I use to drink every weekend in high school and had no problems, now i get sick on a mikes hard. I figured it was all the sugar and the fact eat so little of it now. All types of alcohol has sugar in it and it might be the spikes in blood sugar? Or your tolerance has lowered.

Are you drinking at least 8 glasses of water and 5 servings of fruits and veggies? Stay away from processed foods, watch your sodium and lower your carbs. Try not to eat to many after 3 or so and eat lean protein and veggies for dinner. I Joined a gym in october and went 5 days a week for 6 months and never lost a pound! I…

I can uderstand how HRM are not perfect, but they are as close as most people can get.

I totally know what you mean. You have to force yourslef to go the first few times but after that it will become part of your routine and you will want to do it. I would suggest doing the 30 day shred. You will get good results, it is only 20 minutes and you can do it at home. Start there and see how you feel. Then maybe…

They are going to make their play areas to suite the customer, same with the food! If the customer doesn't use the video games and doesn't eat the nasty burgers they wouldn't have them, simple supply and demand.

same questions, why no carrots?

It takes months to gain/loose muscle, and 3500 calories to burn a pound of fat. In a day you did neither of these. By guess is your body was retaining water to aide in muscle repair, when you gave it a break it released the water. I also do the 30 day shred and walk afterwards for about 40 minutes. the turbo jam just might…

It has cafeine, calorie free, and a way to drink water, so yes it can help you loose by filling you up, keepign you hydrated, and giving you a slight boost which might mean you work out instead of sitting on the couch.

Welcome! I am seeing a doctor next week becasue I think I have PCOS. I started withthe iPhone app over a year ago but never stuck with it. In the last few weeks I have commited to change and am happy with the direction I am headed.

My HRM says I burn around 200.

I usually bring wraps but keep the contents separate until it is time to eat and wrapping the tortilla in plastic wrap. Today I made a curry chicken salad with half a serving of crasins, half a serving of cashews, some mayo, onion, and curry powder, then topped with lettuce, it was great!

From what I have heard it is the iron. I use to vomit on my way to school every morning becasue of it! I have to take them with quite a bit of food at lunch and it works out fine

Friends are one of those things you don't realize how importnat they are untill they are gone. I lost a lot of friends when i first started dating my boyfirend, 4 years later we are still going strong but I miss my ex-best friend terribly. We are both so different now but it is important to have a females around!

Count everything! Some fruits have a decent amount of sugar and carbs. Nuts, nut butters, protein shakes, yogurt, chicken, are all good ways to get in calories. Also, what are using to track your calories? Don't trust machines or the database on here, they tend to over estimate calories. You may not need to eat so much in…

bump! i think i have all the stuff on hand to!

i love new friends!

Completed L1D2 last night. I am not buring very many calories, only 160 according to the HRM, i need to push myself more! During the work out my feet hurt the most! How is everyone doing the butkicks? The most painful part for me is the knee bend lunges? i think that is what she calls them, , my knees feel like they are…

This site over estimates calories by quite a bit. I have a HRM and was amazed i burned about half of what the treadmill said and 2/3 of what the database said. I would trust the Kinnect more becasue 127 in 22 minutes is reasonable, 332 in 30 is a lot!

edamame beans! greek yogurk, cheese, Quron products?

I made a new item for it and go off of my HRM.

i tend to burn the most calories walking uphills in the outdoors.

Even though I am terrible at loggin during the weekend, it helps to realize how many calories are in they things you binge on. Now that I have realized just how bad they are, i have started to binge a lot less! I always have to ask my self is this one night of junk really worth it in the long run?

go to the subway website, they have the nutrition for everything. There might be some things in the database but it is hard to say how accurate it is.

I would suggest upping your carbs in the morning and limiting them in the afternoon. For breakfast I usually aime for 400 calories and have an egg on a bagel thin with as much lettuce as I can fit and eat a serving of fruit when I first get to work. I know the Special K protein shakes are tempting but I honestly do not…

I prefer the Almond because it has less carbs and calories. It has a nutty, creamy flavor which is a nice change from milk. It is about 2 bucks a carton in Alaska so it is probly cheaper in the states, try it out!

I had been planning on starting Monday anyways! This is perfect. I did it twice last week using a resistance band and modified the part you do with your arms. I was still super sore. I think I am going to get weights as well though.

Fairbanks, Alaska!

Lightly active will give you more calories. Do you feel like you are getting your heart rate up and you need more calories?
