Also, I know you like diet soda, but those artificial sweeteners are proved to stimulate hunger and makes your body crave more sweets. Not to mentions all the other inflammatory and cancer causing properties!!! Sorry to burst your diet Pepsi bubble. Believe me once you cut it out of your diet you won't miss it.

I agree with drinking more water, that helps me a lot!!! when I think I am hungry I chug a whole lot of water and it makes my stomach feel soooo full!!! Also make sure you are eating nutrient dense foods that keep you full longer. Don't just eat low calorie, low fat items, cut those empty calories out of your diet!!! Foods…

I Don't do the insanity videos but I do a similar class at my gym called "Insane", it's the same concept. I found that ever since I started working out hard I actually gained a couple lb's!!!! However, I have lost inches, my clothes are all loose on me and my body is showing great definition!!! So I guess it is not about…

I got married in January. I never tried to diet for my wedding. I weighed about the same I do now but I looked totally different. Even though my weight hasn't changed much, my body, face and just total appearance has changed for the better ever since I started eating healthy and exercising more. I now look at my wedding…

Wow, it seams that you have had a roller coaster of emotions after losing those close to you.I cant imagine going through so much pain. It seems to me that you have a good support and this friend of yours is definitely trying to push you in the right direction. Zumba is a great first step, it is fun and the time by goes by…

Nice to hear that I am not the only one... I never eat my exercised calories. Last night, after having a tough two day due to a family death, I gave in to popcorn at the theater and then a dinner of breaded fried fish and mashed potatoes!!!! SO now I am over my 1300 cal limit (not counting my exercise) and I am feeling…

I have been saying this for a while... If alcohol didn't have so many calories I would drink a whole lot more!!! LOL so I guess it's probably a good thing that it does!!!

OMG.... So I just made and ate the kale chips!!! they taste amazing!!! I think the next time I make them (soon) I will turn down the cooking temp a bit. 425 was too hot and some got a little burned. Also I will probably omit the EVOO or use a substitute so I can enjoy more without the guilt of the extra calories!! The best…

I just bought Kale yesterday after reading a similar recipe on HEALTH magazine: CRISPY TAMARI KALE CHIPS - Combine 2 teaspoons olive oil, tamari, and sherry vinegar - Toss with 1/2 pound kale (about six cups) - Divide kale mixture among 2 shallow baking pans; bake at 425 until crisp and golden (about 15 min) - When done…

You know your a gym rat when.... - You schedule your work hr around the gym class schedule - Even when you are so sore you cant even move, you can't justify not going - Others at the gym notice when you have been gone for a day - You are on Vacation thinking about your workouts and looking for workout options.

Wow, I have just learned the lesson that calorie intake makes all the difference in weight loss!!! I have had a great workout routine for a while now and a rather healthy diet but still could not manage to lose a single pound... in fact while I lost inches I actually gained weight!!! I decided to log my calorie intake and…
