Foods Bananas or Mangoes? Nov 17 2008

I think they are both pretty healthy, but if you have a very active exercise routine, the banana is better after a strenuous workout.

I find it's hard to find healthy food from fast food chains that taste good and are low in calories. I try to find cafes or restaurants that you can call in orders that offer healthy tasty food like grilled chicken sandwiches, baked potatoes with broccolli, turkey burgers. When you are on the run I reccommend sandwiches or salads, but try to find time to eat, because you'll enjoy your food more and eat less! PS places like Chilis and Applebees are great and you can call in orders, some of the menu items even list calories! I haven't eaten at Mcdonalds or Taco Hell in over 5 years, and I don't feel like I am missing anything, because the last time I ate there I got sick, and I used to only eat fast food throughout high school and college. If I can you can!

Weight Loss How to stop snacking? Nov 13 2008

I love to snack sometimes more than I like to eat. For me, eating 6 small meals a day is perfect. You eat like every 3 hours and it's easier to eat less calories because you feel full. I've tried so many diets- shakes, onion soup, atkins, s. beach,ect. Eating 6 times a day, and counting calories was the one that got me to my lowest weight ever, I could never stay on the others. My cravings for junk food dissappear because I'm always eating. Sometimes it's annoying to plan and measure your meals, but the end result is worth it! It does take time, but I went from a size 6 to a size 3 in a couple of months.  Buy a food scale, it's the best investment!
