v8 or at home juice?
I don't seem to get my servings of vegetables unless I eat a salad each day. I've been contemplating getting a juicer so that I could mask the taste of veggies since I'm not a huge fan of many by themselves. My husband on the other hand thinks it might be a waste of money because of all of the fruits and veggies needed to…

tracking exercise
My husband and I plan to spend a full day (maybe two, depending on what our little one allows us to accomplish) at the mall of America. Can I track the walking around the mall all day as my exercise? If so, how would I do that? I haven't ordered my HRM yet, and even if I did, I doubt it would be here in time. TIA!

Looking for supportive/interactive friends
I'll take any and all friends, but I am looking for more supportive ones who will look at my diary and give me feedback, comment on my posts, etc... Also friends who have open diaries so that I can get ideas for meals, ways to stay under, etc... I will say that I did not track this weekend due to being out of town/busy,…

question for runners
I've just started to run, and I have terrible blisters on the backs of my heels. I've been walking miles upon miles for awhile now, and occasionally get blisters, but not this bad. I'm going to look for new shoes tomorrow, but is this a continuous thing? Will my feet "toughen up" and stop being so easily susceptible to…

How to raise calories
I think I want to raise my calories because I am not so good at planning in how many calories I will burn and need to eat back. Often times my net is really low because I don't exercise until later in the day usually, and then I am trying to eat all of these calories at the end of the day. I feel if I had more calories to…

No way of cooking, ideas?
We are getting all of our electric updated today, so the power is off leaving me no way to cook (our stove is electric). Any ideas for meals today? Whether it be something I can make without cooking, or something healthy to pick up. I've only had two pieces of fruit (a cutie, and a banana) today, so I need to come up with…

Never going to get this food thing down (suggestions?)
I'm sure I will eventually, but it seems like I am messing up something each day. It's all a learning process that is for sure. I was paying attention to the sugar, protein, carbs, etc... but now I just try to stick to staying under calories and sodium. That being said, would it be terrible to not eat back all of the…

Looking for friends
I'm looking for someone to be semi-accountable to. Not necessarily someone who is in my face asking me if I've done everything I am supposed to do, but rather just to chat and find out how we are doing with our weight loss journey/ lifestyle change. About me: I'm pretty friendly, so I think I would be able to get along…

Staying under everything, meeting net questions.

ISO simple recipe
Looking for a simple (around 6 ingredients or less) recipe that is made of whole ingredients (nothing processed). Any ideas? Also, my daughter and I both have an iron deficiency, so if you know something with iron that would be great, but it's not a big deal if not. TIA!

low sodium foods
This is my first post, so sorry if it's in the wrong topic! I have tried Google, but all I find is list after list of processed food. I am trying to cut out as much processed as possible, but I keep going over in sodium. Obviously I still eat processed foods, but my goal would be to make meals (especially dinner) out of…

Needing motivation or help (Menstrual help)
I had my daughter 15 months ago, and have not gotten that "time of the month" until last month, so this is my second month since having her. I'm feeling very crampy, and nauseous. I've never experienced cramps prior to having her, so I took some Excedrin (because I had no ibuprofen or midol). I Googled afterwards and found…

question about 30 DS
I am starting today, but I will be taking a weekend mini-vaca to Mackinaw on the 26th-28th. What should I do about the program? I would LOVE to do it in the hotel room, but I am sharing with in-laws, so forcing them to wait for me to do a workout seems selfish, and weird/awkward. I was thinking of doing it the 26th (before…
