The formula has changed bc it doesnt contain ephedra anymore which has been banned due to side effects. anyway, I took it all day today and didnt feel any different. I didnt feel jittery but I also didnt feel more awake or less hungry. since I bought the bottle I'll finish it give my opinion then. Thanks for the replies…

So I know it comes down to diet and exercise but I know that some of you are taking a supplement of some sort either for energy or as a weight loss aid. So if you've taken metabolife what do you think of it? I was hoping it could give me some more energy, (I'm not expecting astounding weight loss results bc of it) bc I…

spinning rocks! but I would love it better with a gel seat. never heard of those! I must look into them:)

Giselle or Jessica Alba is hot but I'd want to still be 5'9"

actually the plan on weight watchers that allowed you to "bank" points was from 2002. each year as new studies are done they create a new better plan. Banking was on the 1-2-3 plan many years ago. currently they are doing the "momentum" plan which focuses on eating things that are more filling like whole grain pastas and…

my "meals" and "snacks" have the same calories normally. between 250-300cals. so I'll have steel cut oats with light soy milk, almonds and strawberries mixed together for breakfast, then whole wheat pita with hummus, yogurt and strawberries for snack. lunches lately are amy's or ethnic gourmet indian foods, as long as they…

if you have a stationary bike or gym membership start this 12 week cycling program with me!! Monday-30 10’ warm up and then 10x30” at 100 rpms with 1’ recovery between sets. Cool down for 5' after the last rep. Tuesday-30 30’ easy spin, keep the effort conversational and the cadence between 85-92 RPMS. Wednesday-48 15’…

I have the polar F6 but I hear the polar F4 is just as good. the F6 can be used in the pool and at the gym and not get inference from the other machines measuring heart rate.

I make mine the night before. 20 minutes on the stove-low low heat. 2 cups is 8 servings. I use my food scale to measure 6 ounces which usually ends up being 1/8 of the total (140calories) and then add 1/2 cup light soy milk, 0.5 ounces sliced almonds, 1/2 cup strawberries and some truvia sweetener. it's about 280 calories…

Month 1 - WEEK 1 Monday-30min 10’ warm up and then 10x30” at 100 rpms with 1’ recovery between sets. Cool down for 5' after the last rep. Tuesday-30 30’ easy spin, keep the effort conversational and the cadence between 85-92 RPMS. Wednesday-48 15’ warm up. Then 4x4’ at 55-65 RPMS. Recovery is 3’ easy spinning between sets.…

I found various info on breakfast skillets from other restaurants ranging from 850-970 calories. I would go with the high end and of course add extra for biscuits and oj etc bc that isnt included.

I completed the cough 2 5k program last year and unfortunately have an achilles issue now so I cant run but Ive become addicted to spinning so I'm going to try this "couch to" program for beginning cyclists. It's a 12 week program instead of 9 like the running. check it out! I start on monday. If anyone wants to start with…

Just to avoid confusion- I'm not sure where you got the info on weight watchers but Ive never heard of that and I was on WW for a year. Last year they had something called "flex points" which was 35 points you were allotted each week to use however you wanted such as divided evenly over the week to add on to your daily…

that is so awesome! i'm still trying to see 199! you'll be there before me:) keep up the good work.

What to do? I'm thinking I will just start to save some extra calories for after working out since I know I will want to eat a lot but does anyone else have this problem and what do you do about it? This week I have done 60 minutes of cardio every evening and then come home and overeat:( HELP!

also... is this something you can see yourself doing for the rest of your life? it seems a little rigid and lacking major nutritional components. i have a friend who is a professional body builder and when she competes her diet looks a little something like this but to keep her slim everyday figure she follows a more…

thats an amazing difference! keep truckin lady:)

I'm a vet tech here's what I agree with from above.. 1)do not feed cat food, even though it may be a one time thing, dont do it. very bad for dogs. i'd go with the chicken and rice(white or brown), even lean white lunch meats are fine. 2)dont use peroxide, it inhibits healing. use a mild hand soap. neosporin is fine, leave…

I worked at starbucks in college. if you got the iced coffee with a splash of skim milk and no sweetener (they add syrup like basically sugar water) then the only cals would be from the milk. on the website an "iced coffee" comes with the classic sweetener so thats why it says 90cals. You can order an iced americano from…

I wouldnt let a HRM tell me that I was or wasnt fit. If you are eating healthy and exercising it sounds to me like youre doing great. I have a polar HRM and I trust it's reading for calories burned but I would trust my Doctor more when it come to hearing about my heart health.

I completed the program last year around this time and it actually worked. I lost 22 pounds in the process. I never had to repeat a week but i also listened to my body and didnt "run" I jogged bc thats what felt right. I think sometimes people focus on speed versus time. At the end of the 9 weeks I wasnt going 5k but I…

ugh I didnt like the shiritake noodles at all. I rinsed them numerous times and just couldnt get the fish taste out, texture was also weird. ive just given up on "free" noodles and eat real ones very rarely

this is hilarious bc the SAME thing happened to me, even made the tortilla dogs:) the noodles are weird huh?? I rinsed them like 10 times but still couldnt get past the fishy flavor and slippery texture.

I also have the pink polar F6 and it was like $110 BUT they have the F4 also which is less expensive. love it! I hear many regrets about HRM's but mainly bc they wish they had purchased the polar the first time around.

hey welcome! where in texas are you? I'm in austin:)

I think flavored water counts as long as it is unsweetened, calorie free. dasani has new flavored waters with zero anything. now powerades, and things like that dont count, same with juices, broth etc.I tend to drink about 72 ounces of plain water and then another 24 ounces of tea and/or flavored waters.

I wish I was as strong as you. and I dont have a child. good for you!

Yeah I didn't agree. If you're using it properly and not bouncing all around like some people I see then it works great. My trainer told me to pretend there is a board above my head and not to hit it. it's really hard to pretty much move your legs like you're on a bike and keep your head from bopping up and down too much.…

hmmm I also disagree with stopping the elliptical. I mean I can run and watch TV, does that mean running isnt effective either? anywyay, I do agree with the working out with BFF. We do talk to much and end up stopping early. I like working out alone.
