Oh no chemicals!!! Evil evil chemicals!!!

It really depends on the time I have. But I like to hit the treadmill at least twice per day. I can always find 16 minutes to get in 2000 steps.

No way. This is unsafe and this thread will get locked.

Me. Walking is the only activity I like to do every day. I did some bicycling but I ended up with a sore back so I mostly stopped except for some very short rides. My goal is 10,000 steps per day. I walk exactly 4mph, 125 steps per minute. So it takes about 80 minutes but I break it up into groups of 2-4000 throughout the…

Around here that’s called “one-derland”. Congrats, it’s a great milestone!

It’s a check mark. It means the entry has been verified to be correct. (But I don’t know who or how it was verified)

I like using a treadmill. I can use the incline feature and I can use it regardless of the weather. I do at least 10,000 steps per day.

What do you mean by “healthy”?

One thing I like about Quest bars is they are *not* chocolate coated. That makes them great for throwing them into your backpack or pocket and they won’t melt. (I think a few new flavors of Quest have a coating of some kind.) Chocolate brownie, double chocolate chunk, mint chocolate chunk are my favorite flavors.

Stop telling yourself you have a “sweet tooth”. There is no such thing. It’s a colloquialism not recognized by science. If you like sweets you’re no different than 99% of people on earth. Try going 1 day, then 2 without sweets. You *can* do it and you’ll be just fine.

Appetizer is the new entree. As always you have to be careful there too. Many appetizers can have more calories than an entree. But usually they’re smaller, cheaper, and are just one item.

Snack and exercise ideas? Do you not know what snacks or exercises are?

Excellent advice! Let other people think whatever they want to think.

There’s no excuse for not logging your food/calories. Once you get your usual foods logged, it takes very little time to log. Just seconds per day. Once you have an accurate diary you’ll see where the problem lies.

Ideas for snacks? Any item in the grocery store can be a snack. Is it that much of a mystery?

Because those people are trying to sell you something.

I think the cause is your in-laws.

For some reason that pickup line never works for me.

I work in a large, 10 story building. I like to walk the halls reading documents and looking very busy when in fact I’m just getting my steps in.

Use spices instead of sauces.

This whole discussion reminds me of a great line from the tv show The Good Place: “You humans have a knack for taking something great and ruining it a little so you can have more of it”

Any food with the word “enlightened” in the name is probably trash.

What do you mean by “under”?

My breakfast + lunch is around half my calories for the day. Dinner is the other half. But this is fine with me. I’m not ravenously hungry during the day and I can have a nice dinner.

Such ludicrous fasting discussion is a quick way to get a thread locked.
