Half a turkey breast cut into 3/4 inch pieces then brown in a pan in olive oil. Add 32 oz. fat free chicken broth 1 cup of brown rice and 8 oz. frozen mixed vegetables. Season to Taste,. 1 and 1/2 cups are a serving around 350 calories.

I think it might have the house full of teenage girls.:laugh: All through my forties I would come home and eat dinner than go to my room and watch TV. I found it was easier than trying to apologize for saying the wrong thing and causing all sorts of tears. That sedentary life style and the fact that I was knocking on 350…

I also have a stationary bike. About three weeks ago I started using dumbbells while riding This helps me get my heart rate up on my monitor. This allows me to put a 1/2 hour on my bike at 80% of my target heart rate. I do this twice a day in the morning and evening. Since I have been using the dumbbells I lost 1 pound in…

So I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I spend a whole month logging everything I put in my mouth I return to the doctor and she asks how things are going and I proceed to tell her I lost 16 pounds in 4 weeks. At that point she is ecstatic at my progress. I then tell her about the previous Saturday night Bowling night…

at 19 years old your Max target heart rate is 201 if you can run at 80% of your max target for 40 minutes you are in good shape. The truth is that the more physically fit you are the less calories you will burn during a given work out.

So based on this answer Is it possible to subtract the total daily fiber intake from the total carbohydrate. Or....say for lunch I eat four items that have 4 grams of fiber each and 6 grams of carbohydrate each, could I then subtract 16 grams of carbs from the 24? Another words is this cumulative,all day,per meal or just…

Lynn that was the reason I asked. I notice that if I exercise and then take my readings they can be 10-20% lower. I was diagnosed with T2 at the end of January and I have been taking my BG levels at different times through out the day. I went through the first 150 test strips and went to buy more before my prescription was…

Thanks every one for your input, it pretty much was what I hoped to hear. As you can imagine my middle aged hugely overweight body is already wondering what the heck I'm doing to it. I think I am going to stay with the 1/2 hour bike rides twice a day when I am able, and not worry to much about whether it falls in that two…

I 'm sure there is a food out there I don't like. unfortunately I have not found it yet. That's why I'm here!:laugh:

Our hospital has a diabetic class taught by a registered diabetic instructor and a Registered dietitian. The first group class was two hours of instruction on reading food labels. I noticed that my local park district has a free class on the same subject. I pay attention to the food labels on every thing we buy. But I…

Herat rate is a good judge of intensity 50-60% of your target heart rate would be low intensity 70-80% of your target would be moderate intensity? I think your fitness level would dictate what you consider low medium or high? I know I do a half hour twice a day and shoot to get my heart rate up to 75% of my target for…
