  • I would talk to your doctor first but here is a site to get information on calorie intake while pregnant: http://www.freedieting.com/tools/pregnancy_calorie_calculator.htm
  • Have you been taking your heart rate consistently during your workouts? I take my heart rate every 5 minutes on my HRM....my HRM usually shows more calories than the machines.
  • I just bought a New Balance HRM at Target that records your calories and I love it. It was $49.
  • I burn 400 calories on the elliptical machine at the gym in 33 minutes according to the machine. When I log my exercise in on myfitnesspal it is exactly the same give or take a little. It all depends on your height and weight. My husband that is heavier than me can burn more calories and we do the same time. I think your…
  • I do not have the gluten intolerance but my husband does. He was diagnosed with Crohns Disease and gluten bothers him. The hardest thing is finding good tasting bread. He really likes Udi's bagels and I make our own bread. I would definitely invest in a bread machine with a gluten free setting. There are many products out…
  • The reason why I drink a protein shake after my workout is because solid food takes more time to digest and to break down the protein and send it to the muscles and protein shakes only take about 30 minutes to reach the muscles after ingestion. Your body needs the protein to heal the muscles after an intensive workout.
  • I like Dymatize Elite Whey Protein Isolate....it has a great taste and mixes instantly....1 scoop is 117 calories, 2g fat, 2 carbs, 15mg cholesterol, and 24g protein. The rich chocolate flavor is my favorite. It tastes good with just water.
  • My husband used to take 150mg twice a day. I am assuming you are taking this for depression. What did you want to know about Bupropion? We usually Google the information on any medicines that we take, ask the pharmacist or the doctor.
  • It would be pointless to give you advice when we have no idea what you are eating, how many calories you are burning, sodium intake, etc. We need to view your food diary in order to help you or you need to give us more details about what you are doing???
  • I don't have a problem with getting my protein at all.....I always go over my protein and I have no problem with that....there are great protein sources out there with little to no carbs in them. My protein shake only has 2g of carbs and 24g of protein. If you like Greek yogurt....there are some out there with 23 g per cup…
  • My understanding is that you should have at least 8 glasses of water a day in addition to any other drink. I log my tea, coffee, milk, etc., separate from my water.
  • The direction on the box of Trader Joe's Quinoa says to simply treat quinoa like rice. add two parts water to one part quinoa, stir, cover, and cook. I hope this helps. I just made it yesterday on the stovetop but I have never made in my rice cooker. Let me know how it comes out.
  • I have problems with my right calf really hurting me if I did not do stretching exercises before I start to walk. You might have pulled a muscle in your leg. Make sure that you stretch before you go on a walk.
