All I do is carb cycling right now. I don't necessarily believe in dieting. I want to be healthy and just have it be the way I live my life. But I'm finding that carb cycling is actually really cool. You still get to eat a lot of stuff you like but are challenged to find different foods to eat too.

vk2q7 - I cook separate meals basically everyday for me and my fiancé. It's kind of a pain and creates way more dishes lol but I'm slowly introducing healthier things to him that we both like and running with it. For instance, I found these high protein, low carb wraps. Say I make chicken for dinner, all that's different…

I had a salad at a restaurant once that was chicken, egg, cucumber, green bell peppers, mushrooms, tomatoes, and celery.

I've frozen a few bananas before too and added some peanut butter and blended it up. It's like ice cream. Lately I've been getting some non-fat Greek yogurt and adding chocolate protein powder to it and freezing it for maybe 30-45 minutes so it has more texture to it. I also just added a Honeydew Sherbet recipe on my page.…

On my high carb days I scramble up some egg whites, add some pepper and other spices, and put it on a whole grain bagel with some cheese on top. Super filling and great after a heavy lifting day at the gym

Hi. I agree with SueSueDio. It's ok to have a binge day. As long as it's not everyday, I think you'll still be on track in reaching your goals. I also agree that your goal may be a little aggressive. 1200 calories a day is truly not a lot and if you are doing 60 minutes of cardio a day, then you are getting even fewer…

Hello. Thank you for sharing your story. I always appreciate people that can open up like that, especially when it's about something personal. Although I am not in the exact same boat as you by losing weight, I am working on transforming my body into a more lean and fit figure. I am also getting married next year, so I…

Hello. Are you new to myfitnesspal?

Chamomile Herbal Tea after a meal is supposed to help bloating. Maybe make a cup after dinner and add a little bit of stevia or honey for taste.

It really depends if you want to go by the recommended dose or if you are trying to lose weight or gain muscle. Protein is 4 calories / gram. So... Say you're at a caloric intake of 2000/day and want say 35% of your calories to come from protein. 2000 x .35 = 700 calories. Divide that by 4 and you get 175g of protein per…

I did a Dandelion Root Tea Detox before that I thought worked well. It's one tea bag, 1 Tbsp cranberry juice (sugar free), 1 lemon (just the juice). You need 8 cups of water and are to drink it every day for 7 days. So that's 8 cups/day. I feel like I'm not explaining it well, so if you want me to go more in depth I can :)…

If you want to stick with kettle elk exercises, check out Jillian Michaels. She has a dvd that is all with a kettle bell. If you want to stay at the gym though and work on strength, you can do 3 sets of 10-15 of the following with a kettle bell - sumo squats - oblique crunches - Single arm press - Sits ups with extension -…

You can do it! Meal prepping is something I just recently started getting into. If you ever need some helpful tips/recipes, I'd be happy to share!
