Quinoa is delicious! And a super healthy food :)

Someone should do some really objective research, but I have heard that just because a food product is labeled as organic does not mean they use less pesticides. I've read that the difference is that they use organic pesticides, not less (or more). Its hard to say what is better for our bodies.... organic pesticide or…

I suggest you watch Sick, Fat and Nearly Dead. It will definitely make you think about how to eat. He does a juice diet and experienced headaches around day 3 and 4. Juicing isn't for everyone but I think you should push through a couple more days to see what happens. If not then switch it up. When you're hungry you…

I buy local over mystery location food... It is expensive, but I would rather spend $4.00 on eggs that have a beautiful dark yolk that I know has a ton of nutrition than waste $2.00 over watery pale yellow eggs. Same for fruits/veggies/meats.

Diet Tonic and Gin with a wedge of lime is delicious! It helps me to bring or order a glass of dry red wine.... its still delicious, has some actually decent health benefits, and I drink a glass of wine WAY slower than a blue moon.

Fear of failure is a really difficult thing... It's something that I struggle with as well. Start with small steps. Don't completely change your life in one day! It sounds like you talk to yourself in a negative way which affects your life more than you think. I think today, when you find yourself thinking one negative…

I am in graduate school and 3-4 days a week don't get home until 9 and am usually very hungry... and I have been struggling to lose these extra pounds even with diet and a good mix of cardio/weights. I stopped eating (and having a drink) after 8:30 or 9 and I've been consistently losing 1.5-2 pounds a week. I also don't…

I'm close to 5'3" SW 146 CW 139 GW... not sure!!!!! Around 125? Here's the thing.... the smallest I've ever been is 124 and everyone asked me if I was sick because I looked emaciated. It's hard not to believe what science says is our healthy weight... So I guess I'd like to be around 125 but with lots of toned muscle! Is…

Usually fear of failure keeps people from staying motivated to achieve their goals.

Hi Ashlie! I'm not too sure about detoxes, I've heard so many pros and cons to both. From what I've heard a good middle ground option of a raw foods or just veggie diet for a few days seems to work for a lot of people and has a good balance of what you're looking for. However, your symptoms sound exactly like a Vitamin…

Erin, I'm 5'2 and 135 right now... trying to loose the last 10 lbs. Maybe you could help motivate me! Hah

Dear Boyfriend, I appreciate and love you very much, but it is very irritating when you get angry while playing video games. You're a grown man, and they are games, which inherently means there will be winning AND losing. Sometimes 12 year olds in Korea cheat. Deal with it. It's kind of funny actually. What will you do…

One Word: Chromeo Also, most music by David Guetta is really good paced - See: Sexy Chick, and Gettin Over You.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion of course, but I really encourage everyone to read this article, and watch this lecture, however long. http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/OnCall/story?id=4271246&page=1 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBnniua6-oM

I am the same way with stress and eating, I really can empathize. Being upset with yourself about falling off track will only cause you more stress=more binge eating. Everyone makes mistakes, and the fact that you know your triggers means you're farther along than most people. Move forward and try to do better today :)
