I thing everyone is right on target. Do what you know works for yourself because you know yourself best. Whether or not you decide to continue a friendship with this person is your choice. I think you will always encounter people like this, though, and this might be a good opportunity to learn how to deal with these kind…

I don't see anything wrong with that at all. I can't believe they even said anything to you. Pretty rude, if you ask me. I think they make enough money that a few Happy Meals being eaten by adults isn't going to hurt their bottom line. Your only other alternative would be to order those things separately off the menu but I…

Thanks to everyone. I really do want to break the white habit and I appreciate you taking time to give suggestions. I'm off to the store! Jo

Thanks! I'll have to look for that. I'm assuming Brownberry is the brand name? Any particular brand of tortillas you use? Thanks so much for you thoughts.

I think you might be surpised by what you can do. I'm 43, I have arthritis and I weigh 234 (I just lost 8lbs the last month). At my gym we have Les Mills BodyPump classes which are intense weight training classes put to music, I started doing that about a year ago and I never thought I could do something like that before…

My instructor says "yes, you should workout anyway", I know, irritating. But from my experience it actually helps the soreness go away. Stretching those muscles as much as you can helps too. I also think you might be surprised at what you could do today but if you can't you could just do as much as you can as long as its…

My gym doesn't have BodyAttack so that wasn't listed but if it's similar to Combat i would use the same formula. I'm four weeks into a biggest loser contest at my gym and we have to try all the classes as assignments. I've done Pump and Flow for a year (Flow is a combination of Tai Chi, Yoga and Pilates), just started…

Finally! Another Les Mills fan! At my gym they calculate it by your weight multipied by .05 multiplied by 55 (minutes). Example 150*.05*55= 412.5 BodyPump is .04 BodyStep and RPM is .06 BodyJam is .05 BodyFlow is .03

Allysond, I think you may be right. It's seems incredible that I could burn off almost 800 calories in an hour (I'm pretty overweight) but I did lose 2 pounds this week. That's really making me love the exercise! It's nice to know that if I need to "blow the diet" occasionally that I have that leeway. I like the exercising…

I had that same question! I've just started an 8 week biggest loser program and I'm not sure what to do either. I'm also skeptical of the accuracy of the calories burned equations. I'm worried that I'm not burning off as much as it says I am. And if I'm not then I might eat too much! Well, I guess I'll just do the best…
