I love Success Stories!! And we have a ton of GREAT ones here on Team BuffMother!! I am working hard towards updating and adding Success Stories to www.BuffMother.com and it’s been really fun!! I have a very rewarding “job”~ I’d love to feature each and everyone of you as a SUCCESS STORY!!! That’s the GOAL!
I got in a good little leg workout today despite a kink in my neck- OUCH! I finally broke down and took some advil to help relieve the pain. I hope that tomorrow I’ll be back to normal. I’ve done well with this week’s challenge….I had 3+ greens yesterday: Lettuce, pickle and veggies in chick tortilla soup. And so far today I’ve had a Red pepper and SALSA & I plan on having a chicken salad for dinner.
let’s all strive to be inspiring SUCCESS STORIES!!!
Your friend,
Michelle
P.S.
I didn’t seem to have much to write today for some reason so I’ll share some of my recent “Q&A’s” with you~
================================================================================
Title : Re: Herbal Remedies for Breasts
——————————————————————————–
Q:
Hi, I wanted to know your thoughts on herbal remedies for breast enhancement. I have had 3 babies who are now all in their teens. With age and significant weight loss recently I have found that my breasts have totally “lost their starch”. I have read that herbal remedies can promote hormones to enhance this problem. As a mother and woman into fitness, can you tell me if these are worth while? I really have no desire to have surgery for improvement and know that your theories through your website are hormonal based. I would be most grateful for any of your thoughts on this subject.
A:
Well,
Despite big promises, don’t believe the hype. Herbal supplements don’t work to regain breast tissue. I personally tried it, lol!
Great job on getting back in shape as a mother and know that a great body outweighs having boobs any day.
BTW- I’ve never regretted my breast augmentation or have known any woman who has regretted it:)
Take care!

Title : Re: Creatine?
——————————————————————————–
Q:
Hi buffmother~
I just read your article on creatine for women, I think that it would be beneficial for me to start taking it. Would you mind giving me a recommendation on your favorite brand/type?
Thanks!
A:
I personally prefer creatine that is in a punch form…Like BSN NO-EXPLODE or XYIENCE’s NOXCG-3 or EAS’s.I’ve also taken the Body Fortress Creatine Punch from Wal-mart…it’s good.
The key is to take it consistently and LIFT HEAVY and often while on it 🙂
Go for it!

Title : Re: tips for beginners..
——————————————————————————–
Q:
when and/or how often do you change your workouts? as far as lifting, that is…. also, any tips you may have for a beginner, i would love to hear! thanks!
A:
HI! thanks for your nice friend request and note!
I us my Hormonal Timing training program. the program consists of 2 – 2 week phases~ so every 2 weeks I change things up.
As for beginner tips, stay focused on creating consistency in your workout routine. I started with the goal of working out every other day. NO EXCUSES– once I got that habit down I upped my frequency. Also, remember the fact “Muscle Burns Fat” so strive to build and keep muscle on your body~ it is the key to you getting lean.

Title : Re: some insight
——————————————————————————–
Q:
hello I wanted to say hello and say that I think you look great. I am currently getting ready to start my goal to fitness. I have always read about it wanted to be that person with great abs and toned body but struggled to make it happen but I am now on a mission starting this week to make a difference in myself and I am looking for motivation and others who have been there and accomplished it and you look to have done that and you look great. My goal is to loose weight of course and with that gain muscle and get toned I like muscle and would love to someday see it on me. Can I asked what worked for you? I know all our bodies are different but some insight is always great. I am going to start a 3 month program of weights cardio and healthy eating I just know the first month is always the hardest for me to get past. Any input would be awesome and appreciated. Keep up the great work.
