  • Became willing to openly and honestly look at my relationship with food, made a decision, and took action. Daring because I was completely honest and open to myself and others. What if I fail? I have to go through this little ditty with myself daily even after almost 2 years! "Did I fail yesterday? No.... Am I planning on…

  • Be in inspiration! Do what you do, when you need to do it. I've had several people ask me questions and I'm always willing to help if I can.

    in Wear HRM all day to determine ideal weight loss calories? Comment by wechoosenow November 2012
  • I think there is a fine line between reducing calories to promote weight loss and putting your body into starvation mode where it conserves the food you eat rather than burn it readily. Water loss is always the first to be released from the fat cells for a new "dieter". My advise is to use the MFP calculations for calories…
    in Is my diet slowing me down? Comment by wechoosenow October 2012
  • I know for me this is why I use a gym. I tell myself that I have to at least walk through the doors on a regular basis. Once I'm inside, the next step is I have to at least exercise 10 min. Next thing I know,I've completed my entire routine! Not everyday is like this but certainly there are times when this strategy has…

  • I don't eat "added sugar" so found Ezekiel Bread is sprouted whole grain, taste good, and doesn't have added sugar. That's my choice.

  • I believe that sugars from fruits and veggies have a lower glycemic (sugar level) impact on us because fruits and vegetables are a whole food containing other nutrients and fiber to help with the absorption and digestion of these sugars. Having said that I also believe that we can abuse these natural sugars by consuming…

  • I couldn't agree more! Love my PF in Renton, WA. Friendly staff, good equipment, and I (who is far from a gym rat) feels very comfortable there. I started Weight Watchers 2/8/2011. I started PF in July of 2011. I have steadily weeded out all refined sugars and processed foods from my diet. 1 1/2 years later I am now 182…
