PB&Co. cinnamon raisin swirl
For those of you who eat this kind, do you ever stir it up when you first open it since pretty much ALL of the raisins are at the bottom of the jar? If so, do you notice that the jar is literally a quarter of the way gone after?? Its so annoying! Im thinking maybe its kind of "whipped" at first and stirring it makes it…

I Can't Believe its not Butter Fat Free
So I discovered "I cant believe its not butter" fat free version and somehow there are only 5 calories per tablespoon?!?! Its obviously not as tasty as normal butter but its definitely good enough for only being 5 calories and zero grams of fat!! I know there are probably tons of weird processed ingredients in it but I'm…

HRM question
I use my HRM every day and it works great but for some reason today, it wasnt counting my calories right. It said I burned like 20 calories after running for 20 minutes (which I know I burn around 115 calories running for 20 minutes). The time and everything else was right. Could the battery in the chest strap be dieing??…

cramped up legs??
So I either go on a long power walk or run on my treadmill for my cardio exercise every day and last night I ran on the treadmill, like always, for less time actually (only 20 mins) and my calves were a little sore after for some reason but i didnt think anything of it. Then, in the middle of the night, I woke up with…

views on sugar free water flavoring packets
I never had a problem drinking straight bottles of water and still dont but recently, I tried a zero calorie (zero everything) sugar free water flavoring packet and it was soooo delicious, its like a treat!!

weight fluctuation
I dont understand why my weight fluctuates so much every single day. I'm not too worried about it and i know you shouldn't weigh yourself every day but I do for the heck of it and I'm just interested in why one day it will say 124.5 then the very next day it will say 126.8, then 125 and so on. I eat about the same amount…

calories in marinated chicken breast
Occasionally, I will have a piece of marinated grilled chicken breast (with skin and bone) from a local restaurant called Phils Chicken house. Its grilled but definitely very greasy and i know at least the skin packs in tons calories so I never eat that part. If I'm only eating the white breast meat under the skin, about…

Hello! My husband and I are hiking the tallest mountain in the Catskills this week. Neither of us have hiked before so I'm excited/nervous. I'm not sure what to expect. I know we will be hiking a good portion of the day so I was wondering what to bring for food to keep my energy up. I hear things like trail mix is good to…

low fat/cal. alternatives to peanut butter??
Hey everyone! I LOVE peanut butter. I eat extremely healthy so obviously I don't usually eat regular peanut butter. I buy the all natural organic kind. I have tried pretty much every brand as long as the ONLY ingredients are peanuts and salt. Anyway, they all have around 180-200 calories and 16g of fat per 2 tbs. serving.…
