How do you stay at your sugar but still eat the carbs?
How do you stay under or at your sugars and yet still get all or most of the carbs in per day? I know that the recommended sugar is around 25-30 for women, but my carb recommendation is something like 175ish. What does a day of meals look where someone can achieve both of these numbers?

Boo :( Lost 30 pounds, still look gross
SO it is to be expected. I have lost 30 pounds since I got home from the hospital after having my fourth child. My body has been like a deflated (and very stretch-marked) balloon for over 7 years now. My first daughter really REALLY did me in. Sigh. Anyway, I was just looking at my before and after pics of my 30 pound lost…

Favorite Beach Body program?
Okay 2 questions 1: Best program for a semi-active person that hasn't really done strength training and has limited "equipment" (stretchy band, big exercise ball... and myself. lol) 2. Favorite program from them overall, regardless of fitness level? I'm curious because I keep hearing such good stuff and have been thinking…

Favorite Meatless Meals for a meat lover?? (no soy products)
Well we cannot eat soy products (allergies) but I am hoping to find some great meatless meals for my family. My husband is a big time meat eater and can't handle it when a meal doesn't have meat! It drives me crazy! I'll make a healthy whole grain veg/pasta dish and he'll eat 2 or 3 helpings before going to the fridge,…
