  • Fage 2% with Honey, add 1/4 cup of Nature Valley Protein Granola 295 calories, 45g carbs, 5g fat and 17g protein. Perfect breakfast!
  • "Happiness is contagious!" I know that when I'm healthy, I'm happy, and when I'm happy, I'm a better person and make others around me happier too, so this is the quote I live by :-D
  • I'm a week shy of my 1-year mark (May 30) and since then I've lost 40.2 lbs. My goal is 41, so I'm REALLY hoping that the last 0.8 comes off before the anniversary!! The last few months have been very slow (about 0.3/lb per week), so I'm just trying to be consistent at this point.
  • Skinny pop knew i needed an afternoon snack or dinner would become a total BINGE!
  • ummmm bacon. Applegate Farms Organic Sunday bacon is only 60 calories for 2 pan fried slices. Hello 4 slices of bacon with my breakfast! Also air-popped popcorn. About 180 calories for 6 cups is wonderful - especially when seasoned with a little herbs and parmesan if I'm feeling saucy (obv ups the cals, but so worth it!!)…
  • THOSE WERE MY JAM!!! omg yum Also loved star crunch Now I want something sweet......
  • I primarily shop at Lulu for running and yoga gear. I have bought things in the past from Old Navy, Under Armour, and Athleta, and honestly - Lulu is the best quality. Anyone who has never worn it would obviously think it is absurdly overpriced (which I do agree, it is too expensive), but I bought my first pair of running…
  • bump for later!
  • I'm 5' 8'' my starting weight was 206 and I'm currently about 167. Goal weight is 165 but these last 2 lbs seem to never want to leave....I'm mostly concerned about toning up at this point.....I can't seem to get the image to show I tried it 35 times......Profile picture is current
  • I log everything. Even things like herbs. I know they don't add up very fast, but I think I'm obsessive about my numbers being accurate. I rarely ever chew gum, but if I do I log it. I'll log lemon and lime juice, because I like to track all of my nutrients. That's actually why I track everything (Even if its 0-5…
  • Nelly - Just a Dream.................. seriously it's been on my running playlist since it came out 4 years ago and it has never left. it has the PERFECT beat!!
  • I started putting it in my smoothies! It doesn't have as much tang as greek yogurt and really makes it creamy! I usually will do 1 scoop protein, 1 banana, 1/4-1/2 cup cottage cheese (4% fat), and berries. It is fabulous and a TON of protein.
  • Whoops - didn't realize I was supposed to post everyday!!!!! lol Here I am checking in for the first time on day 21! Anyways - on track!
  • Grilled chicken pita with tzatziki and feta and a small kale salad andagirlscoutcookie :-P
  • I've gotta think this is really strongly tied to your limited water intake. If I don't get at least 8-10 cups a day I start getting headaches and 'tummy troubles'. For almost a year I've tried to have 12 cups every single day...the days I don't hit that mark I can certainly tell. Since you're working out for 30 minutes…
  • I'm interested in joining the challenge!! Put me down for 60 miles.
  • Yup. I've made it before and it's quite a hassle. Squeezing all the liquid out took forever, and then baking it also took a really long time. It was OKAY, but certainly just wasn't the same (or even close) to real pizza crust. I'm not sure I'd try it again
  • I really like carrot, apple, ginger. It's pretty simple but I like the taste and the ginger gives it a little kick. Once in awhile I'll add a beet, but honestly I find that beet juice gets old pretty fast. Another one I like is cucumber, apple, lemon, and kale. I don't love to juice greens like kale or spinach because it…
  • Since my calorie target is at 1210 right now, I definitely eat back the workout calories. I TRY to only eat back 50-75% as others have mentioned (mostly because I believe exercise calories are easily overestimated). However, some days I net around 500 calories, some days I net right at 1210, and occasionally I'll net…
  • I really like syntha-6 strawberry. I use it 99% of the time for smoothies which are incredible - almost creamy tasting (usually just powder, blueberries and a banana). It mixes really well and doesn't give too 'goopy' of a texture if you know what I mean. I haven't cooked with it, although my boyfriend has made protein…
  • Also I'll add that I was at a SunTan City (idk if you have those around you), but there are 3 levels of beds and I was in the lowest power bed.
  • YES 10 Minutes is too long!!! I'm also going on vacation in 2 weeks and decided to tan a few times in advance....I went last night and the guy recommended 10 minutes for me (as my skin isn't too fair to begin with) and my chest and stomach are burned!! I'd recommend 6-7 minutes the first few times and then maybe up it to…
  • omg this is my life. i recently read an article that said for weight loss, instead of 90% to 10% cardio to strength it should be 50% to 50%....I nearly passed out. i know strength training was impt, but come onnn......
  • Good fat carries fat-soluble vitamins around the body, it helps maintain healthy skin...omega-3 fats helps promote heart health and reduce the risk of clogged arteries!! Like a previous poster mentioned, add some olive oil when you're cooking. Eat seafood high in omega-3s like salmon or tuna. Full fat cheese and sour cream…
  • Running a Turkey trot (4.4) in the morning, limiting my calories leading up to the big meal, and then eating and drinking whatever I want. Hopefully I'll have saved enough calories Sun-Wed to allow myself ~2000 calories Wine Turkey Stuffing Rolls Green bean casserole Cherry pie!! with canned cherries!! Idk why I love it so…
  • Definitely any of them would be good, but I'd ask for no mayo on the turkey burger and no remoulade on the tilapia. Besides that they all look pretty good!!
  • My current goal is 165 which is what I weighed as a college athlete...about 12 lbs to go. If I can continue to reduce my body fat that would be great as well! I'm aiming for 20% (Currently about 27%) Now I'm wondering if I should lose more based on all the responses I'm seeing here aiming for 130-140........the last time I…
