  • People telling you to forget about counting carbs are wrong. First of all, we all process carbs different. Second, carbs from good sources (fruit, whole grains, etc) are fine. The more fiber the better. Processed breads and cereals aren't that great when trying to diet. Like someone said above "Nutrition is a very…
  • I don't skip the dressing at all. The key to a successful diet is to make sure it's not boring, in my opinion.

  • I hear you! I hate it as well. I always say I will do it and I don't. So, a couple of days ago I said enough is enough. I went on Facebook and told all of my friends that for each like I get on the post, I will walk a mile this month and I will provide proof. I post a screenshot of the MapMyWalk app when I finish walking.…

I like the smaller chocolates like that because I can suck on them and make them last longer. Better chocolates, like frufru organic and…
