hi punky! I don't have children, but my schedule is very similar. I start my day at 5:30 am and get home around 10PM. I am armed with my mini cooler everyday with all my meals packed in it. I do my food shopping and meal prep for the week on Sundays and grab and go from the fridge to pack my cooler. Stick with lean…

haa haa, oddly enough, i just had a fart conversation this morning. I will admit... I am 31 yrs old and I STILL think farts are funny. I don't know... just go with it, it's a natural occurance. :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

It's not always easy, but I do food shopping and all prep and cooking on Sundays for the week. Wash and cut veggies, marinate and grill meats, and keep everything in a grab and go state in my fridge. Then, the night before, I plan my meals and pack them in a cooler. Sometimes it gets old, but to stay focused, you must…

Why is it that the exercise diary doensn't show calories burned with Strength Training? Am I doing somehing wrong? I added a "strength Training" exercise to my cardiovascular exercise diary and input the calories burned based on my heart rate monitor there. Am I a cheater? :glasses:

When I find something on the menu, I ask how it is prepared. You'd be surprised at what they do. For example, the Cheesecake Factory prepares their Turkey Burgers with Butter and Heavy Cream! YUCK I do my best to order no sauces, and request that my fish (or what ever your choice) is prepared with out butter or oil.…

Good Afternoon All. For those that celebrate, Happy Easter. I found this article on MSN today and thought I'd share. Have a Great Day Everone! Q: I normally eat healthy foods but sometimes I’m hit by cravings. I end up succumbing to the candy and fattening foods that I know I shouldn’t have. Why is this and what can I do…

Many thanks for all of your advice and resource information. I'm really enjoying myself here. No offense taken, I just think my post was misunderstood. I am looking for the best way to track unkonwn nutrition facts. In the long run, I want to be able to see my patterns and how my progress is affected, if at all. TRUST ME -…

How do i account for a meal that I am not aware of it's nutrition information? I was in a rush yesterday and ate 1/2 grilled chicken curry wrap. I'm not sure how they prepared the curry however I'm more than sure it contained oil. Tonight is a friend's birthday and I have no idea of the nutrition information of the food…

Maybe using those days to take a walk or bike ride instead of doing the tapes. OR you can do the tom saywer thing and con him into doing it with you! Then it's like when I get on the dancefloor; a contest to see who can do the craziest moves. best of luck to you!

Love It! I'm going to spread it around. Have a fantastic day

I have tried a cleanse, and was ok... I had a lot of gas, but everything else seemed normal. I was able to function and go to work. I too was scared and thought I would have to take off work and spend my days in the lav. The Dr.Natura seems a little more intese. I'd be curious to know if anyone else has tried this as I…

Get it out of the house! Not your house? Stay positive. Think thin! Drink coffee or tea or water.

breakfast is the most important meal of the day, because it is your recovery from an appoximately an 8 hour fasting. While you are sleeping you are fasting. Breakfast gives you the foundation for energy for the day. How are you preparing breakfast? A whole egg is only 80 caloires, 5g fat. If you cut out the sausage and…

mine is always over too. I have read that the baisc rule of thumb is average women need .8 g of protein per pound of body weight. Active women need 1g per pound. Everyone is different and only YOU really know what works for you. Try different tweaks to see what works for you. Most important is to stay balanced and not…

ABSOLUTLEY! There are many different variables in which the night time cravings are caused, but it's all psychological! In my experiences, our lives are revolved around food; celebrations, dates, social meetings, events, etc... Food gives us comfort. It is almost imbedded into our brains that things we do usually revolve…

Hi Viv: Just wanted to tell you that you hit the nail on the head! I am not a certified nutrionist, nor a doctor, but took control of my health and fitness and always learning. Excellent post! Stay positive, stay focused and have a great day! Bray Doherty
