  • That's fine eggs are fine to eat. I have to buy a five dozen pack to keep up with me and my man. We literally have eggs every day for breakfast but it is a great way to start out the day. There could be way worse things to do!

What I have typically done is either protein shake (chocolate ice cream…

  • That's funny I can't even get close to the sodium levels I need! I eat everything fresh. Cut back on processed foods, and I never salt anything I usually dispise the taste of salt unless I am craving it. Generally what I do is pepper or put other seasonings, vinegar, tomato sauce.

  • I have chosen a protein shake for after working out that is chocolate. It is a great reward for working out! The one I use is called muscle max nutrition systems chocolate ice cream. Not only does it satisfy my chocolate and ice cream cravings but helps me fulfill my protein requirements most of the time!

  • Are you eating to many or too few calories? I have been stuck on 150 lbs for years and I recently got the fit bit that basically integrates into my fitness pal and tailors the typical calories that girls your age and weight would burn or need to eat daily and tracks it. It has really helped me out past that hump. I have a…

  • I don't have cheat days. Once I go down that path it is too hard! If you are craving pizza go out and have a slice at a place that serves it by the slice. Or finding healthy alternatives to still fulfill that desire. As long as you do things in moderation you can still have what you want. I have lately been looking at it…

Basically I peel vegetables such as sweet potatoes regular potatoes, green beans, etc. and throw them in one of the bags with some good seasoning. Doesn't take long. Not the preservatives or sodium that a lot of those "healthy" tv dinners have. I…

Just stick with healthy alternatives and…
