Egg yolks have cholesterol, and some people, like me, don't like the taste of them. I boil eggs and eat just the whites.

I think you are more likely gaining muscle and retaining water.

I find them in the "natural" section of the frozen foods.

I love turkey

You probably need to eat a snack. It could also be withdrawl from sugar/caffiene/processed foods.

Unless you have diabetes, then you should watch your fruit intake. Yes it has sugar, but it's also good for you. No one ever got fat from eating fruit.

I have large calves and I love them. It's one of my best features. It means we are strong. I do have issues finding boots, but we are stuck with them. Might as well embrace it. I found boots at Avenue and Lane Bryant. The make the shafts bigger. (insert dirty joke here).

If you can get in a pool that will help.

I think it's fine. I do a Zumba class on Tuesday's at noon and then I go do a weight class the same evening.

You need at least 1200 just to breathe and live.

<--- shocked....

it's what you eat that helps you LOSE weight. 90% is diet. 10 % is exercise.

Left over Zuppa Toscano soup I made and a salad.

any cardio is great, so I say yes.

salad dressing of any kind mayo tofu cottage cheese yogurt

I would do a mix of things. Cardio melts fat so you can see your new muscles. And don't eat under your calories. If you are doing strength training make sure you eat enough protein and drink a lot of water to repair your muscles and fuel your body.

I get it at Sprouts. Organic Guatamalen. Sooooo good and has a chocolately undertone.

I eat a lot of protein each day as well. Some days over 100g, depends on my mood. I'm a carnivore and if I don't have meat with every meal I get cranky. :-)

Well I am overweight and I am a Zumba instructor. Would you not even try my class since I'm over weight? I kick people's butts in my class. I kick my own butt. Don't judge from outward appearances. Not everyone who teaches or trains is in perfect shape. Some of us have struggled our entire life with weight issues, but the…

Boil a bunch of eggs and use those on a few days. Precooked turkey sausage.

add some lemon or lime juice to it. It keeps it looking fresh.

I ate pretty clean last week until Friday. I had a cheat meal of BBQ brisket, mac and cheese and creamed corn. I was sick the rest of the day and had intestinal issues to say the least... go figure.

push ups, sit ups, squats, lunges, tabata workouts.

It sounds like your sciatic (sp) nerve. Have you been to a chiropractor? They really help move things off the nerves. Also icing it and taking some anti-inflamtories will help.

I had 3 boiled egg whites and two peices of whole wheat toast this morning. I also sometimes have a Special K flatbreat sandwich. Both quick and easy. IMO - breakfast is not a preference thing, it gets your body going in the morning.

Butter is better than using something artificial. Or put them on skewers and grill them with some garlic salt on them. One tsp of butter isn't too bad. Olive oil might be better since it's a good kind of fat. Or use Pam. I've done that as well.

Love the Subway salads! This week I've been pretty good about bringing my lunch. I grilled a few chicken breasts on Sunday and bring some of that with some frozen veggies and warm them up for lunch.

Olive Garden® Zuppa Toscana I lightened this up and sometimes put it in the crock pot. Makes: 6-8 servings INGREDIENTS • 16 oz ground chicken or turkey Italian sausage • 1½ tsp crushed red peppers • 1 large diced white onion • 2 tsp garlic • 6 cups FF chicken broth • 1/2 cup FF half and half • 3 large red potatoes • ¼ of a…
