Coffee has high antioxidants and nutrients. It can be healthy minus the milk, sugar, artificial sweeteners, and cream.
Coffee at the coffee shop can add you 400 calories in one coffee. Ask for it unsweetened and then add your own stevia. Instead of sugar try organic maple syrup, stevia, or real full-fat organic cream, coconut milk, cinnamon, or organic unsweet cocoa powder for added flavor and sweetener. Black is always best. :P I think someone asked about this.. Coconut milk is loaded with super healthy saturated fats called medium chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are known to boost your immune system and your metabolism! Challenge for the weekend: Try a healthy alternative and something new with your coffee! Have a happy Friday the 13th healthies and a wonderful weekend! |

I caved. My co-worker brought gooey brownies to work yesterday. He sent an email that said "I brought brownies, they're on the buffet table, help yourself!", to which a succinctly written email reply was sent from me that read, "JERK!!"
I had one, and it was fabulous. Today I will pay for my transgression, but only after I have woken up properly. At the moment, I am procrastinating, while wearing black running shorts, black t-shirt, black warmup jacket, french lace socks, and legwarmers that have stripes that look like: ![]() Don't try to picture it, but if you do, you'll probably burn some extra calories with a good belly laughing session. I keep looking at myself in the mirror and grinning. I love my dorky side, and I am apparently easily amused. |

also easily amuzed Hope everyone is enjoying the spring's bounty. Strawberries for breakfast, I can eat them til I burst, I swear. Between those and the blueberries, I am done for. Note, both are organic. Because strawberries especially are like little sponges if there is anything around for it to absorb, it will. They are on that list of most dirty eats, which only means they are one of the most important to eat clean. Off my organic soap box~ I know I need to do some protein. Which also brings up the earlier posts about adequate protein intake and what is advisable. Everyone is different. I know that when I have a patient that is say, 600+ pounds, those calculations sort of go out the window. Critical thinking is a must, and engage one's common sense. Those are rules of thumbs, which may or may not be applicable to you for a myriad of reasons. I do love how complex the human animal is. Amazing, really! Now to enjoy more of the bounty of this good earth. Make some seriously good eats, which will include some of that heavenly Hatch Green Chile. And oddly enough for me, a sweet potato. Add whatever protein I reach for first and voila. Anyone else really happy about the spring time bounty? Eating seasonally makes this time of the year extra special for me. d'who can't wait for the Vidalia Onions to be in and cheap |

Heh...This morning, I'm trying to keep my calves warmed up, so pre-hike, I am wearing argyle legwarmers that pull up to mid-thigh. Next weekend, I am going to Saturday Market to enjoy the spring bounty, and then afterwards, attending a work related volunteer event cleaning up and replanting at Diary Creek. I ![]() |

3.5 ounces is not a lot of protein to begin with. Hell I've been known to eat a 12 oz steak for dinner. If I do your calculation I get less than 1 ounce of protein for someone that may weigh 200 lbs. Am I missing something? .036 x 200 = 7.2 grams, which equals .25 ounces.. ? Just wondering if I'm missing something from your post. For myself I will say eating 3-8 oz a day of bnls sknls chicken breast or grilled shrimp, certain fish, or lean beef steak is good. But that's just for me.. |

I signed up for WW online again. Like most people, I do better writing it all down and seeing it look back at me.
I'm still working on flattening my belly, so that'll be my focus.....my waist measurement. It's interesting to me how quickly I can turn off my interest in Oreos when I have to write that sh*t down, and they suck up so many of points!

i've been on WW since Tuesday, it's so freaking easy this can't be real. Writing it down is definitely a way to make me accountable. i've been walking so much more plus the nice weather is a great incentive. i won't do a gym but i will definitely make a path around these 200 acres. |
