  8. I got them today from cvs only because there is one by my work and im sure wal-mart will have them!

  16. I have 3. 2 little ones that look like a birthmark now and 1 in the bellybutton where the port is at.
  17. Working out will make you lose more lbs quicker. Atleast in most people. Also, Idk about you but I feel great after my workouts. Does it give your more energy? and motivation? It's sad because when I dont go to the gym I feel blah and gross. lol I think im addicted now! But its a good thing because less saggy skin on this body baby! Working out is a good thing! dont look at it negative Have you taken any classes? or dvds at home? Those are usually fun! Try different types of workouts so you dont get bored. Good Luck!
