Calorie Counts in Recipes Question
Just out of curiosity...when you are adding your own recipe, do you include calories for ingredients that are there just for flavor and discarded but not eaten? For instance I am making 20 garlic chicken for the first time tonight. Onions line the bottom and there are several garlic bulbs around the chicken but neither are…

Some advice please :(
Ok I went to the doctor today and indeed do have a inguinal hernia. I had one as a small child in the same spot and I guess the area got weak again with a mix of these new exercises and heavy lifting at work (I unload trucks and put out freight). My question to you guys is any advice on keeping my weight loss going when I…

Increase in hunger?
I have noticed that since I started eating healthier I've stayed hungry all the time, whereas before I had to force myself to eat more than twice a day.

Nausea after exercise?
I've never felt sick to my stomach after an exercise until today.

Trouble hitting calories?
Ok I have noticed a lot of posts lately talking about upping your calorie intake to help boost metabolism. I have only been a member 2 days and so far both days I haven't hit my calorie goal. At first it gave me a goal of 1260 and of course that goes up the more I exercise. I've made much healthier choices and cut out soda…

Veggie add ins-suggestions?
Being a Southern gal I've grown up eating many veggies made with animal fats such as fatback, etc. I've ate that way as long as I can remember. I'm trying to make a change for the better in my life and I am looking for ways to add some flavor to my veggies that won't compromise my progress. I think the biggest kicker is…

Need feedback & any help...
Hi everyone! I just joined today and just started my weight loss journey yesterday. I have a long way to go with a goal of 115lbs. My starting weight yesterday was 195 and today I was 192. I started Zumba at home yesterday and cut out the soda. My biggest challenge (and it always has been) is my diet. I am a very picky…
