Well said. You mentioned that you do stretches, yoga, pilates, jump rope & squats. I can assume based on the other exercises you mentioned that you're not taking about squats with a barbell. None of your workouts are geared toward increasing muscle much, only toning & general strengthening. So if you don't strength train &…

I love a good craft beer. If I was in a position where I was getting too many carbs or overall calories from beer I would most likely choose quality over quantity. If I HAVE to choose between 1 Imperial Stout or 4 lagers, the stout would win almost every time. Of course I understand not everybody considers that a good…

This is definitely a preference thing. For me a single vertical line on the abs, or even all three can be very sexy. If you start to see horizontal breaks in the abdominals, that's when I start to find it less attractive. I have no idea at what body fat% that a full 6-pack is usually visible on a woman; but I would imagine…

I really do need to get some shelves for one side of that thing; it just looks sad like this. Or maybe I could just brew some more..that would fill a up some space. :happy:

I have wondered about this but have never had contacts to before. I'm certain it would be more convenient to be able to take on & off non-prescription sunglasses as needed on longer runs/rides. But my one point of concern is swimming. I SUCK at swimming, but I hope to eventually to a triathlon. Of course if your goggles…

So before last year I would not have considered myself even slightly a "runner". My fist 5K was 51 weeks ago. Having never been a runner I…

Thank you all for the helpful info so far. My daily stats have been all over the place since this is the first week I have been tracking my food on this new way of eating. so I'm just trying to get a better idea what kind of numbers I wanna shoot for. I am shooting to hit or go slightly over my calorie goal each day not…

I often have a glass of beer with dinner. I always go for quality over quantity. I will sip on a single bottle of a nice ale (prob 200cal avg) & enjoy it more than I would have a whole sixer of Bud Light. (110cal X 6 = 660!) I recommend whatever type of alcohol you like, don't search for the lowest calorie version. Find a…

As some have mentioned a vegan-style diet just means not eating animal products & doesn't guarantee you are eating healthier. High Fructose Corn Syrup & Bleached Wheat Flour obviously come from plants but are banes of the average American diet. Cutting out meat isn't bad; but be careful not to replace it with fillers or…
