have you thought about juicing? It is amazing how much leaft greens you can get into a jucier, add an apple and some lemon and you will never know

Yeap!

frozen fruit to mix with the yogurt, the kashi go lean crunch cereal is good with almond milk, almonds, baby carrots

you can get anything with out a tortilla. my dad is a low carber and would always order two chicken tacos with out the taco. it was just lettuce, cheese, chicken and whatever else they put in it.

I don;t work out in the morning, but you should try to drink some OJ or some fruit. The sugar with help to get you going.

womens health and clean eating

I love Jillians videos! 10 bucks each and you can use them unlimited. I also walk my dog everyday. They say they need 40 minutes a day so I feel obligated to do it for her health

I don't know what the calories are but I love Qudoba. I bet if you got something with out a tortilla it would be healthy. You can't go wrong with beans and meat. There ingridents are simple aswell.

Going over on protein and fiber are good. Both are set pretty low on here. A lot of people, inclusing myself set the ratios to 40/30/30 for carbs protein and fat. Protein keeps you fuller longer and fiber helps regulate your blood sugar, bioth being really good things

Haha, yes. When he is out jogging with the pink sweat band. Love it!

The Allstate commercials are so funny lately!! I am swithing my car insurance and they were the first people I called, they also happen to be cheaper.

I took a B-complex, but I just recently listend to a podcast by the Nutrition Diva called Quick and Dirty Tips and she basically said it is an extreme overdose and you don't need them. I think the title of the podcast is the truth about B-vitamins or something like that.

most people say stop 2 hours before bed so you have time to digest before sleeping.

your diary looks great, sugar is not a concern if it comes from fruit, which you don't seem to have a lot of. I would say kick the yoplait, it is so processed! Opt for a greek yogurt with ingredients you recognize. The add some fruit and stevia to sweeten it up. Your protein is amazing, I would suggest changing your ratios…

love new friends

the idea is 2 hours before bed to give your body time to digest, so for each person it might be different. You might try bumping up your calories by 200 and see if that helps. you may be eating to little.

The myth is that you don't gain muscle in a matter of weeks, it is more like months!!!! And the myth is very true. The other thing is muscle does not weight more then fat. A pound of muscle weights the same as a pound of fat. Muscle is more dense then fat so it takes up less room per pound, that is why people say to take…

I have wondered about this, I use to make Fiber One muffins and the blue things tasted like nerds!

when you watch TV and have no urge to snack when you open the fridge and see everything is healthy when your dog recognizes your work out clothes and gets excited for her walk ( she has trimed up a bit aswell) when you grocery bill has shrunk due to cutting out boxed food and you only spend your time in two sections of the…

1.Spend less time on this site during work 2. Get more sleep 3. Stop caring about what other people think and comparing myself to them

DOGS! cats are such brats, the best cats act like dogs, you all know it is true!

There are definately two sides to beign a fat child. For many kids their parents just don't care. When I was younger my parents tried very hard to help me lose weight, but my attraction to food was so strong I would sneak it! I have also had PCOS since I was very young which did not help things. If the parents don't say…

I can think of so many times my grandfather sitting me down to talk about my weight. When I think back on it, he was trying to help but it was terrible. Did her really think I wanted to be like this?

yeah, another alaskan. I have a taylor scale I got from Freds, it doesn't do the whole water weight thing, when you think about it though, how would it know that stuff just by you stepping on it? I would say stay simple and read reviews on Amazon. I usually take 3 readings when I way in to get a good idea.

you seem to be eating a lot of processed carbs and limited fruit and veg. Things like pretzels are useless calories. try replacing them with almonds. the zone bars are very processed, you would be better off with an apple and peanut/almond butter. I would also recommend uping veggies, try making some carrot sticks, bell…

turkey bacon is gross, look at what it is made of! the OP is right, if you look at calories per gram, real bacon is much better, they make the slices thin and full of turkey byproduct so they seem to be less calories. the only ingredient should be pork, think about it! You may lose weight eating crap like turkey bacon and…

You should get a couple new things so you feel nice, but nothign to expensive. I recently brough stuff to a consignment shop so I don't feel as bad for wasting money. I would also suggest buying some things there.

It is such a catch 22. If you over eat you are judge and if you are eating healthy people don't take you seriously. I turned down fast food the other day and my coworker was a bit surpried. Yeah i am fat but I have never eat Mcdonalds and don't plan to start now.

Have you tried greek yogurt? I buy it in single serving cups and portion out a serving of frozen fruit. I then let the fruit thaw over night and mix it together. You could also add apples with peanut butter, super filling! Maybe you should try a different cereal? I use the Kashi go lean crunch with coconut milk and half a…
