This is not a shock to me. I am fully aware that everyone is different and preferences are vast. I guess I just have sympathy for those who's health depends on keeping their sugar consumption low because it's added to nearly everything. Pickles, dressings, sauces...etc. For those who need to keep their sugar intake to a…

It's just a topic of discussion. It's meant to be thought-provoking. As in, can I do more to prevent illness than just get vaccinated? Is there perhaps a better option for ME to prevent illness than the vaccination?

I didn't question who's responsibility it is, I asked WHY do they put it in there in the first place? I, personally don't find it any tastier with or without it. I do think it makes it more difficult for those who limit their sugar intake (because of health issues or whatever reason) to do so. I'd much rather have a piece…

Speaking of sugar, alcohol and health... http://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-11253/why-you-probably-dont-need-a-flu-shot.html 3. Reduce alcohol and sugar consumption. Even moderate alcohol consumption suppresses the central nervous system, and therefore your immune system. Consuming too much sugar can suppress the immune system…

What is the definition of sugar-phobe?

I don't think it's that some sugar is "good" while others are "bad". I think it's more of it's a lot harder to eat too much sugar from fruit than it is to eat too much sugar from oreos & snickers bars. Also, it IS a little frustrating that sugar is added to so many foods unnecessarily. For example, look at spaghetti sauces…

WOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!! Finally back to CF today :happy: :happy: :happy: WOD “Tabata Something Else” Complete 32 intervals of 20 seconds of work followed by ten seconds of rest where the first 8 intervals are pull-ups, the second 8 are push-ups, the third 8 intervals are sit-ups, and finally, the last 8 intervals…

OP, there are some people that are so deeply rooted in their beliefs that a calorie is a calorie is a calorie and weight loss is simply "calories in vs. calories out" that they won't just to skip over this post, but instead will make a complete mockery of it. I didn't watch the video. No need to. I understand that the food…

:mad: Angry that I haven't been able to WOD since last Monday. Combination of very sore shoulder and being out of town. I did go to a smash party at my box yesterday and then gingerly worked on my handstands and negative pull-ups, but I'm scared to really test the shoulder out :cry: Hoping to be posting here again very…

Your warm-up is killing me! LOL! Thrusters in a warm-up???!!! Yikes!!!! Otherwise, I love WODs that have running sprinkled in all over them :)

I would use the real thing. It's only once a week, and I would limit (or eliminate) other sweet treats on that day.

True, when first starting out it takes a while to get your hunger stabilized. :)

If you are eating plenty of healthy fat, and low(ish) carb, your blood sugar shouldn't spike and eating that often is no longer necessary.

You may find this site helpful: http://www.crossfit.com/cf-info/faq.html The girls' names are typically benchmark wods (meaning they are wods that you can do every month or two or six to see how much progress you've made).

Everyone is different, so after a couple of weeks, you may find that you run better on 75g of carbs, or 125... make small adjustments every 2-3 weeks to see what works best for you.

This is. Moderate protein. If you're going low-carb, you need high fat for energy. Also, this is just a personal thing, but I try not to eat fruit alone as a snack. I try to balance all meals (a snack is a mini-meal) with some fat, protein and carb.

Oh thank goodness! I haven't been drinking ANY water since "going paleo", but now that this product is available, I can start drinking water again.

Brilliant!!!!

Call me crazy, but i think those "senses" that are "simply disengaged" are part of your body's natural survival???!!! Eating is pretty essential to life, no? I mean, of course you CAN live off of liquid diets (people in comas...etc. do it), but why on earth would you want to train your body NOT to function properly if you…

You're doing something brand new. It will take your body some time to adjust. 2 weeks is not long enough to know any real results yet. Also, if you're hungry, eat! Food is fuel your body needs to function. You can't ask it to start doing more and not give it any more fuel to do it with. Do you track your calorie burns on…
