February 2013 goals
What are everyone's goals for this month. Last month, my goal was to drink at least 8 glasses of water a day. This month, I had stated to a friend that I was going to incorporate avacados into my diet, but I think I am going to tweak my February goal to concentrating on not eating breakfast at my desk. This is a very big…

good food vs. bad food
For the past 14 years, I have ate breakfast at my desk. I have always been one to snack at my desk and quite frankly, if I didn't eat at my desk in the mornings, I would feel lost the rest of the day. For 10 of those years, my breakfasts consisted of, usually a bag of popcorn. I have been dieting for years and could never…

No sweat...
I walked 30 minutes for lunch, and although I got my heart rate up, I didn't sweat. I always thought the more I sweat the more I lose. Is there any truth to that? I have lost almost 10 pounds but am thinking I would lose more if I could sweat more. I am not saying I don't sweat but, I guess as I am concerned, I don''t…

The right time...
What are everyone's thoughts about the right time to workout. Last couple of weeks it seemed like the only time I got a chance to workout was about 9 at night. But I thought that it might not do me any good since I would be going to bed like immediately after, Or it would mean I would be up until midnight to give my body a…

When you think you are being good....
I just posted this on my page, but I went to Applebees for lunch today for a business meeting. I thought I was being so careful when I ordered a cup of soup and a half sandwich. I know it was potato soup, but it was only a little cup and didn't think it was that bad. The sandwich too. It was 1/2 of a roast beef mushroom…

Avocados
Anyone eat avocados? I absolutely love guacamole, but other than that, have no clue how to fix avocados.

Easy and quick lunch ideas
I am always at a loss at what to fix at home for lunches at work? I usually will grab a bologna sandwich. But, if I have a sandwich I always have to have chips with it. Or grab a burger but got to have fries. Ugh, I need some good lunch ideas. What does everyone make for their lunches?
