    I last left you off HERE and gave you a taste of my dress shopping journey. Not much has changed since then (in terms of my weight loss). One of my friends analyzed my situation and diagnosed this:

    - I am not motivated enough to do it

    - I am FAPPY (fat & happy).

    Thanks to one of our brides (Miss S), I was able to snag a GROUPON deal for BIKRAM YOGA (1 month unlimited) and really get my FAPPY arse in shape. SO PLEASE KEEP ME ACCOUNTABLE! I will be starting this next week. O! and also, has anyone tried BIKRAM YOGA and have any advice for me.

    What else has changed since my last dress shopping? My taste in dresses!

    Keep reading for the next set of dress contenders~

    During our trials, our conversations often take a turn towards weird topics.  Diets, mother-in-laws, bridesmaids’ dresses, childbirth and even gas problems! It came to my attention that there are some brides who may worry about similar things that I had worried about — such as “what if I had stomach problems on my wedding day?”

    Of course, the solution to that is watching what you eat. I’ve been eating a lot more Lactaid and Activia because they are supposed to help you digest. I really liked what I heard about Activia yogurt, especially since it’s known for its female-friendly staple to cure tummy woes.”

    Well … YOU’RE WASTING YOUR TIME!

    Did you know that PURELL kills 99% of germs but leaves 1% of the STRONGEST germ that recolonizes in about 5 minutes and in 20 minutes, it’s back to it’s 100%???

    ALSO, what is the point of PURELL-ing when the next thing you touch is covered in germs that get transferred back to your PURELL-ed hands???

    So what hope do we germ-o-phob’s have??

    Holiday weight

    by Carol, posted in Health, Self

    I always expect to gain a good 2 lbs or so during the holidays. And why? Because this is the time to drink hot cocoa (with extra whipped cream please!) cookies and all the other types of glorious holiday food!

    Sounds gross right?

    Now that we’ve moved apartments, we have much more space in the living room for exercising.  Aside from doing some yoga moves while watching TV, I do some of these for cardio:
