If you're a foodie who likes Cooks Illustrated, then try "The Perfect Recipe for Losing Weight & Eating Great" by Pam Anderson. Pam Anderson is the former Executive Editor of Cooks Illustrated. She found herself 50 lbs. overweight from all her years as a chef and lost the weight through a...

Pretty much that, but sometimes I find I'm more satisfied if I have, say, 500 calories at dinner and then a lighter evening snack. Even though the calories work out to be the same, my feeling of satiety is better that way. I eat more than 1500 cals a day, though. The meals work out that way...

I've been using a Polar F4 (quite basic) and it was perfectly fine for tracking heart rate and calories burned. I just got a gift certificate to Dick's Sporting Goods so I treated myself to the FT40 which has a number of bells and whistles. But honestly, a basic model is all you really need...

I love the step DVDs and have a ton but I like to do some cardio every day. I can't do step daily as I'd blow out my knees in no time. I've got KPC and it's great but sometimes I just don't want to box. I've always loved Hi/Lo and would love to see either an all Hi/Lo DVD or a circuit-type...
