When ever I drink coffee on an empty stomach the caffeine hits me instantly, and then i crash an hour later. but if i drink it after a meal it is lake it's slow release, and keeps me going at a constant rate, then lets me down easy. |

If your breathing your burning. just living burns cals. as melkor said sweating is a indication of your body temp, but it can be a good indicator of your intensity level. try using a heart rate monitor, and finding your heart rate zone. |

Omelet. I know it sounds simple, but I have made it so much and so many variations that I can make an amazing one for any occasion. |

Hmm... sounds like what you need is exercise. nothing extreme, just some long walks with some jogging thown in, or light resistance training. but eating more, and then turning around an immediately burning it off will definitely force your metabolism to get moving. |

You sound just like I did when I started CC (I"m 17 BTW). I was eating around 10% or less fat a day out of 2000 cals. well long story short it srewed up my liver, which is just now geting back to normal. I try for around 20-30% fat per day, with good fats like avocados, nuts, and alot of sesame oil. |

Very little of the nutrents are lost in the cooking proccess, and the amount of lose is affected by how long ,and hot you cook them. CC has the listing for food both raw and cooked. |

good for you, keep it up.Well... ok, maybe that is alittle exsisive(depending on you calorie needs), but it's good to eat the most in the morning: it gives you energy to burn more cal during the day, it makes your matablism start earlyer burning more cals, and if you screw up in the AM's you still have the whole day to fix it, insted of having to go to bed with extra cals in your tummy. So if you have to screw up, or have a high cal splurge do it in the morning and reap some rewards. |
