A NEW Weekly Feature!

I've decided to help my friend Shannon, a mother of three young children, lose her belly bulge. She's only 27 and feels like she's trapped in a body that she has no control over.

With three children, she has little time for herself (meal planning, exercising, sleeping, etc.) so I am asking you for help. She's agreed to publicly document her progress each Tuesday with belly bulge photos, measurements
and a description of what comments she found helpful and what strategies she utilized that past week.

Introducing...


Shannon: I feel like I've tried everything. The soup diet, not eating, watching what I eat...I just have very low will power. I'm growing a garden this year to try to eat healthier, but I'm still waiting for things to ripen, and I am at a loss for delicious recipes, too.

Here's the belly today. I took a photo from the side, underside and front.



I don't look bulgy if I can tuck the flab into my pants, but I feel generally unattractive, especially when naked. I can only imagine what my husband thinks since I haven't got the courage to ask him. I also have some asymmetrical bulging on my left side.

Thanks in advance for all your help.

Measurements:
Around belly button: 32"
Around bulge: 37"
Weight: 150 lbs

This week's plan: Seriously watch what I eat. Try to at least exercise 30 minutes with cardio and do 50 sit ups each day.

Until next week...
