Belly Fat Cure
So, I am a big fan of the Flat Belly Diet. My friend recently bought the book Belly Fat Cure and has been doing it lately. It is similar to Flat Belly Diet, but just basically watching your sugar and carb intake. Anyone tried it? My friend (who is fit and doesn't need to lose much) said she definitely lost in the first…

Belly Fat Cure
So, I bought this book, and tried it for 1 week, OMG! It totally works. I lost 4 lbs in 1 week, and that's A LOT for me - I was only 6 lbs away from goal weight. This is totally logical way to eat. No, I didn't meet my calorie goal every day, sometimes I was WAY under and sometimes WAY over. But I would seriously recommend…

To Buy or Not To Buy...
P90X Here's my questions: 1. What if I can't find the 1 hr. plus every day??? Can I just do the next day when I get to it? Example, If I work out Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday and then don't have time Thursday, can I do Thursday's workout on Friday? 2. Do you actually lose any weight, or is it just muscle building? 3. I…

Paula Deen French Toast
Hi! Someone has posted "Paula Deens Baked French Toast Casserole - Lightened Version" on the food database and I am wondering how you lightened it? Was it good? I made it today and figured out that 1/15 of her recipe had almost 1000 calories in it! YIKES!!!!! If you are the one who posted it, let me know!

LUNA Bar
I eat these on a regular basis - 180 cals, a good breakfast for me or mid afternoon snack when I can't wait for dinner. I usually eat the Nutz Over Chocolate and occasionally the Carmel Nut Brownie. They are pretty good, but I always kinda "tolerated" the taste thinking that's just what you get in an energy/vitamin bar.…

gained. . . .so sad
So I gained a little over a pound last week and have been not wanting to log it, thinking, I'll lose it this week. Well, turns out I was wrong! ARG! This is particularly frustrating to me because I was into the last "decade" of my weight loss, and now I am not. I am not 100% sure why I have gained this and then not lost…

Activity Level or Exercise?
Ok, I have been helping my sister at her very busy restaurant 2 days a week by waiting tables. I run like crazy (15 tables on my own) for about 4 hours straight, no break, no sitting, no time to use bathroom! Anyway, I have my activity level set to light, or whatever is the 2nd level and noticed that the 3rd level includes…

I AM SOOOOOO SORE!
I got the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred DVD yesterday and it completely kicked my butt! I was fine during and after the workout, but this morning I could not move. It literally worked EVERY muscle in my body. I did it again today, even though I can barely walk, but I'm gonna do it dang it!:wink: I would definitely…

PF Changs - OMG!
So, my hubby and I went out to dinner tonight with no kids:drinker: and the only place we could get into was PF Changs. OK, OK, I know it is really bad, but this is what happened: we ordered the spare ribs and I KNOW they are bad, so I ate only 1. Then we ordered the Kung Pao Shrimp and ate only 5 shrimp (there was like 40…

diet pop cake question
Ok, yesterday someone mentioned diet pop cake, which I had never heard of. I read back in some of the older posts and tried it last night. It was REALLY good! But, it was kinda in between cake and brownie texture, it that how it's supposed to be, or did I do something wrong?

let's talk about Wii, BA-BY!
Ok, has anyone gotten to the "advanced step aerobics"? It actually got considerably faster and I am considering counting it as "low impact aerobics", what do you think?

what's for dessert???
My husband wants to go to the grocery store and get a slice of THE BEST cake with frosting - I'm sure it must have about 1000 calories per slice, so does anyone have any other ideas for me (around 250 calories?) that I can get that's already baked/made from a grocery store?

What is your. . . . .?
What is your single best piece of advise for those trying to lose weight and become healthier? Mine: Find something that gets your mind off of food - stop thinking about it constantly, even if it is planning for healthy meals. Too much thinking leads to too much creativity, then too many calories!

Wii Fit
OMG!!!!!!! This thing is SOOOOOOOOOOO awesome!!! You have to get one! I have been on it for about 35 minutes now and have tried a bunch of different exercises. It is cool because it makes you master certain skills before unlocking a harder workout. For example, a run - it makes you go for only 3 minutes at a time until you…

Doughnuts
Does anyone here think it is odd that the food database shows that a glazed doughnut only has 118 calories? I thought doughnuts were WAY worse for you than that. The reason I ask is that we used to get a doughnut every Saturday morning last summer (it is like a 4 mile walk round trip, and pushing a double stroller) and I…

Calories consumed question
Do I really have to eat all of my calories - including my exercise ones? I just finished dinner and still have 472 calories to eat today after I add in my exercise stuff. I am really not hungry after dinner and usually have 200-400 calories left. I have been trying to lose my last 10 lbs forever now and started this…

calories burned question
This is probably a stupid question, but. . . . . If you are trying to eat 1200 calories a day, and you burn 300 by exercising, does that mean you are supposed to actually eat 1500 calories in order to net out at 1200, or are you still supposed to just eat 1200?
