I disagree with your whole premise. Families aren't perfect, but blood is thicker than frozen chicken breasts. If you communicate honestly with your family I have every confidence they would support you and leave your healthy food alone. If not, it speaks to some doubt they have about the sincerity of your journey. It…

Don't eat any of the bread at the table and don't order anything that comes with pasta. You'll be fine.

Wall-E, Technically you are correct, that is an NSV moment. But we're really going for more hilarious things in this post. I tried to find a way to make crossing the monkey bars funny. I couldn't do it.

LOL. But seriously people, a shot is 1.5 ounces, not one. So 19 1oz drinks is really like 12-13 real drinks. Know what that's called? Breakfast.

Keep an eye out for a personal trainer at your gym that looks like what you want to look like. Then see how they interact with their client. Maybe ask for quick help on something in particular and if you feel comfortable with them, spring the "you're hired!" on 'em.

I have had mine for a month and it is accurate within a tenth mile after I walk/run 5 miles. 1. On the website, in device settings, ensure that you have the tracker set to "non-dominant hand" and that you are wearing it on your non-dominant hand. 2. Calibrate. Enter your own values for your stride lengths. As way of…

Obesity is a disease people. Like a lot of things: Lazy is a disease Ignorant is a disease Overeating is a disease Couch Potato is a disease Driving loops in parking lots for the best spot is a disease Taking the elevator instead of the stairs is a disease And Trying to ensure that no one feels like anything is "their…

Tip: make one meal of the day a HUGE bowl of leafy greens with grilled chicken (or salmon) and add avocado for healthy fat. Use salsa instead of salad dressing. Everyone has something that works for them. This keeps me full during the heart of the day when I am most hungry. Good Luck!

nip this in the bud* Meaning Put a stop to something while it is still in its early development. Origin This phrase derives from the de-budding of plants. The earlier form of the phrase was 'nip in the bloom' and this is cited in Henry Chettle's romance Piers Plainnes Seaven Yeres Prentiship, 1595: "Extinguish these fond…

Alcohol dehydrates you. Are the weight gains in the morning? If you got drunk again, and then weighed yourself in the AM, I bet you'd be lighter. This doesn't mean drink. It means drinking shows illusionary weight-loss.

@Spinderella yeah, that's gone. :)

Ronrob's abs picture is making me queasy. I'm not against people who need to lose weight. But if you are making your profile picture your abs, and they look like cheese, maybe you should put on a shirt. No. You definitely need to put on a shirt.

You never stop trying. You don't ever completely move on. At some point though, you break up.

That chicken pene sounds pretty great right now.

Put my forehead against her forehead and stare wide-eyed until she blinked first (I have pretty eyes). Then say, "I think that pretty much settles it."

If buying a training session isn't an option, start doing squats and get on the row machine. The row machine is probably the most underused piece of machinery in the gym, but might be the greatest full body workout exercise you can do. And because you likely have never used it before it'll blast your plateau into…

Grey Goose on the rocks with a lime. During summer memosas and vodka-orange juices seem popular. But orange juice is very high in calories and sugar. If you drink either of these beverages use water with a splash of OJ (or half water half OJ at most).

Eat half of the calories you've earned. This is a good reward for exercising and you will still lose more weight. Double win.

I am wearing the Flex as I type and wanted to remedy some misconceptions. 1) The Fitbit Flex and website assumes you are alive and breathing even when you take the flex off. This means that you are burning calories all day, and the Flex accounts for those calories. For instance, if you are 25 years old, female, and…

I see your problem: not only are you missing a workout, your consuming calories you normally wouldn't so you see social gatherings as a double-whammy. I assume you'd go out more if it was just the food and drinks--if you could get your workout in before tearing up the town. The solution is simple: just do it. Stay up late…

Isn't a glass of wine only about 120 calories? Walk an extra 1500 steps during the day and enjoy your glass of wine. As far as sleeping peacefully... Count sheep jumping over glasses of wine.
