And please before anyone jumps on the bandwagon and…

Honestly i have noticed that most of the foods on here dont measure potassium i wouldnt worry about it much if your eating fruit veg and meat you will be fine. it is quite difficult to become potassium deficent if you are really worried about it go to your doctor and get your blood work done but if your feeling fine you…

i wouldnt say its too much fiber as your body tends to regulate this what i would suggest is maybe one day with the fruit and veg and the other day with the nuts as it could be a reaction to the nuts as there were three different types i would try them seperately (im allergic to oranges) so yes it can happen Ps it can take…

Hi My gym instructor told us that doing cardio with weights burns double the cals, But if i was you id be happy logging just normal dance safe in the knowleage you have burned more.

Well i have been drinking semi skimmed milk from the age of 18 and since 21 i have had four kids so if its true it hasn't effected me i think its a lot of nonsence it might be true that the hormones in the milk are different to whole milk but i don't think it seriously effects you getting pregnant . good luck on both your…

They way i see it its apart of my lifestyle just not as big as it used to be i have it once in a while but i do tend to up the exercise and every other day of that week is perfect so it doesn't hinder my weight loss plus and i know some of you will think this is cheating a bit but i have it at the begining of my week which…
