Basa Fillets
Since I have changed my eating habits, I am trying new foods. I've never liked fish or ate fish (except Tuna with TONS of Mayo). My friend suggested Basa fillets as they are a very mild fish. She said oven bake them with some lemon. I guess I over cooked them (375 for 30 minutes) and they were pretty dry and tasteless.…

Best NSV from a friend
I've been at this a while now, watching food intake and exercising. I've only discussed my weight (in detail) with a few close friends. I was explaining to one of them how my trainer has me doing things now that I would have never, ever been able to do 4 months ago. How hard he is working me and really pushing me. She said…

what consitutes a short girl?
I always read on the forums how women eat 800, 900, 1,000 calories because they are "short". So what height is considered to be short for a woman?

Told my trainer that I’m running about a minute now or more. Just count in my head while running. My trainer told me to try to time myself. So found an egg timer in…

Jogging and ...peeing
I have decided I'm going to run. So to start I'm jogging as long as I can and then walking. I can jog a minute or so and then walk. I can do this about 5 times then I HAVE to PEE. I have to turn around and walk quickly back home to use the bathroom. Is it because of my weight (200 lbs) and age (50)? As soon as I get…

My first NSV
I have been working out with a trainer for about 3 months now. I was on the machine doing the "flys" (I think that's what it's called). We were done and just chatting when a woman came up and asked if we were finished. My trainer says yeah were done, and I get up to leave. She checks the weight and yells "70 pounds!" We…
