ATT~ 800 - 1000 cals a day? Now how did you handle the excersize calorie aspect? Were you eating some or all of those back or sticking to those calories AND burning high amounts working out?

Oh goodness. I love tea! Anything Celestial Seasonings (made right here in Colorado)! I prefer their Lemon Zinger with splenda and a squeeze of Lemon. COLD peppermint tea with splenda is my ultimate favorite!

You need to eat way more... I think Ive discovered that my body will even allow me to eat up to maintanance calories and still lose a pound a week... the more you work out, the more you can eat. I also zig zag calories...

its a beautiful thing

sing it sister!

Thats where the heart rate comes into play. My heart rate goes up when Im hitting hard resistence and down when I back off on the resistence. Calories are measured based on how hard Im working out, ie: how hard my heart is pumping. Meaning, MY HEART knows what resistance Im at. The Machine is only measuring when you are…

Honestly, I wouldnt question it. Go with it. Your body is gonna do what its gonna do. Mine does something similar. I dont see a loss for weeks and then BAM! Im blindsided with a 3-6 lb loss over a few days. It sounds like you are doing exactly what you should be doing! Keep up the good work girl!

I just bought "cinnamon raison cookie" scented hand wash at Bath and Body Works. OMG!!! Go get yourselves some immediately! It smells just like fresh baked cookies! Enough to make your mouth water!

I think the hrm is definately much more accurate than any machine.

anything that tastes of or is related to shrimp, lobster or fishy tasting anything. I will however, eat Poke when Im back home in Hawaii. Fresh ahi and ono are amazing. But, if it tastes fishy whatsoever, it makes me feel all icky.

Um, Jillian doesnt work out in her video. She joins them every now and then but doesnt work out.

Not to mention, every time I look at her she has a look on her face as if she smells something bad. not sure what thats about, just sayin.

green coffee is still processed (all coffee cherry must be processed to become bean), but I believe its different than your typical dry process (the oldest and longest used form )(and best IMO) for processing cherry.

Did you count the Olive Oil in your calories? Its not listed as an ingredient and probably has more calories than anything on your list of ingredients.

Several years ago I purchased a vintage Olag Cassini top sort of like this one (except mine had larger sequins that were blue and aqua colored : http://s.ecrater.com/stores/56733/4b3eafda15e7e_56733n.jpg I then went to work. I pulled out the thin nylon backing making the sequined part somewhat see through, and so that I…

Sounds like it would be just fine calorie wise! Maybe 300 per serving or so!

There are tons of Yoga poses I cant come close to doing. (Lots of things I remember doing as a kid) Definately will be able to some day!

My mom makes a chicken spaghetti by cooking 4 chicken breasts, garlic and onion in about 12 cups of water. Once cooked and boiling she adds about 12 oz of pasta. Once the pasta is done she adds a can of crushed tomatoes and 1/4 - 1/2 block of velveeta cheese. (No, she doesnt drain the pasta and the extra fluid makes it…

And THIS is why I love you Chevy! I think Ill stick with taking advice from someone who actually has some experience, thank you! On a side note, I also noticed the original poster has lost ZERO. Yes, ZERO. Glad thats working for you hunny.

Oh my goodness, sounds just like me. I wouldnt stop on the way home, but when I did get home it was an all night eat-o-rama!

I couldnt agree more with the statement on drinks. I saw a 550+ calorie Starbucks drink on your diary. Holy Moley, If I killed that many calories on a drink Id be starving too.

ANYTHING, and I mean ANYTHING by Christopher Moore. I own all of his books and let me just say, if you like to LAUGH, he is your man! If you do take on his books, save LAMB for last. It is by far his best book however I wouldnt want you to measure his other books based on that one! Get ready to have people looking at you…

1700 - 1800 depending on how many calories I worked off. I DONT freak out if I go OVER by 100-300 either. Why? you ask... because Im set to lose 2lbs a week and have about a 500 calorie wiggle area.

My thoughts would be sticken down by the masses but I think the plaid suit is the better choice!!! BOTH top and BOTTOMS! The black suit makes your *kitten* look way bigger and FLAT. More suit covering you does not mean it looks better! (For what its worth, Im from Hawaii and I KNOW my bathing suits. Nomatter how big I got…

If they have Molcajete, I order that. Its a stew of beef, chicken and pork swimming in a delicious thick green chili sauce. Its served with a plate of salsa, cheese, guac, lettuce and sour cream so you can control what you put on them. I LOVE them with the corn tortillas! Theres usually enough in one serving for 3 or 4…

oh, and btw. I found that my polar was compatable with my elliptical so they actually communicate! make sure you get a hrm with a chest strap, i think they are the most accurate!
