I am happy to say that I can cook. And after reading your post I came up with a couple ideas that I hope help you out. 1) Take it slow to start. Rushing into a complex meal right from the get go will leave you with some burned food or undercooked food while you are trying to manage everything at once. Find a couple recipes…

Hey there, good luck on the weight loss. One thing that you can take some comfort in is that each calorie you burn is added into your daily allotment, at the same time you are given additional protein, carbs, sugars, pretty much extra of everything except sodium (that will never change).

For example we can both pick up the same 10lb kettle bell and curl it 10 times. If you curl your kettle bell 10 times and it only takes you 20 seconds,…

My goal has been to burn 1200 or more every work out. As a heavier guy I found that I could do it in just over an hour. This week according to my…

Hey Mamahafner! Gotta tell ya that you are doing well so far. It's not an easy change to make and I'm glad to see that you are starting this up with us! The first thing I want to find out is how many calories is it alloting you everyday? If it's 1200 you have to eat all of those calories just because that is the absolute…

No worries, you only live once... so the occasional off day won't destroy everything you do.... just make sure you are conscious of it and record it on your journal. If you see it happening too often the visual of seeing "If you keep eating like this you will be X number of lbs in 5 weeks" is usually enough to set things…
