Two day 3555 or 5555 day challenge
Looking for participants in my 2 day 3555 or 5555 calorie burn (April 14th and 15th) It's not that bad if you eat back a decent amount of those calories, stay hydrated and get good night sleeps. I did one 14 days ago, I never thought I would be able to do it, but I conquered it. If you have any questions or concerns, ask…

FYI
- It doesn't matter what exercises you choose to do or how you break down your workouts over the two days. If you want to do one workout each day, that is fine. If you want to do 3 workouts on one day and 2 on the second day, that's fine also. - I can't stress the importance of eating back a good chunk of your workout…

smoothies? cost
I love smoothies but only get them once or twice a week from the cafe in my health club or Jamba juice. I would love to start having smoothies everyday and making them on my own. If I make one a day, about how much fruit and/or veggies do I need? About how much does that cost a week?

The only thing I don't do is make my own pasta from scratch. That being said, I don't want to sacrifice taste at all. At the same time I…

Food database
I'm not sure if this is the correct folder so excuse if it's not. I'm new to this site and was wondering if most people are pleased with the database of foods on here.
