  • When I get a chance to exercise (3-4 times a week), I always log my exercise calories burned. I rarely EAT all those calories back, I think of it as defeating the purpose. BUT, with that said, I also find myself MORE hungry on days that I work out.... Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

  • I have the same thing, a friend will call me and go on...and on....and on...and on. When I call her and I need someone to talk to 9 out of 10 times she's not home, BUT, then she never calls me back so I can VENT to her. Needless to say, we hardly ever talk to one another anymore, just not worth it to me... Created by…

  • Sugar in CANDY....is definately different than the sugar in fruit. It is a NATURAL sugar and opposed to something that has been processed. May I suggest that your friend get some sort of diabetic counseling from an MD. Maybe he can go to an Endrocronologist, they are specialist that could educate him on the process and…

  • If that makes you MORE determined to get to goal weight than I would agree with you. I've done that in the past and just wound up throwing the clothes in the good will box.

When I was younger I had "things" that I needed to deal with and didn't have too much ME time. Now I do, and don't knock KNITTING. I love that as well....

I've made a total transformation, between trying to exercise 3-5 times per week, etc. The ONLY thing I won't give up is half and half for my tea, everything else doesn't matter.

  • To me, any workout that you do, will be some sort of benefit. Even though you walked with your Mom and at a slower pace.... I see that better than sitting on the couch with a bag of chips, see what I mean. You were out walking, instead of SLOUCHING!!!! Good job :) Created by MyFitnessPal.com - Free Calorie Counter

  • If your HRM is a decent one, why would you use both the HRM and the pedometer? If the pedometer is just to "count" steps, why would it tell you how many calories you burn? I would go with the HRM and leave the pedometer at home next time, especially ( or should I say) ONLY if you have the one that comes with the chest…

  • I usually walk on a treadmill for my cardio as well. My incline generally goes up to 8.0 with a speed of 3.3 to 3.8 mph. Onthe tradmill that I go on, you can set it for "Rolling Hills".
