But the OP didn't say s/he said s/he HATES to cook. With that said I DO agree with your quote. OP: you're just going to have to suck it up and start cooking. If you like to throw something in the microwave, make a bunch of food on the weekend and package it up so you can nuke it during the week. Or get a crock pot, toss a…

I can't stand touching my own legs when they have even a little bit of stubble so no. Not a fan of hairy women.

Try putting different fruits in the water like pineapple, oranges, or even cucumber. I am not a fan of the "flavor" stuff that you can add to water. IMO it tastes fake and it's too sweet.

I think the "withdrawls" depends on how sensitive the person is to caffeine. I love my coffee. I drink a few cups a day. I can also NOT drink coffee or switch to decaf and have zero side effects. I don't drink soda or any other caffeinated beverages so I'm not getting the caffeine high elsewhere.

Ahhhh. I got you now.

The OP also stated that the list is ridiculous.

That's because they don't know how to do them correctly. And exercise done incorrectly is ineffective.

What's wrong with doing crunches and curls?

^^^ This right here. I bet if you cut the sugar out you'll have the same results although I am confused how you "lost weight" by switching to flavored teas. Flavored IMO means that it's loaded with sugar and other stuff.

I work a different muscle group every day and alternate legs and core. Example: Monday: chest/legs Tuesday: back/abs Wednesday: shoulders/legs Thursday: tri's/abs Friday: bi's/legs In the afternoon I do my DDP yoga and every other day I'll do 30-40 minutes of cardio.

Except the OP isn't juicing, she is blending.

OP isn't using a juicer, she is using a blender. Also she never said she was straining it. That was someone else.

I am trying to figure out where the "junk food" part comes in. Sandwiches aren't junk and maybe he piles the food with salt because it's bland to him. If he doesn't want to eat what you cook then he can make his own food.

Last I checked fruits and veggies contain fiber.

There is a huge difference between sharing success and losses and tips on how to get there and sharing trade secrets

No, but looking as though you take your own advice lends a bit of credibility. Would you go to a dentist who tells you how important oral hygiene is, that you have to brush and floss when they themselves have no teeth?

Just stating a fact. If you know so much then I'm not sure why you wouldn't spread your knowledge out to others. The one thing entrepreneurs love to talk about is their business and how they failed or succeeded. No fee required.

Which again, my point is that regardless of whether or not they failed they still know how to create a business and would still be more qualified to teach a course on it than someone who has never, ever, ever created any type of business in their life. I learned from people who have failed and I learned from those who have…

So again, why does putting my tomato in the fridge suddenly make it become not natural?

Trust me. I control several businesses and my husband has his own business so yeah. I too know a bit about what it takes. You're answer tells me you do not.

That was just an example for further explanation as to why it suddenly becomes unnatural if I put it in the fridge. Sheesh. :p

Still not getting how my tomato that I just picked from the garden some how changes to not being natural because I had to put it in the fridge.

So you're saying that the food that I grew and picked from my garden and then put in the refrigerator isn't natural? Interesting.

They still have a clue as to what running a business entails regardless. Devils advocate (and assuming you don't own a business): what do you know about it and what can you teach me?

Because whole grain pasta has a lower GI which, in turn, does not cause your insulin to spike as high as white pasta (and flour) would. White flour spikes your insulin higher than a candy bar.

There are male OB's out there. I had one and I left him because I didn't feel confident that he had my interests regarding my health at heart. I have no doubt my female one does. AND since it's a she, she can relate to -- and answer -- the questions I have.

I would much rather be taught by someone who did it and knows what they're talking about regardless of whether or not they ran it into the ground. There could be a myriad of reasons why businesses fail and said teacher who had a failed business might be able to let the students know what NOT to do. All business owners I…

So if you were to look around my house you'd think I was a house cleaner! LOL

Yup. Pretty much EVERYONE does it.

But if they're information is sound yet they're not taking the information that they know and doing something with it themselves why should I believe that what they're telling me works? If you were looking to quit drinking would you go to your friend who, while they may have "sound advice" drinks on a regular basis? No.…
