For lower, try reverse crunches, or place a ball between your knees and lower and lift your legs (that's a tough one, the ball should be no more than 6 pounds max). You can keep your knees bent or straighten your legs, the latter is harder (and place your hands under your butt to protect your lower back). You can keep your shoulders either off on on your floor. And, oh, planks are awesome - remember to keep your abs pulled in! 
Can you explain both the reverse crunches and planks please?  For reverse crunches, lift your legs and bend your knees do that they are parallel. Lower and lift them as you would crunch your upper body. You can also lift both your upper & lower body at the same time, or keep your head and shoulders on the floor. To make it harder, barely touch the floor with your feet while doing as many reps as you can. Planks are done while in a traditonal military style push-up position. Get on all fours as if you were going to do push-ups (Not girl style on you knees, lol), and keep your forearms on the floor and you'll be on your toes. Stay in thsi position for as long as you can and keep your abs pulled in. If you're doing it right, you WILL feel it. | |

Thats okay. If you indulge yourself once in a while you won't feel so starved. After a week of being good a little mac won't hurt. When i'm trying to slim, i'm good all week, then eat what I want on a saturday. U still lose weight. Ya, allow myself one cheat day! But then I'll do an extra exercise tape that day   | |

Confession thread ok I have not been eating well this past week and I felt dizzy this morning. I really like spicy food. I mostly put Jalapenos on a lot of my food.

Mach said: CarrieMpls said: I don't know if it completely normal, ( ) but I'd guess we've all been there once or twice.
 I've been there countless times
Maybe I'm lucky to be so fat. I'm so far from whateverthefuck "perfect" is supposed to be that if I were going to wait for a day when I felt skinny and pretty to see my friends, I wouldn't have any friends.
And I love to swim, which requires being seen in a bathing suit. I know that some people are grossed out by my body, but. . .they can look away. I want to swim, dammit. 
I go to hot tubs with my friends. . . sometimes naked. I know I'm gonna be the fattest one. I don't have to wonder. It's a weird sort of freedom, but I think I might prefer it to the feelings that some of you are describing. oh noes, prince is gonna soo me!!1! | |

i love to swim too. and as much as i've gained weight back in the right swimsuit i think my body looks nice for a size 16 the pool i go to is the main diving/swimming competition pool so there are always parents waiting in the bleachers. the men stare... and i can't help but think "yeah, that's right... these are TITTIES"   She couldn't stop crying 'cause she knew he was gone to stay | |

my fat confession:
I think I may have an unhealthy body image too, and I'm a guy. I'm thin,but I see the little bit of fat and I'm embarassed of it at times. I feel like I need to lose it. I'm not underweight (or overweight), but I think that's maybe how it starts. You don't feel fat, but you see that you have fat. My Legacy

SureThing said: One of my friends has hot tub nite at her house once a month. It was last nite.
All my friends are either my size or a little bit bigger. I didn't go last nite, even thought I really wanted to, cuz I felt fat and that I mite not be the skinniest one there. Then I lied about it.  
fat girls have the nicest tits. So none of the guys are gonna complain honey! Besides I'm fat right now too. For the past 1 1/2 I've been trying to bulk up and get more "bunchy", but I've added too much fat to my body. Now I'm trying to figure out a way to slim down but without losing the muscle.
My waste is now 36 fucking inches!  | |

It's actually hard when your really thin because you notice the 10 pounds even easier. Also I think "I could look really good if only I lost this bit of fat. I see the flaw rather than the bigger picture. It's probably the same for you, since I'm sure you would shine in the hot tub My Legacy
