Today I went to the gym, even though I didn't feel like I had the energy for a workout. 35 minutes on the treadmill, 10 on elliptical, 10 on recumbent bike and once around on the circuit....not as long as I normally work out, but I was there!

You did great hanging in there! The exact same thing happened to me the first time I got on an Elliptical....lol! I have recently gone back to the gym after an almost 2 year absence....and a 67 lb weight gain! I used to do an hour on the elliptical, but now 10 min is my limit. I am hoping to increase my time to 15 min next…

One of our daughter-in-laws has to be gluten-free, so I used rice papers instead of wonton…

Sugar most definitely matters, whether or not you are a diabetic. Sugar accounts for a lot of calories, i.e..sodas, desserts, breads....and the list goes on. Salad dressing is a common culprit.

Hi! Welcome to MFP. I am also new to this group, and I see that the others have already answered your question! My sister and I have noticed that, on some food items in MFP, the calorie count is inaccurate....a litlte lowl So, just to keep ourselves honest, we also use the calorie counter on Sparkpeople.com. It's just…
