Chocolate Banana Strawberry Smoothie
This is a really yummy concoction I thought up. Im sure others have thought of it, but I will post it anyways if you wanna try it. Blend a cup or two cups of Silk Milk Chocolate Soy milk (you can also use light soy if the calorie intake is to much for you) in a blender with ice until ice is crunched up. Then mix in a…

Does anybody do this?
When I go over my calories by ALOT, I tend to say to myself, "well you might as well eat a few more cookies, since you already went over your calories today" HAHA!:laugh: I know I can't be the only one who does that. But anyways, I feel like I am sucking at this. Eating healthy is a lot harder than I thought it was. I know…

crunches/ab question.
Ok, heres the deal. I usually have a lot of knowledge about working out but this has always confused me. In order to get those washboard flat abs I know you have to have a good diet, but also when I do crunches at the gym do I NEED to suck your stomach in while doing them? Will it be pointless to even do crunches if you…

And when my boyfriend asks, "what do you…

Healthy Food?
I'm having trouble distinguishing healthy food from non-healthy food, only when it comes to certain foods. Obviously all fast food is unhealthy and cookies, brownies, icecream and all that isn't good for you unless they are specifically made the be healthy. But what about a breakfast like this, 2 servings of 3/4 cups honey…

You guys have some really good advice!
So here goes another question... this one may be a little confusing, but bear with me. Ok, say that you eat fruit and a granola bar for breakfast, mcdonalds for lunch, and jimmy johns for dinner. The lunch and dinner were bad stuff, but the breakfast was good. And you went to the gym for an hour and burned enough calories…

What I have always wondered about cookies...
...and other snacks. haha. If I didn't go over my recommended calories and I eat cookies and milk as a snack and I still don't go over my calories after doing so, are those cookies STILL turning into fat?? Same goes for other kinds of snacks, chips, icecream, ect. My boyfriend once told me that someone could go throughout…

Coldstone
I don't know if you guys know, but Coldstone Creamery posts their nutritional values on mix-ins, toppings, icecream, EVERYTHING on their website. Its actually not as bad as I thought it was either, calorie wise. In the like-it size Birthday Cake Remix, its 635 calories, I thought it was at least 1,000, because it comes…

Crunches on a body ball
Ok, I know that its not really considered cardiovascular work out. But do you burn a good amount of calories doing crunches on a body ball? I would like to know, because I don't have access to an elliptical or treadmill tonight and I would like to burn a little bit of calories. :heart: Danielle

Elliptical question
Ok, I worked out for an hour today on my boyfriend's elliptical on resistance:9, the highest is 10. It said that i burned 936 calories and 292 fat calories. Which one do I count in my workout section? It doesnt seem right that I burned only 296 in that long of time. My friend sarah's elliptical doesn't even have fat…

I don't even know why I eat the crap, it literally makes me feel like crap and its…

I have a question
Ok, this kind of confuses me. My daily calorie intake is supposed to be 1,400 calories. So say I were to eat breakfast, lunch and dinner and I got up to 1,400 calories or maybe even a little over, and then I worked out for and hour and burned 500 calories, does that mean after my workout I need to eat those calories back.…

Oh well, I will just look better…

I need to complain for a minute..haha
Ok, heres the deal. I am sick of my mom telling me, "your skinnier than me, shut up with the calorie counting" and my sister getting annoyed at me counting calories at restraunts we go to. I mean, what is wrong with wanting to eat better and be a little healthier, and maybe get rid of love handles??? I know at times I can…
