Apple Pomegranate Crisp. Yummy! Or just eat the arils plain. Or mix them with yogurt... You only use the "seeds" all of the peel and pith get thrown out, but you can Google plenty of recipes! Last year I did an entire dinner planned around pomegrantes- every dish used them in some way.

Under the Home tab, there should be a Goals link. Choose that, and it will give you the option to change your goals. When you do, there will be a "guided" and a "custom" option. Choose custom, and you can change the amount of protein without affecting calories or anything else. Once that's done, just click the green change…

This. It will always give you that message if you eat below 1200 calories in any given day, since for most (if not all) women, 1200 is the absolute lowest you should go for your body to have enough calories to function properly.

Train yourself to drink a large glass before each meal. Not only does it help you get your daily amount in, but it also helps signal your brain that you are full sooner. Or you could set an alarm on your phone and drink a 1/2 cup to a cup every time it goes off (every hour or so). Eventually you won't even need the alarm.

I use protein shakes before and after a workout. It's supposed to help your muscles repair themselves faster so you are less sore the next day. I don't really use them as a meal replacement, unless I know I'm having a high calorie breakfast or dinner. If I try to add a shake to that, then I go over on my count. And as for…

Hahaha... I don't have a smartphone either! You can still enter distance and time and it will give you a close estimate. and you can plot a map, if you stick to streets...

I use RunKeeper to track my walks. If you do it outside, you can track your walk with a smartphone, and it uses GPS, along with the info you input (age, weight, etc.) to calculate the number of calories you've burned. As far as I can tell, it's pretty accurate.

My last major cheat day was when my boyfriend was out of town (September 22). I had a Girl's Night In... We ordered pizza, and played The Big Bang Theory drinking game. Half a pizza later and about a dozen shots... Boy, was I WAY over my calorie intake! But it had literally been months since I'd done anything like that,…

Disagree! Chicago deep-dish all the way! (I'm an Illinois girl too.)

I'm not saying I would eat mine like that, but it's an option if you want to keep the calories in check. If I'm having pizza, I mark it as a splurge day and make up for it the rest of the week.

You could always order a thin crust with veggies, and no extra cheese. Or something with a pesto based sauce...

I saw this topic a bit late (as in, just now), but I am in! *Current Weight: 172.8 lbs. *Goal Weight: 160 lbs. *So far this week... Exercise has been kicking my butt! I've had two pretty intense workouts, and I went on a 3-mile walk today, even though my hams, quads, and glutes were screaming at me from my tire workout…

I have 7 different workout routines ranging from simple body weight exercises to Kettlebell, TRX, and tire flipping. I try to go on walks at least twice a week, but I get my cardio in doing the KB and tire workouts.

Simply put, muscle weighs more than fat. :D
