Sometimes getting too much sleep makes you more tired. Maybe you are getting too much sleep. Just a thought though. Like suggested, see a doctor for a real diagnosis.

We just bought a scale by Homedics. I don't think it does anything with body fat, but it has a progress tracker. It remembers the last weight you were and shows total pounds lost and % of total weight loss. It also has a 4 user memory. We only have had it for a couple of days, but so far so good.

4 oz chicken breast

I made it over the hump. I have now lost more weight than I have weight to go. It is nice to see those numbers reversed.

Congratulations! I know the feeling, I hit my halfway point today too. It feels great! Keep it up.

MFP has helped me by giving me a free tool to log in all my food, making me accountable for what I eat and how much I eat. There is a pretty extensive food database, but you need to be careful because some of the items are entered by members, so double check to see if the nutrition information is correct. The support is…

Then how do they call it a "no calorie" sweetner? Is it because it has less then 5 calories, or something like that?

Barbiecat- What kind of peanut butter do you use? Is it considered natural?

Here is what is in this salad: Thai Crunch Salad Shredded Napa cabbage, chilled-grilled chicken breast, julienne cucumbers, edamame, crispy wontons, peanuts, cilantro, julienne carrots, red cabbage and green onions tossed with a lime-cilantro dressing. Topped with crispy rice sticks and Thai peanut dressing.

Made this for lunch. It was delicious. I used Arnolds Select Sandwich Thins for my bread. They are delicious and one roll is 100 calories. I think to cut down on some sodium that it would good without the turkey too. Like a grilled cheese with avocado. Thanks for the recipe.

I ended up doing a short DVD today and burned about 150 calories. Tomorrow even though my workout day off I will do my regular workout and burn between 300-400 calories. Thanks for the suggestions.

I love Kraft Mac and Cheese. It is probably the main culprit as to why I am the weight I am. I make it for my son, but use the lower calorie and fat directions. It uses 1/4 cup of skim milk and 2 tsp of butter. It brings down the calorie count to 290 for a full cup. This way if I do want to have a little taste, I don't…

Glad you liked it. It is my favorite brand. I will have to look for the spicy kind, I haven't seen that one yet.

Here is a cole slaw recipe...but it is not vegan. Maybe you know how to substitute things to make it vegan. http://www.hungry-girl.com/chew/chewdetails.php?isid=1514 I have tried it and it was very good and I couldn't tell the difference.

Let me know how you like the Sabra brand.

Sabra is a brand name. I buy it at Target.

I eat 1400 calories on non-exercise days. On days I exercise, I try to eat at least 1/2 of my exercise calories.

So then on those days you don't eat all your calories?

I've made this a couple of times. Very delicious. I have to make it on nights my husband isn't home because he won't eat spinach.

We all have days like this. You don't need to exercise everyday. It is good for your body to rest anyway, and you obviously needed the rest. Tomorrow is a new day and after the rest from today, you should be ready to go. Keep it up!

For those of you that do SI6, I have a question. I did the SIU for a day or 2 and have been doing RIU for the last week. I started out burning about 250-270 calories doing RIU, but now that I have done it for a week I am only burning 219. I feel like I am putting in the same effort as before. There are parts that are still…

I would like to know too. I also wear two sports bras when I go running.

I made this for Fourth of July and it was really good. A healthy version of Cole Slaw. It didn't taste any different. http://www.hungry-girl.com/chew/chewdetails.php?isid=1514 www.hungry-girl.com has other recipes too.

I just made this and it was delicious. I used skim milk, reduced fat peanut butter, and also added a little International Coffee powder. Very good. Thanks for the recipe.

I have a Heart Rate Monitor that gives me calorie burned. It is the best thing I've purchased to help with my weight loss.

Thanks for the information. I got my SI6 last Thursday and started it on Friday. My legs hurt so bad today. Anyway, I did the Start Up video on Friday and Ramp it Up yesterday. With Ramp it Up, I only burned 250 calories, so I will have to do some other cardio. It is good to know in a couple of weeks when I get to Burn it…

I had planned to spluge today, but our BBQ got rained out. :grumble:

I have the same problem. I would appreciate any suggestions too.

I have a Heart Rate Monitor. I literally just ordered the program this morning. I should get it in about a week. I was just wondering approximately what others burn while doing it. Thanks.

Thanks
