Weight Loss is there such a thing as to much water? Apr 04 2012

In theory there is such a thing as too much water, mostly in relation to not getting enough electrolytes in addition to the water or drinking a large volume quickly. I would say 64 to 100 oz is not even close to too much. ( I drink about the same amount).

I love spaghetti squash. I find alone it really has no flavor but it takes on the flavor of whatever you add it to. think I'm having some tonight, lol!
Weight Loss how many calories do you need to burn. or be in the minus to lose 1kg? Mar 27 2012

A pound is 3500 calories. 2.2 pounds in a kg. So multiply 3500 by 2.2 and there you go.

I would say "you worry about your workout and I will worry about mine!" can't stand the judgmental nature of the gym, as evidenced by most of the responses here. I may not be doing it "right" but I'm doing something which is better than nothing.

Create a custom food, that will allow you to put in calories and nutritional info as well as to save for later reuse.

Not sure if this fits but I treat myself to a pedicure every two weeks when I stick to my goals. I live in Arizona where it is always flip flop weather and between my workouts and being a nurse on my feet 12hr shifts I love a good pedicure! Usually costs me $35 (that's with the tip).

I personally burn more calories on the elliptical. But I think it is like anything, you get out what you put in. Ultimately what you feed your body will matter most. Best wishes on your journey.
Weight Loss Abnormal Thyroid and Losing Weight Feb 07 2012

I have had hypothyroidism for about ten years now. When I was first diagnosed my yah level came back at somewhere around 23. When my tag is above 2.5ish now I can tell and I don't feel real well. Perhaps they do need to treat and maybe you should seek a second or third opinion. Even when my tag was at it's highest I didn't realize how poorly I felt until it was corrected. Good luck!

I love shrimp on mine, high protein so it keeps me full. I sautéed the shrimp in a little olive oil and spices then use the leftover oil in the pan as the dressing, YUMMY!

My experience has been that it works very inconsistently, but I use the manual entry option a lot and like that.
Calorie Count balancing scales ? Jan 24 2012
01:26 (UTC)

If you are trying to lose weight you want the scale to be in the negative at the end of the day. You need a defect of 3500 calories to lose one pound. I shoot for negative 500 each day which in theory will average to one pound lay in a week.

Thanks. I generally have the meal my family is eating (chicken, pork, etc) at that time and a large salad at my 2 am meal. I'm new to this and am trying to view it as a lifestyle change and not a diet so I want to do it right, so to speak, so that I can stick with it. I appreciate the advice!
