  • I have a 6'4 husband too - i always double or triple his portion compared to mine. I try to make healthy food from my Jamie Oliver cook books. His ingredients are wholesome and the meals are tasty. I also encourage him to snack on nuts, dried fruits, cheese, and protein shakes between meals. Good luck!

  • That's a tricky situation. First of all please know that you've done nothing wrong. Your fiancee is probably just jealous of the common things you and your trainer share and the time you spend with him. It might sound silly (but then again - human egos are silly alot of the time) but tell your fiancee how much you would…

  • I've dabbled in vegetarianism and I went vegan for about 6 months (after reading a terrifying book about slaughterhouses ... I couldn't even walk down the meat aisle in my grocery store for weeks) This is what I found:\ 1) When I had time to PLAN my meals properly I had a ton of energy and my skin, hair, and mood improved.…

  • I'm the same ... I always get great results when I start running but I HATE it so much - runner high is a gyp!

  • Hey I'm going through the same thing - just don't throw in the towel! Ask yourself these questions to keep it up. 1) Am I eating more nutritious whole foods that nurture my body by giving me nutrients? 2) Am I making my muscles and mind more healthy with physical exercise? If you're doing those 2 things (and trust me -…

  • I like pouring POM wonderful in a wine glass. That way i'm getting the antioxidants with less calories and more health benefits. Pouring it into a wine glass also makes it feel 'special'. Good luck

  • Totally starting over again. I now have only 2 months to lose the 15 pounds I've put on since my wedding (what? when did that happen is my response still...) I guess it didn't help that I went from a two fairly active jobs (waitressing and teaching Spec. Ed. to an office job where my butt does not leave my chair except in…

  • You're an inspiration! I damaged my lower back in 2009 and I'm having trouble finding a workout routine that is strenuous enough to burn lots of calories and build muscles but won't make me reach for my pain meds. Any tips/ideas? (Right now I can 'swim/doggy paddle' for 45 mins and bike steady for 20 mins as well as walk…

  • The easiest advice I ever got was to multiply the weight you want to be by 10 and that will give you the calories you need daily.
