That's what I always thought..that it's better than cookies. I agree. I was wondering why people make sugar out to be the bad guy. There's no HFCS or aspartame in an apple. I thought the body needs a bit of (natural) sugar anyway? When I read people don't eat fruit for a diet I get sad for them, lol. Then I started hearing…

I love Fage greek yogurt. I buy the 0% fat, plain, then I add cinnamon to it and use it for dipping my apples.

I've never supported SGK and am very annoyed when boxes of food I want to buy are labeled with "buy this and your money goes to support SGK!". I read awhile back they use donated money to go after little charities that use "for the cure" in their name. Charities that are just trying to raise money for research are shut…

Okay. Glad I'm not the only one. Every time someone tells me their diet tells them to cut out fruit I'm just like...*blank face*...I thought fruit was healthy and necessary..at least that's what I learned in grade school.

I use a towel 5 or so times before washing it. I also wash my jeans MAYBE once a week. Awww snap, germaphobes.

I think it's messed up that college coaches make so much money but the football players are not paid. It's why I don't support or watch college football.

I love chips and salsa. I add salsa to breakfast burritos or eggs to help with the desire and nix the need for chips.

I'm an atheist because I have a brain. My family is Christian and so is my s/o.

Yep. That's definitely what I was attempting to say.

I partially agree but, at the same time I don't. I'll give an example. I don't take anyone seriously if they think abortion is wrong. It's not up for debate for me and I'm really not tolerant of anyone who feels that way. I start out being civil in the conversation but at the end of the day I usually end up calling them…

Taxing unhealthy food thinking it will curb obesity is like thinking taxing cigarettes has curbed smoking. I can understand the premise and get behind wanting people to live a healthier lifestyle - but let's target food production first, not consumers.

I paint my nails when I want to snack. I started a nail polish blog (with 40 followers now, yay!) for a variety of reasons. Mainly, I need to do a lot of swatching of colors so I can post every day. That's really time consuming. If I really am hungry though, even after water, I like carrots and hummus, or apples and non…

I usually don't. I might start weighing myself on Sundays, but I usually avoid the scale. I don't have a good scale so its accuracy is debatable.

I'm 5'3 and I want to be 125.

No one is too fat for yoga! Yoga is awesome. I hope you enjoy it. :)

I found some zumba videos online and tried doing them and felt so ridiculous, lol. I even took a few months of salsa/other latin dancing classes but zumba wasn't like any of that.

Good luck! My advice is to take it easy since you're just starting and set mini goals for yourself - something like, 'I want to be able to run a full mile by ___'. I used to run but I got terrible shin splints. I bought a semi-decent pair of running shoes and even then, I just can't do it. It's kind of a bummer, because I…

Wow, I had no idea so many people were paranoid about bare feet. Get over yourselves, bare feet are not as nasty as you're making them out to be. It's not like he dips his foot in pile of crap before headed to the gym. We encounter worse and nastier things by touching a doorknob, or, get this YOUR KEYBOARD.

I'm not trying to be rude but I've noticed a lot of people complaining about other people's calories burned..why? What's the point in that? How does it benefit you to complain? It'd be one thing if you were asking for information on how to burn 800 ca/hr but it just seems like you (and everyone else *****ing about this)…

I always see her DVDs at Walmart and I pass them up. I just looked her up on youtube and I like what she's doing. I might have to pick up a DVD for when it's too crummy to be outside.

I cook my eggs in the oven in a muffin tin and then put them in the fridge. Then I just have to reheat. I never feel like cooking in the morning so this is an easy way to get a nutritional breakfast early in the morning. I like to make low calorie "egg mcmuffins" minus the cheese. My cooked egg (perfect size from the…

I drink water and go for a walk. Shake it off and start new the next day.

I wasn't going to post in here because I didn't have anything to add but that comment had me DYING. That is hilarious. Thanks for the morning laugh, lol.

You look great, it doesn't matter how much you lost because you can tell a significant difference! The number doesn't matter :)

I'm such a glutton for punishment that I love that sore muscle feeling. I work to get it. Maybe that's not healthy.

I'm game. I've done 8 walking miles far. 77 miles left.

I hate anything that describes the results as "the fat has literally melted off".

I walk for at least 3 miles a day, 6 days a week and do pilates 6 days a week for 30 minutes. I don't have access to a gym.

I do both. I can't exercise on an empty stomach. I eat something light like a piece of fruit and then I have fage yogurt afterwards.
