DISORDERED THINKING. I eat healthy food and have no problem hitting at least 1500 daily usually could easily go over if I had a piece of toast and peanut butter. I think so many people start out on a diet and think all food except veggies are basically bad for them so they are so extreme its got them thinking that they…

PIZZA FRIDAYS BABY! down just shy of 60 pounds and still losing. I enjoy a couple slices every Friday without fail and it hasn't stopped me. and for the record I'm not one of those who forgot what its like to be fat cause I still am, but I am one of those that realized that this if for life and not temporary and life has…

so your getting smaller. umm sounds like its working. weight is just a number, nobody goes around picking you up and saying "oops you must be fat because your heavy" no they look at the way you look. losing inches means trimmer, smaller sizes and inturn you "look" like you weigh less. who cares about the scale number. IMO

I truly believe that nutrition needs to be taught in school, however the way this teacher went about it wrong. you don't restrict claories, you don't work off every meal, and you definatly don't tell them you eat nuts for dinner cause you don't have any calories left. my sons are in elementary school and already are…

finding a breed specific puppy from a rescue or shelter is a pretty tall task. if your sure that it has to be a certain breed find a good breeder and purchase the puppy. I'm sorry I don't think cost should be a factor when getting the right fit. I have a Viszla (pointer) and it wasn't cheap but my boy was worth it. we knew…

Nope I'm ready to get on with it. 41 not in perimenopause yet. always been a night sweater though. I don't have a need for a period or my uterus for that matter. I just want it gone :)

im just curious as to seeing a oppen diary for a low carb person. I eat a ton of veggies, and oat bran everyday so low carb is not something I can even wrtap my head around. would love to see someones diary to get a better image of what this "diet" looks like I totally envision someone eating bacon all day :)

Im not a fan of chia. I dont like the gooey yuck they turn into. I use dground flax in my oatmeal everyday along with protien and blueberries and it gives off a nice little nutty flavor

you can manually check your pulse. you will know if its elevated though. i mean you shouldnt feel like you sitting doing nothing. is it challenging? is it hard? then your elevated. really though, not to come off as rude, but this is not rocket science. dont make it into it. just starte moving and doing and you will get the…

whatever RPM gets your heart rate up. if its too easy bump it up. It really is going to be different for everyone. there is no set RPM for weightloss. same goes for your treadmill question. Its going to be different for everyone. the fitter you get the more you will need to do to burn more calories so its a evelution of…

I wear makup everyday to work, i work out after work, so yes.

I have not walked in your shoes, but a friend lost her adult daughter 4 years ago to a drunk driver. She took it one day at a time. There were lots of down spots. she became an advocate for MADD and started talking about her daughter and that helped her heal. Iam so very sorry for your loss

I make a slaw. on 12oz bag of shredded cabbage and carrots. 1 tbls oil, 2 tbls lime juice and salt. i like to take my corn tortillas and crisp them a bit in the oven. i use baked fish in salsa, and add some spanish rice and avacado

thanks for that response. and BTW your still younger than me ;)

Im the same way. I can have cake, pie or other sweet treats and not crave more. but if I have fruit I constantly crave sugar! I dont eat alot of fruit for that reason alone.

Just work them into your day. I love pizza, to fight craving for it and the resulting binge, i plan it for dinner every friday night with my kids. that way I know its coming and can adjust for it but I also get to eat what I want.

hi there, Im almost 40, have two children (8 and 6) and have a husband who travels for work and is gone 16-20 days a month. So for week long streches at a time its just me and my boys. I work fulltime as well. I have already lost 70 pounds and am 25 from my first goal of 160pounds. I go to the gym directly after work and…

VEGGIES! brussel sprouts, broccoli, sweet potatoes, regular potatoes, all good carbs, filling and will help reach fiber goals which will have you feeling more satisfied.

I have the one that @cheshirecatastrophe posted. I like it. it stays put and doesnt cause me any discomfort. I like that it can hold 3-4 gu's and some other things as well as the two bottles.

I spent the last 6 months training for a marathon and restricting calories to drop 20lbs. after the marathon in mid june I started eating at maintanence until ust last week. I also took 4 weeks off of running and working out and just enjoyed vacationing with family. It was a well needed break and i was able to not gain…

I thinkhe meant hungry, but hey losing your belly and finding out your not as hung is possible too :D

I confess that yesterday I ate half a large bucket of popcorn at the movies, had two slices of pizza for dinner, two garlic bread sticks, two brownies and 2 cups of strawberry ice cream for dessert.

I have a family so I always cook for everyone together. 2oz dry pasta is roughly 4oz cooked i found in my trials.

If you can run 10 you can run 13 in 8 weeks time. look up a half marathon training prgram and either start at you base milage now or step back a few weeks to make for a total of 8 weeks training time. for crosstraining i like doing swimming and lifting. i did it twice a week while training for a full.

I have but had to have the chest strap uncomfortably tight to keep a reading.

on my husband no, but on random boyfriends in my 20's yes. but i never considered any of them serious (didnt lead them to think it was either) and didnt live with anyone.
