Lady teachers, how much do you eat?
I am a substitute teacher and I average about 4 days a week (probably 1/3rd of those are Phys. Ed days). On days where I'm teaching I am MUCH hungrier than when I am on my days off (which are spent mostly lazing around with a little cleaning/dog playing...unless I exercise of course). I know there are a ton of teachers on…

Do you feel skinnier the 2nd time around?
Just something I've noticed lately... My whole life I was pretty small...very fit in highschool, then gained a little more than the freshman 15 in university, but I was still a pretty healthy weight. Whenever I got up around 150 lbs I felt disgusting and looked bloated in pictures. Then...I met my boyfriend. I gained over…

Spike day + exercise, good or bad?
I've been stuck with my weight loss for the past few weeks, and taking a look back I've realized that I haven't had a spike day in a while. I figured today would be a good day to throw one in since it's the superbowl and all! I had planned on going to play some indoor soccer tonight, where I will burn anywhere from 600-800…

Upping Cals...some personal advice please?
Hey all, I've been reading a lot lately about the benefits of eating more while losing weight. I am a little confused about the whole situation and just wanted some advice from those in the know. I am 5'2 with a medium and muscular build (Even at 120lbs in high school I wasn't SKINNY...moreso solid/curvy haha). I currently…

Creamy Cheesy Deliciousness!
So I was trying to think of different ways to use up the leftover turkey from Christmas. Using some recipes I found, and my own additions, I came up with this: In a pan combine cubed cooked turkey (or chicken), broccoli (I used 1 cup-ish), cauliflower (1 cup) and crumbled cooked bacon (I used 5 strips, 30 grams cooked).…

Teaching Physical Education- Calories burned- Does this seem
So, I am a substitute teacher. I set my lifestyle as sedentary, because on the days I'm not working I spend most of the time on the couch (unless I'm cleaning, exercising, etc, but I log the exercise). On days where I am teaching, I noticed I have a much larger appetite..which makes sense, because it's a lot of standing…

Have you ever seen Fat Head? Thoughts?
I just watched the documentary Fat Head, which is kind of a response to Supersize Me. It basically turns everything you thought you knew on it's head. Just wondering if any one else has seen it and what your thoughts on it are? I found it hard not to believe the viewpoints expressed. If you haven't seen it, you definitely…

23 and 1/2 Hours- Video (why we should exercise, even just a
Hey all, this video has been all over my Facebook wall from other Kin alumn and I thought it could really help some people find the motivation to get that exercise in to their daily routines! I've noticed a lot of people on here that feel as though they can skip the exercise because they are losing weight with a diet…

Very useful first NSV!
I am a substitute teacher. I teach all subjects, but quite often it's Phys. Ed. since that is my specialty. I have tons of PE teaching clothes...but not so many actual teacher clothes. I realized the other day that my only pair of black dress pants that fit were having a zipper issue (no one wants to be the sub that's…

I WAS an athlete. Trying to get back to form!
Hello all! I am 5'2 and I just turned 26. When in high school I was on at least 2 teams at any given time, resulting in a game or practice most days of the week. I was 120-125 lbs when I graduated. In university my activity level dropped significantly as I only played intramurals, and soccer in the summer (my eating habits…
