if i eat as soon as i get up i am hungry all day long. it's something i rarely do. when i saw an article titled "why you are hungry all day if you eat breakfast" i had to read it. it talked about sugar spikes and drops etc. etc. it made a lot of sense. i feel a lot better since i started fasting between 6pm and 11am. it's…

sounds really good... gotta try this thanks

i like sweets and i'm going to eat sweets. pie, cheesecake, fudge, reeses cup. but having something sweet is part of my plan and i like that part. i also like that i am eating healhtier than i ever have before. i am adding fresh healthy foods and cutting out processed foods. i am also a fast fiver. i eat during a five hour…

my advice is you get a good drag and that helps. some ecigs are better than others. i liked the 501 (first had the 901 which wasn't so great). make sure your atomizer is good when it is getting old it stops working get a new one. if you have a good charge on your battery, a good atomizer and plenty of juice you get a good…

i boil a chicken breast and let it cool. then shred it and put in fridge. while that is cooking i make a cup of instant rice ( 1 cup of water, boil, add 1 cup of rice and turn off heat and let it sit 5 mins). i put that in fridge. then when dinner time comes i take the rice, chicken, 1 egg, low sodium soy sauce and a…

i have been thinking about making my own tortillas but haven't tried yet. as much as i love cooking, i have arthritis in my spine and can't stand very long. that's why i try to find quick and easy recipes! i can make fried rice in 5 mins or less lol. it's super delish and much healthier than chinese take out.

i wanted to quit for my health and hate the cost. but i didn't want to quit. i failed at everything til one day the cable man came by and said he and his wife bought the electric cig. so i thought great idea, i can quit and still "smoke". i started with the high nicotine juice and puffed all day. then i started using…

way to go!!

looks good, sounds good, i love the lower cals and carbs and fats... looking forward to trying them

yes i do count sugar as "healthy". sugar is not bad / eating too much sugar is bad. after all the reading i've done on processed foods and how our foods are handled i am trying to eat real food as much as possible. i am not a fanatic and will eat some of the "bad" food once in a while but overall my rule is: real sugar…

i did a lot of research on the B vitamins and decided on the B complex liquid. i read both opinions on which is easier to digest, liquid or pill and decided i agree that liquid is better since the pill has to be broken down before being absorbed. just my opinion tho. i like the B complex because the benefits are: Support…

Elevated cholesterol levels aren't caused by a high-cholesterol diet alone. The fact is, a combination of factors affect your cholesterol levels. They are affected by things you can't control such as age, gender, family history and race. They are also affected by things you can control such as diet, exercise, and smoking.…

i have a lot of back pain and knee pain (mostly due to arthritis and fibro combination). i can't do anything on my knees and have difficulty getting up and down. i love swimming and water aerobics but don't get to do them often. so i try to make do with stand up exercises until my back hurts too much and i have to stop.

i started fast five and the idea that you can eat whatever you want made me stupid. i ate burgers fries pizza desserts... and i quit. well, i read the book and joined support groups and i truly believe in fast five. i'm single so i can eat whenever and whatever i want and i think that really makes it easy. so six months…

www.eatbetteramerica.com takes recipes and healthifies them... they have a healthified strawberries and cream pie that taste great and low in fat and calories. thats just one...

i want to eat as little processed food as possible and if you read the ingredients on mayo you would pass. make your own and it contains olive oil, egg, and you can add fresh herbs, lemon, etc for diff flavors. i checked the ingred on the mayo with olive oil and it still has chemicals. so do you go as clean as possible or…

i agree that it tastes great but that might be all the sugar they put in those V8 fusions! read the labels... well, the ingredients anyhow. the things on the label that catch your eye are marketing tools to make you think you are buying healthy stuff when in reality it may not be. fat free usually means lots of sugar and…
