Tell me 3 random things in your trunk. I will start: jumper cables (even more random because I live in the South with no snow), stuff to clean my car and helmet. Next!

Eat your water?
I was reading All You Magazine and they had the following information from Patrick Holford, author of The New Optimum Nutrition Bible. It is about water content in foods. If you have trouble drinking your water, maybe some high water content foods will help. (Obviously, you still need to drink your water, I just found this…

Glucosamine
Does anyone get nauseous after taking Glucosamine? I take one tablet, twice a day with food. Just started 2 days ago. Have a sick hubby, so I can't tell if I'm getting his germs or if it has to do with the Glucosamine. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks!

P90x Fit test
So, this may seem lame, but does anyone count calories burned for the FIT test? If so, what is your best guess on how many to count? I passed, but truly gave it my all and am SWEATING. (and even more scared than before!!!) Thanks friends!

Words of Encouragement...or What to say on a daily basis?
This is a blog I wrote, but I thought I'd share. SURELY, I cannot be the only one struggling to come up with some new way to encourage my buddies on here. So, I stole this list. Well, is it stealing if you cite your source? I guess not. Let me do the citation first, not in MLA format because I no longer am in college and…

AMAZING Peach Dessert!
This dessert is in my All You Magazine. I tried it tonight and it is AWESOME. I did change the recipe a smidge. It calls for some heavy cream to whip with sugar and put on top at the end. I used cool whip. I put it in the recipe analyzer (minus heavy cream and sugar) and it came up as 119 calories. With the cream, the…

Burning calories at rest
Just read this simple article. Thought I'd share. (By the way, you might want to check your resting calories burned after working out for a while. I did and now know I'm not subtracting enough from my workouts.) http://www.theweightlossdigest.com/dieting-logic/burn-more-calories-rest-increase-your-bmr.htm

When does it become normal activity?
I have a question. For my exercise, I only count activity that is above and beyond the norm. So I am trying to walk the dog every day because he needs it. It's a decent walk and I burn about 200 calories. When do I stop counting that in my exercise calories, or do I? What's your opinion? Thanks folks!:flowerforyou:

Question of the Day
Hey folks! Gotta question for ya. Now I know you should rest when you are sick. I get that. My question is about calories. I have been nauseous since yesterday. Cannot eat much. How do you think that affects the weight loss? Is it going to be just like not eating my calories if I felt good? I mean, I would eat them, but if…

Yummy Chocolate Snack!
If you are craving something sweet, and you have willpower not to eat LOTS, buy yourself some Gertrude Hawk Teenie Poppers. THEY ARE FABULOUS. They are tiny circles of chocolate about the size of a dime with different flawors (peanut butter, carmel, raspberry, etc.) I like the Raspberry ones. DISCLAIMER: Do not let this…

Important Question of the Day
Do you weigh yourself BEFORE or AFTER you exercise? I realize that after I exercise, I'm sweaty, etc. If I weigh before I will be less, but I'm just curious if this is what everyone else does. Thanks in advance!

Taste Buds Changing??
Hey everyone. So, I've been trying to eat healthier since January. (Yes, I'm one of the New Year's Resollution people!) And I started out slowly. Haven't been eating hardly any fried food. Didn't eat that much to begin with but I did love my french fries and cream sauces. I noticed now that when I have a taste of something…

how does it happen? top to bottom?
Ok, here's a dumb question. How do you lose the weight? top to bottom? bottom to top? fattest part first? most worked area? where you gained it last? What do you think?
