Hello there:
Water is so important for many different functions of the body. A nutritionist once advised that everyone's daily water requirement depends on the body weight. So, we are supposed to take our current weight and divide that number by 2. (Example: 150 pounds divided by 2 equals 75. Take that number (75 in this example) and convert it to ounces. So an individual weighing 150 pounds should be drinking 75 ounces of water everyday. That number may increase based on your state's climate and your physical activity level.
Sounds daunting, I know, but I currently weigh 201.6 and I'm supposed to drink 101 ounces of water daily which is about 12.5 cups. That's a lot of water but at the same time I know I'm doing my body good. Just my two cents...

Wow. At my weight, I would need to drink 1 1/2 GALLONS of water a day. I don't think I can do that. LOL0 -
1. Meditate
2. Get enough sleep
3. Log my calories instead of guessing
4. Drink more water
5. Start eating the way I did when i first began this journey last year
6. More cardio and strength training
7. Add more green veggies to meals.
8. Cut down on carbs
9. Stay on MFP for motivation and support
It's time for me to get serious. Summer's almost here and I didn't reach my first goal. I feel like such a failure but it's my fault. I was doing so well, thought I could give myself some slack. Well, since January I can say I haven't lost anything. Just losing and gaining the same 5lbs. Pitiful. I will do this!0 -
For the people doing the Insanity challenge how do you like it? I have always wanted to try it but I cant afford to spend a lot of money on work out videos.0

If anyone has any questions about how I keep my carbs below 100, add me as a friend and check out my diary.
Mostly, I eat meat for every meal, I try to keep my protein above 100 grams a day, and I recently decided to up it to 120. I eat a lot of sunflower kernels, pumpkin seeds, chicken, cheese ( my fav is monterey jack because it has 7 grams of protein in 1 serving apposed to the 4 grams of protein that is in cheddar) I hardly ever eat bread, rice, pasta, or potatoes. I hardly ever eat cookies, cake, pie, or ice cream....unless its for a cheat. Most of the carbs I do eat are from the fruits and veggies I put in my juicer. Jucieng is a great way to get 4 servings of fruits and veggies every day. I recently hit a pleatu, so I began to eat whatever I wanted and not exercise for 5 days. Now, I am back already and have lost a pound.0 -
