Has anyone tried that new flavored syrup made with splenda? Comes in all kinds of flavors, usually by the coffee stuff in the store. It rocks, I put the vanilla flav in my diet rite and in my oatmeal. May be good with a dab in yogurt too.

Damn Daisy! You have given me inspiration! We are in the process of building a house and selling the old one and I am so out of focus! I have gained 10 lbs and am just so mad at myself! I have had an 'I don't care, I love food' attitude lately. House will be done right before xmas I must get...

Thanks, FitFossil- That is exactly the response I was hoping for! I agree. Sometimes I just get so stunned from what I hear come out of people's mouth I just can't say anything....my chin is on the floor!

Okay, Could this work, a woman I work with is doing it for the 3rd or 4th time.....mmmmhmmm. She says this book says ALL carbs turn to sugar and they are bad. You go on this diet and can have like 5-10 carbs a day and for one hour out of that day you can eat whatever you want during that hour...

Oh, I remember having my wisdom teeth pulled. I thought I felt great later that day. I was up running around the house then I fainted in the bathroom....heh-heh. Complete recovery though. I got this on a CKD board little different work-out routine: Monday: AM - cardio on an empty stomach and...

Humm, maybe I am eating too much cheese. I will try & up the fat. I have found it very hard to reach my 1500 cal range with no carbs too! Still playing around with that & understanding how CKD works. I just tested tonight and I am at a "trace" so I guess it just takes me a while. I have been...

Sorry to jump in Courtney, but I too have been having trouble. I started CKD Monday and it is now Thursday and it appears I am no where close to ketosis!? I also checked the scale and I haven't lost. I thought there may be some loss. I am wondering if I haven't been eating enough? Maybe I didn't...

I lost 50 lbs on WW and have kept if off for about 3yrs. I think it is a great plan for people new to the "learning to eat right" & "portion control" routine. Excellent place to start! I am now to the point where I am wanting to get leaner, WW would not be a good choice for me because I am...

Yes, it seems to have good bits of info. You can find it at Borders or other book stores. It only comes out 4x a year?? I can't remember. May be why you can't find it. You can look on their web: http://www.fitnessrxmag.com/index.html I do have one small issue though. It seems there is...

Well you all certanily have me pumped to train myself. I think I can get the hubby to assist on those tougher lifting days too. I kinda feel free being on my own! I mentioned to one trainer about HIIT and he was like "what is that??" I said, you should know this, your a trainer. I think...

I would much rather train on my own. I don't have to worry about keeping up with someones schedule, vice versa. By looking at your avatar JJ, you give me hope I can train alone!

Oh, I am not entering in a show in September.....I WISH! I am going to watch. I need to do some research on Oly lifts. I am trying to get my husband to lift with me, just hard to get him to commit on a regular basis.

Okay! As always you ALL give great advice and I don't feel like you are feeding me a line of crap:) I am not sure how much mass I have gained. I am sure that is something the "trainers" should have told me?? My gut feeling is not to continue my training with them BUT I do not have a partner to...

Okay, I had a little talk with the owner of my gym about the service I was getting from his trainers. I told him I have been disappointed during my 10 of 12 week sessions. I have lost 4 lbs and 3% bf. I told the owner I have asked the trainers several times, if I should be increasing in...

I find that trainers (at least most) are for people who really don;t know what they are doing - I watch them when I am at the gym and they are not even showing how to do an exercise properly. Most also spend half their time talking to their clients witkowsd, I hear ya on that! You guys are...
