i understand what you are saying.I do have the same goal. I am here to loose weight and be fit. So I am in the right place. I want to learn and be educated. I use to know so much about nutrition years ago. I am trying to get it back and make good choices in my everyday life. Not just cut calories every other week (what I…

Obviously my knowledge of this topic is inferior; so if you could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. Where should I find the studies you read?

You brand Vodka to the topic 0 I like it :) lol jk :drinker:

This where I was hoping this topic lead but I failed :ohwell: I was trying to get ingredients that are red flagged by nutritionists. I heard to avoid anything added that ends in "ose", MSG, etc. If it has raw mango I understand that sugar I was filtering "added sugar".

Exhibit A I was asking a question because I was not educated on the matter. I was giving examples.

:drinker:

You couldn't have said it better. What i said was below the belt. That said I just started using this site again and almost every post I have had responses that are pretty jerkish! This is a site for people to support, help ,and motivate you. Becuase i mentioned weight I am the jerk but responses like "go sit in a corner"…

:flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: :flowerforyou: Thank you for the web site. I have been eating foods that have very little ingredients or ingredients that I know. I like where your head is at "trying to only consume ingredients I would use in my own cooking and baking".

Holy mother of baby jesus I meant to type Fructose, Sucrose, Dextrose not glucose. It was a mistake.

Thank you. You are the only person who was not condescending in your reply. To everyone else. Are you serious no bad ingredients? Really? You hear (at least I do) about hidden ingredients in food all the time. Please watch "starving for a change". They talk about how MSG is put in food for you to get addicted to it. Its…

The more the merrier!!

Thank you for the break down but I am not slow so please be respectful. We all come on here to chat and get information. Not to be treated like an idiot. If that was not your intention I am sorry but that is the way you came off.

I read that on webMD

Did you look at this site? http://www.healthaliciousness.com/nutritionfacts/nutrition-comparison.php?o=35192&t=19335&h=&s=100&e=100&r= The site compares them. It has 100X more vitmains and healthy qualities than sugar. It has more vitmins, calcium, iron, etc. So thats what I meant.

I AM!!!!! I started hardcore dieting Monday January 7th. I use to be so good at watching what I ate and worked out a lot more. I realisticlly need to loose about 15 pounds for my wedding. I am not bad but I am a little too thick for my petitte 5'1 frame. So the wedding really kicked in the motivation. My date is July 3rd…

Cucumber slices with lime and salt.

I posted something recently about getting off my adiction to splenda. So I was using sugar bc it was more natural. So I have heard people rave about Agave. I just bought it so I will try it for now but COCONUT sugar yummmmmmm!! That sounds fabulous! It is actually for my black tea w cream. I am starting to calorie count…

Thats awesome. i was just looking this up. So basically it is about the same calorie count but has sugar but it has health qualities.

Thank you guys for the advice. Personally I am not a sweets person. It is just how I like my coffee and tea. When I was younger I used a sickening amount of sugar in my coffee and tea. Since I am older now I know its bad to use that much. I will try other things. I liked Equal and Splenda but wont use that now and hated…

I have. I hate the after taste -_-

Lol woa killer "I have way more important things in life to fret over. Good luck!" - A lttle rude don't ya think?

Actually when I can not get to the gym. I will do an hour of random "On Demad" workouts.

I love that rule!!! Keep them coming. I have a rule like that for work. If I am not sick enough to work out then I am not sick enough to call off work. lol its weird but it has worked for me many times.

Thats an old pic :( I am 5'1 and hispanic and almost 30 so that may sound easy but its not. Also I understand 10lbs may sound like a joke but my body type and size, its thick. I am rocking a 134 at a 5'1. So its not like I am a size 0 asking for help.

I am getting married July 3, 2014. I made a deal with myself to diet starting January. So for right now I started logging my food in a notebook. For some reason I do so much better with that. So I have the habit going into my dieting plan. Which I have not done good with lol. Does anyone have tips for wedding…

I was told to ake it in the morning on an empty stomach.....?

What exactly is VO2?

Yes wait until it goes down

Personally I work out longer and harder at the gym. Living in Chicago I have to have a gym bc it gets too cold. It motivates me and gives me new ideas when I see what trainers do. Plus I have any machine or equipment at my expense. Also, germs dont bother me. We need germs for our immune system and they are everywhere. I…
