if you are hungry, that would be your body signalling it needs more fuel. 1200 is low for calories. eat more. personally, I eat as many vegetables a day, I try to restrict fruits because sometimes the sugars mess with me. :) but that's just me! find a vegetable you actually enjoy eating and stick with it!

how about you just order a pizza and eat til you feel full?

I listen to a lot of metal. Arch Enemy, Korpiklaani, Arkona, Kings of Asgaard. Nothing beats running to reallllly angry music. :wink:

That much sodium is very bad for your diet, it will raise your blood pressure and also throw off your electrolyte balance. Increasing your potassium will help get rid of the sodium but do so in moderation. Potassium is very important in your heart but too much of it can cause a problem. I would say don't worry about what…

I took my mom's dog to the vet for him to be put down... The vet is a family friend of ours. The conversation went something like this. Vet- "When I give him the, you know... the shot, you might want to stand back, I think demons might shoot out of this dog." *after he does it he hugs my mom and tells her he's with my dad…

this is like my muom. it's like she has radar that I'm trying to eat healthy so she makes the worst, gluten-y dishes in human history. "oh, you're trying to not eat gluten? how about some pasta with nice garlic bread??"

for salmon I do: honey and crushed pistachio soy sauce and brown sugar salt, pepper, lemon slices with foil to hold it together

I love spaghetti squash, I can eat an entire one and not feel badly about myself! I usually get a head of garlic and roast that on the grill or in the oven until it's cooked (maybe half an hour?) and then I mash a bunch up, mix with a bit of olive oil or peanut oil, and toss with the shreddings. then I add some salt and…

ons if dinner's included ;)

triceps and forearms!

I don't think that children should even count in these categories. :/ if she's active and is healthy (no diabetes, thyroid is good, etc), and she's a little over weight (and she isn't, so that's besides the point), then I really think it's irrelevant. in middle school, my ex-boyfriend was a super chubby kid that was made…

pfft please I'm an engineer darlin we thrive on sleepless nights ;)

also also, this isn't a powder, but I use textured vegetable protein to add more protein to my meals.

it's not a protein powder, but I really like shakeology. but for price, most people seem to like isopure. I have the cookies n cream one, and it's decent. a little too vanilla-y for me, but I like dark chocolate a lot. I usually order from allstarhealth, my friend LOVES the alpine and banana flavors...

zeraus > a couple one night stands :p

I agree with the modified push ups! I can do those all day, but if I try to do a regular push up I tip over or something. :/

I add a tiny bit of honey to mine. personally I don't think honey is as bad as processed table sugar. honey is made in nature and technically has a different chemical composition. not all sugars are made the same.

interestingly enough, any other night I wouldn't have looked twice at this thread. but tonight, here I am sitting on my couch watching tv. and a receipt, a single receipt, starts moving on my coffee table. there were other papers and things on the table, but only that moved. no open doors or windows, nothing. just this…

I would say measure yourself instead of weighing. I've been weight lifting for about two months now, and I actually still weigh the same, but I can fit into jeans and pants that I haven't been able to for years.

I agree with the above posts, this is something for a doctor to advise you on. You do need healthy nutrients right now, so eating healthy definitely can help, but I definitely don't think limiting calories would be a good idea right now.

oh yes. the package I got recommends you wash them and then microwave them, then pack dry with paper towels. kinda strange, but they really do taste like regular noodles (mine are curly like ramen?) and I mix them with veggies :)

I mean truthfully, it doesn't even sound like you know him or his family. if you've been together for a while, if you've met his family a few times, if you have been together through ONE Christmas, you would have been prepared for all this. how could you possibly not know what a JW entails if this is your FIANCE? not your…

why do you feel you have to be married at such a young age? just because you get married doesn't mean you'll be together forever. and just because some people never get married doesn't mean they don't love each other. I've been with my boyfriend for over two years now, and six months ago, I would've wanted to marry him.…

tilapia is a very thin fish so it doesn't have as long a cook time as salmon. hence, it cooks a lot faster than 15 minutes. I usually sprinkle mine with parm cheese and lemon juice, and bake for 5-8 minutes in a 350F oven. you can also pan fry it, I dust it lightly with flour and put it on a medium-heated, non-stick…

I second going for a walk if you can bear it, if not, I also like the food coma plan/workout in the morning plan :) indulgence once in a while never hurts!

sensa is maltodextrin and a flavor used to "trick" your other senses. so basically, it's soda sweetner. exactly what I want to sprinkle on my food! :D

black coffee here. I drink donut house cinnamon roll and chocolate donut for extra zing :) you could always add cinnamon and skim milk though, I bet that could be good...

I would not eat if I didn't have one of these! I love mine!

I need to have something when I get up, or else I'm foggy for the rest of the day. my time getting up depends on what shift I do at work though, so it might not be considered "breakfast". :wink:

looks like a line there to me, but check the expiration date on the box. sometimes if the tests are expired they go wonky.
