  • I love the flavored mustards but you have to be careful... some honey mustards have more calories than BBQ sauce!

  • Splurge! Just watch your intake the rest of the day and avoid carbs and sugar in your other meals. Life isn't about chaining yourself to the diet wagon, it's about enjoying yourself... just make sure to stay on the wagon 90% of the time :)

  • Drink more water prior to AND after-after is very important because it flushes all that nasty crap out of you that you build up WHILE exercising... also, I think moisturizing with a good moisturizer keeps your skin elastic and smooth and prevents itching from the dry skin caused by sweating... I'd do that just prior to…

  • Pickles are an awesome way to get salt in your diet, but always drink the water to balance out your sodium intake. Another thing I've found is eating almonds roasted with sea salt. Sea salt can become a salt-craver's best friend, because it has a LOT less sodium than table salt and doesn't raise your blood pressure like…

  • They're called shin splints-and they're very painful. The information in this article is helpful. http://walking.about.com/cs/medleg/ht/htshinsplints.htm Another thing that helps is drinking lots of water prior to walking and taking a potassium supplement... Good Luck!

  • I didn't address the main part of your post, but I wanted to make you aware of some of the tricks I've learned about eating habits. I apologize. I do think it is okay to decrease your goal in order to maintain a good perspective on things. The main thing is to stay focused, so do whatever it takes to keep yourself on the…
    in Reducing goal to continue weight loss? Comment by wendyannhall March 2010
  • Don't limit yourself to carrot sticks and cottage cheese... I know that was just an example, but be real about your weight loss. We all know that diets DON'T WORK. If they did, the whole world would be skinny. Do what works for you-but counteract what you do to your body. YES, it is a lifestyle change, and No, I don't…

  • I'm sure it's water weight, and good job on working out... however, there is such thing as too much too soon... Not necessarily in the weight loss at this point, but don't overdo the exercising right off the bat. The body NEEDS time to heal after you tear your muscles... every time you do any sort of weight or resistance…

  • I looked it up-it says five on my jar. Regardless of fat or other content, cucumbers themselves have calories, pickling them may add some, but never subtract. But only 5 calories?! What a great snack! :) Keep up the good work!
