Wow, wish I would have known wheat was poison. I should have told my granny before she died at 97 years old she was going to die early cause she was poisoning herself. She had toast and sammiches every day. Went through the depression with bread and lard too.

When I eat more broccoli, zucchini, and green beans a lot, I tend to keep the weight down. Those two items are carbs, correct? Carbohydrates are not evil. We need them.

you mean like another life time in the past?

It's the processed stuff, it sucks. Some brands will be specific in lower sodium/sugars and put it on their labels. I think the best bet for the yogurt is plain with your own additions.

I am not a man, last I checked, so take this for the crap that it is worth. Men can have the most perfect boobies at home, every night, for weeks/months/years and they are still going to look at the other boobies that walk by. If you are large chested, they will look at little ones. If you are small chested, they will look…

It all depends on my mood. But sometimes, I will admit, an ab picture or big guns help. (men or women)

I cannot imagine the misery that accompanied the low calories. Glad you switched!

raw is more accurate a rare steak weighs more than a well done steak.

Yes, eat them.

5'3", 115 and I eat 1700 plus depending on how active I am.

Pills. I got sick of the many I was taking for x,y,z... The last straw was a Neurologist that said "I don't know what is wrong, but I can give you a pill to control it" F that. I figured that if I could get in the best shape ever (or the best I could possibly get) I could control some of the things that were issues for me.…

I run the same amount/time as a friend of mine. He outweighs me by 85 pounds. He burns much more than I do.

Oh, also, was told that we can only absorb 500mg of calcium at a time. This has some good info- http://www.health.harvard.edu/newsweek/What_you_need_to_know_about_calcium.htm

Bone Up is what I take cause I fall short on Calcium and have low bone density, so I have to take something. I would suggest getting a supplement.

Really? does this work well?

You will not be let down and you will have to deal with craving it more. Is that what you want to do? Stick with the crap pizza and you won't eat as much. ;) I only crave NY pizza and ONLY from people that came from NY and make pizza here.

If you cannot catch your breath and you feel chest tightening then I believe you are going to fast (for now). In time it will come together. I think if you feel pain in your chest you are not getting enough oxygen. Oxygen is good. No oxygen is bad. (of course there could be something more to the issue, but that is medical…

I do not think you are sorry like you say you are sorry. I am butthurt.

No, not unrealistic. Even some women that have had children get a flat tummy. I don't think it will come for me, 2 out of 3 kids stretched my small frame beyond what I thought was scientifically possible. However, I still work at it and hope. Someday.

Not sure if anyone else mentioned this but hormones can make you fluctuate. Being a female, ya know, we like to retain water at certain times. This can be a couple pounds. But I do kind of agree that 2 pounds per week may be over doing it. It is really difficult to cut that much weight when you don't have that much to get…

diet coke with splenda My fix.

The Salmone Brick Roasted Chicken Gamberi Olio... whatever. Shrimp and sketti. Grilled food will usually be lowest calories. I say usually cause of course if it is marinated in fat, then it isn't. Plus a roasted something or other could be low cal too. Sauteed-> can be iffy. Needs oil or butter? HTH. edit= you want to stay…

I have a long list, different beats per minute. Here are some 'bands' from my many lists. Thirty Seconds to Mars. Motley Crue Linkin Park Swedish House Mafia Korn Dada Life

I wouldn't in public because I feel insecure no matter what. I work out at home and always wear a tank. I have no issue with anyone else doing what they feel like though.

IMO it is ok to not 'carb load' for a 5k. Even a 45-60 minute run doesn't need a ton of carbo loading before. Eat normal, don't over do it, 2-3 hours before? If you need something more eat small compact food like nuts or dried fruit. Again, just my own opinion. Once you start (if you do) doing longer races then I think the…

Yuck. That stinks.
