I have a chocolate addiction as well but find that I am more satisfied if I have it in liquid form. I will get a tall skinny mocha from Starbucks that tastes just like chocolate It's only 110 calories and it will last me a lot longer than a piece of chocolate. or a chocolate protein shake I like Wonderslim (you have to buy…

I have done bodypump several times and according to my chest strap heart rate monitor I burn between 400-500 in the class. Most people consider it Cardio although after doing it I feel like it is more strength training. I agree with my HRM and log those calories. Your heart rate is up the whole time and it is an hour long…

I eat some back if I am hungry. My goal is 1400 calories per day but sometimes I do a double workout and according to my pretty accurate chest strap heart rate monitor I can burn 800-900 during this time and it would be ridiculous if I didn't eat back ANY of those. If my body is telling me it's hungry then I eat and if not…

SOUP! I make a big batch that costs my about $5-6 and get a weeks lunch out of them.

I personally love the Y and joined a month ago. My amount of workouts have increased significantly. I don't know about you but I'm big into group classes because it's a great way to force me there for an hour and I actually enjoy them. I have taken the Body Pump and Spin classes and love them. I just tried out Body combat…

I like to take a really hot bath using some Detoxifying Bath Salts that I purchased from my regular massage place. It relieves stress, loosens up the muscles and helps remove toxins from the skin. My massage therapist also told me it helps with the lactic acid build-up caused from working out. This has significantly helped…

I can't really explain the whole TDEE thing because I don't use that concept. I did the same as you though by starting out with 1200 calories. It was enough for about 4 weeks then I became hungrier and have now upped them to 1400 and rarely go over that. I don't see the point with having to stick to an exact number every…

Thank you all! That was a lot of great ideas and I am looking forward to my class tonight.

I'm addicted as well and have the light box too. There is no way I am going to cancel because I feel like it is a treat getting to try out these random snacks. My first box had BBQ Pistacchios, Cinnamon Pretzel, Banoffee Pie and Pina Colada and I seriously loved them all. I just replaced a snack each day with one of these…

I like Swai fish because it doesn't smell or taste fishy. I am just not a big fish kind of person but I can flavor the swai however I want and it will just take on that flavor. I love to fry it until it is super crispy almost burnt because I don't like it to be too soft.

I have been so used to going 5-6 days a week and then I missed two days last week and freaked out. But actually as soon as I went back to the gym after 2 days off I worked out harder than ever. I think the 2 days off ended up helping me and I didn't realize it but maybe my body would like some more rest time than I allow.
-
I eat soup EVERYDAY for lunch and love it. I never get sick of it because I truly like it. I make a big batch on Sunday for the week and the flavors get better with time. It also only costs me like less than $8 and I get lunches for every day of the week. I use celery, carrots, potatoes, onions, garlic, tomato sauce,…

I personally don't think sexting and porn are the same. He was sexting with an actual woman. It could've been an old crush, a co-worker, neighbor..Watching porn is all fantasy because you are watching something that isn't going to happen in real life and you aren't doing anything with the porn stars. How do we know that he…

Honestly..you will never trust him again regardless because of the first incident. You do realize that you went snooping around through his internet history to find out what he was doing? If you really trusted him you wouldn't have done that. The trust is gone and once that is gone then it's over.

Same here!

I pretty much eat the same soup for lunch every single day because it is super low calorie and allows me to snack more throughout the day and late afternoon which is a big problem of mine. Whether I eat 100 or 500 calories for lunch I will always wants snacks in the afternoon so I go the low cal route. I do the P90X…

Hands down Zone Perfect. They are ALL good especially the chocolate mint. I've tried quest bars and there was maybe one or two that I liked but unfortunately there were many that I just could not down.

I personally love vodka and can't stand beer or wine. I would do a vodka with some crystal light in a flavor that you like. I would add some water too of course.

1. I workout in the morning especially if I know that I am going to a social event. I will take a body pump class and burn about 450-500 calories. 2. Eat light for the majority of the day. I will have egg whites with spinach for breakfast and maybe a soup for lunch. 3. Find small ways to cut on the calories. MOST places…

Make it work. I buy the International Delight Light Mocha Coffee and will pour myself a cup over ice for only 100 calories. I love chips so I buy the Smartfood Selects Hummus popped chips and they are only 100 calories a serving and each chip is normal sized and super crunchy so it doesn't feel like you are eating…

I do 1200 calories and it works for me...unless I workout really hard and feel hungry then I allow myself to eat them back. I also center my day around lots of snacks because I realize that I snack out of boredom at my job. I do not have this problem on the weekends. Breakfast- Egg whites and spinach omelette- 75 calories…

I turn all the lights on. I also use 2 alarm clocks because sometimes I am in some deep sleep during those times. So I will set my phone and regular alarm to go off at the same time which is quite annoying and will definitely wake you up. Also maybe now that it's getting colder you can take a step outside and maybe the…

Honestly if someone told me that I was obsessed, I would take that as a compliment. I'd rather be "obsessed" with trying to be healthy and losing weight and getting fit and having more energy than to be obsessed with going to buffets, partying and drinking all night, having hangovers and sleeping in all day. I also take it…

If you don't like to do the free weights then totally go for the BP class. I've done it twice so far and am ridiculously sore but it is helping me with my endurance and I find that it's an AMAZING class for a beginner. It teaches me discipline since I stay committed to the class for the full hour and there are other things…
