Have you heard of a paleo diet? also referred to as the caveman diet. Basically it is going on the theory that the human body has not physically evolved since the paleolithic times, where you ate what you could hunt and gather. This didn't include any grains, as they are a pretty much a farmed plant rather than a freely…

I'm in Brisbane :)

Thanks :) I have changed the setting to 'maintain - though it seems like such a huge jump in calories! I will keep up the food journal as, yes, I feel like I am accountable then (been many a time I have thought of NOT adding something to my journal.... but I keep being honest). BTW - exactly how many calories IS in a lick…

Mangos are also considered a bit of a super food.... they tend to require more energy of the body than some other foods to digest. They are filled with goodness, and relatively low in sugars, fats and calories for substance. Watermelon....low cals, super high in sugar and therefore dangerous to the diabetic... and…

It is a block you put the balance board on to convert it to about a 7 inch step. I got mine from a sports store, but the major chains should have them also

I like both. The EA Sports seems to get my heart rate up better than the wii fit plus - I do the 30 minute high tempo step workout. But the wii fit plus has more variety, and you can burn calories doing things like the bicycle or boxing, or the obstical course... All are good :) I have worked out the main key to all of…

Love my wii fit! I bought the step accessory so that the step workout is actually meaningful. While I don't think the calorie burn rate is necessarily accurate, it seems to be a bit 'light on the burn'.... but at least I don't feel it overestimates the calories burned. I also have the wii active disc, which has some really…

Sounds juicy but hardly worth the effort of finding, reposting, and continuing with an argument that is inflamed far past the place your original post was meant to go to :) I get it though.... you want to read about nutrition in the nutrition section... intro's in the introduction section, .... and saucy juicy stuff in the…

So easy to do.... though I tend to use the app on my phone and keep a running account of my food/exercise.... also another thing I found is if I am going shopping, I put on a pedometer which then tells me how much I have burned by going around the supermarket isles...... nice way to do incidental exercise and add 'calories…

Like others said, you need to discard the bottom part, rather than bend them all individually I just cut off the bottom third. I also steam mine for 4minutes, then remove, and run for a second or so under cold water to stop the cooking process. Then you can season them any way you like! I also found that adding snow peas…
