  • Right now, I'm in a training class 4x a week using kettlebells, TRX and medicine balls. Awesome strength training with a good cardio component. I should add on some other activity for 2 other days, but haven't figured out what that is yet.
    in what kind exercises routine are u doing??? Comment by sebenza512 February 2015
  • This is a great question! I've been doing a combo kettlebell and TRX training for a few months and was looking for a way to log that. My trainer suggested 450 calories for 60 minutes of work. That would be an average, since LOE for each training session changes daily.

  • Congratulations on deciding to quit! I smoked for almost 30 years before I quit almost 11 years ago. I used the patches (step down) and I joined Quitnet. That is an online support site for people who are quitting. I think the thing that really got me through the worst of quitting was the Daily Pledge -- a new thread every…

  • Definitely keeping this recipe to try! I'm not a huge fan of veggie burgers but this looks like it will have all kinds of flavor. Thanks for sharing!

  • Sometimes we have to be OK for the occasional Not Smart Calories. I think that if you have a real Coke on occasion, and record it, that should be fine. I know I get into trouble when I beat myself up over not hitting my plan for the day. It is almost as if I give myself permission to just eat foolishly the rest of the day.…

  • Is yogurt also out for you? Greek yogurt with blueberries and a sprinkle of Kashi is one of my favorite breakfasts in the world.

  • This Braised Cod recipe is one of my favorites: http://crankingkitchen.wordpress.com/2013/02/11/braised-cod/ It is tastiest with the butter, but you can cut that out and just not have as much braising juice. The juice is good on brown rice or whatever veggies you are having.

  • Land O Lakes makes a Light Whipped Cream and a Sugar Free Whipped Cream (both from aerosol cans) that could work. 2 Tbls is less than 20 cals depending upon which you choose. No idea if these will freeze, but no idea why they wouldn't. I would probably try this before the Cool Whip -- as willstr says, it isn't a substitute…

  • I plan on logging for long while. I used to log on another site (losing 40lbs in the process) and fell off of the wagon during a plateau. Just joined here to try again -- the logging was really helpful to show me what I really ate so calories were better managed. So I'm finishing my first of many weeks here and could use…
