Sounds AMAZING!!

I think that stress can cause us to either gain or loose weight. Everyone's body handles things differently

I took a Nutrition class in college and learned that carbs are the very important to have. Also it shouldn't effect your weight loss if you eat too many carbs as long as you are eating the recommended amount of calories. I have been focusing only on my calorie intake for over a month and have lost over 15lbs. I have gone…

2/3 cup cooked brown rice 1/2 avacado 1/4 cup pinto or black beans, canned 1-2 TBSP Salse This is an awesome and easy lunch or dinner!

thanks so much for all the input!! Awesome advice

I was recently in the same situation. I just tried to avoid everything I knew would be high in fat and calories (ex. I orderd a salad and took the cheese off, used salsa for dressing, and didnt eat the fried tortilla bowl) and only ate 10 chips with salsa. When I got home I typed in "Taco Sala" in the food database and…

Thanks so much! And yes I did do 45 minutes of cardio in order to eat dinner but still over did it.

It is at home meals that I plan to fit into my day but.... I always end up having a second helping. Like last night. I fixed barbeque sandwiches for the family and instead of having fries and bread, I put the meat on a baked potato, baked some squash, and had two slices of tomatoes but it didn't stop there. My daughter…

It does Thank you so much plussized! I just didn't think that 10 cups could fit in a bag so that is what was throwing me off.

Don't beat yourself up about it :wink: we all make our mistakes and thats ok as long as its not everyday. Just start over and take one day at a time :smile: We are here for you!

:happy: I know the serving size for unpopped popcorn is 2 Tbsp. But how much does that make popped? The box says 5 cups but I don't know if that is meaning for the whole bag or for a serving. Either way, when I enter the food into my diary it will be wrong because it has a serving listed as 1 cup. If there are only 5 cups…

OK, on the box that popcorn comes in, it says: Serving Size 2 Tbsp unpopped (makes about 5 cups popped) Servings per Bag: about 2.5 Now, doesn't this mean that 2 Tbsp makes 5 cups popped popcorn? Because when I log in the popcorn it is listed as 1 cup for a serving. Am I just misunderstanding?:blushing:

Does anyone know the nutritional difference between a large pizza and a medium pizza from mazzios? I can only find information for a medium

eleminate around 267 cups of sugar per year from your diet

Well the cereal only had 8g sugar but the banana was posted as 18g. That is what doesn't sound right to me

I just had a bowl of Honey Bunches of Oats, 1 banana, and 1/2 cup skim milk for breakfast and I am already over my sugar intake. Does that sound right? The banana is what put me over

Muscle does weigh more than fat......

:drinker: I agree!! Way to go! That takes dedication!!

I completely understand! I started going to the gym with a girlfriend and she stopped going to do turbo jam at home. It is sooo much harder for me to go now. I want to go but I have to go at night when my girls are asleep so my husband doesn't have to watch them too much and by the time 10:00 comes around I am ready to go…

:smile: So I thought that going a day eating foods that contain no fat would be a healthy decision for me. I thought that it would help me burn some fat because my body would have to use the fat that is already has. Well, tomorrow I start a nurtition class and I have already read the first chapter and come to find out, fat…

Thanks everyone!! I don't normal eat out but maybe twice a month, and then its usually subway but Wed and Fri(today) I spent almost all day out and I could have waited to get home before I ate but I have a 2 year old and a 1 year old and waiting for them is really hard so I allowed myself the endulgence. Although it was…

I have had fast food twice this week. I didn't go over my Calorie intake on both days but was wondering if that will still affect my weight loss.

Yep thanks so much!

I can stay within my calorie intake just fine but I always seem to go over my sugar intake around breakfast or lunch. How will this affect my weight loss?

I just had yoplait raspberry cheesecake non-fat yogurt and crumbled some low fat gram cracker on top and it was like eating the real things

Wow! Good! I have this exact problem! I didn't think that I had a reason for doing this other than I just like food but I guess I just need to slow down and think

I need a really good at home workout. I have been going to the gym but recently lost my exercise buddy so it is really hard for me to get motivated to go. I would rather stay at home and work out the only problem is I don't feel like I get as good a workout from home. I have been interested in turbo jam, and I have tried…

I don't think salmon is high in fat but I am not 100% sure. If you want to eat salmon though I have the BEST recipe for salmon, and I don't like fish either. I like tuna but that is all

Oh I drink PLENTY of water (I don't drink anything else except milk) and I eat TONS of bread, rice, and pasta. I was afraid that I wasn't getting enough protein cause I don't eat a lot of meat or nuts or anything like that. Its not that I don't want to or don't like them I am just in the mood for other stuff.

I need some help with staying full! It is almost 4:00pm and I am already 100 calories over. If I am not eating enough protein will that make a big difference?
