He/She must be a Tim Ferris fan.... I do try and have a lot of early morning protein & fiber, as to the exact science on it, there may be some truth, but who knows. Everyone is different, if there was a master plan, pill, exact science, none of us would be overweight and there would not be so many articles, pills, varying…

thanks for sharing, I am going to try this, this week..... :)

I love the Chik Patties, I had one of those for lunch today,.. they are great to make chicken salad with too :)

Morning Star Griller's 1/4 lb burgers are good

My DH has an app on his phone, links to a site called every trail. We use it mostly when we Kayak but we have used it when we have went for walks/rode bikes. It shows a map on the site, of your route, your average speed, and if you take pictures it will show on the map where the pics were taken. IDK if this will really…

agreed, what he said :) Losing it the right way, you have a better chance of keeping it off and maintaining your goal weight, in the end. You will have a much better outcome/result.

I would love to get some recipes myself, ... starting a new class in a couple weeks, so I will be pressed for time.

I agree all that is sad,... but it's all about education and getting food costs down. I know in our state (AL), food is NOT tax exempt and it should be. It's cheaper for the lower income families to hit the buck meals at the local fast food joint, than it is to buy a gallon of milk or a bag of apples.

In some cases I can see, maybe, not really, but maybe...... But most (not all) I know that have done this, are not successful for long term, and the few that are and have been, become successful when they have dealt with their own food choices/issues. IMHO, it should not be that easy. That means, that when I started back…

I agree,.... this is insane! I don't ever think going under the knife, for any reason, should be that easy, for anyone.

Agreed 1600 isn't much at all - but most of your commercial diets base it on 1600 calories for women and 1800 for men. Any variation in anyone's intake along with moderate exercise, will show results. That's why food logging in general, is great for everyone, regardless. It makes us self aware.

... actually most women can do 1600 calories and still lose 1-2 lbs a week - most of your diets are based on that amount, but they don't allow exercise cals, because that number is based on someone who is less active, the more active you are, the more you can eat, and the more you will find you need to eat. I also agree I…

Yeah, sad sodium is the hardest thing to monitor, prepackaged foods (specially instant foods) are loaded with sodium :ohwell: I am making it tonight as a side, with our sesame chicken skewers and veggies, once in a while doesn't hurt....

watch your sodium intake, days prior too and during, eat lots of fresh fruits and veggies (peaches, cucumbers, and watermelon are all natural diuretics), and drink more water....

I like it a lot, it's fun and it will get your heart rate up playing the Sports,... The Soccer and the Track and Field. The boxing is a little off,..... (accuracy) but they are still working on getting it timed right, so IDK about the Fighters Caged, how accurate it may be. But I think it's worth the money.

I'm in, ty for the list -- a lot of this I already have but I had Cinnamon and ginger on my bagel this morning :) Cept the seaweed I only eat that when we have sushi :laugh:

You can get it all on your computer

I will have to check that section out :)

Yes I love Exercise TV OnDemand, you can also go to their website Exercise TV.com and get a lot of the workout videos, for really cheap and it's great when you have to go out of town, you can view the videos on your laptop. I have posted on it a couple of times before. I like the ABs section and the Yoga. I use it for my…

Slow and steady is best -- Losing weight is not the hard part, it's keeping it off... And a slow steady pace with learned adjusts, reteaching yourself the right way to eat, will equal success in keeping it off in the future :) WTG, Congrats! :flowerforyou:

WTG, awesome job and you look just as beautiful in the first pic,.... but I know you are a happier "You" today! That's awesome, congrats :flowerforyou:

It is bulloney, .... anything, I mean anything you put in your body/consume on a regular basis, be it caffeine, sugar, fast food, etc...... it can be addictive. Anything can be addictive and we have to stop blaming everyone but ourselves. There's no accountability anymore. it's our life/lifestyle. We make those choices on…

What's bad today, is tomorrow's okay .... all things in moderation :flowerforyou: Most of these ridiculous studies are done on people that consume massive/extreme amounts of whatever it is they are trying to sell us on, ... of the day.

:sick: eeewww on the toe nails, but funny :laugh:

JM's Shred it w/Weights you use a Kettle Bell :)

Elliptical and/or Cybex machines are awesome, they give you the same cardio workout as running, (more so if you do interval training) however they are much easier on the joints and feet. I had a motorcycle accident (massive crush injury) last year and I can no longer run, but both of these machines, are awesome, and they…

Good Morning Brittany :) Your Food Diary doesn't give us much to go on. Your medicines, I am sure, play a factor. However, from the one day of logging I saw, it looks like you need to space out your meals and eat smaller meals, every four hours, rather than one large meal a day. That could be the problem. If you are…

I do not understand everyone's fixation on Greek Yogurt. I am not a fan of it at all, the consistency is way off, and I don't enjoy the taste. I have cooked with it but to simply eat it, no. And you are right some brands have way more sugar, it is higher in protein, but I can get my protein elsewhere.

Don't worry about it,... it's one day. We don't gain weight over night, just like we don't lose weight over night. You may retain some extra water weight, I am sure your sodium was up, drink plenty of water today and throw in some exercise, if you can, to make you feel better. We all have those days. Today is a new day and…

awesome recipe, I don't have any pears, but I have apples :)
