The problem with snackey foods like granola and even protein bars, they are very high in carbs or sugar, and when you don't burn carbs as energy, they actually cause excess fat storage. It's really bad for us who sit all day and aren't burning it. With that said, the body still needs carbs because the brain runs on…

I'm brand new to running and use the C5k app...not much of July left, so will set my goal to 15 miles since I'm slow and very overweight, so I have to do it the right way to build up. I'm also doing a cardio class twice a week

This is going to sound weird because I found this out by accident. I'm an avid soda drinker. I crave it like white collared office jocks like me crave coffee. I started drinking cucumber water this week for other health benefits and I haven't craved soda unless it's staring me in the face. I mean, we have lie a $50 budget…

Thanks for the positive feedback and for everyone else who gave positive feedback :) I believe marriage is a commitment and looking for positive solutions of different ways I can handle things. He one of those people who refuses to sit and talk unless there is a massive fight first. Life is too short to live with nothing…

Because I tend to attract excellent liers and guys who know exactly how to confuse me into thinking I'm reading the situation wrong., even if down the road people tell me I was right. That's why. Also, it took a drastic and major decline after we got married. He's utterly clueless really. His selfishness really makes him…

I'm gonna get slaughtered for this, but I dont feel teenagers should be having sex...to many confused emotions and broken hearts they're not ready for. Few guys your age are ready to parent, and you only will be ready by necessity and grace. Raising a child comes first. No more men for a good while. Raising a child to feel…

I work in an urgent care and a lab, so we pretty much have a bingo going of all the phrases. "Do I put my name here or the patient's name?" I have *insert self diagnosis with a long medical term* and I need you to give me *insert self-prescribed treatment* *Large yellow signs and arrows with candy in front of it "Sign in…

I made it a habit to use the app when I'm preparing to put something in my mouth, that way I don't forget. I've been working everyday for the last 9 days plus trying to sort through my whole house because I'm getting married and set up a garage sale that my fiance is going to run while I'm at work. The app goes with me on…

Diablo 3: Easy to tear through until half way through inferno. I've been soloing Act 2, but without cash shopping it hurts some. The unfortunate thing is they haven't implimented the PVP aspect yet. The game lacks room for expansion. MMOs shouldn't have an end per say. This one does. SWTOR: This had a more social aspect to…

I met my fiance on a game through his brother. We've known each other over three years, we met up at Dragon-con in Atlanta and hit it off. He's lived in my state now for over two years and we're getting married in October. We still bicker playing games sometimes, because we're both competitive with them, but at the end of…

I love crockpot recipies! I like to make home-made vegetable beef this way. We buy all fresh vegetables; carrots, green beans, lima beans, onions, potatoes, corn, and lean stew steak. We mix it in broth and add our own salt to taste so it's lower sodium. It's more or less add the vegetables and half the broth while you…

Congrats!

Whenever I'm sick, I have trouble eating anything. Broth, juice, and sprite are the only thing I really want. I agree with the salt thing though. I think I crave salty when I'm sick. Crackers and soup usually do it for me. I wonder what it is about salt?

Wow. I can't believe I missed that. Thanks!

This opens the floodgate of religious opinion, but personally, I have known people do it and it causes nothing but anger, hurt, jealousy, and utter confusion for children involved. Usually people try them because one person doesn't want to commit and wants to play the field, but the other person doesn't really and just…

There's and Aldi's near my work. I'll have to check it out!

What is your hair care routine?: I seldom use a blow dryer. I wash my hair daily because I have oily skin. Towel dry. I try not to comb my hair when wet but with a wide-tooth comb. Hair type?: Very fine, straight Hair length?: Medium-long Products you use?: I use dove moisture shampoo and conditioner daily for less…

I use the Sally Hensen Hard as Nails, but the product itself cracks after a few days because I'm so hard on my hands. I'll have to try this!

Woohoo! Awesome job! You are one of those people I'm proud of. I've never stopped anyone to tell them so, but I really am more proud of all the people I see who are not yet built like a runner, because they are struggling and working the hardest. People that build anything from nothing rather than the people who are born…

That's funny. I had the same problem. They used Morphine on my and it didn't touch the pain. Just made me groggy. They sent me home with liquid Vicodin and that didn't do a dang thnig either. They had to prescribe dilauded. Never been on anything that hardcore even for when i get kidney stones. That's rough about the tummy…

I find mixing in a little bit of something you want every few days into your daily calorie intake keeps you from binging. One oops day every so often won't kill your progress, but in my experience, an oops day a week will. Most of us will gorge ourselfs on sugar, carbs, fatty meats. This will put our metabolisms into…

Val, I have this issue with lettuce because it doesn't last long. Realistically, lettuce isn't all that nutritious. The vegetables are. I bought spinach yesterday instead and going to add tomatoes and cucumbers. These are cheap and it's a good variety. It lasts longer, is better for you, and if you get veggies at certain…

At least I'm not the only one! That sounds about how mine was. Pretty excruciating for about 8 days. By the 10th day, although painfully, I sat through a 4 hour teaching certification test on a hard old-school high school chair. The severe pain went away, but eating anything was difficult still.

I think clean means different things to different people. For some, it's eating healthy and natural foods. For others, it's eating organic and non-processed, or both. There's a book called "The Medditer-Asian Way," and it makes me think of clean eating. They bring up portion control and also how having a colorful plate in…

Hey, thanks for the add. 101 lbs is a great goal, but take it slow. I agree iw ienniet04, slow and steady leads to lasting results. Also, it will help you avoid the extra skin problem. Sinc you are young, your skin has more elasticity. If you loose weight, continue to tone, use moistureizer on your skin daily, and take…

Costco Ironically, the processed foods that we do buy, like peanut butter and jelly, and even bread, we get here cheap. Much of it is also lower calories than other brands. Meijer This is my one stop shop if I don't want to go a lot of places. I've tried doing all my shopping here, at Walmart, at Kroger, and at Country…
