Celsius
Celsius claims to burn up to 100 calories... Should this be ingested before or after your workout? I just drank my first one and I feel like I have chills, but that could just be my cold office... I saw Katie Homes drinking one in a magazine once and that is when if first caught my attention. Picked up a couple of cans at…

Overlooked Calories!
I just realized that I've been overlooking calories here and there for the past 2 weeks! How discouraging! For example, it hit me this morning when I entered my breakfast, which was cereal...but of course I added milk, which I haven't been counting. To my horror, that's an additional 120 calories!! And then there's the…

My meals are all organic, whole grain breads, NO white flour, no meat, except for fish. I don't drink alcohol..no sodas of any sort. Only water and tea with NOTHING in it. No candy.…

HoMedics Scale for Mothers Day
Hi. My husband bought me a HoMedics SC-520 for Mother's Day. It measures body fat, body hydration, etc. However, I am thinking of returning it because I can't seem to get it to work.

I'm going to Vegas!
This is my first time flying on a plane, my first time going on a vacation, & my first time leaving the state & I'm 26 years old. So, what should I do? Should I just totally live it up & make up for it by working extra hard when I get back, or should I try to somewhat moderate myself while I'm there?

I need a little help with pedometer or HRM......
My husband bought me a pedometer for Mother's Day because it counts steps and calculates calories burned (the 2 things that I wanted). My question is: If it doesn't calculate your HR, how can it accuratly tell you how many calories you are burning??? I had my eye of the Polar F6 or Polar FT60. Any input would be greatly…

No matter which one I set it to MFP always sets to a calorie allowance that gives me a goal of .9 of a pound per week with a total weight loss of 4.5 pounds in 5 weeks.

Question about MFP recalculation after losing another 10 pou
I've lost over 20 pounds, so I've gotten a message from MFP asking if I'd like to reset my calorie goals twice now. I click yes every time, but MFP doesn't seem to be changing anything. Is this because I've got a lot to lose or something? Would it have changed if I had, let's say, only 40 pounds to lose instead of like…

Foodabuse?
Ever heard of Antabause, the medication that causes a severe reaction if you drink alcohol? Isn't there something like that out there for food addicts? How about other safeguards against snacking? Specifically nighttime sweets. A friend of mine takes her thyroid medicine in the evening and says it's best not to eat after…

My semester just ended, and now I go to do my clinical affiliation (basically an internship)…
