Fitness blender on youtube has great arm videos and some of them are quick.

Hi! I have RA and it does affect my work outs. I walk and do pilates, anything thats easier on the joints. Some days I feel really exhausted and I hurt so I just skip the workout, although the exercise does help with the symptoms.

Have you tried getting steroid shots directly into the foot? It sounds bad but they put lidocaine in with the steroid to ease the pain. You can't do it very often but it works very well. You should also be sleeping in a plantar fasciitis foot splint at at night They have many different kinds but spend a little more money…

Actually ,carrots get darker when you cook them because more carotene is being released. Soybeans must be cooked to make their protein available so they can be absorbed by the human body. Vitamin C can be affected by heat from cooking so citrus fuit shouldn't be cooked. The difference between raw and cooked oatmeal is only…

My grandma did this too! Not particularly healthy but I was thin then, go figure!

Maybe have your blood sugar tested for a start, just to be on the safe side. Try eating small high protein snacks between meals and yeah, with your added exercise maybe you should eat a few more calories.

I wouldn't have said you were rude but saying please never hurts. It's interesting that he was rude enough to ignore the posted sign but called you out for not saying please!

I freeze it and then thaw when I need it.

I am vegetarian and diabetic and I wouldn't dream of keeping my carbs that low. Carbs are ok and necessary. I eat my daily allotment of carbs- 45 per meal and 15-30 for 2 snacks. I also eat a minimum of protein and I lose weight just fine. The low carb thing isn't really necessary to losing weight so relax a bit and enjoy…

Why does being a vegetarian make it difficult to eat healthy and reach your calorie ? Your boyfriend probably thinks meat = protein so he's really saying is you more protein in your diet.

I'm pesce/vegetarian! Feel free to add me!

Yes, anti-depressants will make you gain weight. Will being off of it help you lose weight? Maybe. To lose weight we must eat fewer calories, being off the celexa may make this easier to do but unfortunately it's just not magic. You have to work hard to lose the weight but it will come off. Good luck!

Awesome!

You can make baba ganoush, eggplant parmesan, and all sorts of different things. Google some recipes!

I don't have a set shopping list because I like to take advantage of store sales. I do get basics twice a month: potatoes, bread, milk, eggs, flour etc. There is a website called Poor Girl Eats Well, she sets up shopping cart lists to take advantage of sales and basics. Maybe this could help you.

I'm vegetarian and eat lots of carbs and still lose weight. Calories count. If you think you would feel better with more protein then eat some even if you have to learn to cook a bit. A couple of ounces of store- bought roasted chicken would be an easy fix.

I love aldi"s - yesterday I bought 3 lbs of clementines for $1!

I'll be 59 in a couple weeks and would love to lose 40lbs in 40 weeks! Count me in!

I live in a western big MEAT state and I know exactly how you feel. Sigh.
