  • I too drink about a good quart of green tea a day - no sugar but do enjoy it with fresh squeezed lemon or lime juice. Love it. I no longer drink coffee - so this is a nice addition to my liquid intake. I think the only concern would be the caffeine intake - Maybe use a decaffeinated green tea if you want to drink more??…

  • Good for you! My 1 year anniversary was Jan 20th, 2012. Feels great to be a non-smoker! Mine is wine. I've cut out beer and have just about 1-2 cups of coffee a week now (just cause I love the taste)... but my wine is gonna be a hard one.

  • Agreed - sorry I was quick to condemn. It's true - we are all on different journeys... I'll be more mindful of that. Thanks.
    in What do your meals look like (show me pictures).... Comment by Innerbeauty31 March 2013
  • Agreed. Looks like nothing I'd want to add to my food plan - my sugars would skyrocket. Very unhealthy.

  • I made them this morning... loved the slight "banana bread" flavor... and they are not sweet either. Like a healthy bowl of oatmeal! :) Glad you enjoy your banana's too... all in moderation of course :)
    in Healthy Breakfast Oat Muffins (No flour) YUM!! Comment by Innerbeauty31 March 2013
  • Doing my own research...and found these are the TOP 5 worst foods to eat. Interesting... I don't see banana's anywhere on this list.. or any other list. Doughnuts Doughnuts are fried, full of sugar and white flour and most all varieties contain trans fat. Store-bought doughnuts are made up of about 35 percent to 40 percent…

  • by the way, what ARE the 5 worst foods that you say are so bad to eat? And yes... duh, bananas have sugar in them. I'm not an idiot - however, the sugars are natural - not REFINED.

  • Personal opinion... Sugar is worse. So enjoy a banana as sweetener.

    in How do I eat ENOUGH calories? Comment by Innerbeauty31 March 2013
  • I'd go with good healthy full-calorie foods - don't buy anything with the word "Diet or low fat" on it. Eat meats, eggs, Avocados, nuts, and lots of fresh veggies! Cut out the more processed foods - and pack small meals in advance -so you can grab-n-go. If you're in a rut... Look up meal ideas - such as…
    in How do I eat ENOUGH calories? Comment by Innerbeauty31 March 2013
  • humm.. thanks people! I will measure again - I did 2 weeks ago (ish). My boyfriend patted my *kitten* this morning and said, "wow babe... your *kitten* is firming up! bubble butt! love it! Whatever you're doing, you're toning!" And that was purely out of the blue... so I'm guessing I'm not seeing it as much as it is…

  • Weird thing - BMI doesn't take into account for our different body types. For example - My sister and I are about the same height. Our builds are WAY different though. She wears a size 8 jeans at 105lbs. I wear a size 8 jeans at 140lbs. My BMI suggests I should weigh around 110-115lbs. For me - that'd be a size ZERO! And…

  • I do the Elliptical - and I can feel my muscles the next day, for sure! I always amp it up just a tad more each time... so I'm not getting settled into one setting. I appreciate the idea of doing what works for me... and what I enjoy. Thanks for your input! Live a little. You're fine. :)

  • AzChelle - maybe after I get a job, I'll be in more of a position to hire the trainer. But, I really do wanna! I know it'd help keep me on track - mainly with the strength training.
