I read an article recently that described how over-exercising actually leads to uncontrollable hunger, resulting in binging which completely offsets the calories burned. You might try reducing your running to just 30 minutes and see what happens. I have found short, intense exercises have worked for me. They seem to…

I use spaghetti squash in place of pasta all the time. Works great! Not a fan of cauliflower in place of rice or mashed potatoes, though. So, instead I just make sure that I use only a small amount of rice--generally 1/3 cup.

I love bodyrock.tv! It is difficult for most people to have time to burn 1000 calories everyday, so pay close attention to what you are eating. As a female, also expect some plateaus, then drops. I have lost 37 pounds, but it has come off very slowly. I have been carefully watching what I eat for over a year.

I have found a wonderful website called Bodyrock.tv which provides short, but intense and brutal, work-outs. These exercises incorporate weights, as well as use your own body's weight for resistance.

Although not a huge fa of the restaurant, Ruby Tuesday's now lists calories for specific items in their menu. Helps me stay on track when I do go there. Otherwise, dining out is generally high calories. Most restaurants use much butter and sugar to make it taste so great.

Haven't tried it, but it sounds good to me. I love horseradish mustard.

I'm near the coast of North Carolina. We have done everything we can do, but I didn't sleep well last night worrying about what may come. I am still hoping the storm pushes further east and spares us the worst of the wind damage.

I have been around the block a few times, so I am speaking wth years of experience as a foundation for what I am about to write. While I hate to add to your depression, I suspect your boyfriend is lying to you and that he likely came on to this girl. You just happened to "catch" him. I think you probably also recognize…

Welcome! Someone at work also recommended I use this site. My colleague has lost 11 pounds in just two weeks. I am near 60, but I am hoping I can lose 35 lbs. I tired of not being able to fit into any of my clothes! Tracking what I am eating seems to be working. Good luck to you.
