| You can make Shrimp Kabobs with all sorts of veggies... Just skewer the veggies/shrimp... Toss on the grill until cooked... And enjoy...
As for adapting, you can make sides to go with it... Rice works good... Or some other sort of carb? Baked Potatoes? Red Lobster Biscuits (If you could find a recipe...)? |

| Brown rice digests slower and doesn't cause your blood sugar to spike as high. (i.e. it keeps you full longer) | |||

| Crunches will make your abs very toned and defined... But you can't see toned and defined muscles if you've got a "pooch"... If you want to see your toned abs, you've gotta lose the fat with diet/exercise. | |||

| I gotta agree with alayney... Screw buying stuff at the theatre... It's all overpriced garbage!!!! You're much better off sneaking in something healthier... Maybe put some dry cereal into a Ziploc bag... Or bring some fruit... Or a Luna/Clif bar... There are a 1,000 better alternatives to the overpriced Popcorn/Candy | |||

| Well... First off! There is no magical food or exercise that is going to make the pooch disappear... Sad news to hear, I know... But it's the truth...
The only real way to get those gorgeous six-pack abs that you want oh so badly is to "diet" and exercise... And by "diet," I don't mean South Beach or Atkins, I simple mean counting calories and making better choices about the foods you eat... Unfortunately, there is no way to make fat vanish from a certain point. You can't do crunches to make your belly fat go away. What you have to do is lose fat by eating healthy and exercising until your pooch is gone. It could take a month, two months, four or five months... I make no promises as to how long... What I can tell you though, is that if you keep exercising and eating healthy and losing weight, eventually your pooch will be gone. What you can do to tone up the muscles in your abs is do exercises designed to target that area. Here's a link to an Abs Workout you might consider. |

| If you don't eat some of your calories back, you'll end up starving your body... Let's say you eat 1500 calories a day... And you're a girl, so your body needs at least 1200 calories a day... Also, let's pretend that you exercise daily and burn off 500 calories... In essense, those 500 calories you burn cancel out 500 of the calories you've eaten... So instead of being 300 calories above what your body needs to survive, you've put yourself under by 200 calories!!! Your body doesn't like "starving" so it tends to slow down your metabolism so that it won't be using as much energy... Slower metabolism = less weight loss... So that's why you need to eat some of them back... Make sure you never go below 1200 if you're a girl (1500 for guys)... Also, assuming you eat 1500 calories a day and you only burn off 300 from exercise... You don't have to eat any of them back because you'll be right at 1200... |

| I can totally relate... My Mom makes me feel bad daily... I have no problems cooking for myself... But for whatever reason, she insists on trying to cook for both of us...
She's gotten to the point now that she understands my dieting and she tries to find healthier things to cook with so that I'll eat it, too... But her perception of healthy is a little... Warped? And she gets upset if she buys something "healthy" that I won't eat because it isn't actually healthy (The other day she bought a lemon pepper marinade because we were grilling out shrimp and veggies... But the marinade was based with HFCS and loaded with sugar/salt...) I know she is just being a mother and trying to provide for me because she loves me and all that... But it's so frustrating when she makes me feel bad for not eating her unhealthy food... |
