Subway Help
The more I look at the mountain of dirty dishes in the sink, the better Subway sounds for dinner! LOL Does anyone know what the nutritional info would be if you took the bread out of the bread? (like they do on Biggest Loser). I do it all the time, just wondering how many calories & sodium it cuts out. I see tons of custom…

What Shape Am I?
I hope this is in the right place. I am going to my cousin's wedding next month and will have to, inevitably, go shopping. I feel like it would help if I knew what shape I am (other than round, LOL). I've lost a lot of weight, and there's stores I've been wanting to shop at (Buckle, Hollister, etc). Okay, so here's how I'm…

Weight Control for Kids
I just read an article that Rikki Lake is starting up a website to help kids deal with their weight issues (much like MFP helps us adults) http://www.thatsfit.com/2010/02/17/ricki-lakes-fight-against-childhood-obesity/?ncid=webmaildl3 I think it's great! Even though my child is not obese (she's actually on the skinny side…

Diabetics, Exercise, and Foot Problems
I'm a T2 diabetic, and in the last month or so I've noticed my toes start going numb when I walk/run. I have very comfortable running shoes, that fit well, but I'm concerned. I see my diabetes doc on Feb 3rd for regular checkup. I will certainly mention it to her, and hope that it's not neuropathy or anything. Should I be…

Eating Back Exercise Calories
Okay, so I think the lightbulb FINALLY came on. Shut it off if it's completely out of order. Say I eat 1200 calories a day. Now, let's say in a day I workout & burn off another 1,000. If I don't eat back those 1,000 calories, does that mean I only ate 200 calories that day? 1200 - 1000 = 200. If that's true, then I now…

Green Tea vs. Energy Drinks?
Okay, so I've been reading a little about green tea and how they affect weight loss. It seems to me that the thing speeding up one's metabolism is the caffeine in the tea. So what's the difference, diet-wise, between drinking green tea & a 0 cal, high-caffeine drink? Or am I completely off base?

Sodium in Condensed Soups
Does anyone know if the nutritional value of condensed soup changes at all after adding water to it? I was just wondering if the sodium went down at all, and if so, by how much? thanks!

Help with HRM
I got a Sportline S12 HRM for Christmas. It didn't come with much more instructions than on how to set it up. So I was wondering how I calculate my calories burned (it said I was in my target zone during my workout). It has calories burned for a built in pedometer. I had the ped turned on during my wii workout, since I do…

Mimi's Cafe Chocolate Pie?
I can't find any nutritional information ANYWHERE for the slice of pie we got from Mimi's Cafe last night. It was a lovely chocolate mousse delight, similar to Village Inn's French Silk Pie. The slice from Mimis was only as large as putting your fingertips together, with your thumbs touching side by side (does that make…

Healthy Choice
I just wanna give props to Healthy Choice! For the longest time, I have enjoyed Healthy Choice frozen meals. One day I decided to try Lean Cuisine, and Smart Ones, and couldn't believe how high they are in sodium. It's ridiculous. Then I compared them to Healthy Choice. HC has half the sodium of LC & SO's. How can weight…

Supremely Supreme Pizza
So I was looking at how many calories, typically, are in a slice of pizza. It looks like 400-600 from any of my favorite restaurants. THERE'S GOT TO BE A BETTER WAY TO EAT PIZZA! I am going to find out tomorrow. I bought ingredients tonight to make pizza, and by my prediction, I can eat 1/4 of the pizza for the same amount…

Dr. Bork Bork's Totally Rad Cheeseburger Wraps
So I came up with this crazy idea to make a cheeseburger wrap for dinner. IT WAS DELICIOUS! As with my last crazy recipe/idea, you can feed your family for less than $15 with this recipe: (This is what I paid) 4 Boca All American Grilled Patties ($3.00) 4 Tomatoes ($1) 1 Sweet Onion (50c) 1 Pickle (probably not a whole lot…

Boca Burgers
Okay, so I am trying to find a low cal alternative to hamburger patties. We recently tried Garden Burgers and HATED them! We couldn't get past the texture or taste. I had a boca burger patty at Red Robin recently, but it was chopped up with chili and served over fries (which was killer, btw, highly recommend it!). So I…

Low Sodium Meal
So I only have 190 sodium left for one of my meals tomorrow. It's either breakfast or lunch. I also have 600 calories I need to fill. Does anyone have any meal suggestions that would meet these requirements?

Gum
So... *making random conversation* What's everyone's favorite brand of gum? Mine is 5. Love their Zing flavor. Munching on Solstice right now. Wasn't as impressed with at first, but now it's very refreshing. Was very disappointed in Stride gum. IMO, 5's flavor lasts a whole lot longer than Stride. Just curious, I guess.…
