  • You have to keep your eyes out for my favorite that is only available seasonally - the fit & active Turkey burgers. They are only about $5 for 10 or 12 patties and only 130 cals each - cheaper and less cals then Jennie-O. Hopefully they will be back for memorial day and the summer cookout season so I can stock up! I also…

  • I used to always get like this. I've been working with a trainer and she has had me change the type of food I ate and said I was having too much sugar. She set my sugar max at 25 grams for the day and have been keeping that for a few weeks now. I have noticed since that my appetite has been regulated and I don't get shakes…
    in Can someone explain the science to me????? Comment by jessicaj_824 May 2011
  • Yes, I understand what you mean about them offering to cook "healthy". My mom always wants me to come for dinner and I say no thanks, and explain that I really need to cook my own food and eat healthy. Then she says "but I can make meatloaf??"" Really Mom... meatloaf was the healthiest thing you could think of?! LOL - and…
    in Friends frustrating me Comment by jessicaj_824 May 2011
  • Yes, this is very annoying. I always get the "you don't eat!" comments and my mom is one of the worst ones. It's very upsetting to me and I actually was in tears a few weeks ago talking with my mom about Easter dinner plans and trying to explain to her how she stressed me out. I watch what I eat and try to moniter my…

  • Start doing your food diary again. Being conscious of what I'm eating and when helps my brain stop to telling me to eat everyting I see!. You may be eating too many carbs and sugar - I know for me this makes my appetite/cravings through the roof!

    in I have 130 lbs to go! Can I do it?!? Comment by jessicaj_824 April 2011
  • I would suggest Pilates as a great toning tool. Weights are great and should be used regularly but I think adding in Pilates keeps you long and lean, as well as adding flexibility.

    in The end all to the sweetener debate Comment by jessicaj_824 April 2011
  • There are special scales that will calculate your body fat. I have the Biggest Loser scale that calcualtes body fat, water, lean mass along with some other things that I am not sure waht they mean.
    in How do you figure Comment by jessicaj_824 April 2011
  • I have had success with cutting out aspartame and sugar free gum. I have had IBS type symptoms for years. I knew I was lactose intolerant and recently found I couldn't tolerate most fruit. I went to a gastro for help since even after cutting out these foods I still did not feel 100% (or even close). She had me cut out all…
