Oh sugar, why do we have a love hate relationship!?
Anyone have ideas about not craving or eating junk? I don't buy junk, don't get me wrong, but boy can I bake it! Like that's all I want. If I had a choice between steak and a piece of cake for dinner, I'd take the cake! ;) Even just eating chocolate chips! Sweets are my weakness! I try so hard, and even when I go with out…
Protein Poweder
So I noticed that the protein powder I bought has 20 carbs and 20 pro. Is that right!? That seems kinda high in carbs for a protein shake....:>/ Is that right? :(

Diet Coke ok. Right...?
So, I drink one Diet Sprite or Dt. Mt. Dew, or Dr. Pepper, (just depending on what I want) a day on my drive home. Since those diet drinks have no cals, or carbs, and I think the sugar is pretty low, if not 0, their ok right? It's one a day, and shouldn't stop me from loosing....???

Does it matter if you eat a small protein snack before or after you work out?? Is there general guidelines on that?
Question on taking pics.
Mostly for the ladies, but when you take your pics esp the 'after; pics do you hold your stomach in? I don't mean SUCK it in but hold it in? Or do you let it all hang? ;) I constantly hold it in just for posture and strength... jw:)

I was planning on eating light because honestly, I wanted to binge a little tonight ;) just keeping it in my range though. I was going to go…
Eating left over calories/carbs.
Ok, what if I'm below my goal today? Can take the left overs and use them for tomorrow? Like if me and my friend go out, can I use them for dinner and such?? Is that ok/wise? Does my question make sense? lol
Abs, esp for ladies
Ok, I've seen alot of ladies on here have some great abs!! What is your routine? Do you work abs every day? Sit ups? Side crunches? How many?
