    I second the eggs. I boil up a bunch and grab a few whenever I feel like I need a little protein. Sometimes I put mustard on them -- gross to some people, but if you like deviled eggs, its not that...

    Thanks for your rant -- I think it will help other girls. I think too many times girls go into the show with no real trainer or plan just because they think they look "hot" and end up placing really...

    You can't spot reduce. No matter how much people want to believe it can be done, it can't. Your body naturally stores fat in various places. You have no control over where that is.

    Did she tell you her diet was good or did you thoroughly go over her diet with her and determine it was good? You'd be surprised what some people think is a good diet. If she's at 37% bodyfat, I...

    If you are going to go the online route, I'd do some research. I've had both in person and online coaches and both can be good depending on your needs. But be aware that there is a lot of bad...

    I found that I could never lose the last 10 lbs while breastfeeding. I'm not sure exactly why because everyone said it supposedly helps you lose weight, but it didn't in my case. I've since spoken...

    I just want to say that the whole "keep your heart rate under 150 thing" is not true. There have been studies that have disproven it. You should of course always check with your doctor, but that...
