Stevia is really strong so you only need a very, very small amount, like 1/8 of a teaspoon (keep this in mind when you buy it bc it can be quite pricey). It tastes just like regular sugar to me, but I've heard some people say it has a licorice-flavoured aftertaste. It doesn't spike your blood sugar like sugar or artificial…

I hear you!! I have been falling back on diet pop to fill me up lately too & need to lay off it. I know you said you want to cut it out to drink more water, but I have a replacement (healthier alternative to pop?) to share if you're interested in trying something different.

I find it a lot easier to work out in the morning because then I can spend the rest of the day knowing that it's DONE! I personally think that 700-1500 calorie burn in a day is a little excessive, but I do think that you…

So the sweet boots I ordered online came in the mail yesterday. I knew they wouldn't fit over my calves, I mean, who CAN actually get these things zipped up? So this is one of my goals for Christmas since it’s always good to measure by how things fit as well as by pounds lost. They are too small by 2.5 inches (photo is on…

So since you are all on this forum, you probably know about this, but I'll share anyhow. If you go on the Atkins website, you can register for a free starter kit with three Atkins bars and a pocket-sized carb counter (book). http://cauk.atkins.com/registration/ I just received mine in the mail a few days ago and I had…

Hi! My name is Julie and I would LOVE to join this challenge! I am 35 and have two children, 8 and 2 months, and am trying to get in shape after baby. I joined MFP a few years ago but have been having trouble staying consistent. Maybe a little "community" involvement is what I need to reach my goal. I am at 176 right now…
