almond milk??
I am extremely confused about almond milk. I bought unsweetened almond milk as I heard it was good (i.e. better nutritional value and lower cals and fat) for making shakes and what not. I have read many articles about almond milk vs cows milk and I must say, the science is approving and disapproving of both. The comments…

small NSV but its a start!
I joined a gym the first week of December and have worked out 3-4 days per week since. The last 2 weeks have been very busy and my family was struck with illness, but I did continue to do some exercise at home. This week I'm back at it. I usually do the same routine at the gym as long as I have the time, if not I cut out a…

cardio or strength
Hello. As I am starting out a healthy lifestyle I joined a gym. Its a bit costly, but I think it's worth it. However, it is more than double the cost to have a personal trainer assist me at this gym, and although it may worth it in the long run, I cannot afford it at this time. My question is, if I am just starting out,…

exercise and menstruation
So I apologize as I know a lot of men use this site, but I am curious and am hoping to find some answers. I started working out on a regular schedule on December 5th. 30min, 45min, 60min workouts 3-5 days/week. Before this schedule I was pretty sedentary, working out here and there when I felt like it, (maybe once a week…

NSV and first post in success stories!!!!
I have been a member on this site for quite a while and I don't always track my calories, but I have never quit being conscious of what I eat and my exercise. I have only lost about 2 lbs, and it actually fluctuates quite a bit so sometimes the scale says I have lost nothing.......BUT, in the last 2 weeks, doing 30 day…

SODA!!!!!
mountain dew is my weakness! I quit drinking soda and work out and I can lose weight over a period of time, but then I gradually sneak in a soda here and there, which turns into one soda a week, then 2 a week, then one a day, and then I lose it and the calories I burn from working out basically end up cancelling the…

From Northwest Iowa!
Hello- I'm not really new, but I started last year sometime and then got a bit off track after starting school and a new job:( Anyone looking for friends can feel free to add me. I can't promise I'll be much help to anyone because I am very busy and it is hard to find time to track every day. I usually keep track on paper…

Whats for meals??
I think I would benefit from eating 5 or 6 small meals every day than eating 3 and trying to keep a few calories so I can have a snack later, it seems like I am always hungry, at least when I have nothing to keep me busy. so, my question is, what does everyone eat for each meal? I understand that they wont be 4 course…

work schedules
I work 10hr overnights and want to know if there is anyone else in this situation and how you track your food for this time period?? I am up for a majority of the day because I take a class, have regular household chores that need to be done, and I also keep my kids home with me to save money on daycare, so I usually eat 3…
