Stomach Adjusting
Hi everyone! I just moved to France (studying abroad for 6 months). And though I am LOVING the food here--it seems as though the food is perhaps not loving me. I've been here just over a week (I arrived the 1st of the year), and just in the last few days I've been getting a bit of an upset stomach--gas, irregular bowel…

Tired After Working Out... Why?
Hey MFPals! So I've been going to the gym more lately (zumba has finally gotten me off my behind), and I've been really enjoying my workouts. But I have this "problem" where, instead of being energized after a workout, I'll get maybe 5-10 minutes of energy, and then just get tired. My friend suggested that maybe I'm not…

Part time job cals
So I just started working part time at a coffee café--I'm on my feet the entire time I'm there (minus lunch breaks). Lately I've been putting it in as exercise--halving the time I'm standing at work and calculating it as "walking, slow, 2mph". I figure I'm not going like that all day, but I should be burning SOME extra…

VelaShape
Hey MFPs, I was just wondering if any of you have had VelaShape, have looked into it, etc. I just got home from a consult--it was kind of an accident actually (I was at a fair, signed up at a booth like, "Yeah, I'd love to have less cellulite", and got a call a few days later). I'm really nervous about doing anything like…

ZigZagging Calories
Hey guys, I'm fairly new to calorie counting, so I wanted to see what you guys thought of this. When I first started, probably about 2 months ago, I dropped my cals down to 1200 (after eating probably close to 3000 a day). I lost for a week or two, and then plateaued, so I upped my cals to 1400. Again, I lost, then…

Worst Foods in America
I just found this article. Horrifying, but good information for eating out. http://www.menshealth.com/20worst/worstkids.html I know this is the worst of the worst, but the fact that these even exist is pretty much a testament to America's ever-unhealthy relationship with food. I think the worst part is that people eat…

Good Girls Go To Paris Crepes
I was just wondering if anyone knew about how many cals are in their crepes.... obviously depends on the crepes, I know. I had part of one that was chicken, brie, sundried tomatoes, and pesto and part of another that was tomato, basil, mozzarella cheese, and balsamic vinaigrette. Any guesses??

More Cookies???!!! (Need help dealing with parents)
I really just need to rant for a few seconds so bear with me... My dad bought 4 boxes of Girl Scout cookies on Monday--which is cool; support the Girl Scouts (I used to peddle cookies, too). But one of those boxes is gone already (I haven't had any, and I don't think my mom has had any). And my dad just came home with 5…
