Not hungry...don't want to eat
I know that I should never skip breakfast but I just can't seem to make myself eat in the morning, more often than not, anyway. How detrimental is this if done routinely? :ohwell:

Deluxe stir-fry
You know how you can buy those bags of deluxe stir-fry vegies with water chestnuts, broccoli, baby corn cobs, etc.? How do you cook that? I've wasted two bags trying different things. It just ends up tasting like nothing or too salty, whatever. Suggestions, please!

Okay, I'm confused...white rice versus brown rice

Whiting fish
Has anyone ever heard of/tried a fish called "whiting" fish? I thought that it would be a "clean" fish but when I opened the bag, the smell just threw me! Is that normal for that kind of fish? Also, if you've tried it, what does it taste like? Cod, perch, tilapia? I HATE an oily tasting fish!

Hey everyone! I'm hoping someone can help me with this. When doing Pilates, what would be the most accurate setting for your heart rate monitor? I'm sure it wouldn't be hard but I don't think it is basic, either.
