I don't like it hot. I find that it actually tastes better cold. You can also put a little honey in it (it doesn't take much) and that seems to take the nasty edge off!

Good old-fashioned abdominal crunches! javascript:add_smiley('wink','post_body')

Hi there, I just asked my nutritionist / fitness trainer this EXACT question today. She said that it ABSOLUTELY counts for burning calories and should be added to my exercise log. This goes for free weights, nautilus machines, etc. Hope this helps! Kelly :wink:

LOL!!! Thanks for posting! I don't know what it is about turning 40 that really put my butt in gear to lose this weight, but it was probably the best motivation I could have! I've been 40-50 pounds overweight since I had my two girls and have tried soooooo many diets. This is the only thing that has worked and is such a…

So I set a goal this year to lose 40 pounds by August 24th - when I turn 40. I started MFP on March 1st and have lost 11 pounds so far. I would love to hear from others trying to shed the unwanted weight before they turn 40 and it becomes even harder to lose it! :happy:

Good for you!! Keep up the good work!! javascript:add_smiley('flowerforyou','post_body')

Thanks for the info. I've been doing it for almost two years and have my green belt. I have a great instructor who is concerned for your safety and health above all. I wish I could jog, but I get a horrible pain in my ribs - ever since I was a little kid.

I know, huh? It's a great burner! Is that your little girl?

Is anyone else doing Tae-Kwon-Do as part of their exercise routine? I looked it up in the exercise database and it says that you burn 672 calories in 45 minutes. Just wondering how accurate this is. Thanks! :happy:

I do an egg with 1/2 slice of cheddar and one slice of thin-sliced honey ham on a whole wheat english muffin for 310 calories. Sometimes on the weekends I'll mix it up with one cup of Total and 1/2 cup of Silk Light Vanilla Soymilk for 173 calories. I will occasionally add 1/2 a 100 calorie pack of Craisins for an extra 50…

That was a fantastic post. It's a great reference when you hit a plateau or are just plain frustrated! Thank you!!

Thanks for the post Love_Conquers_All!!!:smile:

Thank you so much. Best of luck to you too!

Thank you! I just saw that cat with the rubik's cube recently in an e-mail and I think it's absolutely HILARIOUS!! Made me laugh again to see it in your post!

Hi all, I wasn't going to get involved with the message board due to lack of time. However, after sitting here for a half hour after children and sick husband went to bed, I found that there is much to be gained here. Everyone is very supportive and there is a ton of useful information. Thanks for all of your…
