To my knowledge "pentype" not being an eGo fat batt type, but the genuine old style "pen" were not that hot either. The reason I advise people to stay away from cigarette look alikes is that countlessly I have heard stories of "e-ciggs don't work, they arn't very strong, and it didn't last long enough" and when I ask "Well…

Just another poster who quit with an e-cig. My quit date was 9-10-11, been free and clear since. If traditional methods fail you then an e-cig might be worth at least exploring the idea of. My tip is stay away from cig-look-alikes if you're a more moderate or heavy smoker trying to kick the habit. I can only imagine they…

My personal go to- A can of seltzer water- maybe black cherry, raspberry lime, there's ton to pick from, some squirts of liquid sweet leaf stevia and a generous splash of lemon juice. Mix & yum. No calorie bubbles.

Can't blame people for going a little nutty over 3+ month plateaus. My body has been very "You shall not pass" with weight loss. True nonetheless expecting instantaneous or easy results is just silly.

As can be diabetes, and a number of other ailments. That's no excuse not to do anything about it or try to prevent it.

My ideal is about 125. Even 130 would be perfectly fine. Larger frame, curvy figure anyways. When I loose weight I essentially becomes boobs and butt and I would rather not lose either as I'm a fan of my assets.

Agreed. Sweetleaf makes a very good brand of Stevia, that to my knowledge is the most natural based Stevia extract. Sometimes you can find small sample bottles. I prefer the liquid, 60ml runs about 8-11 dollars a bottle depending on where you purchase. It also comes in some coffee friendly flavors like vanilla creme,…

High quality Stevia isn't replacing one chemical for another. The catch is, it will probubly cost you an arm and a leg. The brand I try to always have on hand is liquid stevia drops made by Sweetleaf. It's all natural. I add it to teas and various 0 calorie drinks with lemon that need some sweetness to balance the sour…

I didn't claim my perspective as fact. If I had I could understand the criticism, but I did not.

Respecting other people's opinions before sharing mine isn't good enough for you? Too Bad.

Have you tried Sweet-leaf Liquid Sweetener? It's not as common on the market. Often times when people get snarky about the fact some of us don't want to pump artificial chemicals in our bodies, and use the "well some of the most toxic substances known to man are 100% natural" yes, often after a lot of processing with a few…

I eat salad almost every single day. Some Maple Grove is quite good.However the "fat free" Wasabi Dijon was a big disappointment. I know that "fat free" often adds sugar, but it almost tastes like they just added extra sugar and completely forgot the Wasabi. I also like Cape-Cod brand dressings, particularly the sweet and…

Me personally, I don't think artificial sweeteners are 100% safe. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion there. For me the keyword is artificial meaning it is fake, chemical, unnatural and with recent new additions to the sugar free fight, unnecessary. It seems to be squeezed into so much with little options to avoid it…

It's a matter of limiting yourself, rethinking how you perceive the take away. I may have take away or fast food once or twice a month at most. My crutch is Chinese food, steamed pork dumplings or sushi. Sushi I don't beat myself over so much since the raw fish is so good for you. Educating yourself on nutrition helps, a…

I actually had one of those 1100 burns today. I pumped out about 1.5 hours at the gym. 30 min jog, 20 min elliptical, then 35 min weights. However much of my day was running around doing errands, walking. A couple hours of walking can put you in that 800-1000 zone after a really good workout. When it happens to me it's…

I can already tell just the food library alone is making me much happier. Now recipes, they'll get kinda tricky. I do cook my own a lot and I imagine transferring meals might be a hassle. Thanks for the warm welcome!
