turkey bacon/hot dogs
So I was pretty skeptical, by the way it looks in the package...does not look very good at all! I sent my boyfriend to get some bacon for the next morning (I never have/cook bacon but we were having guests for the night/next morning), and some hot dogs for grilling (yea its 24 degrees, but he would grill in a blizzard). He…

questions about gaining muscle mass
So when you are doing a lot of strength training, and eating right, and you dont see the results on the scale, you know you are gaining muscle, right? How long does it take to build 1 lb of muscle? How fast does this occur? I have not been keeping track of my inches for a while. Just curious! Also, we know muscle weighs…

eat this not that
Let's start a thread like the "eat this not that" book. I'll start. Anyone know of any post them here! Eat a 1/2 box of Junior Mints ( 170 calories), instead of 1 bag of M&M's (240 calories). More satisfying!

the "getting started blues"
Yep I got em. What did everyone do the first couple weeks to keep at it? Its easier once you lose like 10 or more because, when you have a bad day you can say, "well at least Ive come this far, I can go more". But you members who have lost, what did you do to keep on track in the very beginning?

Booze calories
I like to have drinks on the weekends, usually a Friday night. I get really bad hangovers, and the only thing to cure it seems to be really greasy food. I have heard a lot of people who have this problem also. And, if I have too many I tend to even have a binge before bed that night, eating whatever is in sight. I know the…

working out in the am before breakfast
I have heard a few people say that if you work out in the morning before breakfast, you are burning more stored fat, because you're not burning the calories you just ate if you ate breakfast. When I say work out, I mostly mean cardio, and not too high of intensity, for example, and elliptical machine. Any one know for sure?

my motivation haha
I watch Victoria's secret fashion shows on You Tube for motivation. It works everytime! I watch it if I'm unnecesarily hungry or right before a work out. Also I have a cut out of Jillian from The Biggest Loser with tape on the back of her that I can put up wherever I work out, or sometimes I put her on the fridge haha.
