Clean-eating dessert suggestions?
It seems that after eating dinner, I am not satisfied until I have something sweet (fruit doesn't cut it for me). I am trying to eat clean, so no processed foods. Does anyone have suggestions? I have been eating my Bear Naked cookies everyday, but am wanting some variety.

What am I doing wrong?
I feel like I'm missing the secret to losing weight here. I am doing Turbo Fire and working out 6 days a week, busting my butt. I have changed my diet to clean eating, making the best choices I can without going extreme. My calories stay around 1200 net daily, with only a few slips-ups. So what's wrong? What isn't the…

First off, I know I should not be weighing myself day and that my weight fluctuates. But I do. It keeps me accountable. I'm just trying to figure out how it is possible to wake up 3 lbs heavier one day from the next? I ate out last night, but was reasonable.

HRM Fat Burn vs Fitness
I have a Polar FT4 I use during my Turbo Fire workouts. During a normal workout my heart rate stays around 160, which on the FT4 is in the "fitness" zone.
