Fitness	First thing you drink in the morning?	Apr 19 2008 06:00 (UTC)	35
i have at least one glass of water and brew some coffee for the ride to work
Weight Loss	Coffee anyone?	Sep 20 2007 00:01 (UTC)	14
Hi Shalz, I don't think coffee is all that bad for you. If anything a little caffinee in the morning will kick start your motabolism or at least increase your heart rate. But in moderation. Make sure you're drinking plenty of water cause coffee like any caffinated drink, it will dehydrate you. Also go easy on the cream and sugar. Hope this helps. Paul "coffee addict"
Foods	Portable Meal Ideas?	Aug 30 2007 23:14 (UTC)	4
this is my portable meal. I carry this around.... Lite Rye bread & low fat deli meat (usually chicken or turkey) Pre-clean/chopped-up Bagged Veggies. I usually grab the carrots/broccoli. Any supermarket will have. some minerial water I find carbonate water more refreshing and fills me up better.

Foods	What takes AGES to eat?	Jul 18 2007 20:17 (UTC)	27
I like to eat pre-bagged/clean veggies. I go for the Broccoli/carrort/cauiflower mix. You can get it at the Canadian Superstore, but I am sure you can find something simular at any supermarket. I get very hungry during the afternoon and it seems to tam the beast so to speak.
Foods	I need more protein and less carb. Ideas please.	Jul 17 2007 19:28 (UTC)	3

One tub usually last about a 1-2 months depending how much you drink. this is what i drink 1 cup of Skim Milk, 1/2 cup of blueberries (if I have) 1 scoop of Whey Chocolate protein Total Cal. 210 34g of protien per serving Only 2 grams of Fat.
Fitness	How Do You Get Rid of Booty?	Jun 29 2007 19:02 (UTC)	3
hate to tell ya dear, but spot reduction doesn't work. You just have to keep burning fat. Cardio, cardio, cardio - Eventually it will disappear. Personally, I like women with some "junk in the trunk" ;)

Weight Loss	Ouch the sodium!	Mar 30 2007 23:48 (UTC)	3
I gave up on the sodium. I average like 2500-3000 a day. Sure I might get a kidney stone one day. But hey, I like to eat more than just raw veggies. And I love pickles.
Fitness	Does anyone get headaches when they run?	Mar 30 2007 19:28 (UTC)	1
You may need to focus on your form/breathing. Your body might be fighting to get enough oyxgen to all your muscles - head included. Do you get dizzy? How's your back? Any other symtoms?
Fitness	Does anyone know if you can get shin splints . . .	Mar 28 2007 23:37 (UTC)	2
Sounds like you are listening to your body. Good. I think you have to ease off on the walking. Shin splints are an "over-use" injury. Your muscule are still adjusting. When you start to feel pain especially if the pain starts sooner and sooner, than it's time to take a break from that particular excerise. Notice I said "break" from that excerise, not do nothing all together. I would recommend cross-training. When those shins start to get tender, do something else - like biking or swimming. I find if I stop excerising all together cause of some injury, I lose all motivation to stay healthy. hope this helps. -Paul

Weight Loss	how do you go about losing the belly fat??	Mar 13 2007 23:23 (UTC)	4
Hey Jim, Hate to tell ya, but if you're like me, the belly will be the last place you'll lose wieght. I tend to hold most of my fat around my med-section/love handles. Wasn't till I hit my target weight when I saw the ol'belly really disappear. Good luck, keep at it...it'll come off eventually.

Fitness	Sore Muscles	Mar 12 2007 22:13 (UTC)	5
I find if my legs are really sore the best thing to do is get the blood circulating. It helps remove the lactic acid. Instead of running find a stationary bike. Get the heart rate going but don't kill yourself. Get lots of sleep and drink water. Stretch before and especially after excerise.

i liked it to! I use to go to the gym all the time. I was offically nik-named "Stretch-boy" from one of the workers, cause I was always in the stretch room - stretching. Nothing wrong with pointing out funny stereotypes. I think someone needs to relax abit. it's friday
