Nobody warned me (Warning, gross topic)
Please stop reading here if you are easily offended. After 11 years in the fire service, certain taboo subjects become humorous conversations. Nobody warned me that eating more vegetables would make my new, healthier eating habits, well, explosive. I can't imagine how gaseous emissions can be any healthier for me than my…

Dumb question.........
Ok, yesterday I went 250 over my calorie limit....I tried to get my butt up to go to the gym to work it off, but could't manage it.

Ive read that you need a certain amount of carbs for energy, but the excess is stored...Does that mean excess for one meal, or for the whole day?

if your not really hungry, but should eat?
OK, so I haven't been really hungry today, and have had a couple days like that. (not in a row) Is it really OK to supliment say 2 meals with some kind of a nutrition bar? It saves a lot of calories, but is it healthy to do that? Specially when the nutrition bars are only 150 or less in calories? And I ran for an hour this…

Coffee tricks?
Okay, so we're all trying to cut calories...My worst culprit seems to be in my morning coffee. And there's NO WAY I'm ridding myself of it altogether.
