Where did you find the workout watch was able to be set for purposeful exercise?

I started Keto mid-january and while I've had some set back days, I'm doing pretty well. I started with a net carb goal of 70 and did that for 2 weeks. I looked at my average carb intake, trying but not beating myself up since I was just really learning about it and I never hit 50 so I lowered my tracker to that. Now I'm…

I'm thinking that the literal 'half your weight' is not what was meant.

I do this regularly... I weigh 201.... I drink between 96 and 135 oz of water a day.

Yeah I'm good. I may have fallen for Garcinia but even to ME your product sounds like BS

I'll prob just finish up my 'stash' of them (2 for 1 on Groupon) and see how I do without them after that. I drink 1/2 my weight in water minimum... actually 3/4 of my weight on average. I used to walk 5-8 miles a day but now with the heat and humidity I use my portable elliptical while at work. I need to add crunches…

Well I don't have the distraction. I watch my food intake (minimal junk, stay around my 1400 calorie limit) and I do exercise. If I can't walk, I use my portable elliptical and I kayak/fish a few times a week.

during the week 2 egg whites with a splash of 2% milk (1 tsp tops) omlet. I rotate what i put in it. 1 oz of each (2 items tops) onion, pepper, broccoli etc. 1/2 oz of low moisture mozz shredded cheese (market basket usually) If I have no veggies at hand to add, I do scramble egg with 1 whole egg, 1 egg white and 1 tsp…

any recipe that you have that calls for spaghetti or rice, subsitute it with Spaghetti Squash! Makes a huge difference

Once again!! 16k they're gone

Mine stopped working too

What CyberTone described is what my husband does as he's too lazy to do the work himself LOL If we eat the same thing, he's all about snagging it by Copying the Meal

Often I make my own bread. I make it into dinner rolls measuring each to 1.5 oz of dough. Works well for a quick sandwich, and I can control what I eat. Smoothies are tricky, as everyone above says you have to watch out for sugar. When I used to do smoothies I'd do 4 or 5 chunks of frozen mango, 3 or 4 frozen strawberries,…

Made this for lunch this week. Used my dutch oven *just got it, LOVE IT* but u can do in a pot or crock pot Chicken and Rice "Stewp" (didn't thicken as much as a stew) 1 large, Onions, raw 1 large, zucchini, includes skin, raw 6 stalk large (11"-12" long), Celery, raw 2 cup, Grated Carrot Cut these to uniform size to help…

Thats the great thing about this dish, so versatile!! I thought about adding rice, but didn't want the added calories.

wont hurt trying to freeze it. Can also make it in cupcakes for help on portion control.

1/4 cup of LF cottage cheese with 1 tbsp piccalilli or pepper relish and eat it with Rice Crackers

love it... I dont have the patience to roll cabbage rolls. Thus this monstrosity haha

You can also do with diet sodas. I think its 8 oz for a cake mix diet coke or Diet root beer with a chocolate cake Sprite zero with a white cake diet gingerale with a spiced cake I did the chocolate and it comes out like a cross of a cake and a brownie.

1 box of angel food cake mix 1 12 oz can of crushed pineapple Mix and bake in a bunt pan per directions

I think I've had coffee twice in the last three months.. I drank it black with some rock sugar, but lately I'm on a tea (teavana) kick. I also water down my juice. I love orange juice but the sugar spike and calories are so unattractive to me. I do 1/4 of the cup of Orange Juice and the rest the Poland Springs flavored…

If I really want to get a glow, tequila shots, Tennessee Fire on the rocks or dirty martinis.

crushed and made into a crust...only way I eat them and thats rare. I use them to make Chocolate Lasagna for the holidays.

my work salad is usual;y Romaine or Spring Mix Cucumber cherry tomato snap peas cabbage bell pepper garbanzo beans sunflower seeds MINIMAL fresh bacon bits Dressing is 2/3 oz balsamic vinegar, 1/3 oz olive oil and 1 tsp of Good Season's Italian salad dressing mix My preferred salad which I make all the time in the summer…

A 2 lb gain over the holidays in my book is doing fantastic. Thats about what I gained back. Now that all the holidays are over (my work's party is always the week after NYE so my "holidays" ended yesteray) I'm now at 212. 13 lbs to go for my first big goal!!! Once I hit 199, my next goal will be 180. Walking 5 - 8 miles a…

Everything is going to be bite size. If it is consumed in a single bite, there is no calories :wink:

Bacon is bacon... wiping excess grease is not going to change the fat content by any substantial amount. :( Maybe decrease the amount of slices you have and sub it with something healthier.

I try to log everything I eat. Over Thanksgiving I ball parked the pickies I ate and overvalued most of it. I'll do the same with Christmas / New Years. I am good the rest of the time, so splurging on a holiday will not kill me. I also don't embrace the idea of a cheat day. I will splurge on a meal or snack ....or wine,…

I heard taking cinnamon capsules is supposed to help boost your metabolism but I have not seen any scientific proof of it (studies etc)

My husband does not eat healthy (veggies? Just potato, cucumber and corn tho he gave that one up). He just finds things that he likes and eats in moderation. He's lost 10 lbs so far in the last month or so. I google recipes for my lunches and think about how I can tweak them to be healthier. I've been doing a lot of lo…
