Just Wonder what Norman Rockwell would have painted for lunc
We all know that the stats show America is getting fatter and lazier. No wonder, with all the drive thru's (guilty) and non-stop tv programming. But as I was stuck in traffic last night wishing I had someone at home cooking a healthy dinner to be on the table when I got home with a smile on his face...I got to wondering…

Exercise Logging Question
When entering a exercise from the list and entering the minutes...does the calculated calories burned factor in your current weight or is it just an overall average based on an average weight? From what I understand (and I may be wrong) generally those who weigh more burn more doing the same as a lighter person...any input…

Openminded, but not won over...
I am a very no-fuss eater...I like a basic meat, starch and common veggie plate. But last night I was open minded and made some speagetti squash...and lived to talk about it!

A simple question I am sure...
But I like to see it in print...I am going to make pasta tonight...for the whole family...if I was simply cooking for myself I would weigh the 2oz of past before I cook it and would be sure of my portion.

One Meal at a Time
I have a weakness for loaded potatoes, it's no secret really. Today at work, for the taking, were baked potatoes and bowls of cheese, bacon, green onion, butter, sour cream, ranch dressing....everything (plus) that I would eat on a normal day for lunch, and it was free (I usually pay $4.50)!!! I wanted it so bad...so so…

Water Weight?
How long does it take the "water weight" to come off? Basically just wondering when I can start looking at the number as my "actual weight" or "actual loss" if that makes any sense... :) Thanks!!!

Trying again with a new hunger
I have fought with my weight since my first pregnancy in 1997 and I was 20. I have had some mild successes before but always find the weight coming back, usually due to emotional eating. I now find myself 32, a single mom of three, working full time with a long commute, needless to say, I have put myself last for so long.…
