sigh, i was always trying to ignore the sushi one..... really good post tho. ;)

'people like me'? this isn't judging. This is concern. Good for you for doing your thing the way that it is right for you. i wish you total success on your fitness journey. but in this case, this topic doesn't even concern you. I am not pointing fingers at anyone specific, simply giving some tough love and raising…

hahaha YES!!!

up with new Balance. They are my fave. Nike , as amazing as it is, does NOT make good performance running shoes.

ya let's see how happy she is when her hair starts falling out, and her nails keep breaking. :( musicgirl: i just thought about some other things. adding sundried tomatoes is a great kick of flavour. Avoid the oil ones, if you are watching fat, and just buy the dried. shopping a couple into a salad is delicious. also dont…

geezuss i love steak. and ya, all sumer my family eats red meat and a side of green vegetables (kale, broccoli rabe, dandelion greens etc) and all of us lose weight.

thank you :) some days are better than others obvs. 5kg= 11.0231131 lb, which IMO is more difficult to lose than having 15 kg to lose. :) musicgirl99: cheese is my weakness, and full fat cheeses SHOULD be avoided when you are trying to slim down. lower fat such as cottage, farmer or mozza are good tho, if your system…

trudypickles, hardly. I have 5 kilos to lose and have been slacking about my diet. The issue is not the junk, i dont really like it, it is more the partying and portion control. Turns out that eating a lot of healthy food stilll makes you gain weight. :) I have been yoyoing with weight for years and it is precisely bc i…

understood. budgets are what budgets are. buying bio is not necessary IMO. only for the really bad things such as spinach, strawberries. kwardklinck, ALDI or LIDL. all the way. you mean I can pay 99 cents for this pineapple instead of 1.99???? DONE

YES!!!! i find it amazing that candies advertise as fat free. hello, candies, they are sugar, which turns into fat. blargh.

ya i guess... and for some veggies you can probably get away with it. I tend to buy whatever is in season, which makes it cheaper. also, ethnik supermarkets all the way. :)

really? you find that buying canned things is cheaper than fresh? re with kids, I can't relate but i can imagine. you go for things that are more convenient. But remember that you are creating eating habits of your children as well.

like the above post. a lot.

as for nutrition... I still have some unhealthy habits. I am in a work/lifestyle position where I go out for meals a lot. I party and drink booze. there is always room for improvement. This is why I am here. :) one should ALWAYS think about ways to improve. and I have 5 kilos of improvement to do. variety is key. I made a…

the worst part about bingeing on cashews is that whenever I have done it i felt like i ate a stick of butter after. THE WORST.

you can only control what has not happened yet.

definitely yogurt is a good one. handful of almonds too. I often work out late in the evening, get home around 9,10 pm and dont really want to overload my digestive system so late, but still find myself to be hungry, I will have half a can of coconut water, which seems to work wonders. :)

aaand im done! its fun breaks up the mundaneness of working and i dare you not to laugh as you dance like no one is watching. :)

very but madly addictive can you stop at just 10? i cant. so I stay away from them hahahahha http://www.organiccashewnuts.com/cashewbenefits.htm really good tho!

a friend of mine who is on a gluten free diet made me gluten free pancakes from a bio mix and they were surprisingly delicious

beets are so underrated another really healthy thing to eat in the winter is sauerkraut. tons of vitamin C, really full of fibre, filling, yet 34 calories a cup.

the thing with vegetarians being healthier is not necessarily because they dont eat meat. Vegetarians are generally more health conscious. So it could be all the other stuff they consume that is the real advantage. :) The best comparison would be to have two people with the exact same diets one of whom occasionally eats…

agree w raw walads kinda sucking in the winter. I just feel cold all the time if I eat salads. So as alternative roasted anything i will roast a beet or a sweet potato or squash and have that as a meal, or a snack. Like with salad, careful what you put on it. personally i find these vegetables delicious enough on their own…

ya nuts are tricky . if trying to lose, staying away for peanuts is the best thing. eat small quantities of walnuts, hazelnuts, brazil nuts, almonds, preferable unroasted and DEFINITELY unsalted. :)

no. `i just go and stay in really ghetto places.

totally agreed :)

I don't know... I have gotten really sick there every time I have meat... It is the only place I tend to avoid it as much as possible. :)

30 days ??? seriously????? that is so great!!!! congrats

ok, grocery store far away, expensive veggies, not knowing any better. sure, there are always excuses. but, in the future spending lots of money on medical bills sure seems like a more pain in the *kitten* cost than paying $4 for lettuce. there are low cost alternatives for everything. dry beans are good for you and give…
