  • I usually eat those extra calories through some form of protein because your muscles need those nutrients to help recover. I know that it is all about creating a calorie-deficit but it doesn't hurt to eat some of those calories back. Remember what they give you to start the day is the calorie MINIMUM your body needs to run…

  • WOW! All of these are super great ideas! Thanks for the input. I try to stick with frozen as much as I can. With as big as every package is coming out, there's no WAY I could use all of it before it goes bad just by myself. But I'll definitely take these into consideration. I got a crock pot for christmas but there's only…

  • well the first week is going to be a little hard. But the important thing to know when you are starting is just WRITING DOWN what is going into your body.

  • Although it's good to have around 5 "meals" a day, I know some people's schedules conflict with that - including me. So what I subscribe to doing is eating 3 meals a day and trying to slip in a mid-afternoon snack that is high in protein and fiber so it'll keep me satisfied until dinner.

  • Carbs are my downfall so really I can eat a whole box of cereal in one sitting. I also love pasta and kettle corn hands down is my favorite snack. I don't get my hands on it very often - but when I do, the results are atrocious.
