  • paleomg =I started this diet and lost 5 pounds the first week, I've come up with some good recipes too. The first few days are tough but I don't crave carbs or sugar anymore. Oook maybe I ate a twizzler during a particularly hormonal time of the month but still doing well.

  • You probably have fallen arches in your feet. Orthotics will help stabilize them so they don't roll. Custom ones are the best but you have to get them made by a doctor and they can get really expensive, so try some good quality store bought ones. And try sneakers with higher tops. Also the weight loss will help…

  • BIKRAM YOGA!!! Its a miracle. Don't knock it til you try it. It burns like 600 calories a session and isn't as hard as it looks but is a great work out from head to toe.

  • Eggs are healthy unless you need to watch your cholesterol. I like anjou pear slices with this goat cheese I recently discovered called Chavrie Purely Goat. Its creamy, spreadable, and because its whipped its like half the calories.

  • Avacados are awesome for you. Yes they are high in fat, and yes its "good" fat. There is something know as "essential fatty acids" which are necessary for certain functions in the body such as absorbing "fat soluble" vitamins such as A, D, E, and K. Your body can't naturally produce EFAs so we NEED to eat them. They are…

  • I have to say that soda is pretty much the worst thing you can put in your body and you should really try to cut it out, no matter how much you like it. Like you said, artificial sweeteners are just as bad, they trick your body into thinking it has ingested sugar which leads to insulin being secreted unecessarily, leading…

  • I work in an orthopedic surgeons practice specializing in spine surgery so I see a lot of that. The docs recommend swimming, biking, and eliptical workouts. Also yoga is great, especially Bikram Yoga, which has a whole spine strengthening series built into the session.

  • No no no!!! Its not just calories that matter, its whats in those calories. Any food from fast food places is loaded with fillers and preservatives and straight up chemicals. You might as well just eat another thousand calories a day. Make your own burger, it tastes better and is way healthier. Even if you are getting a…

  • I'm not a guy but I have some tips for you that really work. The number one rule, do not eat while in front of any electronic device (TV, computer, Ipad, etc). You loose track of how much you have eaten and just tend to keep eating just for the sake of it. Also, don't dine alone if you can help it. Conversation helps slow…

  • When you've been eating light and healthy for a long time, your metabolism slows down because it gets used to not having to work very hard. When you eat a huge meal when you haven't in a long time, its like a kick start for your metabolism. It will get your body burning calories faster until it gets used to you eating…
