Obsessed with low fat cottage cheese
So I recently started eating LF cottage cheese and find I really enjoy it. I love it with fresh fruit, and have been trying it with different fruits, I like it with pepper also. So far my favorite fruit with it is strawberries. Didn't like clementines with it or black berries thought they were too acidic for it. Bananas…

Heart rate monitor advice
I am very interested in getting a HRM I can wear all day and maybe at night to track my sleeping. I would like it to be compatible with Apple products and MFP if that exists. Also are there ones that are better for someone who is well endowed? Thank you for any advice or suggestions !

Walking at an incline
So I like the treadmill but it was starting to get "easy" and I am not comfortable running on the treadmill, I have balance issues and running on something that is moving doesn't work for me, so I started using the incline options. Any way to my point does walking at an incline work your abs more than walking with out one?…

Sweet NSV

Yummy low cal bread
So I have been craving carbs lately which is unusual for me. But I believe cravings are often our bodies way of telling us we need something, nutritionally speaking. So I was shopping and saw this low cal, 35 cal a slice, oatmeal bread by Country Kitchen. I am a white bread girl but this bread is awesome. Nice and soft…

Am i the only one who likes to work out alone
I prefer to work out alone. When ever people say we should go together I have an urge to scream "no leave me alone" in the voice of a five year old who doesn't want to share their toys. I am going to work out not chat, I don't want to alter my workout to suite your pace, I don't want to hear about your day, your husband,…

She had received it from my father and they were getting a divorce so she didn't want it but thought I might, it never fit me, was always too small but I…

I then used this info to find out what my goal weight would be to get to 15%, 12%, and 8%. It gave me respectively 213 lbs,…

Mini rant
For the love of god I will never understand people who do not wear appropriate clothing to work out! I don't care if it is in style or looks great if it interferes with our workout don't wear it to the gym. Now I do an hour on the treadmill when I go and today this young lady in front of me spent the entire 20 minutes she…

Chilean sea bass
I bought some to try but the way I normally ccok fish, in a fry pan with a marinade and cooking spray, didn't work for me. I found it quite oily/greasy any suggestions as I still have one more piece to cook? I typically buy tilapia or pollock but wanted to branch out and try something new. Also what kind of fish do you…

My name is Carrie and I love Richard Simmons
I know I can't be the only one out there. He is just so energetic and happy and I like that he has real people ( over weight not just skinny minnies) on his videos. I also like Tony Little for his upbeat energy. I know a lot of people find them annoying but I find they make me happy with their positiveness and given all…

Sodium....
So sodium is the bane of my existence. I am usually way over and the days I do keep it down I tend to go over on fat, I also find I am much hungrier when I eat less sodium. I drink at least six cups of water a day usually eight, and just FYI I only count actual water in my water count not my coffee or other liquids, so I…
