Thanks for all your info. I really appreciate it!! Kathy

Ok, I know it's been a while since I've posted, life here has been a bit crazy between school and the holidays. But I'm on my winter break right now, so I have a few minutes to think about other things. Well, I'm in the market for an Ipod. I have a shuffle, the old style. But I want a Nano...

I agree with what Kathryn said and others as well. It's really better to get your protein from a whole food source, you're body recognizes it much better. But if you aren't eating enough protein, less than 8 grams a day, than a supplement would help. But surprisingly enough you don't need as...

Happy Birthday Jillybean! Kathy

"You are what you eat" on the BBC channel at 3:00 central. Finally a show that focuses how to eat healthy in order to lose weight and, get this, be healthy. Yeah, I know! It's crazy, but good. LOL! Seriously though, I love this show. I would recommend that anyone wanting to learn how to...

I'm 20-11. Ok fine, 31 if you must. Kathy

I haven't tied this yet, but a woman told me to put "regrets only" after the RSVP. That way if people can't come they have to call you, but if they are going to make it you're already under the assumption that they are going to make it. But I hear ya on the RSVP thing, it drives my crazy. I...

Yup, I completely agree. Calories are energy, too much energy in, and you're body will store it for later use, no matter what form of food it comes in. Kathy

Well, as long as you aren't adding this on to a high calorie day with little exercise it will be ok. The main thing here is calories in vs calories out. Anyway, I don't have any recipe ideas for you, but if you go to gnc or a health food store their staff should be able to help you pick out...

Ok, I have been thinking about this for a while, so I went to the store and got the ingredients and decided to give it a try. 3/4 C. Brown rice (cooked) 1/2 tomato (raw) diced 1/4 C. black beans (I used organic canned only because cooking up your own takes all day long!!) But I made sure...

baby spinach, feta cheese, green apple, almond slices. Top with Newman's Own Raspberry Walnut Light dressing. Delicious! Kathy

Before you workout you should eat carb's. Then afterwards to help repair you muslce you should eat protein. Kathy

Ok, here is what I have been taught in College about fat loss and cardio. For the first 20 min of cardio, fairly easy breathing, you can talk fairly easily, you are burning glucose in your blood stream. You run out of that fairly easily. Then, as long as you aren't gasping for breath, your...

No diet is going to build muscle, working out builds muscle. Protein repairs your muscle that gets torn while you are working out (yes the burn you feel it actually small tears in the muscle), which is what builds the muscle. I would recommend a clean diet, lots of fruits, vegetables, and lean...

The only thing that you need to worry about are the heavy metals that can be found in the fish oil. Yes, they are even in the oil. Just give her lots of water today to try to flush it out. There is also a bit of vitamin A, c and E in them as well, just naturally occurring. But these are all...

As a vegetarian, you probably know this. But one of the best sources of protein out there are beans and lentils. Really you have a world of options out there for you. Granted there aren't that many precooked, frozen and prepared foods, but that is one of the reasons vegetarians are so...

Honest to god, my absolute dream job would be to train dolphins or Shamu. That would be darn cool. Kathy

Darn, you caught me! LOL! A couch workout...Not a bad idea...But no, Cahte probably wouldn't do something like that. She likes to hear the complaints of how much we hurt, and how tired we all are.}( :P Kathy

Yes it truely does. We were not made to eat 3 large meals a day. If you think about it we were hunters and gatherers at one point and that is how our bodies are supposed to digest food. In small portions many times through out the day. Scientists have actually done studies were they put two...

Yeah, I'm here and just fine. My brother probably missed it by 10 min, had he gotten off work a little earlier he might have been one of them victims. Kind of scary how many people were so close to being there. But very sad how many people were there. Oh, I live in Big Lake, MN Kathy
