My motivation is that I look at exercise and good nutrition the same way that I do in regards to brushing my teeth. Is it exciting to pull out my tooth brush and start brushing? No! Same for exercise. So what happens if I stop both? My teeth become gross and one day they will be rotted away. So I must brush my teeth (and…

My boss who is a fitness fanatic recommended to me Gold Standard 100 Whey. I haven't tried it yet, but he swears it's the best he's ever had and says it tastes good. He's been in the fitness industry a long time and tried many kinds. Anyway... it's next on my to buy list.

I just made up a cool recipe, well a modified one from my youth. I used to love cottage cheese on crackers with Lawry's seasoning salt on there. I don't really eat many crackers anymore because they are sucky trans fat heart attacks. So instead I mixed in almonds, trail mix, and a few cheerios. It tastes the same and has…

Here's another... Aimelee's overnight oat awesomeness... Overnight oats is equal parts nonfat greek yogurt (any flavor you like), rolled oats (not instant), and milk (skim, almond, soy, whatever). Some people add in ground flaxseed or chia seeds too. Mix it all together and divide up into containers and stick in the fridge…

I eat this every single night... 1 frozen banana 1 scoop protein powder 8 oz of low fat milk or unsweetened soy milk Blend it good... the result is like a milk shake. P.S. Keep them coming... 2 more to my list. Like I said... EASY and quick is what I'm looking for. 5 ingredients or less is perfect I hate cooking. :D

Here's one I just found... Black Bean Breakfast Bowl Ingredients 2 tablespoons olive oil 4 eggs, beaten 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed 1 avocado, peeled and sliced 1/4 cup salsa salt and ground black pepper to taste Directions Heat olive oil in a small pan over medium heat. Cook and stir eggs until eggs…

Are you doing any strength training? It's not just for guys and trust me you won't bulk up... it takes allot of time and effort for that to happen. Do this: http://hundredpushups.com/ -- and then also do cardio such as running in place, jumping jacks, etc. Do you have an iPhone? Search on "Workouts" in the iphone store and…

I saw a shirt the other day that said something like... "40 is the new 20".

It's simple.... eat more....but eat healthy. End of story.

I checked several sites and they all said that the minimum for an adult is 500mg.

Rest days are tough because you are so motivated and you want to keep going but these are the days when your muscles are repairing so it is essential to take a break. Workout hard 3 days a week (every other day), light the other 2 days, and on the last 2 days really take it easy and don't do anything except walk.

I've had mine for a month or so now. I am still trying to figure out all you can do with it by watching videos on line. I really wish they had a book about it.

Tom Petty - Runnin' Down a Dream --- is my power song.

I asked a fitness trainer in my gym at work this same question about what I can do at home (besides pushups, dips, etc). She recommended at TRX (which is in my work's gym as well). I started using it, and man is it awesome. Women and men both use it. It looks easy at first, but it's not. Check it out:…

Wow I'm so proud of you!

Only the natural peanut butter is healthy. You know, the kind where you gotta mix up the oil before you eat it. Otherwise, all the other stuff is loaded with preservatives that is pure garbage.

I once booked marked this site: http://www.acefitness.org/exerciselibrary/default.aspx -- lots of example moving picture gif files.

Walking is a great way to lose weight. Try to increase it more and more up to 10 thousand steps a day. That is my user name: 10kaday.. :)

Try increasing your calorie intake. I know it sounds contrary to what should happen, but it works. I've seen numerous people on this site increase their calorie count and they start to lose weight. I think you are in starvation mode (being under calories) so your body is keeping all the fat it can to survive. Once you eat…
