  1. What do y'all eat when cutting weight? I've been doing great this month, but getting kinda bored with the same foods so looking for some low fat meal options. Some of the main things I've been eating repeatedly is: Artic Char with crabmeat on top Wraps - sliced oven roasted chicken, baby Swiss, 1 slice pre cooked bacon, lite mayo, and whole weat tortillas (10 carbs, 0 fat) Rainbow roll such made with brown rice and RE,living about half the rice from each roll Red Snapper, pan seared in tablespoon olive oil Chicken Cobb salad w/ light Catalina Roasted pulled pork That's probably 90% of all my meals this month with some Icelandic yogurt, carrots and fruits for snacks
  2. How was that being a dick, I meant that its may not be for the full time serious workout people because it doesn't go into the type of intricate details that group may want. It's like saying the is for non advanced workout people, more beginner or mid level due to fairly basic tracking features. Not sure how that came across as an insult, but wasn't the intention, my apologies. I've actually been lurking and picking up some good info from this thread.
  3. For regular people not obsessed with lifting it could be an easy way to get healthier. I ended up purchasing a fuelband last night, so it should be here before weekend. I actually started using an app called Lose It which is free and after entering height and weight and target weight, it comes up with a target daily calorie intake and tracks your meals.http://www.loseit.com/ Now you might call it trendy or whatever, but when you actually start taking down your meals, you start to see things you didn't notice otherwise. I thought I was doing good loading up on fruit all day, but that is a lot of carbs that I don't always burn off depending on my workday. Also, I found a lot of hidden calories in how much salad dressing I used or assuming that because something is organic and healthy, doesn't mean it can't be loaded with calories, or sugar or carbs. Bottom line, using the Lose It app has been easy and it even comes with a barcode scanner, so I can just scan what I eat once and it saves it to my foods. I definitely recommend it to anyone that want to track their calories, carbs, etc. Also, you can manually input exercise into app and it will convert the activity to calories burned, but it also can interface with Fueldband and wirelessly track info. I don't have a set exercise period during the week, so I do what I can during day, but I was curious what my activity level actually is. Here is a video comparing the Fitbit and Fuelband from CNET. Really good real world review: http://cnettv.cnet.com/road-testing-nike-fuelband-fitbit-ultra/9742-1_53-50128018.html
  4. Just curious, anyone here use a fuel band from Nike? I want to track and raise my cardio and activity during week. There is a competition called the fitbit, but I already rules that out,
  5. Obviously I know shoes, but I also remember reading an article a few months ago. Use this flowchart from runners world to pick best shoe. If you actually are dealing with pain often, you can also try a show like Z-coil. I got a pair when dealing when plantar fasciitis Running shoes chart: http://rw.runnersworld.com/images/shoe-guides/spring-2013-shoe-guide.pdf Link to Z-coil shoes: http://www.zcoil.com/
  6. Thought I would share this here, more protein than Greek yogurt, less sugar, and it's thicker. I like it better, and I get it at whole foods.
