Egg Whites
I didn't realize that there were other who didn't know this, but you can buy a carton of egg whites in the egg/dairy section of your market. They are great because you can add most anything to them. I like to use random spice flavors that sound appealing and then healthy them up even more with vegetables. Yummy!!
What are your the weaknesses?
I know I can't be the only one that has food and exercise weaknesses. Personally mine are chowing down on buffalo wings, and avoiding push-ups. Please don't be afraid to share yours.
burnt calories
When you burn, let's say 400-500 calories from exercise, do you eat a little more through the day to make up for those calories? I normally don't and then this thing tells me that I may not be eating enough.
Take 2 mins off your pft miles
Found an interesting article that shows how you can improve your time on pt test. Check it out.
Remember to eat clean!
4 ingredient ice cream
Try this when you're craving something sweet! It was pretty good.
accuracy?
Not sure how accurate this thing is with how many calories you burn doing exercise. I would think that playing 90 minutes of ice hockey would burn more calories than remodeling a bathroom.
Motivation Help
What motivates you to eat healthier and exercise? When you find yourself getting off track, who or what is there to support you?
Snacks
DJ brought up a conversation last week and after thinking it over, I have realize that snacking is not a terrible thing. Does anyone know of any really good snacks? Consumer Reports 2013 - Good for you snack crackers
Does anyone use safflower oil?
I'm looking for a healthier alternative to vegetable oil that offers higher Polyunsaturated fats. Coconut Oil vs. Safflower Oil
