that is really helpful, I was wondering about that.

Thanks... I am doing eating experiments, with raw foods. Potatoes are also a cheap fuel source, but the stomach thing has me concerned. If you're eating it as a staple, not sure I will do that to start. Just wondering how crazy it sounds right now.

Thanks for the post: I hope people can over come the yuck factor, how sustainable is free range? Their are trade off, we have no interest in seeing chickens suffer, even a free range chicken will have their life cut short because we kill them in their prime. A chicken without a mind has no life to loss. Right? Now vegans…

I understand the exercises calorie debate, however, I find one flaw and that is in the fat burning mode of exercises. Some of the calories used during a workout came directly from fat, more then would have come from fat from a normal activity level. I don't have any numbers, but I think this can explain a lot of the mixed…

1 lb is basically nothing, That is' two cups of water. You hydration level matters and you likely gain some water as a part of repairing your cells in your body. Good luck, stay the course your body should reflect your work ethic eventually.

Truth be told, I break my meals down by time. 7 to 10 am 11am to 1pm , , , 11 to 1am. Note: That 1:59am would still be 1am log time. But what ever you do track it the same way. But really it dose not matter, it the end it is simply for you to keep track.

Keeping track is the name of the game. And if you have fun with it all the better, learn all that you can keep track of and track it. By you tracking it others can help you latter on. Yesterday I ate a back of chips in front of the TV, OK a 1/4 of a back. I did it I recorded it, putting myself 500 calories over my limit…

I was looking over a wiki article, just wounder if their something that fits the bill. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bloating I would look it over to see if something fits. Their are a lot of possibilitys.

That is Great Progress, going form 530 to 420, it all about taking it off, don't worries about ideal numbers yet. Your focuses should be about going in the right direction. Set you 12 month goal and shoot for it. Realistically it will take you more then a year to take off what you have put on. I really hope you stick with…

oh well, Don't beat yourself up over going over your calorie limit but try to understand why. As for the extra colories you get for exercise, try not to use those for eating, those are your losings wight calories. Exercise when every you can, but your going to want to eat protein after your work out. It helps recovery and…

Spark: The Revolutionary New Science of Exercise and the Brain John J. Ratey (Author), Eric Hagerman (Contributor) A great book about the befits of cardio exercise.

It's about food mindfulness, not food hate. I love food, but that has not stomped me from being more careful about what I eat. It's better to eat food that is better for you, but if you keep the calories down you will still loss wight. I can't recommend aerobic activity enough, their are so many benefits , and it will help…

On the Moon or on earth?

I wanted to point this out because it's a cool fact about celery "The common misconception is that celery contains "negative calories". All foods contain calories. The way you must look at it is how many calories does one stalk of celery contain, versus how many calories it takes to digest it. According to the nutrition…

The problem is, everyone BMR [Basal metabolic rate] is a little different. The best way to determine how much you should eat is by eating until you stop losings wight. Every thing else is just a guess, this is always one reason keeping a close eye on your wight will help you better figure out how many Calorie you need. To…

1% to 1 1/2 % of your body wight is responsible, but without hitting the gym hard your asking for disappointment.. So at 178 that is [1.78 to 2.63] so if you have a body wight of 250lb [2.5lb to 3.75lb] as for the 1200 calorie rule it's a good idea. So that means you have to increase you calorie deficit with exercises. in…

and the objective is to get addicted... it even works for people who are trying to kick unhealthy additions so I have been told. Robert Downey Jr in fact says he uses intense work out to help him stay off of drugs. The benefits are many, but you literally become addicted too it, and your body will crave it. Runners…

Well good job on losing 14 lbs. You could have said join fitness pal and you can find out there? no! I agree many women feel this way, but your looking for justification for being rude then clearly you already have figured out that perhaps you were being rude. Their are nice ways of saying " I am sorry only share this with…
