  • hmmm you might be right about the choice of brekkies. I normally have an egg, but thought I would switch it up today...
  • daily is good. if something went up I can adjust the next day. But I officially record only once in a while.
  • oh really? are you in the US or the EU? cuz I know canadian store bought has never worked for me.... in the EU i am able to make it all the time.
  • shes 22, let her live it out!!!!! generally all hard liquor is pretty much the same. I think vodka is most low calorie. You shouldnt drink soda, sugar free or not. this is why i suggest soda water. stick to one type of booze. and LEARN HOW TO BALANCE!!!!
  • i have been there. I am still kinda there but am now a 33 year old party professional :) (my work requires a lot of networking, and outings, and staying up late) so here it goes. 1. vodka soda lime. all the time. You will get used to the bitter taste. the hangover is more mild also if you choose a better quality vodka.…
  • i dont use a crockpot i just have natural yogurt bacteria that my mom got somewhere. you boil 2% regular milk, let it cool to just a slight warmth, put it in a jar, add a spoonfull of old bacteria and you have yogurt the next day this does not work with commercial yogurt. you need to get proper natural yogurt or kefir…
  • why has no one mentioned the fact that they are FREAKIN HIDEOUS????? reebok ones are hot, but the whole rocker shoe thing is so ugly id rather cut off my feet and throw them in the garbage than wear them oh and i did have to test out the skechers, and they just gave me knee pain. FROM WALKING AROUND
  • if you run in them you will mess up your knees. these shoes were traditionally meant for ppl who needed comfort. WALKING ONLY
  • i totally posted a topic about this last week and got BLASTED by everyone who was like THIS IS A SITE FOR SUPPORT, STOP HATING. but honestly i think it is demoralizing to be taught by someone who's PROFESSION it is to be fit and in good shape and they are teaching a class they cannot actually physically do. if this person…
  • i am an athletic shoe designer. using these shoes to lose weight is the equivalent of saying 'if you wear these shoes and go on a diet you will lose weight' if you are going to give a company 150$ for shoes that cost about 20$ to make, how about you pay the ppl who actually invented this technology- MBT. sketchers stole…
  • you know, you totally dont need a MACHINE. you just need a live yogurt bacteria. and some milk. have been doing this for years.
  • WORST carbs are you friends. Just choose the right ones
  • I have recently done this, and it is amazing. I used to drink 4-5 times a week, and now drink 1-2 times per week and keep it low numbers -being designated driver always works -order fancy booze free drinks when out (like ginger lemonades, or fresh juices) drinking a treat w an umbrella makes you feel more festive than just…
  • ya definitely try to embrace your new healthy self on vaca. I like to let loose on vacation, but i still always bring my runners, do beach yoga, swim lots (even tho i suck at swimming) and rent kayaks, instead of getting drunk from 10 am and lying belly up all day. :) vacation should not leave you exhausted. it should…
  • i think sometimes one just has to stop and evaluate what is triggering the bad habits. please note that I have not cut out foods that are technically bad for me. on friday I had steak tartar and saturday a hamburger... but I ate only some of it... and not seven burgers followed by pie..... the rest of the week my diet is…
  • and just to add, it WAS ****ty workout. I have taken this same class with another teacher last week and it was absolutely amazing, and intense. this made me so angry i had to go run immediately after. I am not a complainer-im too nice and do worry about hurting people's feelings, in fact, things have to be REALLY BAD for…
  • I like the discussion this has raised. On one side, you have weight loss/fitness which is a field where you want to be supportive and accepting of everyone. On the other side you have customer service and getting what you pay for. For instance, if this was not in a sensitive setting (calling people fat is mean), but…
  • Dear SImply delish, as I mention in my post, i am supportive of all sizes of people. and love my slightly larger kickboxing instructor BC SHE KICKS *kitten* and is a really good instructor. this was all around bad, including her being larger without any muscle definition or stamina....
  • so, i did zumba today for the first time ever.... sooooo everyone DOES realize that zumba is just rebranded - glorified richard simmon's sweating to the oldies, but with a latin american soundtrack.... right?

  • i will also make a nice baby spinach + strawberries salad to go with it
  • as for recipe this is probably the closest to what I make (half the cheese, and you can avoid the white wine but i do find it makes a huge difference in the taste): http://katiscooking.blogspot.com/2010/04/butternut-squash-risotto-with-roasted_07.html nom nom nom
  • oo no! i make this risotto all the time Pumpkin works really well too!!! SO SO SOOOOOO creamy im a big cheese lover and find that this throws me off my diet... what I use to replace it is peanut sauce (lots of flavour, not as much fat) or lower fat / full flavour cheeses such as feta- you can use less and get enough taste…
  • im an athletic shoe designer and have a pretty good idea on how to select proper footwear :) but socks might be the issue here thanx everyone

  • sucking in also gives you better posture. and yes yoga is an amazing core strngthener
  • i cant really eat in the mornings either. well.... like not before 9:30-10am. then I only have either half a cup of yogurt or a hardboiled egg and some kinda milky beverage
  • one small tip- walk around all day sucking it in. :)
  • ok so it has been ten days since i joined my new gym. I have gone 7 times so far, switching it up in different (pretty high impact classes and weight training) and I do not know if I am crazy, but I seem to already see results? Is this possible? On an added sidenote, I have also cut back A LOT on drinking in the last 2…
  • nice progress!!!!
