Its a little confusing however there are days I forgot to add something likethe excersise. I go to my excersise, use the calender and go back a day, adding the excersise there. It will adjust what you did that day.

I just ordered from a health site, multiple vitamins.and trace liquid minerals. I remembered years back I took a good trace mineral and my joints did not hurt as bad. My next purchase is going to be a veggie/fruit supplment, as I feel no way can I eat all the fruits and veggies i need each day. Right now, I am going to do…

I log everything. LIke Chinese is supposed to be very high in calories, but I make the choice of eating steamed rice, veggies and whatever meat I choose. I take all sauces on the side and measure by the tablespoon. That way, I am getting what I like but in moderation and a healthier choice. I eat one egg roll, not two, or…

If you look on the ingredients it has a small amount of orange juice in it. That may account for the calories

since i have joint problems I love the eliptical. You can used it with no resistance for cardio then add resistance for the strength. I am on medium resistance, push with my arms . go backwards, pull with my arms and sometime twist my waist at the same time. Great workout

What I do when I am not sure is add all the ingredients seperatly and know about how much of each I will be eating. you can change the amounts ..like if the peas say 1/2 cup I would figure about how many peas are actually in it..if the calorie counter says lets say peas 1/2 cup I would at least divide that by 4 which would…

Two weeks in I was doing great. I had a stressful thing happen to me and became depressed and aggitated. It started with easter ham but then it went to the chocolate which i really didn't crave til I got these feelings. I gave in and ate .my mood lifted after that. I still logged every sinful bite and found after I had…

my biggest downfall is HAMMMM I Love a good ham. Not too salty just flavorful. My planned dinner is portion sized ham, making scalloped potatoes with skim milk instead of evaporated milk,green beans and 1 homemade roll. I bought homemade chocolate for my hubby, but oddly enough, I really am not desireing it. I did have…

at first it is hard to drink it, but I got off soda and am now a "Bottle Baby". My 1 quart bottle goes everywhere with me.One thing they say do not leave your bottles in the car as it changes the composition of the plastic and leaks carsengens (SP?) into your water. so it goes everywhere. I am constantly sipping out of it…

DOOOOONUTSSS> LOVE EM mostly glazed or maple/vanilla custard filled DOOOONUTSSS. My first week I had to have them I ate 2.Could have ate the whole dozen...Thanks to my parents (Now passed away) I could hear my dad say," thats enough you don't need any more, or a pig will only eat what you feed it" Then I imediately jumped…

Ya the muslce thing is their only reply cause they really don't know. With you on that one. Mine is hearing and reading all the controversies on what foods are better for you.LIke some say eat whole wheat bread and pasta, other say they contain too much sugar that is the real culprit of your weight gain to go to rice…

Ohhh Krispy cream donuts...any pastries yummm. I bow down to them about once a month and I KNOW i have to excerise that day for sure to burn some off. I relish every bite but log it and excerise. The high sugar content in these goodies can certainly add fat if you don't rid of it that day.I feel if we totally deny what we…

lets face it why do we drink? eases any body pain,socializing,a little relaxing buzz. Same with food it comforts our zone. I don't buy it at home but go out 2 days a week and social drink. i find if I have to pay more money out, I drink less. I always figure it in my calories that day as a snack. So far, its worked. I like…

THank you! Your advice was very inspiring to me right now...Good luck on the rest of your journey!!:heart:

I was adopted at 5 months old. I always have been big boned and I have always loved to eat. My adoptive parents were not health nuts, but they did tell me when I had ate more than I needed by telling me "Thats enough jelly, or no you can't have seconds" etc.. I walked everywhere, but still in teenage years was about 30…

my husband was raised in China Town in Chicago and does our stir fry veggies. He says the veggies aren't supposed to be totally tender. you need very little oil and have to keep moving stuff around. He used about 1 Tblsp coconut oil instead of heavy peanut oil.add fresh garlic, ginger . The wok needs to stay hot shake/stir…

buy the small lunch size bags if you have to have them. If you deprive yourself you will go hog wild on a bunch of em then feel guilty. Eat with them a stalk of celery for a filler and it helps that "crunchy" craving you are used to and helps you fill up on fiber.Work that in your meal plan/calories. I have chips with my…

my water bottle is my friend..it goes everywhere I do. It may look strange but it reminds me I need to drink it. At first, It was hard to do it, but now I get thirsty more often and am constantly downing swigs of water. before I know it I have drank over my daily intake of 8-8oz of water a day. Most days I consume 64…

fresher foods, less processed such as snack bars etc will cut down the sugars and as far as carbs complex carbs are like beans, fresh veggies and meat. I even cook raw cabbage, tomatoes beets etc. watch your labels on the cans of stuff you buy. use less bread unless whole grain. for less sugar in bread I found rice bread…

You know there are days I say "Its not fair I can't eat like other people that can and not gain weight" I just had to accept that was not how I was made. Lets face it... we are eataholics.We love all food. I think over weight people make the best chefs. They can "taste" it before its made. Just the smell of food makes us…

hi, my name is Lorie and I am a stress eataholic!! It makes me feel better. But now, I try to do something else besides eat..play with my dogs (helps my stress big time) when I am stressed my brain triggers my stomach to hurt and I want to eat to make it stop, wrongfully mistaking it for hunger pains. My biggest…

Thank you that makes sense, Maybe the site ought to change that to match the calorie/excersize chart? So does that mean I am still going to lose weight consistantly? I mean it kinda makes me nervous to trust the calorie counter if the out come is still more calories according to the report than I am alotted. So far I have…

Well I like adult beverages and why do we drink them? Honestly to get a relaxed buzz when we go out. My thoughts ,and I use them, is #1 I won't drink it if I don't like it and some of the fruity drinks just don't do it for me. I like the thicker liquors and drink Sambuca watered down with ice. 2 shots and I am good. I may…

Sounds like you just want the weight off NOW. Remember, the weight didn't come on that fast, so trying to lose it fast isn't healthy. YOur body goes into starvation mode and hordes the fat rather than release it. Get on this site , find your program ,which it says around 2 pounds a week is normal, track your calories. If…

I have pondered this question.. I love breakfast as I wake up hungry..BUT I have noticed if I wait until later to eat I personally don't get as hungry all day. I really think it has to do with your sleep patterns and habits.What if you worked third shift or have a sleeping disorder..they try to put you into a pattern that…

homemade Jalepeno jelly plain or mixed with light cream cheese on anything (even graham crackers) or dip pretzel rod,triscits,let your imagination go wild. It is sweet with a little zing at the end. I heard you can buy it other places but I grow a garden every year and use the fresh peppers. I read that hot peppers help…

I am with you girl. I have just started the program. My program said I need 3 workouts a week for 30 mins each. the thing is we do more than that like housework, laundry ,cooking, your work(I am a beautician and do alot of standing). All of that needs to be included in your excerize group. I have decided to get the monitor…
