great NPR story about antibiotics in our meat
I found this to be a very interesting segment on npr that I would like to share with you. Its about the antibiotics that are in a majority of our (the US) meat and how potentially dangerous that is. It's an insightful listen if you have the time. I downloaded the mp3 at work and listened to it. Yet another reason why I'm…

Why should I go VEGAN??
That question has been rolling around in my head lately (for various reasons) and this post is for those people that really want to know why some choose to go vegan. I have just made the decision to go vegan, for not only my health but the health of animals and the health of the world. Before judging my decision, think…

I'm in love with the Doctor...
Doctor Who that is!!! I am so addicted to this show and cannot get enough! Anyone else have this problem? I have a weird situation because I started watching around season 4 to the end and just restarted at season 1 to watch all the ones I missed and I'll be so sad when it's over ;(

Health concerns about dairy products

Added benefits of eating vegan
I read this article the other day and its great to see that vegan eating is way more than just weight loss.

Has anyone had success with the Flat Belly Diet?
I am new to MFP and returning to the Flat Belly Diet, a diet I went on about a year ago, but quit because it was too expensive. I was doing boot camp classes at the same time, so in 30 days I lost 15 pounds and some of that was definitely belly fat. Since that was the only time in my life that a diet has had such dramatic…

Any ideas for meals with little to no sugar?
I'm having trouble with my sugar intake lately (or maybe forever). I didn't really notice it until I started tracking it, but I'm over on sugar almost every day and pretty stable with everything else. Some of that is fruit, I do eat a lot more fruit as snacks than I do veggies (maybe I should switch that up?) and some of…

Any Call of Duty fans on here?
Just curious. Other than yoga, call of duty is my favorite hobby :) I only play Black Ops though, didn't like MW3 as much.

Do you ever feel obligated to eat?
I'm pretty sure "obligation" is where most of my pounds came from. Sometimes, when food is given for free or when I'm at a cookout or something, I feel like I have to eat it just because its there (and free). Same thing with buffets and such (which is why I try to avoid them). But it is a very hard feeling to overcome. For…
