself. I am obviosly going to be taking a little break from these while I recover, but I'd like...

Right now I've only gone back part-time so it's worked out that my own mom or MIL can watch my little girl. Unfortunately the part time thing isn't going to last forever and the grandmas both have jobs and schedules of their own so this arrangement won't last either. I am SO scared of leaving...

I have a wedding to go to that snuck up on me in three weeks. Of course there will be people there who I haven't seen since before I had my little girl and got all rolly-polly:( I know it's not good to go on crash diets but I don't want to show up looking frumpy. I have about 10 lbs. to lose...

Forgive me if something similar has been posted, I didn't even try to look. I'm wondering about all of you fit mamas experience with stretch marks has been. I just had my first baby a couple of months ago and am already worried about what the next one will do to my body. I've seen worse, but I...
