zumba calories?
My zumba class is an hour... I've been entering in the class as "aerobics- high impact" since I didn't see zumba in the database. Do you think the calories are comparable or should I be entering it in as something else? Thanks

Napa Cabbage?
What's your favorite way to use it? I just got some in my co-op this morning... I tried a salad recipe before with it, but it was way too oily and not very healthy! Thanks

strength training questions
I am trying to get back into strength training, but I have a VERY hard time motivating myself to go to the gym and do it. I think it's so boring and tedious. I always feel out of place because it is mostly sweaty grunting men. If I have a kickboxing class, or any other class for that matter, I'm super excited to go and…

Apple Pie-lets
I just tried making this Hungry Girl recipe tonight and they were really good! Not as good as REAL apple pies, but for 103 calories and .5 gram of fat, I'll take it anyday! Plus, the serving is huge! Enjoy- http://www.hungry-girl.com/newsletters/raw/1404

exercise calories?
How many of your exercise calories do you eat? With my exercise today, I will still have 1595 left for the day- and it's already 3:00 PM. That seems like so much. My target is usually 1330. I'm having a hard time finding the balance between eating too many calories and not enough, especially on the days when I have intense…

plateau
Help! I've lost 80 lbs now and I just feel like I'm stuck. I've hit plateaus before but have managed to break through them. I've been stuck between 142-145 now for months. I completely understand now the frustration of those last 10-15 lbs. I eat very healthy, workout a lot, and it's just not wanting to come off. Do you…

Exercise at lunch?
I'm an elementary teacher. My friend and I want to start doing some exercising at lunch... but nothing that gets us too sweaty or requires us to change out of our work clothes. I have a DVD player in my room and I was thinking some strength building exercises. Any ideas? Does anyone have a routine that they do at work?…

This is kind of a strange question, but I thought maybe I would get some help on here! So, I am entering this teachers recipe contest through taste of home- the grand prize is $20k so I figured it can't hurt. I'm having a hard time coming up with a catchy name for it though- It's basically a vegan lasagna that is not in…

PB2 Question
I've been very interested in this product after hearing a lot about it. I checked out the shop on Bellplantation.com and it seems kind of expensive ($12+ for shipping).

my mii jumped for joy!
After over a year of a healthy lifestyle, I've lost 75 lbs. It was so exciting this weekend to see my Mii jump in happiness for the first time at a "Healthy BMI". Much better than... dun dun dun. "That's overweight" or "That's obese". I was hoping my mii would get skinnier, but that didn't happen! lol...

October 1st...
October 1st Is World Vegetarian Day! I notice a lot of people talking about going vegetarian or vegan, what a great day to start! Even if you love meat and just incorporate "meatless mondays" into your life it will force you to make a veggie-full meal once a week! Or you could try promising yourself to go veggie for a…

weight loss when taking a break?
So- I've been working out like CRAZY for the last few months. I've seen a lot of difference in inches and clothes size, but really haven't lost much weight. Last week I took a break from the gym (it was just a super busy week and I was exhausted). I still watched what I ate but took about 5 days off from any exercise.. and…

help... eating when I get home from work
So I've discovered that my BIGGEST issue with controlling my eating is when I first get home from work and walk through the door. I instantly want to eat everything in sight. Usually my Husband and kids aren't home yet so it's just me and the dogs for 15 minutes or so and it seems like I always just get that "who cares"…

New to myfitnesspal
Hi everyone! My name is Katrina and I was with WW for a year. I decided to go off of WW because I went vegetarian/vegan and they didn't have the nutritional information I needed. I was a little nervous about quitting it because I did really well with it (went from 215 to 155), but it was starting to overtake my life a…
