just do it.. you definitely wont be the only there with no rythm... thats what is great about it.. the classes are full of all kinds of people. You just do your best and laugh at the end!!

Ask your doctor.. I went to a nurtritionist a few weeks ago who did metablic testing on me.. we were able to see how many calories I burn while at rest.. it was really cool but also ban news for me.. as all along I just assumed I had a slow metabolism as I have such a hard time losing weight.. well that isnt it.. in fact…

Hi.. it looks like it is your excersize that is bringing up the count so high.. there is always a debate on if you should eat the extra calories or not.. I eat some.. but you burned over a 1000 today so I would tell you to make sure you get a decent dinner in there.. you are eating a very small amount of food.. If you…

I threw out the scale and weigh in with my nutritionist once every 3 weeks.. I do much better this way.. I go by how I feel and not by a number in front of me every day :)

Definitely no need to attack but it is also import to remember a couple of things.. one is that no one is every entirely shore of what the human body does and how it works.. so really anyone can argue any point but here is my 2 cents.. Myth 1 - It is never healthy to drink an excessive amount of water but our body needs…

we always bake our bacon. We use a cookie drying rack on top of a baking sheet.. bake at 350 for about 30 minutes.. all the fat lands in the cooke sheet.. way better than frying. We keep ours frozen until just before we cooke it and drop it in water for about 30 miunutes while it is still in the package or bag and leave it…

I just looked up the ingredients and I thought it was going to be worse than it was.. basically milk, milk fat, and salt as a preservative.. not much else to it.

we do ours 3 ways.. all use it peeled and cubed 1. soup.. cook squash (I do it in the microwave) cook in chicken stock witch carrots and any other veggies you want until tender add cinnamon, salt, peper garlic... puree, add a little milk and serve.. 2. toss with a little olive oil and season salt, bake until tender 3. toss…

my nutritionist always reminds me that you don't have to limit breakfast to "breakfast food" I will often do a tuna sandwich or as someone else said.. leftovers. I also LOVE cereal

1 cup(US) = 236.588 ml Not sure if that helps.. but I tried :)

I would say get out those old pictures and hang them up on the fridge so you can see them everytime you go to cheat

I had mirena in for a little over a month.. I was sick as a dog and ended up in the hospital where it was removed.. I felt better imediately. Mirena releases hormones into your system and my body was not a fan of that :) The good thing about it is that it comes out as quickly as it goes in so if you are having any problems…

Pasta sauce in gneneral is pretty healthy.. you can leave out or adjust to your likes and dislikes.. this one makes 6 servings.. and is very easy... Ingredients 1 pound lean ground beef 1 1/3 (6 ounce) cans tomato paste 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce 1 (1 ounce) package dry onion soup mix 1 cup water 1/4 tablespoon dried…

My advice would be to make your own bars.. The packaged ones are so high in crap that they can more than likely cancel out the good. Here is a recipe I use and I just vary up the ingredients depending on my mood and my kids (15 and 4) love them!! Serves 6 Time 20-25 minutes 1 cup Fiber one Cereal 2tbsp. honey 3/4 cup…

I alway serve some raw veggies with ranch dressing to my 4 year old and he LOVES it.. he loves to dip anything in anything (and I mean anything..lol) so maybe some sauces, and he really loves to help, so that is also an angle. As for hiding stuff, mashed cauliflower instead of potatos, carrots in meatloaf, lasagne with…

quiche.. or frittatta or as my 4 year old calls it egg pie :) I make a huge one on sunday and eat it all week.. can vary the ingredients to have anything you want in it.. I use an old standby recipe which is just use equal parts egg and dairy.. so you can use egg beaters or regualr eggs, milk, whole, low fat, sour cream..…

Asparagas - a little olive oil, some balsamic and some garlic either grilled or sauted Broccoli and Cauliflower - steamed with some mrs. dash or oven roasted and then drizzle with balsamic..yummy carrots - we love those raw with some hummus or other dip peas - sorry , can't stomuch them but we oven roast brussel sprouts…

I am having the same sodium issues.. The biggest advice I can give you is to make stuff yourself.. it is hard not as easy but it truely the only way to reduce it... most manuafactures use it as a preservative so if it is processed it is loaded with salt. Some of my favotires... veggies and hummus (I make my own) Salsa is…

There are quite a few ways to make sandwiches work.. sandwich thins work as bread.. and are really low in carbs and high in fiber, also deli folds are good. You can do wraps (just read the label carefully on those) you can always do a chef salad?? easy and fast. Try not to keep to many snacks around, even if they are only…

Even more yummy and higher protein.. use soy beans instead of peas

not before.. just make sure you have some carbs after.. jiuce, fruit or whatever.. normally they bring snack but just make sure you are not wobbley before you leave. and great job for donating!!!!

I always keep a bag of 100 calorie popcorn in my desk and most days when the afternoon hits I will make it and put it into a bowl at my desk.. gives me something to munch on for that mindless eating thing we do :) Replaced all the chicken stock in the house to Low Sodium and all natural stuff as well Got rid of most of the…

bring a note book.. set it up ahead of time as a food jurnal, just like MFP and fill it in every day.. or even just diary what you eat. Make pits stops at a supermarket instead of a fast food place and then eat someplace scenic instead of a restaraunt. bring gum to keep you chewing while driving and a water bottle that is…

I totally agree.. you need to be eatting a bit more.. you are low on calories and protein.. so liv eit up girl.. eat more to loose more :)

I don't do artificial sweeteners.. I can't stand the way they taste and I have tried them all :( I have one cup of coffee a day and it has regular sugar in it.. I don't see it as a problem especially if it is only one cup and it is in the morning, as that is the best time to take in carbs.. I say, enjoy what you have and…

I would not say that drinking flavored water is bad for you.. flavored is better than none.. all the nutritionalists I have spoken too have said that you can replace one glass of water with a flavored drink be it crystal lite, mio or even diet soda.. but the majority should still be plain old water

I don't like in your house but I can tell you in my house.. just because I am trying to loose weight doesn't mean that I have to suffer through a separate meal.. every one needs to learn how to eat healty.. even the skinny folk :) We have a no holds bar meal on Sunday every week.. that is the day we toss the diet out the…

Try flavoring the water with crystal light or something for a few weeks and get your 8 glasses that way.. then taper off the crystal light. At that point your bosy will be so used to getting the 8 glasses you will be thirsty enough to drink plain water.
