| Fitness | How Many Calories Do You Burn At The Gym?? | Oct 01 2007 15:47 (UTC) |

| I really don't get too tired during the day, but i eat quite a bit of calories each day usually around 1800-2100. I mainly do it for stress relief. My husband just started going to underwater welding school in Houston which is 6 hours away from me, and then someone stole my dog last week, so i mainly do it so i don't have to think about anything else. But on days i am feeling sore i will usually switch it up to something more low impact, or take the night off. But typically i am just fine. thanks for the concern though ;) | |||

| hahaha...when i switched over to the "upgraded" calorie count it said you like....Salad, fat free italian dressing and bud light! i was toally called out by the new program...but it made me laugh out loud :P
...i get the same kind of food suggestions though... for instense instead of spinach salad it recommeded romain lettuce...but maybe that was a better suggestion with all of the ecoli scares going around....:) |

| Weight Loss | I don't understand binge's | Sep 28 2007 20:46 (UTC) |

| Here is a question...kind of on the same topic... Is it still considered a binge if you stay within your daily limit?? Since i started working out again (60 min cardio 6 nights a week plus 3 days of weights) I will do great all day at work, and then when i get home i am ravenous. Like last night i went home and had 5 snackwell devils food cookies, a large bowl of honeynut cheerios and 5 pizza bites!! as soon as i got home. But at the end of the day i was still within my limit. Is this terrible? | |||
| Weight Loss | Does anyone have trouble actually eating enough calories | Sep 28 2007 01:36 (UTC) |

| fma424---i know exactly how you feel, i tend to work out anywhere from 750cal to 1300cal per day and my intake has to be so high that i usually have some kind of sweets to offset my numbers. I guess i should try the whole extra nuts/peanut butter idea...but i do love my "treat" each day :) | |||
| Weight Loss | ICE CREAM and CHOCOLATE are calling my name!!! | Sep 27 2007 20:52 (UTC) |

| I am a huge ice cream fan...and lactose inntolerant (go figure)...but i take a pill and head for the carton. There are always the skinny cow brand ice cream, fudge pops, and i just found out two days ago that the snickers ice cream bars (look like the candy bar) only have 180 calories! So they have become my new vice ;) Chin up, you are definatly not alone. I like to eat the ice cream...and then just add about 10 more minutes to my workout...so i don't feel as guilty :) | |||

| I feel your pain...I do a lot of cardio (about 60 minutes as 6 nights a week) plus light weight training 3 days a week, so i have to take in about 1800-2000 calories per day. I have yet to have a day where i got up to 2000 calories without having something on the list that is...lets just say "less then healthy" :) (i love ice cream!!) But i will keep an eye on this post because i would also like to know how people can get 2000 calories in without an "unhealthy" snack..or two :) thanks for the post! | |||

| Do you have a bike? That would probably help you tone up your legs quite a bit. That is one of the first things i notice about cyclist is they always have amazing legs. I also like the bike idea because just about anybody can do it. :) Hope this helps! Good luck and great job so far!

| ...oh yes the dreaded weights :p ...I knew i would have to start to incorporate them sooner or later. But now for the sake of my butt it looks like i will have to start :) *thanks Michael of the great advice. I will start incorporating some squats and lunges into my routine and see how that goes. I do have a question though...I do alot of cario typically 60 min 6 days a week, and an additional 30-45 minutes mon, wed, & fri mornings. When would be the best time to do the lunges and squats...before or after my cardio? any advice would be greatly appreciated. thanks again | |||
