  • 1. go here: http://www.fitnessfrog.com/calculators/tdee-calculator.html and enter in your stats. Make sure you choose the correct fitness level. Take the number it gives you and multiply that by 0.85, that will be your calorie goal. Go into goals and hit change goals, and choose custom. Enter in your daily calorie goal.…
  • Don't worry about cleansing/detoxing. You get more benefit from eating the whole foods unless you want to up your intake of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients. Then do some juicing, but be very wary of adding too much fruit or sugary vegetables like beets and carrots. Go for lots of deep greens like kale, chard, mustard…
  • You really have to watch how you word stuff, it'll become a crazy battle ground in no time and you will get punished for asking this real quick lol. For me, I make my own foods that would be horrible to eat out, and it makes a huge difference to me. I make homemade fries and burger. I can't do mystery meat any more. Plus…
  • I used to get migraines from dairy stuff too. I figured out it was the sugar. I first cut milk, then added sugars. I do very small amounts of cheese. I started using Asiago because it has a good strong flavor and you can use only 7 grams to flavor something quite well. I use other products still like local honey. I just…
  • This is a great site to kind of double check http://nutritiondata.self.com/ I always use the ones that go - Fish, salmon, atlantic raw, or cooked dry heat if you broil it.
  • Man, I really love everything, but the one that surprised me that I love is my Omega juicer. I really didn't think I would like juicing as much as I do.
  • I love mine, I have the One, and have even replaced it because I dried one of em. I love it because I am into being able to track everything. I love all the graphs and features. It syncs flawlessly for me. I have also used the motorola motoactv. I love its size and features, but the algorithms it used to calculate calorie…
  • True, I just hate when people think the nutritional profile is remotely the same
  • The body requires more to function than just calories. There are things found in a banana in greater quantity than a doughnut like, vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients.
  • Aspartame, anything hydrogenated, potassium bromate/bromide and potassium benzoate, anything in a non bpa free can, anything in a jar with a bpa lined lid, sodium nitrates and nitrites that are not from celery salt, artificial vanilla, castoreum (beaver anal extract - look it up) and high frusctose corn syrup. Those are my…
  • I found for me I started eating a little bit of chocolate every night and it works for me. I usually make my own coconut chocolate truffles, but lately I do a half serving of Brookside chocolates. The three I have tried so far are raspberry with goji, acai blueberry, and pomegranite. I found it is best to really savor…
  • o.O
  • I do burgers with ground sirloin so its lean. I prefer whole grain so I go for Dave's Killer bread, use one slice of bacon and avocado. For cheese I use a little asiago. It has tons of flavor in just a 1/4 oz. I don't do burgers out because I don't know meat source or quality. It's a tasty burger for 400-500 calories.
  • Tae bo is on netflix and maybe youtube. It is really fun. P90x is great because there are so many vids to choose from and they are kinda funny. A little spendy but worth it for the whole set.
  • I weigh in the mornings and at night just to watch how I fluctuate. But for progress I only check in with one weight on Sundays. Pick whatever day works good for you and log it once a week. Also get a cloth measuring tape and track your waist, hips, chest and stuff too. Sometimes the scale wont move, but you are building…
  • I have had the ultra (discontinued) and now have the One. I really love it. I love it so much I wash and dried my first One model, and bought another. And now I am eyeing the Surge. I do use a polar HRM for lifting, and doing major workouts, but it is pretty accurate on hikes and stuff. I love everything you can track with…
  • I use kraft olive oil may, I think it has 35 calories a tbs. If you like Asian style salads I love to mix 1 TBS olive oil may, a 1/2 tbs roasted peanut oil, and a tsp of wasabi and spray with braggs or soy sauce. Its really good on a pretty decent sized salad.
  • Honestly for me its a matter of how I feel and what I want. I know when I first started trying to do more vegetarian meals I would cook up a huge stir fry of veggies and be starving in 20 minutes. Now I don't seem to do that anymore. I don't intentionally skip meat, just sometime don't feel like eating it, or I didn't thaw…
  • Take the 2434 and multiply by 0.8 = 1947. Start around there first. You should lose decently easy. And you could lose more than a lb a week, to 2lbs. See how your body does and adjust accordingly. The more you lose weight, the more you will want to taper down your calories. If you start at 1200 you will stop losing at some…
  • Yes tom can add a lot of weight. 3-5lbs if not more sometimes. I can always tell when I am getting close because it'll start creeping up. Don't despair, and don't give up, It'll go back down after, just sucks because it seems like your not making progress for a week.
  • It used to be an exercise you could log. I didn't know they got rid of it. There is also couples yoga. Check it out on pinterest. Pretty steamy stuff.
  • Cute dress, you look great. You got a cute little lifted booty. You wearing spanx or do ya squat?
  • Oh, idk....you're a 49er girl haha, I am SD this could be a problem ;) What game is your pic from? I would actually love a football friend, on here. I eat 1500-1900 average. I do 80/20 and whole foods with a little sweets n treats. Open diary and love to cook.
  • Congratz. I quit after 15+ years and after a while your hair and skin just feel incredible. It take a while but is really noticeable. Keep up the good work.
  • I am curious if you can eat Quorn Products? It is a mycoprotein. They make a chicken nugget substitute that is really good. Can you have fungi? It is kind of hard to know what recipes to start with. Did you do the Alcat, Elisa, IgE/Iga4? If you want message me a decent list of what you can have and what you like and I'll…
  • I wonder if it has to do with the amount of calories in the rice hull? and it probably has more starch due to not being washed off like white rice? This is pure speculation, I really don't know. Have you tried the info at http://nutritiondata.self.com/ They give very good breakdowns on food. Sometimes you have to really…
  • I would suggest eating whole grain carbs. Quinoa, millet, whole wheat, oats. Have them in the morning for breakfast and see how you feel through out the day. That way you have a better chance of blood sugar being stable all day. Also try and either take some supplements and eat a good amount of veggies.
  • I weighed myself multiple times a day. I use to chart it out with an am and pm weight, what my calorie intake was and my fitbit burn. I tracked it for 6 months and found my sweet spot of calorie goals. Best thing is to pick one day a week to be your progress weight. I always do my measurements on Sundays.
