Avocadoes are considered a superfood, they are very healthy for you. Its not the bad kind of fat thats in them.

Try adding in dried fruit and sandwiches. I think those are probably my highest calorie things.

I'm a size 10 according to standard American size charts and even that isn't accurate. I only wear a size 6-8 the sizes just get bigger and bigger.

Real amount of calories in boneless skinless chicken: 144. 1 serving of veggie chicken: 110 plus no cholesterol. Real cheese = 110 calories Real amount of calories in 2 tbsp sour cream--unless its nonfat = 118 2 tbsp of vegan sour cream = 85 calories plus no carcinogens, growth hormones, or cholesterol. Daiya vegan cheese=…

Just eat as much as you want and then stop. If you're under your calorie goal it is ok. Just don't overstuff yourself when you don't want the extra food. Thats teaching your body to eat like you're fat.

http://myvega.com/products/vega-sport-performance-protein/features-benefits This is the best protein powder. If you buy some from Target anyway, I recommend organic rice or hemp protein. Avoid the dairy derived protein. Cows do not need to be injected with growth hormone for their milk to contain growth hormone. They…

"I'll Be Watching You", The Police. Not my choice. Its on the radio at work.

I would say never go over 1700. But eat 1500-1700 when you feel like it because you can still lose a lot of weight on a decent amount of calories since you are in a higher weight range right now.

Only if: 1. You burned a LOT of calories, and even then I would say try to keep it a small meal and not eat quite ALL of them back. 2. Only if you are really really hungry. If you feel satisfied on the before exercise calorie amount, don't incease your food--just enjoy the extra weight loss you will get.

You can lose more if you would like to. You're well within a healthy BMI right now, but you can lose more weight. Just don't drop below about 115 lbs (8 st. 3lb) or you would be underweight.

Great job making sure you eat more sustainable types of fish! I really appreciate that in a person. My profile picture is with my cat Fruffy--at the time I'd just recently gotten him and wanted to take some photos with him since he was so brand new and exciting! And that day also I had just had my hair done and had felt…

Try out Earth Balance Light. It has flax seed oil in it which helps with your cholesterol levels and its also 100% dairy free which is great because its good to avoid dairy since it naturally contains growth hormones as well as caesin, a known carcinogen. Earth Balance Light tastes great too, and melts just like real…

I agree with you 100%. Especially when people use every movement they make throughout the day to count as 'exercise'. Making a sandwich 100 calories! Watching tv, 50 calories! Walking from the car to the store! 500 calories! Life isn't a video game.

Just a little dip in blood sugar, its really common. Just make sure you bring a banana or an apple with you anytime you start feeling a little light headed, that should solve your problem.

If you have a craving for pizza but don't want to ruin your whole day try... Amy's rice crust gluten free dairy free cheez pizza--less than 500 calories for the whole pizza--available at Publix and Whole Foods. OR Amy's cheese free roasted vegetable pizza--only a few hundred calories ofr a serving.

me and my friend did a workout together the other day and we both logged it on here and it was different amounts of calories because we are different weights.
-
I think it is a bad idea to plan a free day. I mean, everyone has free days. The days where you eat too much and you're too hungry, and you just say, screw it. These shouldn't be planned though. You have to just listen to your body and stick with the plan as much as you can. Because you will weigh more the next day even…

I didn't experience any of that yesterday but I appreciate having a support system of friends through this website, I think its great to have people to talk to and this place is a big motivator for me!
-
I think its best not to eat your exercise calories. Just consider the exercise an extra boost to help you out rather than something you need to "make up for".
-
PS a little advice that I think works is even if extra calories get added onto your daily allowance because you worked out, DON'T eat them. I think it helps to just stay to the regular calorie goal instead of giving yourself those extra allowances.
-
Just water weight, I'm sure it will be gone next time you weigh yourself. Keep it up, sounds like you are doing great!
-
Based on your profile pic you're already pretty close to perfect to me! You look toned.
-
All they do in a color correction is bleach it, then dye it. Might as well do that yourself, its going to be damaging either way. I like Manic Panic 30 volume bleaching kit. Then get a dye in the color that you want. May also want to get a red/gold corrector and/or a purple toner or shampoo to tone out brassiness--when you…

I'm vegan. I rarely ever eat breakfast, just coffee. If I do, though, I will have quinoa oatmeal and throw in some blueberries. Quinoa is really high in protein and considered a superfood.
-
I would count Crystal Light, but not sodas (even diet) or coffee because these beverages dehydrate you.
-
I find I often consume twice the daily recommended of fiber! Most Americans are deficient in fiber. Its easy though--just go vegan! :)
-
There is nothing wrong with a person YOU perceive as skinny complaining that they are fat. They can't help it that they happen to be smaller than you. You can never know exactly the way another person feels or why they feel the way they do. So don't judge them.
-
Whenever I lose a significant amount of weight its always done in a relatively short period of time--I.E. months, not years. Its because of my all or nothing mentality--I can't just cut back a little. I have to either cut WAAAYYYY back and severely restrict myself every single day compared to my previous life--or else just…

OX TAILS?! Roast pork?! This thread is disgusting.
