So is sugar from fruit…

Just a taste of the madness to come. Anyone…

Hard boiled Eggs
I am looking at snacks and I like hard boiled eggs but the cholesterol is making me worry that I will do more harm then good. I workout about an hour and a half a day so I don't burn 1000 calories and such. Any advice? Or do I need to keep them to a once in a while snack?

I do 1 phase a day and after I complete phase 1 I will try to do both phase 1 and 2 daily, but that's a few days out. So currently when I'm done with the DVD I get on the treadmill for another 40-60…

Question about daily calorie intake
So I'm counting calories and working out. Now when I log my workouts in it gives me more calories to intake. For instance my daily calorie goal is 1400 and I work out 300 calories it gives me 300 more calories to eat, thus telling me I should consume 1700. Should I be consuming more or not? I thought the whole point of…
